In one of the Puranas, the Devas were telling Varun that the ocean is the husband of all the rivers of the world....

But not all rivers are women, including two Indian ones 👀👀

Samudra Dev I didn't know you swung both ways (what else did I expect from someone related to VARUN tho)

ALSO BRAHMAPUTRA??? HELLO??? U HAVE A HUSBAND???

SINDHUJI??? HELP

I HEARD THAT ONCE (it was on accordance to Ganga) BUT IT WAS TOTALLY OUT OF MY MIND OMG

I mean he's the Samudra so he got those waves hitting both the shores (does this joke even makes sence? Lmao)

Aku merindukan bagaimana senyuman mu yang mulai pudar di ingatan

aku merindukan bagaimana tawa mu saat kau berbincang dengan kawan-kawan mu

aku merindukanmu disaat kita berapasan di kota ku

aku merindukan mu disaat aku bisa menatap lama mata teduh mu

aku merindukan mu saat kita bisa dengan tidak sengaja bertemu

amu merindukan mu saat kau gunakan kau hijau itu

aku merindukan mu dengan celana hitam dan sepatu berwarna hijau mu

aku merindukan mu, merindukan segala detail mu, merindukan waktu-waktu saat kau mash ada dikota ku

Tuan mari bertemu, aku ingin memeluk raga mu, menatap lama wajah mu

Dalam luasanya samudra ini, apa yang direnggut oleh ombak mengenai masa kecilmu yang riang dulu?

Tertawamu yang dulu nyata.. kini rasanya hanya bohong belaka

Capek ya?, tapi tidak apa. begitulah jalan hidup.. ya kan?

kita sama-sama tahu, tidak semua keinginan akan menjadi kenyataan, bukan?

Background of Samudra Mathan and Lord Shiva consuming Haalaahala

I want to remember the story of Lord Shiva drinking poison, as it holds great significance in our Hindu tradition. It shows our Lord's compassion towards us.

The story of Samudra Manthan begins during a time of conflict between the Devas and Asuras. After being defeated, the Devas sought help from Lord Vishnu, who advised them to churn the ocean of milk to obtain amrita, the nectar of immortality. To do this, they needed the strength of the Asuras, so the Devas proposed a partnership. Mount Mandara served as the churning rod, and the serpent Vasuki was used as the rope.

As they churned, various treasures emerged, such as Kamadhenu, Airavata, Kalpavriksha, Laxmi, and Dhanvantari, who brought the pot of amrita. However, amidst these wonders, a deadly poison named Haalaahala surfaced, threatening to destroy everything. Both the Devas and Asuras were terrified and turned to Lord Shiva for assistance.

Lord Shiva answered their prayers and, realizing the gravity of the situation, decided to consume the poison to save the universe. With great resolve, he swallowed the Haalaahala, holding it in his throat to prevent it from affecting him. This act turned his throat blue, earning him the name Neelkanth.

Once Lord Shiva contained the poison, the churning continued, and eventually, the amrita was produced.

A Slight Variation in the story according to different sources:

In the story of Samudra Manthan, Parvati's involvement with the poison is often mentioned in various retellings. According to some versions, after Lord Shiva consumed the Haalaahala poison to save the universe, Parvati became concerned for his well-being.

To protect him, she is said to have grasped his throat, preventing the poison from going further into his body. This act symbolizes her role as a nurturing and protective force. This detail is found in some texts and folklore, though it may not be emphasized in all versions of the story.

I personally love the story of how Lord Shiva consumed Halahala to protect us. It shows that he is capable of absorbing all our poisons and granting the amrita of liberation. There is nothing that can equal his mercy.

CRYING HELP

I just read that when Varuni appeared in the Samudra Manthan she was UBER DRUNK (in other words, "her eyes rolling in intoxication") HSJSKSJDJDK

Why's she so effortlessly funny 😭😭😭😭

LMAO WHAT

I mean she's also called Madira and you dare expect she'd not be drunk on the same thing the moment you meet her 😌😌😌

SHE'S AN ICON MYGOSH I LOVE HER SO MUCH

Also this would make her waving at Varuna even more funny cuz she has no idea of what she did lol...

Also also I can imagine her coming out completely drunk stumbling and her manthan wale siblings (aka Lakshmi, Nidra, Chandra etc) all trying to hide or cover their faces going “gurlllll stawppp” “we don't know her....”

[klarisaa]

aku ingin memelukmu dengan tenang

setenang laut yang menyambut ombak yang kembali setelah menyapa daratan

aku ingin mengengamu hangat

sehangat sinar matahari di ufuk timur pada pagi

aku ingin mendampingi mu sampai nanti

sampai raga sudah menua dimakan masa

sampai kulitku keriput terbawa jama

sampai rambutku memutih karena usia senja

sampai pada akhirnnya mataku menutup dan tidak membuka lagi

dan pada saat itu pula sudah kutepati janjiku

yang akan menemanimu sampai akhir hayat ku
