Search of Truth Part 40 updated page 149 - Page 32

@shruthiravi, Well, Dusky wanted to Maya's place, right? Now at night Dusky is scared. At night Dusky doesn't sleep😆😆😆

Maya believes the Rakshas will swallow the Rajkumar & Rajkumari!
Will her story come true or not, one has to wait for a while, to find it out!!
But the rakshas is not going away a day soon!
Maya's death sentence is revoked for her extremely 'good conduct & behaviour' after her sentencing- such as her attempts to escape prison, kidnap her husband, try to commit suicide, set ablaze prison, refusal to eat and finally numerous attempts to kill Saanjh sitting in Jail etc. etc!
So, she deserves naturally, some leniency as 'a model citizen' who abides by the law of land all throughout in her life! No surprises for that!
Only the Sharmas , Mathurs & a certain Jhanvi Mehrotra are in shock when the ghee spills first & then the fear spills all around as the ever- obliging- news-reporter hits once again covering Maya's death . . . no, sorry . . . her life story exclusively, in their mobile!
Is the apasagun for real?
Talking about saguns & apasaguns, one remembers the fire that engulfed ArYa's marriage !
Maya's shadhi was marked with a real fire accident & the mandap was in flames!
Saanjh too has her date with fire but fortunately her bridal dress does not catch fire as she escapes narrowly!
On Maya's wedding a rakshas was killed who looked dangerous to a newly married couple!
On Saanjh's wedding a rakshas is spared who is still looking dangerous to yet another newly married couple!
If killing a rakshas is a good sagun, then what can one say when Ashwin fell dead on the holy fire pot in front of newly married couple, then?!
At least here thankfully, no death is likely to happen either in the mandap or anywhere! Jhanvi is still surviving to witness her adopted daughter's wedding!
Not even in Jail, as a new rakshas is lurking & smirking-a real & deadly threat to Saanjh & Arjun!
If, sparing the life of another rakshas is going to be an apasagun, then, so be it!

Will Maya's badala fructify?
The story started on a Vijaya Dashami day!
A day marks the Victory of Good over Evil!
Don't know if the show will last till the coming Vijaya dashami!
But, one thing is sure!

Whenever rakshas finally leaves Maya's demented mind
Whenever maya-the illusion leaves our blinded eyes
Whenever Maya Mehrotra gets her closure in life
That is the day peace and joy set to return!

And truly, it will be a Vijaya Dashami day, once again!

Did Arjun seriously ask "Mujhpar bharosa hai? " 🤣

@dexter Arjun was so sure Maya will die. He was telling Maya is counting her last breath. Look what happened. So much for believing what Arjun tells 😆😆 and he himself tells I am in PHD in telling lies. Dont worry Maya will come again and again into their lives.

@fernandes Vijayadasami is a day when Durga killed Mahishashur, if you take concept wise it is the day the divine feminine showed its ultimate power on the masculine which believed feminine cannot defeat it.

And Saanjheshwari Devi said "Khudse Zyada" . 🤣

Arjun (aka pendulum) ne ab tak aisa kaunsa kaam kiya hai jisse koi bhi uspe bharosa kar sake. LOL. W*F. Do they seriously write such dialogues to make us laugh at this childish couple? 😆

Duffer was/is fairly consistent on his support to dusky, since Prem's death! And perhaps one can say that their relationship became gradually stronger-since then- much to the annoyance of Maya!
Saanjh was also not aware, when she made that remark, that Maya would eventually escape her death! She could have just hoped that the pendulum might as well stop swinging other way, if there is no Maya!

Well, in a lighter vein I feel it could be a 'relative' statement!
Saanjh has no faith in her at all of late, so when she made that kudh se zyada remark, it is to be taken with a pinch of salt! Arjun is marginally better only because the stunt man saved her umpteen times when she habitually got herself into one crisis after other!!

In other words it is also the day a woman killed a man's ego which got the boon that no man can kill him, because he believed a woman anyways will not be capable of killing him. So if the vijayadashami concept is deployed it will be ego of a man that will be killed. It will be feminine winning over the masculine.

I agree that is one way of looking at it!
Other way of looking at it- is that three goddesses combined their might after a long war lasting nine days, with a hard toil of fasting- finally managed to kill an asura giving relief to all!
Traditionally it is celebrated as a day of victory of good over bad!
It is unification of good forces to fight an evil than anything else! Mahishasura with an animal head was certainly egoistic &, arrogant! But he was bad for all! It was beyond a gender classification, in my opinion!

But I have no issues, if you think, that is what it is!

@fernandes every mytho story is about perception breaking, illusion breaking. Asuras in any form has perception that is why they take boons and the God come in the form which they thought not possible to defeat them and kill them. So when we take concept of any story, we take it from the boon and boon breaking.

For Mahisharua it was his perception that a woman cannot defeat him, Durga broke it. A woman himself defeated it.

For Mahishi it was her belief that son of Hari and Hara is not possible, ie son of Vishnu and Shiva. But Vishnu becomes Mohini and Ayyappa is born and her death comes to her.

For Ravana his boon was he will not be killed humans and monkeys as he considered them far less powerful to kill a powerful man like him. Narayan comes as Ram crossing the ocean, along with Rudra's amsavatar Hanuman and finishes off that perception.

If you go to Hiranyakashyapu how many of his perceptions Narayan breaks with Narasimhaavatar. This man had the boon he will not be killed during day and night, neither inside nor outside, neither man or animal, nor devas or asuras, neither on earth nor on sky, neither with hands nor with weapons. Narasimha comes at dusk, takes him to threshold, keeps him on his lap, and kills him with his nails. The most painful death you can imagine.

So if you take any mytho story it is not good over evil. It is the idea of perceived truth vs actual truth. It always shows asuras has perceived truths and Narayan's job is to ensure that perceived truth meets its end at the right time.

And it depends on what concept you take, you will see the perceived truth and actual truth of the situation.

If it is Vijayadashami it is the victory of feminine over masculine. If it is Dusshera it is the victory of a man over an asur, if you take Diwali, it is celebrated as Ram returning to Ayodhya or freedom for those ladies from Narakasura's prison , basically it is returning of light after darkness. Freedom after captivity.

Sanathana Dharma has its concepts, and each story, each festival is connected with the concept. That's why there are so many stories, but in the end everything is about freedom from darkness, freedom from illusions, freedom from perceived truth.

As the line goes tamosama jyothirgamaya

Asothama satgamaya

Mrityoma Amruthamgamaya.

Guide me from darkness to light, guide me from lie to truth and guide me from death to life. Paths different, but theme same. Whichever path taken, that path has to be consistent.

Thanks @shruthiravi!
There were a few things I did not know so far & your post was very informative! .
I am happy that my post could generate such a spin-off benefit- very enlightening write-up on Hindu Mythology!
