But couple of things I expected happened. Rudra's Aadi Shakthi gone which he gave for the goodwill of the humanity. MB tells him once he gives it, he will not get it back. Even then Rudra gives it. So who will be his Aadi Shakthi. Maya ya Leela. Because that power coming to him is the real turning point. Unexpected. For me it has to be Leela. But again don't know TRP aunty ko tho lovey dovey adarsh bahu Maya hi pasand hogi.
Point no :2 fight of head vs heart. I had always thought it will happen in MK. Precap exactly shows that. To me Neelkanth has meant Rudra has to stop the poison spreading to other parts of the body which the head of Garud is having. He has to hold it for that he has to fight with the head and liberate others. Doesn't matter the one spreading poison is his own father. It cannot go beneath the head, had to be stopped in throat or the part that connects head to other parts of the body.
No lovey dovey baba can help him here. Bairavi had started the harshest measure, now he has to complete it.
Emotions has to be controlled in the path of duty. Sacrifice has to be made in the path of duty. It is not emotions that you need to listen to, but the conscience. If you see the fear pshycosis spreading around and the person is your father, emotion will stop you from fighting him, but conscience wont. It will ask you to question. That conscience awakening is the most important part in any individual.
Yes, I too think that rudras shakti will come back. As to who will it be - we have to see it as sati vs Parvati. Maya is the sati roop, and in a sense her punarjanam has happened, so makes sense that she will be the Parvati, unless
Maya - illusion
Leela - action
So, after Maya the illusion goes away, Leela the action must become predominant
For as long as he could, Rudra kept his Maya alive, first as the active predominant part of his life and his thoughts and all his actions were around the Maya
Slowly she became dormant and stayed in his life and in his subconscious, but his actions were no longer dominated by her.
Till, it was war time, then 'Leela' the action brought his Maya out again, and he consciously sent her away, for when it's time for Leela - the action, there's no place for Maya the illusion.
With that rationale of course, Leela must be the one to empower him now, not Maya
Aage as you said, joh TRP maiyya ki ichcha! Unki kripa pe yeh saaari Maya Aur Leela
Yes, the head vs heart - it always has been the fibre of this story - Rudra has always been the heart and earlier maimui then dadi were the head that gave him thoughts and moulded his actions
Of course as Garuda pramukh, his head must be shiva and ealier we saw the conflict between Rudra the man guided by dadi resisting Rudra the Garuda pramukh whose brain was shiva
Now that Rudra the man and Rudra the Garuda pramukh are one and the same, and the brain is shiva, Rudra the heart still hasn't learned to act in unison with the heart,.
The symbolism is still beautiful - heart goes where the feet lead it, head and heart are not in sync, so the body functions very disjointedly, where some of the organs follow the head and the others the heart.
In fight over head and heart we are mostly guided by our emotions, so heart does have an edge, as it is indulgent and loving, where the head is a strict disciplinarian.
But when the sheer logical force of the head is backed by the emotional energy of the heart, miracles happen.
So head and heart ki ladai hogi, and both will emerge stronger and unified and head will be rid of its corrupting influence.
As for neelkanth - shiva was the neelkanth, and the poison was held neck upwards - so I am hoping this time too, shiva will be the neelkanth and find a way to remove the poison and not Rudra !
Just read your last point about conscience - you truly are a wonderful person Shruthi and have a wisdom so I have a question for you.
Would you say that conscience means when head and heart work in unison - the heart wants everyone to be happy and win, and the brain guides and individual towards that ?
