Great analysis Harini. Your analysis had me understood the religious side of the pooja. God reads every body's inner feelings. Gopi was the true devotee of God and so her offering was accepted by God.

Regarding Kokila, though I agree with you regarding the degree of punishment, I thought that Kokila could have handled the situation better. Rashi deserves even harsher punishment, but she will take full advantage of this situation to make Koki-Hetal rift worse.

Thank you..😃

All stories read show us how it is the emotion and Bakthi that counts and not the money that we give him as an offering.

As for Koki, as Nazma said, Rashi did not exactly do this within closed doors. Hence Koki's punishment was alright. Further it was made worse when the laddoo would not go in.,.

As for the rift, if not this, Rashi will use another excuse... Plus Hetal deserves to be left alone without Koki and Gopi.. So it is really ok.

i did not understand the scene at the mandir..about what people were saying etc..ur post cleared that for me...so thank you for the lovely post. 👏

i disapproved of kokilas second punishment of having rashi hold the laddoo the whole time but i guess in someways she deserves it,
however the rfit is still on.. and so i was expecting Hetal to say something and bail rashi..but hmm..Hetal has her ways of tackling Rashi and Kokila. 🤔

Thanks😃

Glad that it helped.

As for the second punishment, it was more to show her that her stupidity is just more work for Gopi. Let me tell you, Gopi will be more tired making those laddoos than Rashi will be holding the plate.. With Rashi's skill set, she would not be able to make the laddoo .. So if Gopi has to be psedo punished for Rashi's mistakes, Rashi needs to be punished properly..

As for Hetal, rift or no rift, she will not talk because she has nothing good to offer... Rashi deserves Hetal and cice versa.. Both will leave the other to dry in case of trouble🤢

Well said Harini. Even as Gopi was supporting Rashi by holding her arm when Rash almost fell, she wasn't doing it save Rashi, but to save the laddo. She never once consider making the small ladoo to take credit, but she did it because she knew they needed to offer Him the bhog.

This is what makes both Koki and Ahem take pride in her. Agani and again Gopi has proven to be the best choice Koki has ever made while at the same time Rashi has proven once again that Koki has always been right about her also.

Thank you so much Shilpa😛

Gopi is really a true worshiper. She does not look for credits.. People praise her for her genuine capabilities and she still does not take it to her head..

Your last para is just so👏.. Aham was so proud today, wasn''t he and Koki voiced her pride..😃 Well Koki told when Rashi was sent out.. She found who Rashi exactly is when she saw her for the first time.. Her intuition was absolutely right😛

Lovely take on Gopi's Bhakti!
In fact, that is one aspect that I completely love about her - her utter devotion. and I'm happy today that her small laddu was symbolic of the Modi family's efforts to chadao bhog.

I wouldn't go so far as to defend Koki, frankly. Her bhog or offering is not without Bhakti but the hubris, the self importance with which she represents the Modi Parivaar takes away from whatever devotion she has. She wants to be seen to be doing all this - the name, the community's opinion, her status... all these are important to her.

As far as Rashi was concerned, I think she was out of line. When she goes on and on about 'MERI Gopi vau' and 'AAPKI vau Raashi' - she has drawn the lines of me and you. Considering how she disliked it when Hetal interfered between Goki even to make peace - she has NO BUSINESS punishing Rashi in front of so many people, going so far as to reject a table saying she must hold the laddu up. It was vicious, IMO - Rashi made a mistake, and we saw how that happened.

Kokila is just too autocratic, too overbearing. Frankly I'm happy with this confrontation track between Hetal and Koki - though she doesn't seem to be learning, does she?

Well Harini...do not know if you had heard the story of 2 mites...this is was a parable which was told...a very poor lady had 2 mites, all her earnings & she need it more than anybody else but she gives those 2 mites as offerings...her amount was a pittance when compared to the others who were giving a part of their inheritance publicly...the question asked at the end of the parable was , who was more blessed ??? The lady with all the love she felt offered her 2 mites was blessed than others...

Similarly...Gopi did not have anything, except the deep devotion...& out of the devotion has she made the ladoo out of the knowledge she has, to offer it as a offering. Rashi on the other hand was publicly enjoying the appreciation with no devotion ...

They say offerings & alms shared the left hand should not know what the right has done...coz in public it reduces the actual love & devotion of giving it...with the laddu , Rashi has done that to Modi parivar & thats the reason she was punished that she will never ever repeat that !!!

Thanks Bubble..

Gopi's Bhakthi is indeed commendable..

As for Koki, I do not think her act today was to show her status in the Modi family. It is more to do with Rashi's mistake. You and me know that Rashi fumbled and was irresponsible making the order and this was a big misunderstanding..

Kokila does not. Plus Rashi's expression of agreement with the public that the size of the laddoo showed the Modi's Bhakthi, appalled Koki no end.. She may be loud and stern but this was something Rashi deserved. Also Rashi already made herself a spectacle in front of everyone, so Koki's punishment makes it no worse...😊

As for Koki telling that she wants no one interfering with her and Gopi and also with Gopi and Aham, I salute her for that.. If Hetal made this clear, Koki will never involve herself with Rashi again. Hetal till a few days ago always has looked for Koki to make the decision on everything. And Koki gave her a chance to say no.. Hetal just does not have it in her..

The split is eagerly awaited too.. I would like to see how Hetal performs after that.. 😃

Navya.. That was a wonderful example👏

I have heard an equivalent of the story😊

Gopi is sometimes such an old soul and so good.. Her simplicity blows my mind off.. And hats off to that last paragraph👏

Sudama and Krishna's story is one of my favorites😊

Thank you😃
Remember that this is very little as a punishment for Rashi. Actually I felt Rashi was acting about the weight today.. Just for sympathy😕

U know I wouldn't put it past her to do that!! She is the princess of Kalakaries so this probably wasn't that much effort for her to do!
