Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Namste to all, Stop sperading lie like this ; Shiva was a Dravidian king who married Sati, a daughter of an Aryan ruler. Sati’s father, Daksha disapproved of their union. After the wedding, at a yagna (sacrifice), being performed by Daksha. Shiva was ignored by his father in law and the guests. Be careful there is no scriptural reference to Siva being Dravidian and Sati being Aryan in scripture . You got to learn to read the actual scripture themselves. The concept of Aryan and Dravidian itself is being refuted in India right now !! (Done by western history book writers) Sati, who could not bear this humiliation of her husband, jumped into the sacrificial fire and became the first Sati (a tradition where women would burn themselves on their husband's funeral pyres). You got it wrong once again .Please read scripture - Kalika Purana .She never did jump but sat into meditation. The tradition of sutees and Sati Ma immolation has no connection whatsoever Once again you got to stop just copying and pasting work !!! When Shiva collected her ashes, he could only express his deep pain and grief through a violent dance called the Tandav. Terrifying all creation he danced around the earth seven times. Unable to console Shiva, the Gods resolved they would revive Sati. Wrong once again Lord Shiva carried her body not her ash !!!They did not resolve to revive Sati but resolved to stop his tandavic dance Sati was reborn as Parvati, daughter of King Himavat who lived in the Himalayas. Wrong assumption once again. Parvathi was born to wake Shiva from his meditation Shiva had renounced the world and in Mount Kailash he began a hard penance. Immersed in meditation, Shiva was immune to the presence of Parvati (daughter of the mountains). Ok this is in line with scriptures Parvati asked Madan/Kama the God of love for help. It is not Parvathi but the devas who request help to Brahma who in turn asked Kamadeva He told her to dance in front of Shiva. While Parvati danced, Madan shot an arrow laced by flowers at Shiva, whose penance broke. When Shiva opened his eyes Parvati was his first vision. Shiva too began to dance with Parvati and as the gods watched the couple in bliss, their fears were laid to rest. Which scripture said so ??? Parvati lured Shiva into marriage and away from asceticism. He became a householder and she became his shakti, the creative force of the cosmos. In Mount Kailash their ardour was intense, the gods were worried about the child who would be born from this union. Shiva’s seed dropped on the banks of the Ganga (the river who flows through his matted hair). This is the lingam that is worshipped all over India. Their first child was Kartikeya or Subramanya. Kartikeya would fight the demon Taraka rescue the world and then return to Parvati and Shiva. Which scripture said Shiva semen became lingam ??? Parvati’s second child was Ganesha. Legends say his birth was determined by Parvati's desire for privacy. She wanted to bathe and created a son from the sweat of her body. She asked Ganesha to guard the door. When Shiva returned to their living area, Ganesha confronted him. Shiva who was unaccustomed to being blocked at his doorstep fought Ganesha and beheaded him. When Parvati saw her son lying beheaded, she was furious and demanded Ganesha be brought back to life. Shiva sent his hordes to bring back the first head of an animal who was sleeping with his head to the North. They brought back the head of Airavat, Lord Indra’s elephant. Ganesha was given primary status as a god and Parvati was appeased. Parvati is the only female deity, who like Vishnu has the ability to change her form. She appears in incarnations as Durga and Lakshmi mso-bidi-font-size: 24.0pt">. As Parvati she is soft, gentle and sattvic. As Durga she becomes a powerful warrior, and as Kali a bloodthirsty Goddess who can even demand sacrificial killings Oh for goodness sake . She was never changing form!!!! if you read Chandi Path or Devi Mahatmayam then you would realize that Mahamaya is beyond all the forms and She manifest herself from within Parvathi and when did Kali Ma tell anybody She is blood thirsty ????????? This is your interpretation that does not have any scriptural backing as well . If you have read Devi Mahatmaya and Kalika Purana you would realize she never did say She is thirsty for blood!!!

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 Hello, Do not believe what you read on the Internet. Misinformation! According to some web sites the Mason-Dixon line is the line between the north & south during the American civil war. Not. Let us not nit-pick details. We all want a better understanding of what's out there, I'm sure what was spoken a hundred generations ago is different then what was finally been printed. If someone has a different idea, fine, insulting each other is not the way. Fighting over good makes little sense.

She wanted to bathe and created a son from the sweat of her body. She asked Ganesha to guard the door. When Shiva returned to their living area, Ganesha confronted him. Shiva who was unaccustomed to being blocked at his doorstep fought Ganesha and beheaded him. When Parvati saw her son lying beheaded, she was furious and demanded Ganesha be brought back to life. Shiva sent his hordes to bring back the first head of an animal who was sleeping with his head to the North. They brought back the head of Airavat, Lord Indra’s elephant. Ganesha was given primary status as a god and Parvati was appeased. Parvati is the only female deity, who like Vishnu has the ability to change her form. She appears in incarnations as Durga and Lakshmi. As Parvati she is soft, gentle and sattvic. As Durga she becomes a powerful warrior, and as Kali a bloodthirsty Goddess who can even demand sacrificial killings Mail is new and improved - Check it out!
