प्रसीद तुलसीदेवी प्रसीद हरिवल्लभे
क्षीरोदमथनोद्भोते तुलसीत्वां नमाम्यहं |

ಪ್ರಸೀದ ತುಲಸೀದೇವೀ ಪ್ರಸೀದ ಹರಿವಲ್ಲಭೇ
ಕ್ಷೀರೋದಮಥನೋದ್ಭೋತೇ ತುಲಸೀತ್ವಾಂ ನಮಾಮ್ಯಹಂ |

Special🧵on the eve of #UttanaDwaadasi ++

Thulasi is Lakshmi Swaroopa and is beloved to Lord Vishnu; +
Where #Thulasi is, there Lord #Vishnu resides and such place is considered as a #Theertha (sacred place).

Lord Vishnu always resides where there is #Thulasi, #Padma (Lotus) and #Saligrama; ++

Sri VaraMahaLakshmi Vratha (05.08.2022) 🙏🙏🙏

Sri Lakshmi Devi chintana....

Lakshmi Devi should not be worshipped alone. She should always be worshipped along with Bhagavan Vishnu.
The are LAKSHMI-NARAYANA the Supreme God & Goddess. They always live together; where Lakshmi is not present Sri Hari will not be there & where Sri Hari is not there Lakshmi does not stay. Divine couple are inseparable. They are not separated even when they manifest as avatara's.+
This is explained in Vishnu Purana as follows,

RaAghavatway-abavat Sita, Rukmini Krishna janmani !
Anyeshu chavatareshu Vishno-resha-yanapayinee !!

Devatvey Deva-deheyam, Manushyatvey cha manushee !
Vishnor dehanu-roopam vai karoth yesha-yatmani tanum!!

Engineering a City #thread
Having spent my entire childhood in #Kochi (#Cochin ), it feels criminal to not know the story of how the city came to be the #metropolis it is today. Putting together a thread to trace the journey of the city which has been so endearingly mine (1)
Part 1: The #Malabar Mud-Banks
The story of Cochin is not just about how an engineering marvel can change social fabric, but also of many tenets of #British #Colonialism in India which is often taken for granted, passed off lazily as exploitation, missing nuance (2)
As with any coastal town, the cultural and economic history of Kochi is intertwined with maritime trade routes since the time of the Early Romans and Arabs. Thanks to the #biennale , most of us would now be familiar with the term #Muzuris (3)

If we are to look for the origins of the #Yoginis, it appears that we must turn to the simple village cult & to the #GramaDevatas/ #GramaDevatis, the local village #gods & #goddesses. In villages of #India they are the favoured #deities
