Before I leave though, here's the next quiz question! It's actually more like a discussion question.
If Ravan was such a great Shiva bhakta, then WHY did he not realize Lord Hanuman was Lord Shiva incarnated?😲 People praise Ravan saying his devotion to Lord Shiva was incomparable, but in my opinion it could not have beem so great if he did not recognize his own Ishta Dev just because he was in the form of a vaanar. Not only did Ravan not recognize Lord Shiva, he also insulted him by burning his tail!
What do you guys think? Was Ravan's devotion great or do you think it was faulty?

@Bhakti
Thanku so much for sharing such wonderful Bhajans Sweetheart! I am sure others must be enjoying it since I cant! 😳 Well hows Life? When is your Husband returning back!! 😉


Haiii Varnita dear I am so sorry you are not able to hear the bhajan as i am sure it would bring you much peace in your hectic exam times! I hope all is going well with your studies - when you gave here computer tuitions I thought ki wah ji wah Varnita is SO smart - I am sure you will come through with the flying colours!!

Sab kuch theek thak hai - lekin I do not know when my husband is coming home - I wait each day to hear this news!😭 I am very glad to have everyone here to talk to!

How is your leg now dear - can you walk as before? I have thought of it lot recently - some things take long time to heal hai na? Glad you are a young strong girl!

@Bhakti,

Thank you for your good wishes dear! I am finished with one final and have one more left tomorrow. Let's hope they go well. Your bhajans are always sooo nice, so thank you for lifting my spirits with them.
Give kisses to Chhotu and Maithili for me! Here's a kiss for you also.😉


Janaki dear thank you for kisses😳 - I will gladly give them to Chhotu and Maithili! And I hope you are giving hugs from us to your sweet sweet chota sa bhai!

I was thinking ki it is not right all the bhajans I am giving in Hindi when I know you are Telugu speaking (it is Telugu hai na?) so here is one pretty one just for you😛


I hope it will be peaceful for you so you can breathe deep from your studies. May your hard work bring you great success!

Interesting Question! Ravana's Devotion was offcoarse great and he proved it by even offering his Precious 10 Heads to him!
But though Ravana was a Great devotee of Shiva, he did all that Penance to get boons and become powerful, He did not want to attain Moksha by praising Shiva but his only motive was to to spread Adharma all over!
And as we know, Ravana performed intense Taps to please shiva but when Shiva did not appear he cut of his 10 heads one by one and offered them to sacrifical fire! Shiva, seeing the intense devotion for him got pleased and became bounded to give him a boon. But instead of this Shiva also wanted the world to be saved by the adharma of Ravana. So he has put a condition, with every sacrifised Head of Ravana, He has satisfied and pleased only one Rudra of Shiva! Means Shiva was bounded to Ravana with only his 10 Rudras. Ravan can easily recognise seeing the 10 Rudras that they are the incarnation of his Ishtadev Shiva and even those first 10 Rudrs can't do any bad to Ravan!
Shiva specially has taken the 11th incarnation as Hanumaan for Ravana .This 11th Rudra is devoid of any Sacrifice offered by Ravana to Shiva. Neither Ravan can recognise him nor Shiva is bounded not to Harm Ravana in this 11th Rudra.
This is the Reason for why Ravana didnt Recognize his Isht Dev and Hanumaan ultimately became the major reason for the destruction of Ravana and complete Demon Empire!! :)

Hey guys, my friend Allbut1 (Maham) made some avis on Gurmeet winning the 'Most Popular Male Face' award in ZRA. They're free for use!


This avi is of just Debina kissing Gurmeet's cheek.😉

Anyway, here's a new pic I found in the Chidiya Ghar official fanpage of FB. It's Debina's character Mayuri with her onscreen husband Gaumukh and her onscreen daughter Gajgamini. Aren't they such a cute family? Generally I'm not a huge fan of Gaumukh LOL.🤣 After seeing Debina with Gurmeet it's hard to see her with a Gaumukh-type character, but this pic they all look cute.😉

Thanks!😆 I still don't have total independence though. I have one LAST assignment I have to complete by this weekend. I'm trying to do it now but I still have some confusions. I emailed my teacher about it so let's hope he responds soon. I want to get that out of the way before celebrating.😆
