Recently I saw one old movie about Shani (Saturn), "Surya Putra Shani", i really enjoyed it. This is about how Saturn became who He is today and His encounters with Surya, Shiva, Laxmi and others. Once he gets in argument with Laxmi who is better and eventually Narad muni is consulted who after careful 'walking' tests comments that Saturn looks good when He is leaving and Laxmi looks good when She is coming. was just fyi Om Amriteshwariye Namah Ammachi, kalipadma@j... wrote: > > One evening, as he was closing his shop, a Vaishya (Hindu of the Merchant > caste) overheard an argument.
