I found this on a YouTube suggestion.

Doesn't it look like Maa Lakshmi and Maa Mohini?

Ok Stubby, (never leaving that one yahh)

Remember that one time on a post I made some modern AU? With Flower shop owner Vasant and Vishnu as a househusband married to businesswoman Lakshmi (that detail is unimportant for this but that's my favourite detail so I will mention it every single time hehe -thats just my obsession with girlboss x malewife ships T_T)

So, I was watching a reel on Instagram about betraying your sabzi wale bhaiya 💀 (summary- the girl bought veggies from another bhaiya so og bhaiya got betrayed [that's common occurrence trust me])

So me came up with awesome headcanon because I had too...

What if similarly Vishnu one day buys some flowers from someone else.... (DON'T BLAME HIM!! THE FLOWERS JUST LOOKED REALLYY GOOD AND HE COULDN'T STOP HIMSELF) and while he was getting back home, Vasant was waiting for at Vaikunth (that's their house's name lmaoo)

But poor Vasant got betrayed by his ultimate flower buddy and ran away (mind you very dramatically) while pretending it was okay.... (What am I doing with my life writing soap operas or what 😭) He was heartbroken!!!

Now what happens next?

P.S. yes I am a practicing Hindu and anybody is very welcome to ask me any type of questions they may have, I will try my best to answer :)

OH YEAH I SAW THAT REEL TOO EEEEEE SHSJSKSJS THIS IS SO REAL

Vishnu stands still, thinking of the utter blunder he has committed.

Vasant is gone from his shop. Will he ever come back? Or will the stall stand still till all the flowers die out?

Vishnu blessed the flowers with eternal nourishment just in case.

Now, he must find his beloved florist. He makes a dash towards the direction Vasant went in.

He looks around to see if he's sitting somewhere in his usual sad fetal position, but he was nowhere to be seen.

Then, he reaches his home, and he gets a strange feeling about a presence.

He makes his way into the house-

"ARE YOU FOR REAL?"

Vishnu stares at his fuming red wife for a hot minute. Beside her is a teary-eyed Vasant, hugging her tight as if she's his mother.

"Please, I can explain-"

"OH YOU BETTER."

To be continued....

[krishna-priyatama]

I just love this picture of Shri Lakshmi-Narayan I found on Pinterest. Like Maa Lakshmi is standing all prim , proper and serious like the Supreme Goddess she is and then we have our beloved Lord Narayan just being like ' That's my wife , ladies and gentlemen !! My beautiful , rich and powerful girlboss of a wife !! I love her just so much !!! '

I can just imagine the conversation going on over here like :

Maa Lakshmi : Nath , we are standing here for a serious picture. Can you stand properly for like two minutes ?? 😮‍💨😮‍💨

Lord Narayan : No would do , Priye 🤭🤭 I just want to show the world how much I love my gorgeous wife , now is that a bad thing ? 🌝🌝

Maa Lakshmi : I give up 😭😭

Many "feminists" take offense because Maata Lakshmi is seen massaging Lord Vishnu's feet

What they do not see-

(Shree Krishna worshipping Shreemati Radharani's feet)

A Moment with the Mothers :

Hiranyavarna

It has always seemed that I am not built for the corporate life. I sit in the office shivering in the cold air conditioned room. The air seems so synthetic. I can see the sky from the large windows, the brilliant clouds painting the sky with so many colours, the birds....I feel trapped. The screen burns my eyes, the fear of failing eats me up. I have dreams to lead a creative life with the love of my life. The corporate life is a stepping stone for that dream life some day. The fear of the dream shattering keeps pulling me down with mind-numbing anxiety. I want to run away...far far away.

I return home, exhausted, after a day in the office. My bag is heavy, hair plastered on my forehead, I feel some deep sadness in my heart, a longing for my freedom. I sit on the bed crying. I know I have privileges but I cannot help feeling how I am feeling.

A soft scent of incense wafts into the room. There is a warm golden glow behind the door. I wipe my tears and open it. I walk into a cozy little hut. I am greeted by a man with a beak-like nose and a familiarity that I cannot explain. It feels like we have been siblings for so long.

'Kire? Etokkhone eli?' (1) He asked me. 'Meye elo naki?' (2) A voice sweeter than honey called out from another room. A woman walked out wiping her hands on the anchol (3) of her saree. A golden glow emanated from her fair skin. She had a heart shaped face radiant like a comforting winter sun. Her lips were the colour of fresh rose petals. She was dressed in a soft pink taant saree with intricate golden borders. Delicate gold jewelleries adorned her body. It seemed as though she was the one for whom solah shringar was made. Her alta stained feet looked like fresh buds of lotus. Her anklets chimed with every steps sending waves of joy each time.

She looked at me and smiled the warmest smile. Her eyes beheld me with the love of a mother who is looking at her child tucked into bed happily and peacefully. 'Hyan re bhaat bere rekhechhi toh...chol...khabi na naki?' (4) She held my hand and led to me to the other room where she had prepared somefood for me. Khichudi and bhaja. It tasted like the first time I had tasted puja bhog. I could not help my tears. I finished every bit of food on that plate. She stood up and walked up to me.

She held me close to her, occasionally wiping my tears. I cried my heart out. She then took me to a bedroom dimly lit only with her glow. 'Ne ghumiye por toh shona meyer moto,' (5) she said smilingly. I laid down and she sat beside me stroking my head. I shift my position to lay my head on her lap. She lets out a loving giggle. There is such a beautiful sense of peace. This is where I belong.

As if hearing my thoughts, she tells me this is where I actually do belong. This is where I can return to anytime. It is not silly to have dreams. It is not silly to be scared of that dream shattering. But we must carry one. She resides in that dream which leads to a happy honest life. Money is not something that should govern life. But it is a blessing from her that lets our spirituality and principles govern our lives efficiently. We often face a bumpy stretch of road. But we must not give up. She is there holding our hands and waiting with food after a tiring time. Vairagya is not everything that fulfills a person. Sometimes the smiling faces of our loved ones are the biggest peace before we attain moksha. In fact it is a stepping stone for the same. We must seek out simple joys and comforts which leaves our hearts feeling warm. Only then can we strive for knowledge and wealth. The perilous road is unavoidable but stopping for a while to look at a pretty wildflower does not deters from our path. In fact it fills us with more motivation and bhakti. Life should be a balance of gyan, samsaar and adhyatma.

I clutch the corner of her anchol tightly. She laughs ever so sweetly and plants a loving kiss on the top of my head. The golden glow fades and I wake up clutching my pillow. My mother is calling me for dinner. My room smells of incense and there is a pink cotton thread on my pillow.

(1) - You came so late? (2) - Is daughter home? (3) - pallu of a saree (4) - I have laid the table for you to eat...won't you eat? (5) - Go to sleep like a good girl. ( Shona literally translates to gold and is a term of endearment )

Usha's tale

Lakshmi

It's Diwali today. Maa got me a beautiful blue-pink lehenga which also sports peacock feather designs on it. I look so pretty! I whisper at myself in the mirror, admiring the lehenga, my golden bangles and the small bindi on my forehead. Lakshmi pooja will begin in the next fifteen minutes. I hear my mother's bangles rustle as she arranges the pooja thali with diyas, sweets and laal tika. Papa is decorating the small mandir with flowers and my brother as usual is sitting on the sofa being utterly clueless about everything.

But I look so good. I feel like Radha from that Krishna cartoon on Cartoon Network. Blushing, I take one last look at myself before heading for pooja, my mind busy thinking about that cute Krishna cartoon I watch obsessively every weekend. Don't tell my mother, okay? I wrote a song for Krishna. Will you read?

Maa is reading Lakshmi stuti now. My brother is staring at the ladoo bowl. Papa is ringing the bell and I well -- I kept my eyes open all the time. I want to see Lakshmi enter my house. If I close my eyes, then I will miss her arrival. Who knows she might share ladoos with me from the thali?

My bangles jingle and somehow my dupatta gets stuck on the shiny stones. I look at the window pane to fix the dupatta and the bangles in case I jerk too hard and tear my pretty dupatta. That's when I see a mist form over my reflection. Rubbing my eyes, I squint to check if I was hallucinating or it really happened.

It was all real! The hazy mist cleared and with the reflection stood the Goddess of Wealth, Lakshmi. I knew her from that cartoon and a TV show after I secretly peeped behind a wall to catch a glimpse of the scene. Don't tell Maa that due to me trying to catch glimpse of the scene on TV, I got a sum wrong.

Dressed in a richly embroidered saree in shades of red and pink, the goddess stood right there in front. She had a beautiful smile which made me grin. She doesn't look as old as the badi didis who are working in an office. She appears the same age as me. I love her saree and say, "Hi, Lakshmi! Your saree is so beautiful." The goddess replies, "Thank you sakhi! Your dress looks lovely too. It even has peacock feathers, my favourite."

I am twenty now. As a very young girl, I thought of the goddess as my dear friend. She is nature, the ultimate wealth of this world, yours and mine. She is nurturing, loving and kind. For days, I felt low and my sparkle dimmed, she, my dear goddess turned friend stood by my side and she will always be.

Right sakhi??

[zeherili-ankhein]

That one RadhaKrishna serial made Lakshmi jealous of Mohini and thinking she might steal her husband because those idiots were too scared to portray this divine sapphic couple

As if Lakshmi wouldn't recognize her wife in a heartbeat like who you kidding yall

Lmao that serial is honestly so bad I cry

I didn't see those episodes but WTF 😭😭😭 WHY WOULD LAKSHMI BE JEALOUS OF MOHINI AJDHDBDHDD

Also Lakshmi would be the first one to know it's her wife if anything that's love

And they should have atleast shown her acting all cool with Mohini if they are so afraid of Sapphic romance

I don't think any homophobic uncle aunty would have mind that bruhhh

Also they are cowards they'll never ever be able to do the goodness of MohiniChanchala 😔😔😔😔😔

Because Mohini and Lakshmi doesn't wanna get portrayed by this stupid people (they told me ik)
