Fire, Water, Sand & Goenkas

The Goenkas are, in my opinion, like fire. They are a force that has to have impact. No one can get too close to them. They can warm and light up from a distance but closeness to them only burns. Anybody too close to them only got burnt or felt the heat.

Fire if put to good use, can be fuel and sustain life. But gone wrong, it causes havoc. Goenkas are quite helping in sustenance of those they choose to support. Yet they are handle with care stuff. Any mess or over dependence on them and there can be burns and ruins.

They themselves also hate getting anyone too close and fight away, push away parents/spouse/friends too often in irritation.

The Other Goenkas aka Dev, Suchitra

Are water. Water is never dangerous by itself. It is colourless, odourless, shapeless. It can be converted to any state. Frozen solid, flowing liquid, all over the place vapour. These two are like that. Nothing definite. Once frozen in place or time. Then standing or bubbling yet not flowing liquid. Slightly scattered, all over the place water now.

Water has to be in a certain state to be a force that can cause an impact. A storm, a flood or torrent. These 2 are not yet in that state. Hence no impact. They were either still water or frozen for years.

Their latent potential (if any) has still not been harnessed.

But yes with controversies around them by other fiery Goenkas they have begun to boil. Now. No longer placid water.

BUT water doesn't always fight or weaken fire. In fact if fire is caused by electricity then water worsens it!

Here, sand comes in picture. Same sand that is under feet. Same sand that might be under feet yet never gets caught in hand and always slips away somehow. Durga is that sand. She slipped away from Goenkas somehow every time. Despite getting trampled by them.
Durga and others trampled by Goenkas, if they get in their eyes can irritate them to no ends. Currently and till now Durga has been largely a sore irritant than a destroyer.
Can destroy only if source of fire is known and if used in right amount.

Fire can't be fought or finished easily. Especially if many take advantage of it. To fight and finish it one needs to know how it started and how's it spreading and what will quell it, what will fuel it. Goenkas are like forest fire that's been raging on and it's too widespread. It will take real rush of opposing force to stop them.

It will leave and is leaving behind a lot of destruction. Once it's over, great renewal shall have to take place.

Hi. Very nice post. So true. The evil trio are going to self destruct themselves, except that sand and water should play a major role in it.😊

Wow anu lovely post ..
PANCHMAHABHUTA or the five elements of nature

.Your post it somehow connects the Goenkas to the elements of nature ...

Hmm fire water sand ...and how beautifully u have used them as metaphors for THe Goenka

Alos I feel tht if Durga aka Nitya is Like sand...she could also be like wind ...!! Unstoppable n somehow gets what she wants ...😆

And if we take Akash aka Akram into consideration too ..then he is the akash , the sky ...omnipresent and keeping an eye and above the fire water sand n wind ...

Wonderful analysis

anu
yet another fantastic analysis 👏

for now i feel that the sand is buried under water and only comes up on surface when pushed by the waves .

Durga has to become a sandstorm too along with other forces , for this she needs a catalyst who is Dayal @ this time . But only dayal is not able to turn her into that and hence she requires the help of tsunami's and torrents . She should also be careful to erupt from such a side where the fire can be put out and not vice versa .

Nice analysis Anu. Only water holds Sand. It is not affected by fire or can fly aimlessly by wind. But water holds Sand.
Instead of Sand if I can call Durga Earth only with water it becomes a place worthy of living. Greenery on Earth that is responsible for holding life on this earth is only possible with water. Water is life.
Else Sand can be in a lifeless desert taken by winds or scattered here and there by wild fires.
What I liked in Sat's epi was Suchitra's words. That she was very sad when her husband died. But looking at her son, for him she decided to live. She told you have to value what you have. Life has to given a second chance.
Ideally Durga should never have gone for the fatalistic approach of marrying Shaurya thinking if she dies Payal and Dev will be safe. She should have looked at the life. She should have looked at her sister and that should have made her want to live.
She should have looked at Dev. Yes he did a mistake but was asking for a second chance. He loved her and she should have given him a second chance.
By deciding to love she wouldn't have lost anything. They could have worked together to find proofs to reopen case in the court so that justice can happen.
But unfortunately she decided to ignore water and go after fire. And that has now made her clueless and aimless.
