🌺।।The Decline and Degradation of the Royal Dynasties as per Srimad Bhagwatam and the Characteristics of Kaliyuga।।🌺

A Thread 🧵

As Kaliyuga progresses, righteousness declines, and dynasties become increasingly corrupt, leading to moral and spiritual degradation.Image
🌺।।Characteristics of the Kaliyuga।।🌺

Śukadeva Gosvāmī described the disturbing characteristics of Kaliyuga, revealing how society deteriorates due to greed, hypocrisy, and ignorance:

- Truthfulness, cleanliness, tolerance, and mercy diminish day by day.

- Wealth alone determines status
- Justice is applied based on power, not righteousness.

- Men and Women unite based on superficial attraction, and deceit dominates business.

- Brahmanas are recognized only by their sacred thread, not by their qualities.

This teaches that Kali-yuga is marked by moral decay, where materialism replaces spiritual values.

🌺।।Maa Matangi is the ninth Mahavidya and is the Tantric form of Goddess Saraswati।।🌺

A Thread🧵 about her story and her Tantric Significance

Also known as the Outcast Goddess of Sacred Speech, she sits on the edge of tradition.

Not quite inside the temple, and not completely outside it.Image
Maa Matangi — the ninth Mahavidya — is the Tantric form of Saraswati, but unlike her Vedic counterpart, she does not follow the rules. She breaks them to reveal a deeper, more raw truth.

Where Saraswati is pure, white, and proper —
Matangi is wild, emerald-green, and unapologetically free.
🌺।।The Story of Maa Matangi।।🌺

Once, in ancient times, the Devas offered a grand feast to Sri Vishnu and Goddess Lakshmi. As is customary, the leftovers from the divine feast were thrown away, for no one dared to eat what had already been offered to the Gods.

🌺।।जब भगवान श्रीकृष्ण के आह्वान पर अगस्त्य ऋषि एक घूंट में पी गए देवराज इंद्र द्वारा लाई गई बाढ़ का पानी।।🌺

माता अन्नपूर्णा और अगस्त्य ऋषि की एक कथा 🧵

जब भगवान श्री कृष्ण ने गोवर्धन को धारण किया तो भगवान ने अगस्त्य ऋषि का आह्वान किया कि अगस्त्य ऋषि आओ और इस देवराज इंद्र के द्वारा जो यहाँ जल भरा हुआ है उसको पी जाओ और अगस्त्य मुनि आये, एक घूंट में सारा जल पी गए ।Image
Image
अगस्त्य मुनि एक ऐसे ऋषि हैं जिनके पास समुद्र को भी एक घूंट बनाकर के पीने की शक्ति है ।

ऋषियों मे अत्यंत शक्तिशाली ऋषि अगस्त्य, शिवजी के परम भक्त थे । एक बार माता पार्वती, जो अन्नपूर्णा भी कहलातीं हैं, उन्होंने शिवजी से निवेदन किया, ‘महादेव ! मेरी इच्छा है कि मैं संसार के सभी साधू-महात्माओं को भोजन करवाऊँ । इसलिए आप सभी साधू-संतों व ऋषि-मुनियों को आमंत्रित कीजिए।
‘इस पर शिवजी ने जो प्रतिष्ठित संत व ऋषि-मुनि थे उनको स्वयं बुलाया कुछ को बुलाने गणों को भेजा, इस प्रकार से संसार के सभी साधू-संतों व ऋषि-मुनियों को आमंत्रित किया । लाखों साधू-संतों व ऋषि-मुनि एकत्रित हो गए । माता पार्वती ने सैंकड़ों व्यंजन भरपूर मात्रा मे बनवाए जिनको खा-खा सभी साधू-संत व ऋषि-मुनि थक गए किन्तु व्यंजन ज्यों के त्यों ही पड़े रहे ।

🌺।।Do you know about the curse that led Dhritrashtra to lose his 100 sons ?।।🌺

A Thread 🧵

King Dhritarashtra once asked Sage Vyasa, “Why did I lose all hundred of my sons? I remember my past hundred births—I committed no sin!”Image
Vyasa replied, “You remember a hundred lives, but what about before that?”

Then he revealed the truth.

Long ago, Dhritarashtra had been a mighty king. One day, a flock of swans stopped in his royal garden. Their leader entrusted his pregnant mate to the king’s care while he went on pilgrimage. She gave birth to a hundred cygnets.
The king’s cook, unaware, killed one and served it. The king loved the taste and ordered it daily—never questioning where it came from. One by one, all hundred babies were cooked and eaten.

पीपल वस्तुत: भगवान विष्णु का जीवन्त और पूर्णत:मूर्तिमान स्वरूप ही है। भगवान श्रीकृष्ण ने भी कहा है की वृक्षों में मैं पीपल हूँ।
