Reading Notes: Seven Secrets of the Goddess Saraswati Part A

Image
The Video that I choose to take notes on is called “Seven Secrets of the Goddess”. The ninetieth and twentieth part of the video is called Saraswati’s Secret. It was a really interesting video I got to learn a lot of stuff in this video about Goddess Saraswati’s and how the Goddess Lakshmi’s gave us the knowledge and how we are different than other species on earth. This video starts off by explaining what “Saraswati” means. The video said it means word or language because for example The devas, invoke her just when the demon Kumbhakarana is about to ask Brahma for a boon and that boon was to get the Indra-asan (seat of Indra) but Saraswati twisted the rakshasa’s tongue so that instead of saying Indra-asan, he asked for Nidra-asan (Sleep).

My second favorite...

In a small village called Heaven there lived one special family and they were famous in the village. The family consist of father, mother, and a son. The family reputation was good, but their reputation was not good because Varuna acted like a thug. Varuna acted like that because he didn’t want to get bullied in school.

It was a really interesting video I got to learn a lot of stuff in this video about Goddess Lakshmi’s and how do people see Lakshmi’s as a Goddess. This video starts off by explaining what “Lakshmi” means the video said it means food in nature and wealth in culture. It was an interesting concept to learn that Lakshmi can have more than one meaning in a different scenario. Lakshmi favorite animal is an elephant because she is always shown in a picture with an elephant beside her.

  The Video that I choose to take notes on is called “Seven Secrets of the Goddess”. The eleventh and twelfth part of the video is called Durga Secret. It was a really interesting video I got to learn a lot of stuff in this video about Goddess Durga and how do people see Durga as a Goddess. It also talks about why Durga is seen this way. There are multiple parts in this video that I liked and my first favorite part of this video is starts of the video where they describe how a male God offering is different during ritual or puja and how female goddess offering is different during the ritual. The offering the male God gets such as Vishnu are food, flower, leaves, lamps, and incense, but the offering the female goddess gets such as Durga is Haldi (turmeric), Kunku (red power), Kajal (Kohl), a pieces of cloth to serve as her upper garment the choli (blouse), the chundri (veil), and the chadar (shawl). They do that because they want to cower up the Goddess so she would look more like ...
