"If you want to live a happy life, tie it to a goal; not to people or things."
Albert Einstein
Mahishasoor-Mardini Durga is believed to be a merger of all goddesses into a supreme deity designed to destroy evil. An embodiment of a mother, a daughter, a sister who stands against tyranny, injustice and evil.
Lord Ganesh got his elephant head as replacement from his own father Lord Shiva whom he had the audacity to prevent entering the residential chamber while Ganesh's mother Parvati was bathing. He has been the God of Wisdom and again symbolic to standing up against what one believes is wrong.
Brothers Raam-Laxaman were great examples of respect towards ones elders, parents, brothers, friends, colleagues, and soldiers.
Shri Krishna is believed to be the greatest warrior and king - the friend, guide, philosopher and mentor to the Pandavas and one of the strongest proponent of the ideology of 'dharma first' - Saam, Daam, Dand, Bhed !
Enough examples! Why have I all of a sudden went into sharing about our Gods after just above 4 months of not blogging? Well, because another of our 'God' is about to say good-bye!
