Devon Ke Dev Mahadev Written Update 19/6 Vishnuji enlightens Himavan - Page 2

One thing I was trying to get - when Parvati ran out that night and finally installed the dumroo on the trishul, was she barefoot 😲 That seemed brutal! One thing I thought was a boo-boo - how is the dumroo tied to Shiva's trishul w/ a cloth - I'd have expected it to have hooks w/ which it could be clamped on. This is after all a weapon, which in battle would have to go through all sorts of elements - fire, water, etc. If a cloth were a part of it, it would be incinerated.

But I like the precap, where Himavan is getting Parvati to serve Mahadev in advance. From what I've read, this is true to the story - Kama didn't appear in their first appearance - he appeared some time after the devas sent him. Incidentally, I'm still hoping for them to show the events that force the devas to send Kama-dev there - which is Tarakasura enslaving them.

Asura time please! 😆

I still have problems digesting that Himavan was a Vishnu, rather than a Shiva bhakt, and that Vishnu would have to explain to him something he already knew. Honestly, the conversations b/w Vishnu & Lakshmi don't impress me @ all! But one thing about Mena's objection today - when she asked Parvati whether any human can marry a god. Guess Parvati can't tell her 'Mom, I'm your mom - I'm Adi Shakti'.

As long as it's not Parvati, Himavan giving a daughter of his to another mountain sounds like a good idea. A mountain princess or a river can marry a mountain ruler. Maybe, he should have married off Ganga in advance to Vindya (problematic geography notwithstanding 😆) Heck, it would be fantastic to see 2 mountain ranges marry 😆

Parvati tied the Damaru with the red thread which is always seen hanging, it adds a good effect to the Trishul- Damaru combo.

Thanx for wu.one thing i didn't understood is dat after tying damru to trishul why parvati fainted i was hoping dat she will enter the cave today.and 1 more thing they are using the same backg music like shiv-sati with some addition of words or sumthng like dat.

Thanks for the update, Minaxi.

One thing I don't understand is that why Gods always approach the ones they don't need to explain the situation to. Had Lord Vishnu told Mena that Lord Shiva is Mahadev and Parvati is destined for him and she will be happy with him, I don't think a staunch Vishnu devotee like her (as shown) will refuse. (Perhaps Lord Vishnu should have given one on Daksha's head with his gada when he was going out of bounds under the name of devotion. When he went through all the trouble of getting cursed just to make Narad understand the truth and destroy his ego, Lord Vishnu certainly would have done something similar had Daksh really been the staunch Vaishnavite as shown here).

All Mena's sons were mountains - included Vindhya as well. How did this alliance come about? 😕

It was in this Forum that I got to know that Ganga was Himavan's daughter. Any information on any other daughters of Himavan and Mena? I was expecting Parvati's sisters to visit her or atleast Himavan and Mena taking Parvati to the rivers who were their daughters and introducing them.

I don't know if Mena would have accepted if Himavan said that he had dreamed that Vishnu instructed them to give Parvati's hand in marriage to Shiva.

I do like the precap - but really don't want another Mena tantrum tomorrow.

I still dont understand the following points when ever i try to get involved with the serial i get pricked by these kind of scenes.

1) How can couple who are grounded in ignorance can aadi shakti as daughter.

2) how does himavan who is attached to kul maryada gotra etc etc get darshan of Vishnu. i thought for seeing god you need to get rid of all these things related to world.

3) How does shiv become jaamaata of such ignorant people.

i can only draw one conclusion according to what is being depicted.

mata pita of aadishakti are selected at random by playing dice or the serial has no sense what so ever.

@Tanni: I totally agree

well the answer lies in the fact that this is after all a television soap in primetime Hindi and the showmakers have to contest with shows where there is a high voltage drama. Staying true to scriptures and potraying the purest of everything simply will not sell. Everything boils down to this: money. Even the tale of the Gods.

I quite agree with that but the start of show was not like that it was all about mahadev and there was an aura of devotion around sati and mahadev

but slowly it degenerated to soap opera level

that's the reason i feel bad other wise i wouldn't have cared.

@ Krishna, you have to take this show with a HUGE fist full of salt (a pinch won't do! 😆)

Every day I read "doubts" about "yogyata" and "pichla janam" and I go through this series of emotions 😕/ 😡/🤣

The best thing to do is laugh...

I think with a mythological show, here can be two routes:

1. you show what has basis in various sources (which, of course is difficult enough given the sheer variety we have not to mention the contradictory versions) - i.e. you show what people already know. give the much-loved stories and figures a new visual canvas. This method has some integrity to it.

2. you treat like any other soap-opera and get "creative" with the narrative ...

This show from day 1 has gone for the 2nd option.

One could say they had no choice in the beginning as there aren't too many narratives around Sati...But they seem to be infected with the same mood when it comes to Parvati too...sadly.

yeah i am slowly learning how to laugh at this show, but once that happens i will not be able to connect with it as i used to
