The skies had been torn apart.A fierce Goddess had opened her third eye. Lakshmi,Saraswathi.Karthik,Gan
"The dark thunder clouds that cover the firmament are Devi Durga's long ebony curly tresses said Ma."The embodiment of love and compassion is on a mission today," she added.
A little girl, listened to the tales that Ma wove so b
eautifully.and
each time as Ma said something new,her curiosity would be aroused
further.A clever Ma went on to say "Her empire extends over the vast
expanse of the skies and across the earth. The Universe is her
creation,it belongs to her and equally to all her children.Her
benevolence reaches the good and the needy.She is an image of pure love
and pure love alone , can appease her.She will not tolerate evil in any
form and hence she is there out in the skies,raging a fierce battle to
vanquish an evil demon "...Ma went on .......
Mahisasur was causing untold miseries to the Devas in the heavens and also on innocent men,women and children on earth."The Goddess has taken this incarnation to establish the victory of good over evil....Shall we continue the .Navrathri celebrations in anticipation of her victory ?"...a loving mother asked her child.."Oh ! Yes ! Ma !Please "..."Remember we also have a job to calm an angry Goddess "...the mother added.
As I went about my Navrathri assigned work today,I remembered her words."Light a Kuthivilakku every day and maintain an Akhanda deepam ,"she would say....The Sundal is important too.The Goddess will be pleased.Make a special payasam every day and offer it to the Devi."
Words of advice have not fallen on deaf ears.A well illuminated temple is a pleasure to behold to the eyes and the ambience turns divine on its own.
It rained heavily last night....and continued till the early morning hours.As thunder and lightning struck intermittently, I was wondering if Ma was indeed right.....Earlier in the evening.and for the past few days,news channels have been agog with tales of extortion and amassment of dispropportionate assets in the form of real estate......
I was bewildered."Far above,beyond the horizons,Devi Durga must be quite annoyed," I muttered to myself....."She has perhaps taken upon an onerous task yet again and hence the unabated growls ,"I thought...
Unable to battle out tenhandedly ,has she deputed thousands like her,to cleanse and purify the self styled empires ?".......I wondered .
I chuckled.....Unable to hide my laughter I told myself AAH !"That's another story to be handled later,"...I better send out the Golu invites right now ...& That is PRIORITY....:-)
