🌺।।भगवान शिव के अतुल्य सुंदर रूप की कथा।।🌺

एक बार गणेशजी ने भगवान शिवजी से कहा, "पिताजी! आप यह चिताभस्म लगाकर, मुण्डमाला धारणकर अच्छे नहीं लगते। मेरी माता गौरी अपूर्व सुंदरी और आप उनके साथ इस भयंकर रूप में!..

#Mahashivratri
..पिताजी! आप एक बार कृपा करके अपने सुंदर रूप में माता के सम्मुख आएं जिससे हम आपका असली स्वरूप देख सकें"।

( भगवान शिवजी मुस्कुराये और गणेशजी की बात मान ली।)

कुछ समय बाद जब शिवजी स्नान करके लौटे तो उनके शरीर पर भस्म नहीं थी। बिखरी जटाएं सँवरी हुई, मुण्डमाला उतरी हुई थी।
सभी देवता, यक्ष, गंधर्व, शिवगण उन्हें अपलक देखते रह गये। वो ऐसा रूप था कि मोहिनी अवतार रूप भी उसके सामने फीका पड़ जाये।

भगवान शिव ने अपना यह रूप कभी भी प्रकट नहीं किया था। शिवजी का ऐसा अतुलनीय रूप करोड़ों कामदेवों को भी मलिन कर रहा था।
गणेशजी अपने पिता की इस मनमोहक छवि को देखकर स्तब्ध रह गए और मस्तक झुकाकर बोले, "मुझे क्षमा करें पिताजी, परन्तु अब आप अपने पूर्व स्वरूप को धारण कर लीजिए"।
भगवान शिव मुस्कुराये और पूछा,"क्यों पुत्र? अभी तो तुमने ही मुझे इस रूप में देखने की इच्छा प्रकट की थी, अब पुनः पूर्व स्वरूप में आने की बात क्यों"?

गणेशजी ने मस्तक झुकाये हुए ही कहा,"क्षमा करें पिताश्री, मेरी माता से सुंदर कोई और दिखे मैं ऐसा कदापि नहीं चाहता"।
( शिवजी हँसे और अपने पुराने स्वरूप में लौट आये।)

पौराणिक ऋषि इस प्रसंग का सार स्पष्ट करते हुए कहते हैं कि आजभी ऐसा ही होता है।पिता रुद्र रूप में रहता है क्योंकि उसके ऊपर परिवार की जिम्मेदारियों,परिवार के रक्षण और उनके मान सम्मान की जिम्मेदारी होती है,तो थोड़ा कठोर बनना पड़ता है।
और माँ सौम्य, प्यार, लाड़, स्नेह देकर उस कठोरता का बैलेंस बनाती है। इसलिए सुंदर होता है माँ का स्वरूप।

🌺।।ॐ नमः शिवाय।।🌺
🌺।।हर हर महादेव।।🌺
🌺।।शुभ महाशिवरात्रि।।🌺

🌺Hoysaleswara temple, also referred simply as the Halebidu temple, is a 12th-century Hindu temple dedicated to Bhagwan Shiva.🌺

It is the largest monument in Halebidu, a town in the state of Karnataka, India and the former capital of the Hoysala Empire.
The temple was built on the banks of a large man-made lake, and sponsored by King Vishnuvardhana of the Hoysala Empire. Its construction started around 1121 CE and was complete in 1160 CE.
During the early 14th century, Halebidu was twice sacked and plundered by the Muslim armies of the Delhi Sultanate from northern India and the temple and the capital fell into a state of ruin and neglect.

⚜️In Hinduism,both Kuber& Goddess Lakshmi r associated with wealth &prosperity but there is a difference.⚜️

🌺Do u know that?

Lakshmi is connected with divinity,auspiciousness whereas Kuber is connected with material prosperities acquired in the form of wealth,opulence&riches.
Sri Lakshmi devi is Parashakti, the reason behind the creation ,maintenance , and destruction of infinite universes. She is Narayani, the divine energy of Purushottama. She is source of all potencies, wealth, knowledge,strength,etc.
Goddess of wealth and fortune is just one of the minor aspect of Mahalakshmi mahadevi.

Kuber on the other hand is a demi god who is deity of wealth and protector of wealth, but the very source of Kuber’s wealth is upon the side glances of Shri Devi Lakshmi.

⚜️Everyone now knows that the Moorthis of Ramlala and Janaki Mata in the Ayodhya Ram Mandir will be carved from the Shaligram stone, for which two Shila (Rocks) weighing 14 and 26 tons, which is around 68 million years old will be used.⚜️
The two rocks were discovered in the Kali Gandaki river,not far from Saligram or Muktinath(the place of redemption)in Nepal's Mustang province.

🌺But why only Shaligram?Why not any other rock?🌺

Lets know the'Pauranik Katha'which tells us about the importance of Saligram Shila.
The story goes;

Once there was a pious girl named Vrinda born in the Asura Clan to Kalanemi. Vrinda was a great devotee of Sri Vishnu, since her childhood she worshipped Prabhu with great devotion and as result of her devotion to Prabhu, her husband Jalandhar became invincible.
