I was watching the episode today and strangely it reminded me of the days where Shiva would test Parvathi at the time of her penance. Actually that part of DKDM was authentic so I enjoyed immensely.
Now what made me think of those times is, Shiva was anasakta , he was viragi. As much as he has the responsibility of maintaning the santulan of this srishti, I think he should make a run for it. He has no responsilities. His daughter is married. His sons are settled. He is not the one to interfer in their life ( DKDM Shiva is more western then the scriptures had dipicted đ ). So Why would he need Parvathi? If the only reason is the balance of the prakriti and purusha, then it is the lamest of all. All the mushy sweet talk on their 2nd honeymoon is hollow and pompous. If I left the house my husband would atleast try and talk to me ( I hope đ ). If he stands there and talks to himself then my kids will call for an ambulance.
Before any one gets upset that I am treating Mahadev as mortal, Sorry, I am not the serial makers are. If Shakti is Shiva and Shiva is Shakti, Shakti could never forget him nor herself. They are 2 sides of a sigular conciousness. How foolish is to project them a mere mortals with human imperfections and impurities. Nevertheless, CVs have chosen this path so I think they will stick to his viragi / anasakta state. The only difference is instead of going to rudrabhoomi he will go to parvathi van.
What do you think? I must admit, today I felt like I was watching one of the starplus serial
