There is a way of blessing a couple in Karnataka in older generation. They say "shiva-parvati haagiri". It means you couple should live together like Shiva and parvati. I always had a curiosity why they don't bless couple like "stay together like lakshmi narayana".

I heard answer from someone. I think it's valid. It is not that love is lesser between Lakshmi and Narayan compared to Shiv and parvati. It's because fate has always seperated Lakshmi and Narayan in their incarnations. Even though Shri Raam had loved Sita maata and Shri Krishna loved Raadha, they had to go through so many hardships. In our scriptures, there are descriptions how much Sita Maata and Raadha had to suffer from seperation. Also Sita Maata was cursed to have such pain in relationship.

Compared to them, Shiva parvati don't have such tragic separation.

That's why people don't bless them "Live together like Lakshmi-Narayan". I find this a very valid reason. So, It is not because their love is less. It is because their fate is adverse.

You can provide your thoughts in comments.

It'll never stop being funny to me how Indra's status and power level changes throughout the different texts because initially, you have this absolute badass God-King who defeats a giant monster and gets together with his wife and holds court in heaven. Next the Ramayana rolls up and he is set as a benchmark for battle-skill: Meghnad, as the warrior who defeated him, is an absolute powerhouse who nearly kills both Rama and Lakshmana (and one of those two is a god). In fact, depending on the version, Rama and Lakshmana only survive by semi-divine intervention (Garuda and Hanumana). It is a story about how Lakshmana, an exiled third prince, kills the man who defeated the King of Gods, thereby proving the victory of good over evil et cetera... et cetera... You know the drill.

And then, you have the Mahabharata. Where Krishna, then a young boy, protects an entire settlement from Indra's rage. Which... you know what, fine, he too is a god.

But then, Arjuna defeats Indra, who is his father. Arjuna, who presumably upset the audience a few moments ago after he just burned a whole forest with everyone (including children) in it to supposedly satisfy Agni.

Then, Indra shows up to Karna's doorstep begging for his armour, and Karna who had previously angered the audience by calling Draupadi a harlot gets to demand things from the king of the gods.

See the pattern?

Also they have that absolute disaster of a ceremony and their city is called Indraprashtha.

Like come on, at this point you're just using Indra as the bonus +500 point in games to get your favourites in the audience's good books after they messed up.

My friends and I have been discussing how Sanatana Dharma, as such, is viewed in today's society- of course, we know there are a lot of skeptics and critics who mock.

But my post is not about them, not today.

It is about those who are genuine Sanatana Dharma followers, or so their bios, posts and everything else indicate: from what little I know, I believe this to be genuinely true.

However, despite all that, the kind of insensitivity I see with regards to characters from the epics is a bit insane- especially Mahabharata characters.

And even more so, Krishna.

I rarely call people out about this, as Sanatana Dharma is largely forgiving and accepting, but I also remember that we have to call out insensitive perceptions.

And it is not even about Krishna as Bhagavan- it is about understanding Krishna the human and the things He does.

The trend across social media (all platforms) is to use fictional dramatics on Krishna, and superimpose Krishna with those kind of fictional humans, without understanding Krishna, the human.

Yes, Krishna as the human is intriguing.

But to write Him as human, one does NOT need to use the randomest of TROPES and anything and everything. Krishna is not a fictional character, He is historical other than being the endless Divine.

I know everyone will say: It is our wish to write Him and represent Him as we want.

Sure, freedom of expression and all that, but is it right to take the One who is as human as He is Bhagavan, whose actions are clearly explained, and make INSENSITIVE jokes?

Well meaning jokes is common, but insensitivity? It is unfair to be insensitive about fictional characters only, let alone ACTUAL HISTORICAL CHARACTERS.

At least making jokes with care is okay, but to be insensitive to someone's actions and make it something grossly untrue? THAT IS A BIG NO.

Not with historical characters.

I don't even think it is all that fair with fictional characters, so there is that.

It is time we take action, and think before we post- is this what Krishna really did? Was this His meaning, even as a human?

This is not about Him being Paramatma as much as it is about Him being thought of as a character, as a human, and as the complete Purusha.

Krishna loves everyone, but should we not channel our love for Him to ensure that even jokes we make are respectful?
