    Shakta Discussion

    There is something beautiful about the idea of the mother and the father of the universe showing up in the world in different guises, I guess it's a strange Bhakti thing. Edit: It was from the a Temple from Narasimhi: They seem found of the example pictures. Are they really not orthodox?

    Shakta Discussion

    They are all called Venus, to my knowledge. A pre-historical goddess we think is fertility based. Now somebody compared Ishtar to Durga. I have my own theory. I have the strange view that Sekhmet is a form of Mother Kali. Now I have to preface this with a lot of heavy duty warnings; I am a...

    Forgive me Vinayaka. I did not mean offense. I merely meant if that we differ politically, it doesn't matter because God and Truth are more important.

    Meat eaters and Shiva

    My goddess drinks and eats meat. Shiva is found of Bhang himself. I cannot strongly say that they are to be banned if it what she and he do. I know this is an extreme minority view here and I would never, ever dare to argue that is better then any other view. That being said. What one can do...

    Eh. I don't agree on socialism, but if I can be an anarchist, he has the right to be socialist. Your politics don't matter if God is in your heart.

    I admire your piety and wisdom, Vinayaka. If it wasn't for you I would have never understood Skanda. If you can enlighten just one person, you have done good to the lord.

    Identify the God

    Lord Shiva is stronger then any communist strongman. No earthly tyrant is stronger then the Lord. This is wonderful news! Jai Mahadeva! Jai Mahakali Ma!

    Death and the Paradigm difference

    I just hope when I die I would have lived a worthy life. The Grace of god ranks more in my mind more then the fear of reincarnating again.

    Identify the God

    I made an error in judgment. I mistook the back of the coin and the tattoo for the front. Forgive me, I didn't say it in a very clear way o_O

    Question about Skanda.

    Thank you, Vinayaka. That was enlightening. That makes perfect sense!

    Identify the God

    I read that whole thing. That was beyond heartbreaking. Tantra is not as an excuse for hedonism in the least, but the acknowledgment that yes, we are sexual, meat eating, drinking, pot smoking creatures, and that some people cannot overcome that, so if one "cannot get off the ride", it is better...

    Identify the God

    You got me there Aupmanyav. However, it is a very rare to have that be shown in iconography. I was also mistaken by the backside and the tattoo he showed. Really looks more like a "wrathful" Tibetan deity then anything Indian or Asian. Front side looks "fairly orthodox", as much as one can say...

    Identify the God

    ShivaFan, have I ever told you how awesome you are? Oddly "Wrathful" form of Lord Vishnu, though EDIT: I was thinking of the Tattoo/Back. Oops!

    Question about Skanda.

    Oh its fine, I was explaining what possessed me to ask. I admire Lord Shiva greatly, as I see him as the person most dear to Mother Kali. I do not worship him, but my heart sings whenever I think or read of him. If anything is dear to the Lord, therefor it dear to me. Lord Ganesha is outwardly...

    Question about Skanda.

    Oh of course, Starry. It seems...wrong to just rely on my prejudices and preconceptions to assume why somebody might be attracted to a god or a theology. My uncle, a kind, loving man, became a Mormon. I asked him, because I have personal baggage on the issue, why. "Because in Mormonism, god...
