Lakshmi

Lakshmi, as we have just noticed, is the sakti or consort of Vishnu, the preservative power of the deity. The extensive sect of Vaishnava, or worshippers of Vishnu, esteem Lakshmi as mother of the world, and then call her Ada Maya; and such Vaishnavas as are saktas, that is, adorers of the supremacy of the female energy, worship her extensively as the type of the Eternal Being, and endow her with suitable attributes. She is represented by the poets and painters as of perfect beauty. Hindoo females are commonly named after her: and there are few in the long catalogue of their deities whose various names and functions are so frequently alluded to in conversation and writing, either on theogony, mythology, poetry or philosophy. Her terrestrial manifestations have been frequent, and her origin various. As Rhemba, the sea born goddess, she arose out of the fourteen gems from the ocean when churned by the good and evil beings for the amrita or beverage of immortality. She then assumes the character of Venus Marina, or Aphrodites of the Greeks, who, as Hesiod and Homer sing, arose from the sea, ascended to Olympus, and captivated all the gods. The production of Rhemba, Sri, or Lakshmi is thus described in the thirty-sixth section of the first book of Ramayana. “The gods, the asuras and the gandharvas, again agitating the sea, after a long time appeared the great goddess, inhabiting the lotus; clothed with superlative beauty, in the first bloom of youth, covered with ornaments, and bearing every auspicious sign; adorned with a crown, with bracelets on her arms, her jetty locks flowing in ringlets, and her body—which resembled burnished gold—adorned with ornaments of pearl. Thus was produced the goddess Padma or Sri, adored by the whole universe,[Pg 39] Padma by name. She took up her abode in the bosom of Padma-nabha, even of Heri,” that is, of Vishnu, of whom these are names. Sri, as this deity is often called, distinguished her more particularly as the goddess of fortune, the word meaning prosperity; but it is not given exclusively to Lakshmi. Other of her names are derived from the lotus, which is the emblem of female beauty, and especially applicable to this goddess. In images and pictures of her, which are very common in India, Lakshmi is generally represented as a mere woman; sometimes, however, four-armed; often holding a kamal or lotus, in an easy and elegant attitude, and always very handsome. With her lord, Vishnu, she is frequently seen on the serpent Sesha; he reposing, she in respectful attendance, while a lotus springing from Vishnu’s navel to the surface of the sea (for this scene is subaqueous) bears in its expanded calyx, Brahma, the creator of the world, about to perform the work of renovation. Sometimes she is seated with her lord on Garuda, or Superva, clearing the air, of which Vishnu is a personification. In Vishnu’s most splendid avatara, or incarnation of Krishna, she became manifested as Rukmein, or Radha, the most adored of the amorous deities, and mother of the god of love; here again corresponding with our popular Venus, the mother of Cupid. In the avatara of Rama, Lakshmi was his faithful spouse, in the form of Sita; in that of Narsingha she was Narsinhi, or Nrisinhi; when Varaha, Varahi; and as the Sakti of Narayana she is by her own sectaries called Narayni; and in most of the many incarnations of Vishnu she appears to have descended with him, frequently under his own celestial name: as his consort generally she is called Vaishnavi.  [39]

HistoryEdit

According to legend, after his return from a pilgrimage to Maharishi Jamdagni went to his hermitage at Malana. On his head he carried a basket filled with eighteen images of different gods. Crossing through Chanderkhani pass, he came upon a fierce storm. Struggling to stay on his feet, Maharishi Jamdagni’s basket was thrown from his head, scattering the images to many distant places. Hill people, finding these images saw them take shape or form as Gods, and began to worship them. Legend has it that deity worship began in the Kullu Valley.

In the 16th Century, Raja Jagat Singh ruled over the prosperous and beautiful kingdom of Kullu. As the ruler, the Raja came to know of a peasant by the name of Durgadatta who apparently possessed many beautiful pearls. The Raja thought he should have these treasured pearls, even though the only pearls Durgadatta had were pearls of Knowledge. But the Raja in his greed ordered Durgadatta to hand over his pearls or be hanged. Knowing of his inevitable fate at the hands of the king, Durgadatta threw himself on the fire and cursed the king, “Whenever you eat, your rice will appear as worms, and water will appear as blood”. Doomed by his fate, the Raja sought solace and searched out advice from a Brahmin. The Holy man told him that in order to eradicate the curse, he must retrieve the deity of Ragunath from Raam’skingdom. Desperate, the king sent a Brahmin to Ayodya. One fine day the Brahmin stole the deity and set out on his journey back to Kullu. The people of Ayodya, finding their beloved Ragunath missing, set out in search of the Kullu Brahmin. On the banks of the Saryu river, they approached the Brahmin and asked him why he had taken Ragunath ji. The Brahmin recounted the story of the Kullu king. The people of Ayodya attempted to lift Ragunath, but their deity became incredibly heavy when headed back towards Ayodya, and became very light when headed to Kullu. On reaching Kullu Ragunath was installed as the reigning deity of the Kullu kingdom. After installing the deity of Ragunath, Raja Jagat Singh drank the Charan-Amrit of the deity and the curse was lifted. Jagat Singh became Lord Ragunath’s regent. This legend is connected with the Dussehra at Kullu. This deity is taken in a Ratha to the Dussehra.

Dussehra 2017: 5 Places That Celebrate The Victory of Good Over Evil Differently

The legends may vary but the message behind the Vijayadashmi celebration remains the ‘victory of good over evil.’

Dussehra or Vijayadashmi falls on the tenth day of Navratri. The sky-high effigies of Ravana, Kumbhkarana and Meghnada are set of fire to celebrate Lord Rama’s victory over asura king Ravana on this day. Vijayadashmi also commemorates the victory of Goddess Durga over Mahishasur. The legends may vary but the message behind the Vijayadashmi celebration remains the ‘victory of good over evil.’

Let us take you through 5 places in India that celebrate this day with great fervor in the most diverse ways:

1. Mysore 

For over 400 years, the Mysore Dasara has been celebrated with great pomp and show. Mysuru got its name from Mahishasura – the demon killed by Goddess Chamundeshwari on the tenth day of the Navratri Festival – Vijayadashmi. 

The key attractions of Mysore Dasara are the marvelously lit Mysore Palace, elephant ride, military parades and various cultural shows. 2. West BengalThe people of West Bengal, celebrate the victory of Maa Durga over Mahishasura with Durga puja. The day is marked by processions where Durga idols are carried to river or ocean and the devotees bid farewell to the Goddess. During Durga Puja elaborate pandals are constructed where people offer prayers, enjoy scrumptious bhojs and perform a special dance known as dhunuchi.3. KulluKullu Dussehra is yet another most-sought after Dussehra celebration in India. However, instead of burning the effigies of Ravana, Kumbhkarana and Meghnada, the locals perform Lanka-Dahan by burning a consortium of dry leaves and twigs. In rest of the country, Dussehra marks the end of celebration of Navratri, but in Kullu the festivities begin with Dussehra. The main attractions of Kullu Dussehra are the dances performed on the beats of dhadaks and notes of Narsingha trumpets.4. ChennaiThe states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh celebrate the festival with Bommai Kolus – wherein colorful dolls are displayed along with idols of Goddess Laxmi, Saraswati and Parvati. Kalasa Ahvanam marks the first day and Vijyadashmi concludes the festival. 5. VaranasiThe Ram Lila at Varanasi is rejoiced by thousands of viewers every year. Special sets of Ayodhya, Lanka and Ashok Vatika are constructed for Ram Lila and the characters enact Ramayana in the most unique way.

HistoryEdit

According to legend, after his return from a pilgrimage to Maharishi Jamdagni went to his hermitage at Malana. On his head he carried a basket filled with eighteen images of different gods. Crossing through Chanderkhani pass, he came upon a fierce storm. Struggling to stay on his feet, Maharishi Jamdagni’s basket was thrown from his head, scattering the images to many distant places. Hill people, finding these images saw them take shape or form as Gods, and began to worship them. Legend has it that deity worship began in the Kullu Valley.

In the 16th Century, Raja Jagat Singh ruled over the prosperous and beautiful kingdom of Kullu. As the ruler, the Raja came to know of a peasant by the name of Durgadatta who apparently possessed many beautiful pearls. The Raja thought he should have these treasured pearls, even though the only pearls Durgadatta had were pearls of Knowledge. But the Raja in his greed ordered Durgadatta to hand over his pearls or be hanged. Knowing of his inevitable fate at the hands of the king, Durgadatta threw himself on the fire and cursed the king, “Whenever you eat, your rice will appear as worms, and water will appear as blood”. Doomed by his fate, the Raja sought solace and searched out advice from a Brahmin. The Holy man told him that in order to eradicate the curse, he must retrieve the deity of Ragunath from Raam’skingdom. Desperate, the king sent a Brahmin to Ayodya. One fine day the Brahmin stole the deity and set out on his journey back to Kullu. The people of Ayodya, finding their beloved Ragunath missing, set out in search of the Kullu Brahmin. On the banks of the Saryu river, they approached the Brahmin and asked him why he had taken Ragunath ji. The Brahmin recounted the story of the Kullu king. The people of Ayodya attempted to lift Ragunath, but their deity became incredibly heavy when headed back towards Ayodya, and became very light when headed to Kullu. On reaching Kullu Ragunath was installed as the reigning deity of the Kullu kingdom. After installing the deity of Ragunath, Raja Jagat Singh drank the Charan-Amrit of the deity and the curse was lifted. Jagat Singh became Lord Ragunath’s regent. This legend is connected with the Dussehra at Kullu. This deity is taken in a Ratha to the Dussehra.

Dussehra 2017: 5 Places That Celebrate The Victory of Good Over Evil Differently

The legends may vary but the message behind the Vijayadashmi celebration remains the ‘victory of good over evil.’

Dussehra or Vijayadashmi falls on the tenth day of Navratri. The sky-high effigies of Ravana, Kumbhkarana and Meghnada are set of fire to celebrate Lord Rama’s victory over asura king Ravana on this day. Vijayadashmi also commemorates the victory of Goddess Durga over Mahishasur. The legends may vary but the message behind the Vijayadashmi celebration remains the ‘victory of good over evil.’

Let us take you through 5 places in India that celebrate this day with great fervor in the most diverse ways:

1. Mysore

The key attractions of Mysore Dasara are the marvelously lit Mysore Palace, elephant ride, military parades and various cultural shows. 2. West BengalThe people of West Bengal, celebrate the victory of Maa Durga over Mahishasura with Durga puja.

KulluKullu Dussehra is yet another most-sought after Dussehra celebration in India. However, instead of burning the effigies of Ravana, Kumbhkarana and Meghnada, the locals perform Lanka-Dahan by burning a consortium of dry leaves and twigs. In rest of the country, Dussehra marks the end of celebration of Navratri, but in Kullu the festivities begin with Dussehra. The main attractions of Kullu Dussehra are the dances performed on the beats of dhadaks and notes of Narsingha trumpets.4. ChennaiThe states of Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and Andhra Pradesh celebrate the festival with Bommai Kolus – wherein colorful dolls are displayed along with idols of Goddess Laxmi, Saraswati and Parvati. Kalasa Ahvanam marks the first day and Vijyadashmi concludes the festival. 5. VaranasiThe Ram Lila at Varanasi is rejoiced by thousands of viewers every year. Special sets of Ayodhya, Lanka and Ashok Vatika are constructed for Ram Lila and the characters enact Ramayana in the most unique way.
