Guest guest Posted August 9, 2002 Report Share Posted August 9, 2002 On my altar I have a figurine of the/a Goddess procured during my trip to India. I was told She is a Nagina or something like that. She has the body of a snake and above her head are 5 snakes heads. She holds out Her hands together and I believe She is holding a shell in them. I really love Her. I always thought that the Genesis story told of the displacement of the Mother Goddess, Her serpent knowledge and the divine Tree of Life. I think other interpretations are interesting, too. But what use is it if we don't get back to Her? Today She is my Goddess of Happiness, because I need Her to guide me to this elusive state and help me to live there in my heart. Surely She means for us to be happy, no matter how challenging this plane of existence is. I'm not looking for mindless bliss, just happiness; a consistent sense of how to head for that as though it were Home. Namaste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
