Sati and Shivan : my conclusion

[Guest guest]

In my conclusion, the whole story about Sati and Shivan is all about :

 

1) Conflict between the two world. The world of Brahmanism and

Ascetism. Sati in her role as the mediator, put an end to this

conflict.

 

2) Pollution. The earth being polluted by the "children". Even

in the attempt of trying to purify themselves ( as in Yagna ) they

still habour hatred, pride and arrogance. Sati in her role as the

preserver, creator, destroyer and symbolizes truth, put an end to

this hypocrisy in her "children". This is what happen when

one "burnt" the truth. Chaos and darkness precede.

 

3) Sancity of union/ marriage.

 

The story about the faithful wife sacrificing for the sake of her

husband, is a tiny fraction of the whole myth which has been

sensationalised to such an extent that it overshadow the true message

of the whole story.
