Power Of God
NEVER শক্তি. Bengal is the historic heartland of Shaktism (Durga and Kali worship centered in Kolkata and across the region), so শক্তি carries an unusually strong goddess-power association here, stronger than in most other Indian languages. সামর্থ্য (capacity/ability) avoids that association entirely.
