#laxmi x vishnu

[ssj2hindudude]

Vishnu: I don't really eat much. I prefer to eat "light" meals😏

Laxmi: Alright, we can just have snacks tonight.

Vishnu, thinking she doesn't get it: O-oh, sure-

Laxmi: And first thing I'm having is you😏

*Vishnu turns purple*

My humble offerings for pride month - A Shiva-Mohini tale + Lakshmi at the end! Many thanks to @samissobsessed for reminding me about them :)

Also, just so you know, canon-timeline died a very painful death when I threw it out of the window with my own hands!

1.

The first time Shiva sees Mohini, she is just emerging from the group of entranced Asuras with the pot of nectar. Parvati, still rubbing his burning throat, pauses her ministrations to see what has caught his attention.

“Ah,” she says, eyes glittering, when she sees the divine beauty, “is she not pretty, Arya?”

Shiva thinks ‘pretty’ does not even begin to describe her. Mohini is short and dark, lissom limbs corded with lean muscles, and open hair rolling all the way down to her calves. With her dimpled cheeks and long lashes, she looks very unlike Vishnu, whom Shiva knows and dotes upon. For a moment, Shiva is possessed by a strange desire to speak to her, certain that even Saraswati’s songs would not match the sweetness of her voice, and he is almost jealous of the Asuras.

Parvati’s laughter brings him back to earth, to the mountain no longer churning, and Vasuki slithering wearily around his shoulders.

“My dear Vasuki,” his wife says, eyes crinkled with amusement, “leave your lord to his musings, now that Kama, rascal that he is, has decided to strike my poor husband once again.”

“No!” Shiva says, louder than he had intended, and blushes. “No,” he repeats, “it is nothing like that.”

The excuse sounds weak even to his own ears. Parvati laughs harder. Shiva decides the next time he gets hold of Kamadeva, there would be no return from the burning.

As if Kama striking him was not enough, Rati shows up on Kailash the following week, eyes bright with mischief.

2.

“We won the war easily,” she tells Gauri, as if that was what she had come to discuss all along.

Shiva does not trust her one bit. He is proven correct when Rati follows that up with, “It is all because of lovely Mohini. Did you see how she charmed the Asuras?”

“Of course we did. Arya was very interested,” says the traitor previously known as Gauri, Shiva's wife.

“Was he?” Rati covers her smile with a coy palm. “Of course he was! Such beauty, such grace! Why, I feared if this went on unchecked, I would lose my place as Goddess of... you know.”

Gauri throws him an amused wink, barely holding back her teasing delight. “I do know,” she agrees.

3.

Shiva pretends that this time, he will stick to his resolve of never speaking to his wife again.

“She is alone now!” Kali says, bouncing excitedly next to him. “You should go take your chance! Shoot your shot! Ask to court her!”

“I am your husband,” Shiva says exasperated, even as he laughs at her antics. “Are you not even a little jealous?”

Kali ignores his question and rolls right over him. “Maybe you shall have a babe, the sweetest child in all the three worlds! What if it is a boy? With her dark face and your dreadful hair? Or a girl? Oh my, please let it be a girl.”

“That is Vishnu,” Shiva tries, ignoring the comment about his dreadful hair. “Your brother. Why are you like this?”

Kali waves a dismissive hand. “She is my sister, not my brother. Besides, any sister worth her salt would aid her sibling’s pursuit of a gentleman.”

The words warm Shiva’s heart more than Surya’s fire ever can. “You think I am a gentleman?”

Gauri turns her nose up at him and points to the enchantress. “Not if you do not go after her.”

Shiva does as he is told. After all happy wives make for happy lives.

It is incredibly easy for Kali to tell him to ‘shoot his shot’ from cold Kailash, but as Shiva soon finds out, it is significantly more difficult than it looks.

4.

For one, Mohini takes one look at him and starts running. She is not even fleeing from him – Shiva would never pursue a woman who did not want his company – she merely appears to enjoy teasing him. This lines up with what Shiva knows of Vishnu. What does not line up is the crowd of gods gathered in the clouds, cheering them on. Cheering him onwards.

“This is mortifying,” he calls out to Mohini, as Kama and Vasanta drop flowers on them, and Vayu makes their clothes flutter dramatically. “Stop, I beg you!”

Mohini only laughs. It is the dearest sound in all the world – sweet as the nectar she stole for the gods, breathless as Ganga at Gangotri, and delirious as Varuni's newly brought sura. Shiva feels Rati’s pull upon his ascetic self, and willingly lets it consume him.

Mohini’s joy is worth the pain of Kama’s love.

Afterwards, they lie together in a shadowed glade, beneath a blossoming Kadamba tree. The air carries the scent of spring flowers and oncoming rain, and their shared affection.

5.

Shiva rolls around to look at her, at Mohini, Mistress of Illusions, and asks quietly, “Are you alright?”

Mohini laughs. It is more breathless than it was before, but it is still the most delightful sound in the world.

“Of course I am,” she says, making sparkling patterns in the air. “But I will demand recompense for my torn necklace - and you may not have any help this time.”

Shiva finds himself smiling as well. He reaches out a hand, all the way from the earthly air to the gardens of the divine, plucking lotuses from Indra's pond. Then, from the weaver spider he borrows a silken thread and strings it through the flowers.

“Will you have this?” he asks Mohini, offering her the garland.

“Mighty ascetic,” says the enchantress, “any gift from you I shall treasure and wear all my immortal life.”

Mohini is visiting them on Kailash on Lakshmi comes to see Uma. She is a little miffed to be drawn away from Ayyappa, sure, but the new goddess is good company, and Uma is eager to be her friend.

+1.

Mistress Wealth is an indescribable beauty, with her gold-bright face and ruby lips, and her hair a riot of obsidian curls. Her smile, bright as Varuna's best pearls, widens when she sees Uma.

“Greetings,” Lakshmi calls, waving a dainty hand. “It has been a while.”

“It has indeed,” Uma pulling her to the side. “Shiva is with the baby. Come meet Ayyappa!”

“You had a child?” Lakshmi lights up. "Oh, oh, may I see him?”

“Of course!” Uma shakes her head and adds, “His mother is Mohini.”

Lakshmi furrows her brows. “Who is- ” she begins, and then stops.

Uma turns to look back at her, bewildered, only to find Lakshmi staring at Vishnu-Mohini, who has emerged from the antechamber at the sound of voices. They are also in the process of swapping between forms – male one moment, female the next.

Uma swallows her laughter at Lakshmi's besotted look, turns to her sibling and gestures at the quick changes. “Why are you doing... this? My head hurts from looking at you.”

“You wound me!” Vishnu-Mohini clutches their chest dramatically, which is hampered by the fact that their breast swells one moment and disappears the next. “I must find out which form looks most pleasing on me. Oh, who is this lovely goddess?”

Lakshmi stirs as if from a trance, and immediately blurts out, “Are you married?”

“Not yet.” Mohini winks at her. “Are you proposing? Where are my gifts?”

Lakshmi holds out her hand and pulls an ornament from thin air – a weighty necklace of garnet-studded gold – and offers it to Mohini with the most serious look Uma has ever seen on the restless goddess's face.

“Marry me,” she says, “and you shall have my heart and mind and all treasures of land and sea.”

Mohini takes it, eyes gleaming. “I like chasing and being chased.”

Lakshmi's mien softens, and mischief returns to her face. “Good thing then,” she laughs at last, “that we have similar tastes.”

[h0bg0blin-meat]

Gib me Mohini x Chanchal headcanons cuz that's mah parents and newda know dem :3

So in this AU Mohini is an avatar and not just a changeable form.

When Mohini first saw Chanchal in the forest she already knew she was Vishnu, and hence the way her jaw dropped cuz obv she realized it was Lakshmi. Chanchal saw her frozen in enchantment and at the time he wasn't aware it was Mohini (cuz he wasn't enlightened yet) so he approached her but Mohini ran away so fast and he was just like "......Well that was weird."

The next time they meet is in Chanchal's palace where Mohini was invited for a party his dad had thrown. Chanchal sees her again while greeting the guests and she just shies away. He smiles affectionately but doesn't try to talk. It was only after a while when he's really curious and just approaches her while she's talking to her maiden friends.

"Hi um. I hope you remember me. In the forest?"

Mohini is frozen again. She doesn't know why. She has always been the enchantress kind, not the enchantee but somehow not a word comes out of her mouth without stuttering in front of him.

"I-yeah um *clears throat* mhm?"

Chanchal is melted with the way she's shy and like asks if they can talk if that's okay and she gives in. "Getchur act together, Mohini!"

So they talk and eventually they fall in love. Mohini is actually surprised Chanchal didn't go head-over-heels for her instantly, contrary to what usually happens to others.

Now actual hcs

Chanchal is OBVIOUSLY the bigger flirt.

You say anything unnecessarily bad about Mohini, Chanchal will find you. He's VERY protective when he needs to be and easy-going when he needs to be. Perfect balance.

Mohini confessed first. Chanchal may be flirtatious but he is one clueless blorbo. He flirts like no one's gonna take him seriously.

Mohini had a hard time convincing Chanchal was Lakshmi and when he found out he got very overwhelmed. Mohini took his head in her arms and solaced him. (Realization that yer a god is a hard pill to swallow after all)

And yeah that's pretty much it kinda shsjksjs

[quadranthinduism]

The trimurti in Hinduism is sometimes referred to by HIndus as the trinity of the Hindus. But the trimurti also becomes a quaternity in Hinduism. I have seen different examples for the transcendent fourth. I have read a book that described that the trimurti was a quaternity when the Mother Goddess was added. Another example is, those who worship Surya, the Sun God, see Surya as the transcendent fourth part of the trimurti. For the Surya worshippers, Surya encompasses the previous three deities in the trimurti. They say that the other three Gods are manifestations of Surya

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trimurti

Surely, if I had known them, I should have taught them to you. I will not lie, for he who lies perishes, root and all.”” The prince silently mounted his chariot and went away. So now I ask of thee, Where is the Self?’” (Prashna Upanishad 6:1).

According to many Hindus, like the Hare Krishna, Krishna originally had two quadruple expansions. According to these Hindus, Krishna is the supreme God. The two quadruple expansions are similar to the gnostic notion that in the beginning was two tetrads.

https://www.facebook.com/Knowyourgod/posts/501900056583733:0

First quadruple expansion

Karanadakashayi Vishnu [Maha-Vishnu]

Kshirodakashayi Vishnu [the Supersoul in each individual]

Garbhodakashayi Vishnu [the expansion in each universe]

Sesha, also called Seshanaga

These four create the material cosmic manifestation.

Krishna then expands himself into four forms. These four forms experience pastimes in Vrindavan. When studying Hare Krishna I would watch cartoons on the pastimes of Krishna. The cartoons consisted of these four characters, who are four forms of Krishna.

Krishna

Pradyumna

Balarama

Aniruddha

The Char Dham are four holy pilgrimage sites in Hinduism. They are mentioned in the Mahabarata

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Char_Dham

Badrinath

Puri

Rameswaram

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Char_Dham

The four pilgrimage sites above are for Vishnu. Shiva also has four pilgrimage sites associated with him.

The Vedic Priesthood consists of 16 members in four groups of four. Four groups of four is the quadrant model. The 16 members are four chief priests and their assistants.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vedic_priesthood

The hotṛ was the reciter of invocations and litanies. These could consist of single verses (ṛca), strophes (triples called tṛca or pairs called pragātha), or entire hymns (sukta), drawn from the ṛgveda. As each phase of the ritual required an invocation, the hotṛ had a leading or presiding role.[citation needed]

The udgātṛ was a chanter of hymns set to melodies (sāman) drawn from the sāmaveda. This was a specialized role in the major soma sacrifices: a characteristic function of the udgātṛ was to sing hymns in praise of the invigorating properties of soma pavamāna, the freshly pressed juice of the soma plant.[citation needed]

The adhvaryu was in charge of the physical details of the sacrifice (in particular the adhvara, a term for the Somayajna). According to Monier-Williams, the adhvaryu "had to measure the ground, to build the altar, to prepare the sacrificial vessels, to fetch wood and water, to light the fire, to bring the animal and immolate it," among other duties.[citation needed] Each action was accompanied by supplicative or benedictive formulas (yajus), drawn from the yajurveda. Over time, the role of the adhvaryugrew in importance, and many verses of the ṛgveda were incorporated, either intact or adapted, into the texts of the yajurveda.[citation needed]

The brahman was the reciter of hymns from the atharvaveda who was largely silent and observes the procedures and uses Atharvaveda mantras to 'heal' it when mistakes have been made.

With the hotṛ:

the maitrāvaruna

the acchāvāka

the grāvastut (praising the Soma stones)

With the udgātṛ:

the prastotṛ (who chants the Prastâva)

the pratihartṛ ("averter")

the subrahmanya

With the adhvaryu:

the pratiprasthātṛ

the neṣṭṛ

the unnetṛ (who pours the Soma juice into the receptacles )

With the brahman:

the brāhmanācchamsin

the agnīdh (priest who kindles the sacred fire)

the potṛ ("purifier")

The Hindus have a four caste system

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caste_system_in_India

Brahmins (priestly people)- mental. The first square is mental and good.

Vaishyas (artisans, merchants, tradesmen and farmers)- These are the doers.

Kshatriyas (also called Rajanyas, who were rulers, administrators and warriors). Homeostasis. The second square maintains order and structure. Rulers and administrators organize and order. Warriors protect.

Shudras (labouring classes).

The fourth caste was seen as different

http://www.dictionary.com/browse/twice-born

The three upper orders were “distinguished from the shudras”.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dvija

The Brahmins, the Kshatriyas, and the Vishyas are considered “twice born” but the shudras are not.

http://eighttwosix.blogspot.com/2010/03/indias-caste-system-socially-useful.html

Again the quadrant pattern in the caste system is fulfilled in that the first three castes are different from the fourth. Hindus say that they have a four caste system. There is a fifth element that is so different that it is not even really considered a caste. The fifth is always questionable and ultra transcendent. I described how Empedocles said that fire is the fourth different element. But fire still associates with air, water and Earth. The fifth, ultra transcendent element, aether, does not even interact with the first four. It is not even connected. The same holds true for the untouchables.

Ramakrishna had a teaching about four wise men and an elephant. The four wise men touched different parts of the elephant, and thought the elephant was the aspect they touched. Ramakrishna says that religion is like the elephant, and different religions understand a different part of the whole

One touched the leg of the elephant, and said, "The elephant is like a pillar."

The third touched the belly, and said, "The elephant is like a big jar."

The second touched the trunk, and said, "The elephant is like a thick stick or club."

The fourth touched the ears, and said, "The elephant is like a winnowing basket."

I have spoken to Hindus, and researched the chakras, and they are a four plus three pattern. The first four are different form the next three.

The four petals are said to represent the four elements. The four petals are also thought to represent the four vrittis

greatest joy

delight in controlling passion

natural pleasure

blissfulness in concentration

The four petals are also thought to represent the four goals of a Hindu, dharma (psycho-spiritual longing), artha (psychic longing), kama (physical longing) and moksha (longing for spiritual liberation.

The Vishuddha chakra is the fifth chakra. The chakra has 16 petals.

In Hinduism there are 16 abilities that a human can develop. An avatar is said to be perfect in all 16 abilities. There are 16 squares in the quadrant model. The sixteen petals are also argued to represent the 16 vowels in the sanskrit alphabet.

In yoga there is the swastika pose called the swastikaasana

Square breathing involves inhaling for four seconds, holding for four seconds, exhaling for four seconds, and then holding the breath out for four seconds and continuing. I attended a meditation event where the instructor had the class do square breathing some time last year. I did not even realize that what we were doing was quadrant oriented, until I looked it up afterwards and realized that the four components of the breath was a quadrant.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ashtakam

The stanzas in an "ashtakam" are a rhyming quartet with four lines, i.e. end lines rhyme as a-a-a-a. Thus, in an ashtakam generally thirty-two lines are maintained. All these stanzas follow a strict rhyme scheme. The proper rhyme scheme for an astakam is: a-a-a-a/b-b-b-b….. (/ represents a new stanza).

The conventions associated with the ashtakam have evolved over its literary history of more than 2500 years. One of the best known ashtakam writers was Adi Sankaracharya, who created an ashtakam cycle with a group of ashtakams, arranged to address a particular deity, and designed to be read both as a collection of fully realized individual poems and as a single poetic work comprising all the individual ashtakams. He wrote more than thirty astakams in stuti [dedication] to various deities.

The 8x8 (64) grid Manduka Hindu Temple Floor Plan, according to Vastupurusamandala. The 64 grid is the most sacred and common Hindu temple template. The bright saffron center, where diagonals intersect above, represents the Purusha of Hindu philosophy.[4][33]

The Brahma Padas, in the center, is a quadrant. There are four padas, the Brahma, the Devika, the Manusha, and the Paisachika.

The 9x9 layout still has four padas, but it extends the Brahma Padas.

The 9x9 (81) grid ‘’Parama Sayika’’ layout plan (above) found in large ceremonial Hindu Temples.

Agni, the God of fire in Hinduism, was associated with the swastika. When making a fire people use firesticks, and the sticks make a cross.

King Vajra then had 16 idols of Krishna and other gods carved from a rare, imperishable stone called Braja and built temples to house these idols in and around Mathura so as to feel the presence of Lord Krishna. The four presiding idols of Braja Mandala are Sri Harideva of Govardhan, Sri Keshava Deva of Mathura, Sri Baladeva of Baladeo, and Govindaji of Vrindavan. There are two Naths—Sri Nathji, who were originally at Govardhan and are now in Nathdwara, Rajasthan and Sri Gopinath, who is now in Jaipur. The two Gopals are Sri Madana Mohan, who is now housed at Karoli Rajasthan, and Sakshi Gopal, who is now moved to town of Sakshi Gopal, Orissa, near Puri. There are 16 squares in the quadrant model.

The show Information Please would have a transcendent fourth guest panelist.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_Please

Panel regulars included writer-actor-pianist Oscar Levant and newspaper columnists and renowned wits and intellectuals Franklin P. Adams and John Kieran. All the panelists were well-versed in a wide range of topics, though each had a specialty. Music and filmquestions were often addressed to Levant. Adams was well known for his mastery of poetry, popular culture and Gilbert and Sullivan. Kieran was an expert in natural history, sports and literature. A typical question would have three or four parts and would require the panelists to get a majority of the questions right, lest they lose the prize money.

The show would always have a fourth guest panelist, usually either a celebrity, a politician or writer. Guest panelists included Fred Allen, Leonard Bernstein, Boris Karloff, Clare Boothe Luce, Dorothy Parker, S. J. Perelman, Sigmund Spaeth, Rex Stout, Jan Struther, Deems Taylor, Jackie Robinson, Alexander Woollcott, George S. Kaufman, Ruth Gordon, Orson Welles, Basil Rathboneand a very young Myron "Mike" Wallace.

A variation of Information Please, this time a program devoted exclusively to music with the same four-member panel format, became popular when it was televised in Los Angeles in 1953. After two years of local success, Musical Chairs became a summer replacement series on NBC Television. The Bill Leyden-hosted game show lasted eleven weeks on the national airwaves.

To relive the blocked energies, centre of existence need to be balanced for well-being and better life. Our living place consists of five elements. Space which is the most important of all the five elements.

Air is governing element of North-west corner while fire is assigned the South-east because of its aggressive nature. Water is an element of North-east and earth is assigned with South-west. Likewise the human body is a crafted frame having an order of five elements called chakras which is balanced by external elements. The elements of living place need to be balanced akin we balance body’s elements with external material such as food and meditation.

Vastu Energy Balance Imbalance of elements can be corrected by the most subtle & higher element- space while defects in native place can be balanced or rectified using Vastu tools like wind chimes, energy pyramid and crystals. These Vastu tools helps rectifying negative energies and try subtle the ambience with positive prana.

A mandala (Sanskrit: मण्डल, literally "circle") is a spiritual and ritual symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism, representing the universe.[1] In common use, "mandala" has become a generic term for any diagram, chart or geometric pattern that represents the cosmos metaphysically or symbolically; a microcosm of the universe.

The basic form of most mandalas is a square with four gates containing a circle with a center point. Each gate is in the general shape of a T. Mandalas often exhibit radial balance.
