#Parvathy

[indizombie]

Parvathy is struggling to establish her own identity and existence since the death of her husband. She has been strong-armed out of her family home so a new block of high-rise apartments can be constructed on the land where she currently lives. With all paperwork in her deceased husband’s name, Parvathy has no legal way to prove that the house she’s currently living in actually belongs to her, and is on the verge of becoming homeless. “Class is a privilege reserved for the privileged,” boasts the tagline of the builders ready to demolish Parvathy’s home. Kapadia articulates an uncomfortable truth: that the economic success story of Modi’s India—with industrialists Adani and Ambani as its self-proclaimed poster boys—is built upon the displacement and disenfranchisement of thousands of underprivileged, routinely exploited undocumented migrant workers like Parvathy.

Heyya Guys 👋

Today I am going to tell you about some 'Local gods' of Kerala (my homeland)

vishnumaya chaathan

Vishnumaya chaathan is the god of magic. Born to Shiva and koolivaka ( and avatar of Devi parvathi) , he is the youngest son of Lord Shiva after Ayyappan, soo he is the Lil guy of our Kailash family!!

Vishnumaya chaathan, is also mischevious in nature , he loves his devotees soo much and is also very protective of him.

He rides a Buffalo 🐃 (his favourite animal by the way)

And also has a stick in his hand. So...let's Know his story.

Story ✨

So one day Kirathan ( the hunter avatar of Lord Shiva) , was hunting and he saw a beautiful women, she is none other than Koolivaka , Kirathan instantly Fell in love with her and desired to Marry her , and he revealed that .

*for an extra note : this Koolivaka is not Parvathy, Koolivaka was actually a reincarnation of a sevika of Parvati, who was cursed* *Please Don't kill me for showing Shiva as a lover boy , but this is what actually happened*

Koolivaka was really nervous, as she knew he is none other than Shiva himself. But she accepted the proposal. Kirathan was very happy, and he went away for hunting.

Koolivaka was really Nervous , She didn't knew what to do , and then she got an Idea..she prayed to Devi Parvathi. Parvati appeared in front of her , and asks Koolivaka the matter . Koolivaka revealed the incidents. Parvathi became very pleased with her innocence, and she told Koolivaka Not to worry , and she herself will take the form of Koolivaka and will Marry Kirathan. Koolivaka was also happy.

And then Devi parvathi, Turned into Koolivaka's Form and Married Kirathan. And Kirathan and Koolivaka (Parvathy) had a Son.

Parvati gave The baby boy to Koolivaka to raise . And went back to Kailash.

Vishnumaya realises ✨

After many years Vishnumaya grown to a handsome teenager, He had lotus shaped eyes, black wavy hair , He loved to wear black Angavastram. Vishnumaya spent his childhood in the jungle , he loves to play an Instrument Called 'Eezara' ( a string instrument) , and loved to ride buffaloes.

After a long day , Vishnumaya came back to his little house ,and saw His mother Koolivaka lost in her thoughts, when he asked her what had happened, she revealed that He is actually the son of Lord Shiva and Parvati. Vishnumaya was shocked at the revelation, but He gave a smile and Said to Koolivaka that She will always remain as his Mother. Now Vishnumaya, had a wish...To visit Kailash and meet his REAL PARENTS.

A visit to Kailash 🏔️

Koolivaka Agreed to Vishnumaya's demand and they started leaving to the Himalayas, Several Days passed , Vishnumaya and his Mother Koolivaka , walked and walked through the stony path of the forest , the grainy and dry sands of the Desert.and finally they reached the Destination. But ..they had a problem.

Thus Named ✨❤️

Vishnumaya saw Nandi , and he knew that Nandi won't allow any Strangers to Kailash, Koolivaka nervously looked at Vishnumaya . And He got an Idea. He used his Maya (illution) and turned himself into the form of Lord Vishnu. He then walked to Nandi , and said that he had come to see Mahadev for an important reason. Nandi allowed Vishnumaya and Koolivaka inside kailash. And Vishnumaya returned to his original form. Parvati saw Vishnumaya and Hugged him, she showered her motherly affection on him. Shiva also saw him , He also showered his fatherly affection on him . Shiva said that He will be named as VISHNUMAYA , as he assumed the form of Vishnu with his Maya. Shiva was extremely protective of Vishnumaya. Shiva then told that Vishnumaya will have to stay in kailash for an Important job...

What will be the Reason??

to be continued....

*this author is actually a worshipper of Vishnumaya 😁*

The Hittites practiced sacred prostitution as part of a cult of deities, including the worship of a mated pair of deities, a bull god and a lion goddess

..akin to Shiva’s bull & Parvati’s lion?

Neurocozy:

Term coined by Parvathi Manojkumar Nair on 3rd May 2023. It means, a condition/ situation/ space or thing that neurodivergent people find comforting or enjoyable.

It's basically something that makes their brains 'purr' in delight and contentment.

Lord Shiva and Shakthi

[philosohappy]

Paradoxical. Nonsense. To live upside-down. Being neither day or night, but between. It’s not for everybody.

It’s about Ulat. And divine madness. And all that is beyond words. 

I feel it all so deeply, in my heart, like intense unconditional love. When I hear beings like Parvathy Baul speak about it -- I melt. I simply become one with what Is. Smiling in release and relief. Feeling whole, undivided, complete.

“The world runs towards down... and I run towards up, where my ‘paramatma’ (higher self) is.”  

Thank you, Parvathy Baul. Thank you for the reminder. I live for reminders like that.
