Guest guest Posted November 12, 2003 Report Share Posted November 12, 2003 I like to know more about (the mythologies of) Sati and Parvati. Sati's father was Daksha, who was the father of Parvati? Who were the mothers of Sati and Parvati? Are there any sisters, childhood friends or female servants of Sati whose names are mentioned in the scriptures? What about Parvati's sisters, childhood friends and female servants? When Sati married Shiva, was she accompanied by one of her sisters or by female servants from her maternal family? What about Parvati? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted November 14, 2003 Report Share Posted November 14, 2003 Qn- Who were the mothers of Sati and Parvati? Ans- Sati's mother's name was Sukanya and Parvati's mother was Maina (Markadey Purana) I only know that Parvati had a sister named Ganga and a brother named Mainak (ibid) I wonder why you wish to know all this ?

Guest guest Posted November 16, 2003 Report Share Posted November 16, 2003 hello peppermint, Mythology is just symbolic mysticism. There are stories and they had definite purpose when they were composed. Now, if anyone want's to know about mythological charachers, one must look into encyclopaedias, not over the net. I had told you what I knew, I cant say more. For questions concerning spiritual phenomenon, traits, schools you are welcome. But I suggest you to consult some authenticated books for the information you are seeking. "Puranic Encyclopaedia" by Dr. Kane is most recommended. love to you and my gp fellows Satish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
