felt miserable but could not speak a word,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Again and again she hugged the child, her voice was choked with emotion and found tongue tied,

The mother of the universe, the all knowing Bhavani, then spoke the following soft words, which brought delight to her mother,

Listen, Mother, I relate to you a vision which I saw, A handsome and fair complexion noble Brahman gave me the following exhortation, 

Recognizing the truth of Narada's words go and practice penance, austerity is conductive to joy, and put an end to sorrow, and evils, hearing these words the mother was filled with wonder, she sent for Himachal and communicated her vision, consoling her parents Uma set out for penance joyously, parents felt miserable but could not speak a word,

Jai Mahadev 

Put away all anxiety

 Jai Sri Ram,

Put away all anxiety, my dear, said Himachal to his consort, fix your mind on the thoughts of Lord, 

He alone who has created the Parvati will bring her happiness, now if you cherish any love for your child, then go, and admonish her that she should practice austerity which will bring about her union with Shiva, there is no other way of overcoming sorrow, 

The words of Narada are pregnant and full of reason, Shiva is handsome and limit of beauty, mine of virtues, recognizing this truth do not entertain any misgiving, Shiva is irreprochable in everyway

Hearing the words from her consort Maina felt delighted at heart, she at once rose and went where Giriza Was, at the sight of Uma tears rushed to her eyes and she affectionately took the girl in her lap, 

Jai Siya Ram

Sri Mahashivratri Today

 

threshold of Mahashivratri,

 Jai Sri Ram,

The most auspicious chapter of Shiv cult in the name of Mahashivratri is just at threshold of life,

Designated day for devotees and aspirants in quest of truth and the cause, 

Know Shiva to be an ultimate truth that embodiment of cause, the ultimate destination of Atman in embodied reality,

Circumstances and objects appear to be relative, could be referral or perennial, but the Truth of Mahashivratri is different that above the horizon of cause and effect, circumstances and  the objects, is purely meant to relate the Atman in truth with Parmatama, in serene cult of self through mild application of self in truth with discipline of the day, 

Jai Siya Ram

Sri Ekadasi Today

 

all will now turn out well,

 Jai Sri Ram,

Shiva is known for being bestower of boons, is dispeller of the agony of the suppliant, an ocean of benevolence and the delight of devotees,

Without propitiating Shiva the object of one's desire cannot ne attained through millions of Yogic practices, and Japa,

So saying and with thought fixed on Sri Hari Narada gave his blessings to Girija, and said, Shed all fear, O lord of Mountains, all will now turn out well,

Having spoken thus, the sage returned to the abode of Brahma, Maina said to Himachal, my lord I could not follow the words of Narada, Uma is dear to me as my life, if we fail to secure a match worthy of Girija, everyone will say Himalaya is dull by nature, Said Himachal, sooner shall the moon amit flames of the fire than the prophecy of Narada prove untrue, 

Jai Siya Ram,

Holy men never drink wine

 Jai Sri Ram,

Holy men never drink wine even if to know that it has been made of water from Ganga, but the same wine becomes pure when it is poured into Ganga,

The difference between the individual soul and the God should be similarly explained, Shiva is all powerful by nature, for he is no other than God, 

Hence matrimony with him will prove to be auspicious in everyway, Shiva is difficult to propitiate but is known for quickly please if earnest prayer is made,

Shiva alone can erase the lines of fate, even though there are many suitors in the world, there is no match for her except Shiva,

Jai Siya Ram
