Today is the final day of Navaratri before Vijayadashami-the day of victory. This beautiful Sarasvati is a detail from a painting by Ratna Gopal Sinkhwal. If you are ever in Portland, Oregon, you can see the original painting at Jaya Kula's teaching space!
At Navaratri, we celebrate coming into wisdom. During the first three days, the warrior Durga or her even fiercer daughter Kali cut away limitations to our perception so that we can see the real nature of things. During the second three days, Lakshmi awakens our generosity and lets us encounter primordial abundance and nourishment. And during the final three days, we come into clarity and wisdom embodied by Sarasvati.
Sarasvati is both the supreme clarity of perception and the self-expression of the Artist. Once we are immersed in recognition of how things actually are, we spontaneously embody the overflowing creativity or expressiveness of this alive-aware Reality. We become the makers rather than the made
[Shambhavi Sarasvati]
* * * *
The divine is shining through all that you perceive. This is not just a nice story or a fable, it is true.

The Evolution of Madhubani Art Over Time
Tumblr media
Madhubani art (also Mithila art) is a style of painting practiced in the Mithila region of India and Nepal. It is named after the Madhubani district of Bihar, India, which is where it originated. Artists create these paintings using a variety of mediums, including their own fingers, or twigs, brushes, nib-pens, and matchstick. The paint is created using natural dyes and pigments. The paintings are characterized by their eye-catching geometrical patterns. There is ritual content for particular occasions, such as birth or marriage, and festivals, such as Holi, Surya Shasti, Kali Puja, Upanayana, and Durga Puja.
Madhubani painting (or Mithila painting) was traditionally created by the women of various communities in the Mithila region of the Indian subcontinent. It originated from Madhubani district of the Mithila region of Bihar. Madhubani is also a major export center of these paintings.
This painting as a form of wall art was practiced widely throughout the region; the more recent development of painting on paper and canvas mainly originated among the villages around Madhubani, and it is these latter developments that led to the term “Madhubani art” being used alongside “Mithila Painting.”
Mithila paintings mostly depict people and their association with nature and scenes and deities from the ancient epics. Natural objects like the sun, the moon, and religious plants like tulsi are also widely painted, along with scenes from the royal court and social events like weddings. In this paintings generally, no space is left empty; the gaps are filled by paintings of flowers, animals, birds, and even geometric designs.[citation needed] Traditionally, painting was one of the skills that was passed down from generation to generation in the families of the Mithila Region, mainly by women .
It is still practiced and kept alive in institutions spread across the Mithila region. Asha Jha of Madhubanipaints in Darbhanga,
Vaidehi in Madhubani, Benipatti in Madhubani district and Gram Vikas Parishad in Ranti are some of the major centres of Madhubani painting which have kept this ancient art form alive.
Contributions:
The Madhubani painting tradition played a key role in the conservation efforts in India in 2012, where there was frequent deforestation in the state of Bihar. Shashthi Nath Jha, who runs the Gram Vikas Parishad, an NGO, started the initiative as an attempt to protect local trees that were being cut down in the name of expanding roads and development. The main reason behind this was that the trees were traditionally adorned with forms of gods and other religious and spiritual images such as those of Radha-Krishna, Rama-Sita, scenes from Ramayana and Mahabharata and other mythologies.
Darbhanga MP Gopal Jee Thakur started the tradition of honouring people with Mithila Painting in Indian Politics.
Awards:
Madhubani painting received official recognition in 1969 when Sita Devi received the State award by Government of Bihar. Mamta Devi from the village Jitwarpur has also got National Award. Jagdamba Devi from Bhajparaul, Madhubani was given Padma Shri in 1975 and the National Award to Sita Devi of Jitwarpur village near Madhubani.
Jagdamba Devi’s foster son Satya Narayan Lal Karn and his wife Moti Karn are also well-regarded Mithila artists, and they won the National Award jointly in 2003. Sita Devi received the Padma Shri in 1981. Sita Devi was also awarded by Bihar Ratna in 1984 and Shilp Guru in 2006.
In 1984 Ganga Devi was awarded by Padma Shri. Mahasundari Devi received the Padma Shri in 2011. Baua Devi, Yamuna Devi, Shanti Devi, Chano Devi, Bindeshwari Devi, Chandrakala Devi, Shashi kala Devi, Leela Devi, Godavari Dutta, Asha Jha and Bharti Dayal were also given the National award.
Chandrabhushan (Rasidpur), Ambika Devi (Rasidpur), Manisha Jha were also given the National award.[citation needed] In 2020, Madhubani artist Dulari Devi won the Padma Shri for contributions to art.
Styles:
Mithila art has five distinctive styles:
Bharni
Katchni
Tantrik
Godna
Kohbar
In the 1960s Bharni, and Tantrik styles were mainly done by Brahman women in India and Nepal. Their themes were mainly religious and they depicted Gods and Goddesses paintings. People of other castes included aspects of their daily life and symbols, the story of Raja Shailesh (guard of the village) and much more, in their paintings. Nowadays Madhubani art has become a globalised art form, so there is no difference in the work on the basis of the caste system. They work in all five styles. Mithila art has received worldwide attention.
The paintings were traditionally done on freshly plastered mud walls and floors of huts, but now they are also done on cloth, handmade paper and canvas.
Madhubani paintings are made from the paste of powdered rice. Madhubani painting has remained confined to a compact geographical area and the skills have been passed on through centuries, the content and the style have largely remained the same. Thus, Madhubani painting has received GI (Geographical Indication) status. Madhubani paintings use two-dimensional imagery, and the colors used are derived from plants. Ochre, Lampblack and Red are used for reddish-brown and black, respectively.

Failed Concoctions: Stories of Potions That Fell Short of Expectations.
Ditulis oleh 𝗥𝗜𝗦𝗢𝗟 menggunakan sudut pandang orang ketiga serba tahu.
PROMPT : Gopal dan Ansera mengendap-ngendap masuk ke ruang kelas ramuan di malam hari untuk mencoba membuat Boil-Cure Potion.
📆 : Sept, 19th, 23— 🕑 : Dimulai 08.30 P.M — Selesai.
Tumblr media
Kelas Professor Éloïse Beauregard selalu berada diurutan nomor satu kelas favorit murid-murid Camp De Boreux. Dan, anak laki-laki itu pun setuju. Bahkan, sebelum kelas pertama mengenai ramuan dimulai, Gopal sudah mencari tahu lebih dahulu berbagai hal terkait materi kelas tersebut.
Sebagai muggle dengan rasa penasaran tinggi, kelas ini menjadi salah satu bagian dari pengalaman barunya. Kalau bukan karena menjadi murid disini, bagaimana dia bisa tahu bahwa sloth brain, bones, ataupun rat tails bisa digunakan untuk membuat suatu ramuan.
Well, there are many things related to magic that will leave us amazed while being here.
Dari sekian banyak ramuan dasar yang diajarkan, Boil-Cure Potion menjadi salah salah satu ramuan yang menarik perhatiannya. Ramuan menyembuhkan bisul? Yang benar saja! Gopal tertawa heran setelah mendengarnya. Apa bisul sudah menjadi masalah umum dikalangan para penyihir sehingga membuat murid kelas satu wajib untuk belajar membuat ramuan itu?
Nyatanya, rasa penasaran itu membawa dirinya berdiri di depan Le Campus De Boreux. Atau, lebih tepatnya, dia sedang bersembunyi di dekat pintu masuk. Sweater polos bewarna merah tua yang dikenakannya seolah-olah beralih fungsi menjadi jubah tembus pandang (cloaks of invisibility) agar siapapun tidak bisa melihatnya.
Gopal melihat ke arah jam tangan di lengan kanannya, waktu sudah menunjukkan pukul setengah sembilan malam. Dia menyadari bahwa waktu tersisa tidak banyak, hanya satu setengah jam lagi sebelum batas waktu maksimal bagi para murid untuk berada di luar asrama pada malam hari.
Sekilas, dia mengingat obrolan singkat pada saat jam makan siang bersama Ansera. Perempuan itu benar-benar membuatnya berani mengambil resiko (Dalam arti lain, anak laki-laki ini sangat percaya dengan temannya itu). Siapapun mungkin akan menolak untuk menerima ajakan pergi mengendap-ngendap ke ruang kelas ramuan di malam hari hanya untuk (sekedar) memenuhi rasa penasaran akan suatu ramuan.
Namun, dirinya tanpa basa-basi langsung menerima tawaran tersebut.
Indeed, He is a crazy boy.
"Pssst!" Terdengar suara samar dari arah belakang, semakin lama suara panggilan itu terdengar lebih jelas.
"Cil! Bocil!"
Reflek, Gopal menoleh ke asal suara. Dia melihat Ansera berjalan mengendap-ngendap mendekat, perempuan itu sudah kembali setelah mengambil akar jahe dari Greenhouse yang tidak jauh dari titik pertemuan mereka.
"Gimana, Ce? Dapet?"
Ansera menanggapi dengan anggukan, "Aman!"
Mendadak Gopal merasa gemetar setelah mendengar jawaban Ansera. Dia menelan ludah. Semua bahan sudah siap, dan sekarang waktunya untuk membuat ramuan, bukan?
"CIL!" Seru Ansera, dia menoleh dengan mata membelalak. "Suara lo kecilin dikit! Nanti kita ketahuan."
"CE!" Panggil Gopal dengan nada tinggi. "GUA TAKUT."
"SORRY–" Balas Gopal. Dia baru sadar bahwa teriakan kecilnya mungkin bisa membawa mereka berdua ke lubang kematian.
"Gua mendadak lemes."
Ansera merangkul anak laki-laki itu dengan percaya diri, "Inget kata lo tadi siang, Cil. Kapan lagi kita bisa cobain bikin ramuan disini?"
"Argh," Gopal menghela nafas. Tapi, benar juga— Ini bisa jadi kesempatan terakhir. Lagipula, mereka sudah berkali-kali usaha meminta izin kepada Professor Éloïse untuk mencoba sendiri setelah kelas usia namun selalu tidak diperbolehkan. Jadi, kapan lagi?
"Ce, gaboleh tinggalin gua apapun yang terjadi."
Ansera terkekeh, dia menjitak pelan kepala anak laki-laki itu. "Please, kita tuh mau bikin ramuan bukan lagi ngelawan troll. Santai keleus!"
"Gua TAKUT aja tiba-tiba ditinggalin! " Balas Gopal, nyengir.
"BERLEBIHAN," Ansera tersenyum geli. "Sekarang, gak?"
"MANIFESTING KEMBALI DENGAN SELAMAT!" Jawab Gopal dengan anggukan mantap. Dia menarik tangan Ansera kencang dan mereka berdua pun berjalan memasuki bangungan itu.
Tumblr media
GELAP, DINGIN, SUNYI.
Tiga kata tersebut cocok untuk mendeskripsikan salah satu lorong tua di area timur kampus. Lorong ini hanya memiliki tiga ruangan utama, dan satu gudang. Hal paling diingat setiap melewati lorong ini adalah lukisan bergerak seorang pelaut bernama David Cho. tepat di sebelah ruang kelas ramuan yang berada di ujung lorong.
Gopal dan Ansera bisa dibilang beruntung karena tidak ada satu pun hantu menetap dalam lorong ini karena Professor Éloïse tidak berteman baik dengan mereka. Hantu-hantu berkeliaran dikenal juga sebagai satpam tidak kasat mata. Mereka bisa aja menegur ataupun memberitahu staff dan Professor lain jika ada murid berkeliaran di asrama pada malam hari. (Negosiasi sangat diperlukan mengingat mereka masih bisa diajak kerjasama selama mendapatkan imbalan setimpal).
Ruang kelas ramuan terkunci, salah satu cara untuk membuka ruangan itu dengan bantuan mantra. Tentu saja, mantra ini cukup mudah untuk digunakan seorang muggle mengingat tidak membutuhkan pelafalan khusus.
Dengan hati-hati, Gopal mengayunkan tongkat sihir yang terbuat dari kayu ek pelan-pelan sambil mengucapkan mantra ajaib.
"ALOHAMORA!"
Cahaya kebiruan yang mempesona segera muncul di ujung tongkatnya dan menjalar menuju pintu itu yang terlihat gemetar sejenak. Kemudian, perlahan terbuka dengan sendirinya.
Tumblr media
Gopal dan Ansera masuk perlahan ke dalam ruangan itu. Karena ini bukan pertama kalinya, mereka berdua sudah cukup ingat dengan denah kelas tersebut.
Mereka melihat rak-rak kayu tua yang dipenuhi dengan botol-botol kaca berisi ramuan-ramuan yang berkilau dalam kegelapan Beberapa botol terlihat sangat langka dan beharga dan mengeluarkan aroma ajaib.
Di tengah ruangan, ada meja panjang dengan beberapa kuali yang terletak di atasnya. Di sekitarnya terdapat berbagai alat sihir, seperti sendok-sendok ajaib dan alat pengaduk.
Di sudut lain ruangan, ada sebuah lemari besar dengan pintu kaca yang mengunci. Lemari itu berisi berbagai macam bahan-bahan untuk membuat ramuan. Ada berbagai jenis daun, akar, batu-batuan, dan bahkan bagian-bagian hewan yang digunakan dalam berbagai ramuan.
Mereka meletakkan tas-tas berisi berbagai macam bahan ajaib di atas meja. Gopal membuka tasnya dan mempersiapkan beberapa bahan yang akan digunakan. Sementara, Ansera mengeluarkan sebuah buku catatan yang berisi resep eksperimen ramuan yang mereka rencanakan.
"Semua bahan udah aman belum?" Tanya Ansera. Matanya fokus pada resep yang terpampang di halaman itu. Cahaya lilin di atas meja memberikan sentuhan dramatis.
"Jelantan kering, serpihan taring ular, siput bertanduk yang sudah direbus, duri landak, dan lendir Flobberworm?"
Gopal yang berdiri di sebelahnya memeriksa satu persatu bahan yang dibutuhkan, meyakinkan dirinya bahwa semuanya sudah lengkap.
"Dan.. Akar Jahe. Tapi, kok dicatetan gue enggak ada?" Ansera memeriksa kembali catatannya.
"Ce, jangan becanda dong. Ntar, kalau gagal gimana?" Belum juga dimulai, anak laki-laki itu mulai dramatis.
"TAPI, GUE INGET BANGET ADA AKAR JAHE, CIL!" Ansera ngotot. "Fix gue pasti lupa catet."
Here we go again, bertemu dengan Ansera dan keras kepalanya. Kalau sudah begini Gopal memilih untuk mengikuti keinginan perempuan itu. Toh, dia pun tidak ingat juga bahan yang diributkan memang dibutuhkan atau tidak.
"Argh, BINGUNG?" Balas Gopal sambil menggaruk kepala yang tidak gatal. "Yaudah, keep dulu aja. Nanti kita pikirin lagi."
"OKE!" Seru Ansera. "Yuk, mulai!"
Ekspresi mereka seketika berubah, terlihat sangat antusias untuk memulai rencana ini tetapi juga berhati-hati karena mereka hanya memiliki satu kesempatan. Mereka berdua merasakan deg-degan di perut mereka, seolah-olah berada di ambang sesuatu yang besar.
Gopal mengambil nafas dalam-dalam, merasakan ssmangatnya semakin memuncak. Mereka berdua mengambil posisi masing-masing di sekitar meja, dan dengan hati-hati memulai proses pencampuran bahan-bahan.
Kuali dipanaskan sampai berubah menjadi warna merah. Kemudian, untuk kedua kalinya dipanaskan kembali hingga ramuan berubah menjadi warna hijau.
"Ce, masukin apa dulu?"
Gopal mengambil bahan sesuai arahan, dia berusaha untuk menakar bahan dengan cermat agar tidak ada kesalahan dalam proses pembuatan ramuan ini.
"Seekor Flobberworm Lendir," Jawab Ansera sambil melirik ke arah buku catatan. "Pelan-pelan, Cil."
Setelah itu, perlahan ramuan berubah menjadi warna merah muda. Kuali dipanaskan lagi hingga berbau jeruk. Ansera mengambil jelatang kering dan mencampurkan bahan itu ke dalam kuali.
"CE, KOK JADI HIJAU?" Gopal kaget dengan perubahan warna ramuan yang mendadak.
Ansera yang berusaha fokus tersentak kaget, dia langsung mengecek ke dalam catatannya dan meyakinkan dirinya bahwa perubahan warna itu aman.
"CIL, JANGAN BIKIN PANIK!" Dia mengemomel. "Udah bener jadi warna hijau!"
"OH GITU? ABIS CEPET BANGET BERUBAHNYA." Anak laki-laki ini mulai bersikap dramatis (lagi).
"Fokus! Fokus!"
Ansera mulai mengaduk perlahan dan ramuan itu semakin lama berubau menjadi warna biru.
"Coba cek catatan. Butuh berapa taring ular?"
"Tiga—" Jawab Gopal." EH, SEBENTAR DUA? EH, EMPAT?"
Ansera melotot, "CEK CATETAN, CIL. JANGAN ASAL NEBAK."
"Catetan lo enggak jelas, Ce!" Gopal mengeluh. Mata dia meraba-raba tulisan pada catetan Ansera yang menurutnya kurang jelas.
"Buruan! Butuh berapa? Empat?"
"CIL, EMPAT? JAWAB!" Ansera mulai panik. Karena apabila bahan-bahan ini tidak ditambahkan dalam waktu yang tepat, mereka bisa langsung gagal.
Gopal memeriksa catetan lagi dan mengangguk.
Bener kok, empat!
"IYA..BENER! EMPAT."
"FOKUS!'
Ansera menambahkan empat taring ular yang sudah dihancurkan, dilanjutkan dengan kuali dipanaskan kembali sambil diaduk perlahan. Kemudian, Gopal mendekat dan mengambil alih untuk mengaduk ramuan itu yang berubah menjadi warna merah muda.
Gopal mengingat pesan dari Professor di kelas. Yang perlu diperhatikan dalam pembuatan ramuan ini adalah takaran bahan dan besar api yang nantinya mempengaruhi warna ramuan (Jumlah adukan pun bisa menjadi faktor namun tidak terlalu penting). Jika ada sedikit kesalahan, kualitas ramuan bisa berubah. Yang semula digunakan untuk menyembuhkan bisul, bisa saja menjadi berbahaya.
"Sekarang tambahkan sebelas siput bertanduk!"
Ansera mengambil dan menambahkan bahan itu. Tanpa perlu aba-aba, Gopal langsung mengaduk perlahan hingga ramuan kembali bewarna merah.
"Ce, jadi mau tambahin akar jahe?" Gopal menoleh pada Ansera, ragu.
Ansera terdiam sejenak, dia berusaha mengingat kembali kelas siang itu. Namun, dia gagal.
"Jujur, gue bingung! Apa enggak usah?" Balas Ansera.
"Menurut gue gak usah, karena lo gak catet itu."
"TERUS KENAPA GUE MIKIR ADA AKAR JAHE?" Ansera mengendus kelas. "Kalau gitu gue gak usah balik ke greenhouse tadi."
Gopal ikut berpikir, dia sendiri bingung karena tidak mengingat satu pun mengenai akar jahe.
"Yaudah, masukin aja?" Saran Gopal. Dia masih ragu. Namun, kalau tidak dicoba tidak akan tahu.
"Kalau salah gimana, Cil?"
"Gapapa. Kita kabur aja." Jawab Gopal asal. Tapi, memang benar bukan? Ngapain lagi kalau bukan kabur?
Ansera akhirnya setuju, dia menyamgil akar jahe dan menambahkannya pelan-pelan. Mereka agak menjauhkan diri untuk antisipasi apabila terjadi sesuatu yang tidak terduga.
Sudah lewat tiga menit, dan tidak terjadi apapun.
Dalam ketegangan yang memenuhi ruangan, Gopal dan Ansera saling menoleh, mata mereka penuh pertanyaan. Dengan hati-hati, Ansera mendekat ke kuali dan memeriksa warna ramuan yang terbentuk dengan cermat.
Ternyata, tidak berubah.
"Cil, aman deh!" Kata Ansera.
"KITA SELAMAT, CE!" Teriak Gopal. Dia menghela nafas lega karena situasi "mengerikan" itu sudah lewat.
Tumblr media
Hal terakhir untuk membuat ramuan semakin sempurna adalah menambahkan bulu landak. Mereka telah mencapai tahap kritis dalam proses pembuatannya dan sekarang harus memutuskan kapan memasuk bulu landak ke dalam kuali. Sementara mereka merenung, bau harum campuran bahan-bahan ramuan itu mengisi ruangan.
"Gue bingung," Ansera menaikkan salah satu alisnya. '"Bulu landak harus dimasukin setelah atau sebelum kuali diangkat, ya?"
"Dicatetan lo apa?"
"NAH ITU... Gue disini nulis keduanya? GUE LUPA. Lo gak catet, Cil?"
Gopal menggelengkan kepala, "Apa yang lo harepin dari gue? Isi catetan gue adanya nama-nama anak yang ngutangin risol."
"TERUS GIMANA? SEMENIT LAGI HARUS DIANGKAT." Balas Ansera panik.
"EH, GIMANA?" Bukan menjawab, anak laki-laki itu justru ikutan panik.
"GIMANA?"
"PAS KUALI DI ATAS API?" Jawab Gopal tanpa berpikir panjang. Dia benar-benar asal menjawab.
"KENAPA HARUS GITU?"
"GUE ASAL JAWAB AJA," Balas Gopal. "COBA DEH KITA MIKIR REALISTIS...BIAR..ITU...RAMUAN JADI MERESAP?"
"YA IYA SIH.. FEELING GUE JUGA GITU? YAUDAH..? GAS?"
"PASRAH."
Dengan hati-hati, mereka memasukkan beberapa bulu landak ke dalam kuali yang masih terpanaskan. Mereka menyaksikan dengan penuh ketegangan saat bulu-bulu itu berada dalam kuali yang panas, berharap itu adalah keputusan yang benar.
Namun, tiba-tiba, kuali tersebut terlihat mulai meleleh. Ansera dan Gopal panik saat mereka melihat ramuan yang tadinya rapi menjadi acak-acakan. Suara ledakan kecil terdengar, membuat mereka melompat mundur.
"CECE!" Teriak Gopal histeris.
Aduh.
"CIL CIL CIL..INI GIMANA?"
Namun, kenyataan yang lebih mengejutkan datang ketika mereka melihat ramuan yang kini tidak beraturan dan berbahaya. Gopal, yang masih dalam kepanikan, tanpa sengaja menyentuh ramuan tersebut dengan jarinya, kemudian tanpa sadar menepelkannya ke pipinya.
"CECE, DUH! PANAS, CE!"
Ansera, terkejut oleh tindakan Gopal, tidak menyadari bahwa kursi di belakangnya telah terkena percikan ramuan yang tak terkendali. Tanpa diduga, Ansera duduk dengan keras, mengenai ramuan tersebut, dan dengan segera teriak panik.
"AAAAAAAH!" Teriak Ansera, dia langsung merasakan sensasi perih luar biasa.
"SAKIT, CIL!"
Saat mereka saling pandang, terlihat bisul merah yang besar muncul di area yang terkena ramuan tersebut. Kedua wajah mereka penuh kepanikan dan rasa sakit. Ramuan yang seharusnya menjadi karya masterpiece sihir, malah mengubah mereka menjadi korban eksperimen yang buruk.
"CE, ADA BISUL DI PIPI GUE?" Gopal meraba-raba bisul itu dengan tangan kanan, mencoba merasakan sebesar apa bisul itu muncul.
"GEDE BANGET! NANGIS KITA HARUS GIMANA?" Lanjut Gopal setelah menyadari bisul yang muncul itu sebesar kacang tanah.
"CIL, LIHAT GUE?" Ansera lebih histeris dan menunjukkan bisul yang sepertinya tumbuh di area yang terkena ramuan itu.
"GIMANA CARA GUE MAU DUDUK?"
Gopal meraba-raba kepala untuk mencari solusi, tetapi dengan waktu yang semakin berkurang dan jam malam yang akan segera berakhir, mereka merasa semakin terdesak.
"CIL! COBA PAKE MANTRA?" Saran Ansera.
"JIR! GUE GAK TAU MANTRA APA, CE?" Jawab Gopal. Isi kepala dia benar-benar kosong.
"TERUS KITA GIMANA?"
Gopal berpikir untuk mencoba membuat ulang ramuan tersebut agar menjadi benar, tetapi mereka sadar bahwa waktu yang tersisa tidak cukup untuk melakukannya. Situasi semakin rumit, dan mereka merasa semakin terpojok.
"Ce, gak ada waktu lagi," Gopal melirik ke arah jam tangan. "Ce, serius. Kita harus pergi."
"SEKARANG? TERUS KITA GI—" Sebelum Ansera menyelesaikan perkataanya, Gopal terlebih dahulu menyela.
"Sekarang atau kita ketahuan?!"
Ansera segera bergabung dengan Gopal untuk membersihkan segala kekacauan yang telah terjadi. Mereka tahu bahwa jika ketahuan, hukuman yang menanti akan semakin berat.
"Cil! Pake mantra!" Ansera memberikan saran untuk menggunakan mantra sihir, lalu dia dengan cepat mengeluarkan tongkat kayunya.
"Tergeo! APA LAGI?"
Gopal yang tengah panik, berusaha keras untuk mengingat mantra apa lagi yang mungkin bisa membantu dalam situasi ini.
Dengan tangan gemetar, dia mengayunkan tongkatnya dan berkata, "Mobiliarbus!"
Semua benda yang sebelumnya tercecer di sekitar mereka melayang di udara dan kembali ke tempat masing-masing, seolah-olah tidak ada yang pernah terjadi. Mereka merasa lega saat melihat kelas ramuan kembali dalam keadaan rapi.
Tetapi mereka tidak punya banyak waktu untuk bersantai. Dalam ketegangan yang terus menyelimuti mereka, Gopal dan Ansera buru-buru meninggalkan ruangan.
"Colloportus!" Gopal menggunakan mantra sihir itu untuk mengunci pintu hati-hati, berharap agar rahasia mereka tetap terjaga.
Gopal dan Ansera berjalan tergesa-gesa melalui koridor yang gelap. Mereka berdua tidak bisa berbicara, tangan mereka gemetar karena panik dan setiap langkah terasa seperti beban berat. Mereka terfokus pada misi mereka untuk mencapai asrama sebelum batas waktu berakhir.
Namun, satu pertanyaan yang besar terus menghantui pikiran mereka: Bagaimana mereka akan menjelaskan kepada semua orang tentang bisul ini?
THE END.

On this day, 12 December 1948, the Batang Kali massacre took place in Malaysia (then Malaya) when British troops massacred 24 unarmed rubber plantation workers as part of their campaign against a communist insurgency in the British imperial colony. Malaya was at the time the world's biggest exporter of rubber and tin, which Britain needed to tax to pay debts to the US. None of the murderers, members of the Scots Guards, were charged with any offences.

Selections from the Saints and Mystics - Exploring A Treasure-Trove of Spiritual Writings and Teachings - Sant Mat Sampler
Tumblr media
"Sant Mat" can be defined as: "The Teachings ('Mat') of the Saints ('Sants') or Sages" or "Path of the Masters". In India it’s common knowledge that the term "Sant Mat" was coined or adapted by Param Sant Tulsi Sahib of Hathras during the 19th-century. "Sant Mat" was adopted and popularized by Tulsi Sahib as a new name for this spiritual path or genre of mysticism, but the Sant tradition, with its many guru-lineages or branches, is a spiritual movement that dates back many centuries to ancient India.

"There is no end to the number of Sants who appeared in the Yugas [Epochs] of Sat, Treta, Dvapar, and Kali [Yuga]. I sing of the celebrated one I have heard of, and bow my head to all the others." (Jan Gopal, disciple of Sant Dadu Dayal)
"I have given out the same true secrets which Sants like Kabir Saheb, Dadu Saheb, Rai Das Ji, Darya Saheb, Guru Nanak, Soor Das Ji, Nabha Ji and Mira Bai have spoken of. They, too, have composed similar hymns describing the bliss of the Highest Spiritual Region, whose glory I also have sung, blessed by the grace and the dust of the holy feet of Sants." (Sant Tulsi Sahib, Book of Ghat Ramayan)
"The names of some of the perfect and true Sants, Sadhs and Faqirs who manifested themselves during the past seven hundred years are Kabir Saheb, Tulsi Saheb, Jagjiwan Saheb, Garib Das, Paltu Saheb, Guru Nanak, Dadu Saheb, Tulsi Das, Nabhaji, Swami Hari Das, Sur Das and Rai Das. And some of the Muslim names are Shams Tabrez, Maulvi Rumi, Hafiz, Sarmad and Mujaddid Alif Sani. A perusal of their writings would give an idea of their spiritual attainments." (Sar Bachan Radhasoami Prose, A Summary of the Teachings of Soami Ji Maharaj)
"Sacrifice to the magnificent Saints like Kabir, Nanak, Goswami Tulsidas and Tulsi Sahib, Dadu, Sundar Das, Sur Das, Swapach, Ravi Das, Jagjiwan, Paltu, etc..., They are all great benefactors, delivering human beings from the fears of the world, Satguru Devi and other Saints are also highly adorable, Maharshi Mehi sings their magnificence and lies prostrate at their sacred feet with faith and love." (Maharshi Mehi Paramhans, Book of Padavali)

Remembering I. S. Johar on his 35th death anniversary. Inder Sen Johar (16 February 1920 – 10 March 1984) better known as I.S. Johar, was an actor, writer, producer, and director. Johar acted in numerous Hindi films from the 1950s through to the early 1980s and played cameos in international films such as Harry Black (1958), North West Frontier (1959), Lawrence of Arabia (1962) and Death on the Nile (1978), besides acting in Maya (1967), a US TV series. He also appeared in Punjabi films, including Chaddian Di Doli (1966), Nanak Naam Jahaaz Hai (1969) with Prithviraj Kapoor, and Yamla Jatt with Helen. Wrote, acted in, and Directed the best partition based Hindi movie Nastik (1954). I. S. Johar also wrote and directed films, some of which included Johar Mehmood in Goa and Johar Mehmood in Hong Kong in which he co-starred with comedian Mehmood. These were inspired by comedy films of the Bob Hope-Bing Crosby style Road to... series. That being said, Johar was a unique and idiosyncratic individual, a lifelong liberal (if not a libertine: he had five marriages, an extraordinary number by Indian standards, both then and now) who poked fun at all forms of institutionalised self-satisfied smugness – an attitude which did not endear him to the essentially hierarchical and conservative Indian establishment, and might have contributed to being relegated to making B-grade movies all his life, due to a lack of finding financing for his highly individual and quirky screenplays. In many of his films, both those he directed and those he acted in, Sonia Sahni was the leading lady, most notably in Johar Mahmood in Goa, 1964. He also starred in films with his own surname in the title such as Mera Naam Johar, Johar in Kashmir and Johar in Bombay, which is a testament both to his immense egotism, as well as his popularity with the common masses – for whom a movie with the Johar name was a guarantee of easy laughs, as well as subtle ironic or frankly sarcastic jibes at Indian customs, mores, superstitions and institutions. His film Nasbandi (Vasectomy) was a spoof on Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's failed policy of population control by coerced vasectomies during the period of Emergency and was "banned" when it was first released. Yash Chopra started his film career as an assistant director with I. S. Johar. In 1963 he starred as "Gopal" in two Italian films directed by Mario Camerini: "Kali Yug, la dea della vendetta" (Kali Yug, Goddess of vengeance) and "Il Mistero del tempio indiano" (The secret of the Hindu temple).

Funfacts, Papa dan Mama random banget ngasih nama Gopal. Karena apa? Setelah nonton acara tawa Opera Van Java [OVJ], tiba-tiba Papa kepikiran nama tersebut. Padahal, gak ada korelasi sama sekali. Tapi, Papa sih ngeles berharap gua bisa sekeren anggota acara tersebut [ASBUN BANGET DAH]. Karena nama GOPAL itu sendiri singkatan dari; Gagah, Optimis, Perkasa, Asik, dan Lucu.

Keluarga gua juga sangat amat dekat dengan bidang pendidikan. Papa, beliau seorang kepala sekolah berwibawa di salah satu SMA Negeri di Tangerang Selatan. Nah, Mama beda lagi! Beliau itu guru sosiologi keren di salah satu SMP Negeri di Tangerang Selatan. GUA SANGAT AMAT BERSYUKUR bisa terlahir dalam keluarga ini karena bisa mendapatkan BANYAK banget privilage untuk berkembang. CIELAH.
Sebagai mahasiswa penuh ambisi dan tekad kuat, gua aktif dalam berbagai kegiatan kampus. Kalau dipikir-pikir dalam seminggu itu, gua ngerasa butuh lebih dari 7 hari! Karena gua sibuk banget untuk mengikutin kegiatan kepanitiaan alias budak event! Alhasil, karena tuntutan ini gua pun harus danusan risol sampai target acara terpenuhi.
Kedengeran capek? Banget! Tapi, selama ini gua fun aja sih. Mungkin, ngerasa itu sudah tanggung jawab dan konsekuensi dari jalan gua ambil. ARGH, BAHASANYA KEREN BETUL. Dan, karena alesan itu pun gua jadi memberanikan diri membuat risol sendiri! Walaupun masih belum seenak tempat lain, tapi risol gua termasuk most-wanted food di kampus. Karena ini, gua ada misi sendiri untuk memperkenalkan risol ke seluruh dunia. Gak sabar!
Jangan lupa, satu risol 2000, beli tiga bisa 5000 [selipin promosi sedikit].
Oke, cukup sampai disini. Kalau mau kepo lagi, PDKT? AHAY. Gak, deh. Nanti, lanjut lagi kalau enggak lupa.

Sants (Saints, Satgurus) of Antiquity Long Before the Time of Kabir
It’s unknown who the first Sant was in ancient times. There are references in Krishna/Vaishnava texts to Sants. A few of the Rishi Sages who authored certain Upanishads pertaining to the Formless God, Inner Light and Sound Meditation or Nada/Shabda Yoga (some dating back many centuries B.C.E.) also seem to be at the same level as Sants. In somewhat more recent times, in some circles associated with the Tulsi Sahibis, Gorakhnath, a 11th-century Nath Yogi, is considered to be a Sant. Baba Gorakhnath did teach Surat Shabd Yoga. The Kabir Panth tradition of northern Sants includes much Nath Yogi terminology and apparently was somewhat influenced by the Nath tradition. The 15th century poet-mystic and spiritual master Kabir can be credited with helping to expand greatly the influence of the Sants in India, but Kabir was not the first Sant, and it is unknown who his guru was. (Some traditions describe Baba Ramananda as the guru of Kabir, but not everyone agrees with this view.) The first Masters formally called Sants that are usually mentioned in Sant literature are the 12th-century poet Jayadeva, author of the Gita Govinda, and, Visoba Khechar, who was Sant Namdev’s spiritual Master (Sant Satguru).
Seeing references in Krishna/Vaishnava Hindu scriptures, Sant Tulsi Sahib of Hathras was of the opinion that the Sant movement dates back to the time of Krishna thousands of years ago, that Krishna knew of Sants during his day.
An Example of Sants Mentioned in a Hindu Scripture Called the Bhagavad Purana
“Such individuals who have achieved the unity of atman (soul) and Param-atman (Supreme Soul, God) are known as Sants. According to the Bhagavad Purana there is no one greater than a Sant in the eyes of the Divine. Lord Krishna says to his disciple Uddhava Ji: ‘All devotees like you are very dear to me. They are dearer to me than Lord Brahma, Lord Shankara, my brother Bal Ram, Goddess Lakshmi and even my own soul. Therefore, I walk behind these Sants hoping that the dust arising from their holy feet would touch my body and purify me.’” (Hindu scripture quoted by Swami Vyasanand of the Tulsi Sahib/Maharshi Mehi Sant Mat lineage in his book, “The Inward Journey of the Soul”, new Amazon Kindle e-book)
“There is no end to the number of Sants who appeared in the Yugas [Epochs] of Sat, Treta, Dvapar, and Kali [Yuga]. I sing of the celebrated one I have heard of, and bow my head to all the others.” (Jan Gopal, disciple of Sant Dadu Dayal of Rajasthan in, The Life Story of Dadu Dayal — The Book of Janma, translated into English by the scholar Winand M. Callewaert, in, “The Hindi Biography of Dadu Dayal”, Motilal Banarsidass.)

100 hari Din PM dapat pujian ramai kecuali UMNO,why?...
100 hari Din PM dapat pujian ramai kecuali UMNO,why?....
Din macam Bangla tak faham Bahasa Melayu...
Sempena 100 hari Muhyiddin Yassin menjadi Perdana Menteri pada 9 Jun lalu, ternampak begitu banyak puji-pujian dan sanjungan yang sengaja direka dikalungkan terhadapnya.Terutama media arus perdana, pengampu dalam media sosial, pensyarah universiti dan tidak terkecuali pemimpin Pas, mereka dilihat bukan main gigih lagi memberi pujian kepada Muhyiddin. Terlihat pujian dan sanjungan terhadap Muhyiddin ini melebihi apa yang pernah diterima oleh mana-mana Perdana Menteri sebelum ini ketika mereka melepasi tempoh 100 hari memegang jawatan tersebut. Tak tahulah, mungkin kerana kedudukan Muhyiddin yang tidak begitu stabil dan cara beliau menjadi Perdana Menteri pula tidak mengikut normal yang sepatutnya, bak kata Duta ke Timur Tengah bertaraf menteri – ikut tebuk atap – maka pujian dan sanjungan sebegitu rupa sengaja diolah untuk menenggelamkan ketidakstabilan yang ada. Ada yang mengatakan dalam tempoh 100 hari ini Muhyiddin telah berjaya mengemudi negara dengan cemerlang, tidak berpolitik, hanya fokus kepada rakyat, layak diberikan markah A, rakyat lebih gembira dan bermacam-macam lagi kata-kata pujian yang tentunya mampu membuatkan songkok di kepalanya jadi lebih ketat daripada biasa. Cuma yang agak sedikit musykil, tidak ternampak ada pemimpin UMNO turut ghairah memberi pujian kepada Muhyiddin berbanding rakan daripada Pas yang baru merasa nikmat jawatan dalam kerajaan.
Org kata  bebas rasuah bukan bebaskan perasuah...
Tetapi, jika kita jujur dan benar-benar melihat menggunakan kaca mata atau teropong yang putih bersih, bukan disaluti limpahan duniawi bertaraf menteri, benarkah Muhyiddin seorang Perdana Menteri yang boleh dikira berjaya dan layak diberi markah A? Benarkah juga beliau seorang Perdana Menteri yang tidak berpolitik dalam tempoh 100 hari, sebaliknya hanya mengutamakan rakyat semata-mata? Hakikat paling nyata ialah Muhyiddin belum teruji lagi kedudukannya kerana sejak menjadi Perdana Menteri, beliau bukan saja mengelak untuk mengadakan sidang Parlimen, malah tidak pernah sama sekali berdepan wartawan secara langsung. Dengan itu, kita tidak tahu sama ada beliau benar-benar ada sokongan majoriti atau sebaliknya. Lantaran tidak berani mengadakan sidang Parlimen, malah menangguhkan daripada 9 Mac kepada 18 Mei, kemudian menangguhkan sekali lagi kepada 13 Julai depan, itu pun belum dipastikan sama usul undi tidak percaya akan dibenar dibentang atau terus dihalang, tanggapan mudah ialah beliau masih tidak cukup sokongan di dalam Parlimen. Jika benar sudah ada sokongan, kenapa mesti menangguh-nangguhkan sidang Parlimen? Walaupun sudah 100 hari memegang kuasa, Muhyiddin juga satu-satunya Perdana Menteri yang tidak pernah berdepan secara langsung dengan wartawan. Beliau hanya berani muncul melalui perutusan khas beberapa kali di depan kamera dan tanpa pertanyaan wartawan kemudiannya. - Shahbudin Husin
Ostad N Balasubramaniam juai mimpi jumpa Nabi, dapat juga Senator. 
Kesian walaun2 tin milo dan pacak bendera habuk pun tak dak...Takbeerrr!
Can we still look to Tun M 
for another miracle?...
PM Muhyiddin's effort to combat the coronavirus outbreak has been commendable, but unfortunately this alone is not going to assure him he can always keep his PM seat, nor his party PPBM remains solid as ever. While fighting the virus, he is also trying to rope in more elected reps, Indeed, there are too many political frogs constantly making noise in the midst, totally unprincipled, dishonorable and morally depraved. Tun M is not going to be left out as he is prowling to make a comeback soon. The thing is, how many people will place their trust on this old man again, save for Pakatan Harapan? To seize the lost power, PH will still opt to dance with the devil, knowing very well he could hardly be trusted. Anwar seems to have somewhat changed in recent weeks. He has started to get tough with Mahathir, having refused to meet him on several occasions and absented himself from press conferences he chaired. Party insiders say Anwar's tolerance for Mahathir has been stretched to a limit and he is not going to submit himself to the old man any more. We all know that Anwar's attitude will sooner or later soften for the sake of power. Expectedly, the two men met again before long. On June 10, Mahathir made a personal call at PKR headquarters to attend the PH meeting to discuss the PM candidate if PH++ gets to rule again. The PM post is the only palpable barrier standing in the way of PH–Mahathir cooperation. We have yet to see whether Anwar will make himself a fool once again. Given the current political chaos in the country, political frogs have become a tradable commodity. Both Mahathir and PH are racing against time to get elected reps on their side while seizing any available opportunity to talk the 18 GPS MPs into joining them, which will significantly boost their chances of returning to power. Mahathir's son Mukhriz has claimed that PH will form a new government before the parliamentary sitting resumes in July. Both PN and PH claim they have the numbers.
The numbers are, in reality, no longer important, as frogs can hop from one side to another and statutory declarations can be signed carelessly. Mahathir has said the numbers keep appearing and disappearing and he just doesn't know whether he has the numbers! Indeed, power will make one crazy, and once the sweet taste of power is savored, it will stay etched in the mind and be grabbed back at all costs if lost. In order to grab the power, many politicians have forgotten that the power entrusted to them actually comes from the rakyat, who are their real bosses. When power is at hand, they become arrogant and would indiscriminately abuse that power. Mahathir is now working very hard to recapture that power from the hands of Muhyiddin. In addition to getting more MPs to support him, he also challenges Muhyiddin in the court over the termination of party membership of him and four others. He insists he is still the party's legitimate chairman. Muhyiddin not only needs to put up a good show in combating the virus, he also has tons of political challenges to face. To consolidate PPBM's position in the ruling coalition, he has proposed to register PN as a formal alliance, but that does not seem to work out quite nicely. Majority of PPBM leaders and members were from Umno, both parties sharing very identical DNA. No one can tell for sure MPs defecting to PPBM post-GE14 will not go back to Umno one day. Which side will these people stand if a snap election is called soon, or if Muhyiddin's administration would last until the next general election is due?
There were as many as 46 parliamentary seats that saw three-cornered fights among Umno, PAS and PPBM in GE14. Of these seats, PPBM only won ten while Umno and PAS took 30 and six respectively. It will be inconceivable for Muhyiddin to get Umno to hand over these seats to his party, and pro-Mahathir former education minister Maszlee Malik is skeptical PPBM can even retain the existing ten seats. The fundamental support bases of these three parties are all Malay-dominant constituencies. Once the Parliament is dissolved, all these parties will be operating on their own. Neither Umno nor PAS is going to negotiate seat allocation with you! Muhyiddin was unlucky enough to have assumed the PM post at a time the country's coronavirus outbreak was on the verge of an explosive growth. And with the virus now somewhat under control, he has to muster all his energy to tackle the siege from PH and Mahathir. Mahathir has never absented himself from the Malaysian governments during the past four decades. Save for his 22 years as prime minister, he also made himself visible during Abdullah's and Najib's administrations. He took out Abdullah to install Najib, and then took out the latter to become PM himself, again. This February, his rushy resignation killed the PH administration, and he was then fighting to get reinstated. He will not call it a day until Muhyiddin—the unpresumable eighth prime minister who betrayed and unseated him—is taken out of office. Mahathir still has the clout, and is now making advances towards becoming the country's ninth prime minister, another world record indeed! But, can we still look to him to deliver another miracle? - Pook Ah Lek, Sin Chew Daily
Najib's Races Plans Into Action 
To Get Off The Hook?...
The moves to get charges dropped against UMNO’s warlords appear to have moved into urgent top gear – is this a sign that the coup coalition fears time may be running out? Yesterday the former AG Apandi (who in 2016 declared that the 1MDB investigation proved no evidence of wrongdoing whilst waving the incriminating evidence for all to see) was once more put to work seeking to allege the prosecutor in Najib’s 1MDB trial was compromised. Now, it has emerged, Najib’s allies immediately headed down to the police station reporting alleged ‘treason’ against former PM Mahathir Mohamad in connection with the issue!
Tactic to excuse charges being dropped After years of silence on such matters Apandi made his surprise intervention claiming that the prosecutor leading the case against Najib in the 1MDB trial, Gopal Sri Ram, was somehow compromised because, according to Apandi, Sri Ram asked him whilst he was Attorney General to proceed against Najib over 1MDB back before the GE14 election. In short, it appears that Sri Ram, a former federal judge, had advised Apandi to do his job. It may seem a stretch, but the coup conspirators need some sort of fig leaf to excuse evident plans to use the hijacking of the Malaysian government to drop the multiple charges of theft against Najib and fellow UMNO warlords and it seems they have chosen this. Naturally, they have made their attack as aggressive as possible suggesting that it is Mahathir and Sri Ram* who should be jailed, not the man who accepted stolen billions of public money into his private bank accounts. According to the police report, placed by UMNO Supreme Council Member Lokman Adam (who has been charged with contempt for threatening witnesses at Najib’s trial): “The previous AG Tan Sri Apandi revealed a part of his book that Gopal Sri Ram, a retired Judge, had passed on Dr Mahathir’s request that Apandi arrest and charge Najib, the PM at that time. When asked why Najib had to be arrested and charged, Gopal replied that this was to be done for no reason as many people would like it. The actions of Gopal were treacherous because they were tantamount to bringing down a legitimate government. Apandi’s revelations are serious and worry me because as soon as Dr. Mahathir became PM, he appointed Gopal Sri Ram as the prosecutor involving the cases of Najib and Rosmah. The purpose of this report is to enable the police to investigate the truth of Apandi’s statement in view of the fact that he has CCTV coverage as proof and also witnesses in support. If true, Dr, Mahathir and Gopal Sri Ram have to face justice.” [English translation] This may seem ridiculous, however Najib’s artful lawyers will doubtless concoct a tale of prejudice over which they plan to troop into their newly appointed AGs office to demand charges be dropped. Then they will hope for relative plain sailing steered by money and connections.
Najib makes new attempt to disqualify Sri Ram as prosecutor
Once ‘Bosku’ is back and distributing his stolen cash again, according to this script, charges can indeed be brought against all the people who earlier sought to bring him to book. Ideally, they will hope to achieve all this without calling Parliament at all (it has already been illegally prorogued under ’emergency’ declarations by the PM without a mandate). If necessary, they will aim for a Covid election inflamed by the racial tensions they have stoked for years to cover up their criminal activities. This move doesn’t get Najib off his SRC case, of course, which has a separate legal team or Rosmah off her cases either. However, now the ball is set rolling the legal network is already abuzz with talk of pressure being brought to bear in all directions. This was how Najib/BN operated pre-GE14 as the country knows. They think money and establishment friends will help them pull it off. Rosmah herself has set the tone, with the angry announcements emerging yesterday that her Hermes bag collection (which she has plainly been set on getting back) has been tainted by markers made by police. They are branded forever as criminal items, which might spoil it for her if she tried to sport them publicly once more. An independent police force would, of course, dismiss this discredited UMNO bigwig’s interventions. BN/PN bullies will press their case with Najib’s high stakes gamble to overturn the verdict of GE14 and cheat the rule of law. - Sarawak Report

Rishton Ka Chakravyuh (Episodes 65, 66) - Can we calm down with the Bollywood music?
October 23 & 24, 2017
Listen, all I want to do is keep up with my daily dose of Anami and Satarupa. IS THAT TOO MUCH TO ASK FOR.
Anyway, we’re doing 2 episodes together, cos whattodo about my asli dunya.
Right off the bat, fucken Harry, nincompoop cousin of the nincompoop Avdhoot, shows his kameenapan by grabbing Poonam with 2 of Avdhoot’s lame friends and trying to rape her in a billiards room.
Hereon, if there was ANY doubt about how they’re subverting (admittedly hamhandedly but I’ll take it) the traditional hero-heroine roles in a desi soap, may they be forever laid to rest.
Anami A) finds Poonam’s bracelet that she’d given her on the floor outside the billiard room.
Tumblr media
B) bursts into the room in silent, shaking rage and a teary Poonam runs to her and hugs her for comfort.
Tumblr media
C) after the two chelas run away, knowing what’s good for them, thrashes Harry within an inch of his life.
Tumblr media
D) grabs a reluctant Poonam’s hand and drags them in front of everyone and makes Harry apologise to Poonam.
Tumblr media
(LMAO that girl in blue at the back is the same Mean Girl who’d picked on Anami on her first day of college and later claimed to have befriended her. Good to see we invite friends and not complete randos.)
Ofc Kamini plays the typical upper caste/class bitchy slut-shaming aunty and humiliates Poonam and tries to blame it on her. Anami tries to talk sense into her but Kamini threatens to blow it out of proportion. And THEN.
Everyone’s Godmother Satarupa steps in. She gives Kamini false hope by saying, yes, it was Poonam’s fault.
And then finishes the sentence with “it was her fault ki Poonam didn’t give him a tight slap the very first time Harry tried to molest her and that she didn’t do what Anami did.” (Which is a very problematic thing to say, but very dramatically effective.)
Tumblr media
Man, she put the fear of GOD in Harry by stalking toward him. Matlab, I could momentarily SEE a genetic resemblance between Narayani Shastri and Mahima Makwana, I tell you. What powerhouses.
She finished the whole scene by telling Kamini that she should thank her lucky stars Anami found Harry and not Satarupa herself because...
She literally leaves off there and we must infer that Kamini knows about Satarupa’s tendency to quietly get people who sneeze wrong bumped off.
Ofc Pujan tries to smooth things over while Kamini leaves with Harry. Ngl Kamini is a real babe and deserves better than to be married to this useless scheming Pujan and have a useless grown ass son and nephew. She shoulda gotten herself a sugar daddy instead.
Pujan promises deep vengeance (ofc because the Durga idol falling and breaking will be the ultimate apshakun and hence, revenge). Rolled my eyes so hard, they almost fell out of their sockets.
So, we have full band baaja and they’re bringing the idol in with shots that have come out of a white person’s wet dream of colourful, exotic Incredible India.
And OMG IT HAS A HALF OF A SECOND EXPRESSION ON ITS FACE. I mean the very pointless Baldev ofc.
Tumblr media
Anami, our local Spiderman, notices a thorn stuck in one of the palanquin bearers feet amid all the chaos and bends to pick it out. Giving herself the perfect vantage point to also hear the loosened screw drop out and immediately dive under the palanquin to save the idol.
After a moment of panic, everyone is reassured as she emulates the Flavour of the Season, Baahubali.
Tumblr media
No, seriously.
Tumblr media
Like, people don’t even TRY to help this skinny SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD girl who has been FASTING all day to carry this massive idol that probably weighs more than her for the first 5 minutes. For show.
Then, we get Baldev grabbing one end and Satarupa grabbing the other end and Dadaji Vikram clearing the dropped embers in her path with his stick.
Not before he’s had time to process the whole thing and question his entire life and worldview, though.
How Hum Saath Saath Hai. If it was made by Ram Gopal Verma.

This is the face of a man who has messed up very badly all his life and only the tip of the iceberg has become visible to him and he suspects the presence of the Titanic wrecking monster below the surface.
Gayatri makes obvious statements about Anami being deviroop and being sent to protect Lal Mahal etc etc. Lady, I don’t think it’s quite going to pan out like that.
Anami places the idol in its spot and when the pandit wants her to start the pooja, Vikram is all “no, Avdhoot must do the puja.”
Once a chauvinist piece of trash, always a chauvinist piece of trash.
He does look shifty while saying it, though so Gayatri swoops in and tells him that this puja wouldn’t even be happening if not for Anami so he can stop being  a jackass. And also tells Pujan to shut it when he tries to intervene. With the happy result that Anami gets to do the puja. Which we’re made to suffer through with dramatic intercuts of Sudha wild-dancing with dhunuchi at her asylum all set to Jai Maa Kali from Karan Arjun.
I wish I was making this bit up.
Just going to leave these screencaps here because truly what cinematography but what jaatra-level writing, shyah.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Note that Baldev has reverted to his usual stony glum-face. Like, why do they even pay an actor for his role.)
Dheeru makes a lone entry and skulks around. He joins the family conclave that forms after the puja where the adults talk about the future of Lal Mahal. Gayatri, Satarupa and Dheeru are all heavily and vocally pro-Anami and want Vikram to change his mind about Avdhoot. They use major puja metaphors to make their point. Pujan is stuck because he doesn’t want to be seen rooting for his son for selfish reasons while no one cares about what Baldev has to say (nothing), as usual. The man is an irritating cardboard cutout.
But THEN, I am reminded of why I fucken love this show and am still surprised by it when they tone it all the fuck down and VIKRAM makes the most logical point of all.
He points out that he’s willing to back down from all his prejudices and accept Anami as heir. But that will not change that Anami will not accept this family as her own. Royal Steel and Lal Mahal need stability which she will not provide because she has been uprooted from the only place she considers home (Benaras) and she will leave the moment she is legally able to. They need to accept that.
Tumblr media
Yeah, Gayatri, even I hate it when chauvinist men make sorta vaguely legitimate points.
But then, Dheeru points out that he hasn’t given Anami that chance even. He’s sentenced her without allowing her the slightest room to prove herself.
AND THEN, Vikram finally relents because “Dheeru has never made a wrong decision for Royal Steel.” Whoa I think he’s referring even to the unexplained fall Dheeru took and went to jail for.
He says ki since Avdhoot has been given a chance to prove himself (LOL WHAT WHEN DID HE PROVE HIMSELF HE’S LITERALLY DONE THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF PROVING HIMSELF ALL THROUGH GODDAMN SAVARNA PATRIARCHS), Anami should also.
Vikram will personally test the two of them and judge based on their capability (sure) and not their gender and take it from there. I can’t explain how much all this talk of (fake) meritocracy and inheritance gives me intense michmichi.
But it does lead to this hilarious scene which explains exactly how the two main interested parents feel about this situation.
Tumblr media
Satarupa is like “I’ve already fucking won this just give Anami the crown and don’t go through this farce.” And Pujan is like “GOD FUCK ME SIDEWAYS.”
Oh btw, while this intense conversation is happening, Adhiraj and Tanya have arrived and all the kids start dancing to Nagada Sang Dhol (INCLUDING ADHIRAJ which is EXACTLY as awkward as you imagine it is). Can’t even screencap, I’m telling you. Avdhoot is genuinely at least in lust with Tanya? (YUCK) Harry is giving him advice upar se! Matlab MEN ARE TRASH. He was beaten up not 4 hours ago for being an almost-rapist. I hope Adhiraj beats both Avdhoot and Harry up solid (I won’t even consider it police brutality). Where is Ila, man? Why is she missing the awkward fun?
Also, I was mistaken. Everyone is aware of everyone’s identities, it seems. There is no surprise at Adhiraj’s appearance and Avdhoot clearly knows Tanya is his sister so they know he’s Dheeru’s son? Dheeru also had figured out that the girl he met on the road is Anami of Lal Mahal. I dunno, I may have missed stuff when I tried to catch up on 40 episodes together. But then why were Pujan and Baldev treating Adhiraj as just a CBI officer when he brought Anami home after the chemistry lab accident? Surely they should’ve brought up his connection to Dheeru to taunt him better?
Possible continuity errors, methinks. ANyWay, tomorrow we have nutty Sudha’s desperate bid to force Anami’s hand and come to Lal Mahal by trying to commit fake suicide. Fun. Not. Honestly, Sudha and Baldev deserve each other and Satarupa needs an intense, powerful, interesting man who has some conflict of interest with her but is also drawn to her. And while we deserve decent women friendships, I also am teetering on shipping Anami and Poonam because that was some relationship-y symbolism in the beginning. 
Whatevs man, just give me Satarupa and Anami (and Gayatri) dealing sick burns to the men and I don’t care about anything else.
