| Shakti Worship and Shakta Songs: The
Socio-Historical Commitment of the Eighteenth Century Arindam Adhikari, Assistant Professor, Mankar College, Mankar, Purba Bardhaman, West Bengal, India. | |
The unstable political situation of the eighteenth century questioned the existence of human
life. In the rules and oppression of East India Company, people started worshiping Shakti.
The early Middle Ages of Bengali literature the power of God was vindictive. They collect
their worship in forcefully from the people. In eighteenth century, times have changed. Over
the time, people's ideas about God have changed. Bharatchandra has brought the new form
of God in front of people in his poetry ‘Annada Mangal’. In that environment, some people
adopted the goddess as form of mother or daughter or friend. Shakta Poet Ramprashad Sen
adopted God Kali as her mother, in some time daughter or Supreme power of Universe.
When people feel tired of his life, they want to take shelter of peace in the God Shakti as a
child in his mother. Different land policies of foreign rulers in this century creat a class of
new zamindars. They have no relation with the land. These zamindars and their related
Naib-Gomstas started worshiping the Kali form of Adisakti and worshiping Shakti in their
own domain. Thus the society of this century adopted Shakt Sadhana in a new form outside
of Mangalkavya. | |
