#2 - Sita: The untamed Kali and the demure Gauri

-



The chariot stopped far from the city in the middle of the forest. Sita alighted, eager to walk amongst the trees. The charioteer , Lakshman, remained seated .Sensing that he had  something to say , Sita paused. 

Lakshman finally spoke ,eyes to the ground , 'Your husband , my elder brother,  Ram ,King of Ayodhya wants you to know that the streets are full of gossip .Your reputation is in question .The rules are clear; A king's wife should be above all doubt. The scion of Raghu clan has therefore ordered you to stay away from his person and his palace and his city. You are free to go wherever else you please .But you may not reveal to anyone that you were once Ram's queen.'

Sita watched Lakshman's nostrils flare .She felt his embarrassment and his rage .She wanted to reach out and reassure him ,but she restrained herself.

'You feel Ram has abandoned his Sita, don't you? she asked gently.

'But he has not .He cannot.

He is god-he abandons no one.

And I am Goddess-I cannot be abandoned by anyone.'


A mystified Lakshman returned to Ayodhya, while Sita smiled in the forest and unbound her hair.

Earth to millennial, the centennial is here to take over your crown. Known as Generation Z(gen Z) —born  after 1995— they are redefining political movements, religion, popular culture, social distancing and more.  They are the first truly connected generation. And yet they will also be the first generation for whom social distancing has become the new normal. Born into technology, raised with information on their fingertips, gen Z is now living to tell the tale of COVID-19, one of the greatest pandemic to have hit the globalized world in the last few decades.  When 16-year-old Greta Thunberg addressed the 2019 U.N. Climate Action Summit , the way she excoriated world leaders for their inaction on climate change  was striking. A t just 23, Malala Yousafzai has been a champion for women’s rights. In 2008 when she wrote about the Taliban’s growing influence in Pakistan, she was only fourteen and was shot after calling for better education for women, yet und...

On 24th February Vladimir Putin , the President of Russia shattered the peace in Europe by unleashing war on a democracy of 44 million people, his justification was that modern, Western-leaning Ukraine was a constant threat and Russia could not feel "safe, develop and exist". It's over a month now and yet there is no end to the Russia-Ukraine War .The latest updates state that , a fter failing to take over the whole country, Russia is now trying to split Ukraine in two to create a Moscow-controlled region, as informed by the  head of Ukrainian military intelligence. The UN refugee agency UNHCR says 3,821,049 Ukrainians have fled the country – an increase of 48,450 from the previous days. Also Hollywood A-listers held a moment of silence at Sunday’s Oscars gala in support of the people of Ukraine. But the main question is: DO WARS EVER SOLVE THE PROBLEMS BETWEEN NATIONS? Wars occur when countries fail to solve an issue through diplomatic or economic arrangements. But...
