Mythology

I’ve been pondering this question for a little while. About 3 months back, I saw the Netflix animated series Kurukshetra. In it, when the Pandavas had to bring down Dronacharya, finding it difficult Krishna suggested to Yuddhistira that he lie (Aswatthama hato hata). It’s only when Yuddhistira refuses to lie that Krishna asks him to tell a half truth (Nara ba Gunjara). My question is how can a God endorse lying, when the Mother herself has forbidden us to lie?β˜ΈοΈπŸŽπŸΉβš”οΈ

During family discuss about god and the creation. I said that Divine Mother is the Mother of all gods and Lord Sri Aurobindo is the Father of them all. And Sri Aurobindo is Kalki Avatar. So my aunt asked if he is the Kalki Avatar he must be the 10th Avatar of Vishnu so he must have came out of Vishnu as Lord Krishna was and must be lower in consciousness which I know is not true.

What does this mean? “This is indeed the note of Bengali literature and the one high thing it has gained from a close acquaintance with European models. The hideous grotesques of old Hindu Art, the monkey-rabble of Ram and the ten heads of Ravan, are henceforth impossible to it.”Sri Aurobindo has spoken highly of Valmiki’s aesthetics.. then what does this “hideous-grotesque” refer to here?πŸΉβ˜€οΈπŸŒ³πŸ’

Here he is mainly referring to Bankim’s imagery in which Sri Aurobindo finds ‘beauty, terseness, strength and sweetness’. The hideousness is not about Valmiki’s Ramayana.

Gopis loved Krishna but all of them except Radha experienced all the typical elements of lower nature such as jealousy, longing to tie him near them, possessiveness and all the rest. It is the typical human love transfered towards the Divine. That is why perhaps the personality of Radha has been brought in. Of course Radha does exist but in the Bhagawat she does not find a direct mention. Radha’s love is entire self-giving. Is it little wonder that Sri Krishna reveals the one and only Gita only to Arjuna, calls him His eternal Companion as Nara- Narayana. 🦚πŸͺˆπŸŒΈπŸΉ

Once I attended a study circle & listened there from a speaker that Arjuna had the ego. During bishad yoga when he left his gandiva dhanu then Sri Krishna taught him about dharma… The speaker in the study circle told that Arjuna had the ego that Sri Krishna & everybody would consider him as the great yodhha. Without Arjuna to fight it is quite impossible. Is it true? Or he had the emotions towards his brothers (kouravas)?πŸΉβš”οΈπŸŽ―πŸŽπŸ›ž

If one has always experienced a childhood intimacy with Krishna as a friend and playmate, what does it signify when a natural, gradual shift occurs toward Mahadev (Shiva), and how can this “sneaking in” of a new divine presence be understood as an evolution of the soul’s relationship with the Divine rather than a replacement of the old? πŸͺˆπŸ¦šπŸ„πŸ’™πŸ•‰οΈπŸŒ‘

This is a question from my mother. After listening to your talk about the Mother’s Aspects in Savitri, she wanted to know about Ashta LakshmiΒ and what they represent. Also, what was their role as the eight wives of Sri Krishna? What is the difference between their love and Radha’s love for Sri Krishna? πŸ‘°πŸΌπŸ¦šπŸ˜ŠπŸ™πŸ»πŸŒ·
