[ No sound announced this presence. No light marked its arrival. Because sound and light were effects, not causes. ]
[ Unseen, unbounded, undeniable. Not a being. Not a god. Not awareness as mortals defined it. ]
[ It was the ground state from which awareness itself became possible. ]

[ Adi Shakti stirred. The first motion within the unmoving. The force that allowed unity to become many, and silence to permit form. ]
[ Thus, existence did not begin with form. It began with permission of distinction. ]
[ And with that, the eternal way of life, Sanatan Dharma, started its motion.]

Golden syllables burned across the clouds, ancient and resonant. Space folded into concentric circles, each layer rotating slowly like a cosmic yantra (geometrical diagram).
A crack opened at the center.
