vanamali Posted August 16, 2004 Report Share Posted August 16, 2004 The Deity of Earth is Goddess Bhu devi/ Bhumi Mata. Her husband is Sriman Narayana, and She is the best friend of Sri devi/Mother Lakshmi. When the Lord is Krishna, Bhudevi is Satyabhama, Sridevi is Rukmini When the Lord is Ramachandra, Bhudevi is Vedavati, Sridevi is Janaki (Sita) When the Lord is Venkateshwara, Bhudevi is Padmavati, Sridevi is Kamalavati When the Lord is Gauraanga, Bhudevi is Srimati Vishnupriya, Sridevi is Srimati Lakshmipriya Bhudevi is the consort of Lord Varaha Bhudevi is also the Tamil alwar/saint Andal (Goda devi) and composed Tiruppavai and Nacciyar Thirumozhi in praise of the Lord (Sridevi in pink, Bhudevi in Green!)

merkaba Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 Why does lord krsna like butter so much? He did get in trouble when he stole butter so whats the deal with that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanamali Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 Oh you have asked such a lovely question! Butter is love! Baby Krishna steals the butter of the elder gopis, His mother, etc. His naughty actions infuriate them, but also endears Him to their hearts. Krishna's theft of butter is His charm, which takes love from your heart whether you desire to give it or not! The youthful Krishna also steals butter from the gopi lasses, whose hearts He has also stolen with His charm. Though they may be married to others (just as we are attached to the material world through our relationships) yet when Krishna steals their butter (love) though outwardly piqued, inwardly their hearts melt like... well /images/graemlins/smile.gif... and so they are left with no choice but to take shelter of His lotus feet, just as we are compelled to do!

merkaba Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 how do I offer butter to him? Do I eat it? Put it somewhere special? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanamali Posted August 17, 2004 Report Share Posted August 17, 2004 if you like to offer butter for Him to eat, please offer like you offer any other food to Krishna. Most simple way is to put it on the altar before His statue or picture and if you don't know sanskrit, yeah just chant His names or even you can just simply say "Please enjoy, Bhagavan!" Then afterwards you can partake of the remnants as prasad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
