Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 Dear Shaktas, Given that Hari(Vishnu) occupies the left half of the body of Hara (Shiva)- just like Shakti, and that Vishnu's Avatar Krishna is sometimes said to be a manifestation of the Goddess(Lalita/Kali), is it true that Bhagavan Vishnu is a form of Bhagavati Devi? Yours, Robert. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 hmmm.. i don't think this is written in any of the scripture... if there is a belief that it is so .. it could be on the tribal or village level .... , "drekiuk" <drekiuk> wrote: > > Dear Shaktas, > > Given that Hari(Vishnu) occupies the left half of the body of Hara > (Shiva)- just like Shakti, and that Vishnu's Avatar Krishna is > sometimes said to be a manifestation of the Goddess(Lalita/Kali), is > it true that Bhagavan Vishnu is a form of Bhagavati Devi? > > Yours, > Robert.

Guest guest Posted November 9, 2003 Report Share Posted November 9, 2003 93 ....in one Purana - forgot the name - Vishnu tells that Devi has 4 forms, of which Vishnu himself is the last. As Devi, Vishnu is connected with left current, iDA-nADI... Krishna is usually identified with Kali [in Mundamala, Todala, Tarabhaktirahasyadipika and Kokilarnava tantras and in Tara-rahasya], Mahabhagavata-purana even states that Krishna is Kali and Radha is Siva. , "drekiuk" <drekiuk> wrote: > > Dear Shaktas, > > Given that Hari(Vishnu) occupies the left half of the body of Hara > (Shiva)- just like Shakti, and that Vishnu's Avatar Krishna is > sometimes said to be a manifestation of the Goddess(Lalita/Kali), is > it true that Bhagavan Vishnu is a form of Bhagavati Devi? > > Yours, > Robert.
