Mahakaali Can Do Anything, Jai Mahakaali

Dealing with double standards (part 1)...

Hello everyone. I don't know about other countries but living in India we always come across many double standards. Be it family or friends. Double standards in India has become a deadly disease and needs to be diagnosed and treated as soon as possible otherwise it will finish the future of our country.So, today I have picked up Mahakaali and I will try to illustrate this mythological tale in an entirely different way so that I can help those who are suffering from double standards
I'm pretty interested in all the mythological stories and I'm always curious to know more and more about them. So, I started watching Mahakaali and I went through all the episodes which have been released.  All episodes show a lot of supernatural powers. Mahakaali is seen flying in air, killing all evil people, throwing fire out of her mouth. All this looks very fancy and this is unbelievable for me.
When I discussed it randomly with a few people, their explanations and thoughts of everything shown in the episodes were very contrasting from my thoughts and explanations. I leave it to you to decide who is right and who is wrong. 
In almost every episode it seen that Shiva never stops Mahakaali from taking her decisions on her own. He never even interfere. He may give some tips but the final decision of her life is taken by her and Shiva always supports her in every decision with utmost grace. So according to this, what we get is that women have the right to take their decisions on their own. Not even the husband, who according to Hinduism is given title of 'parmeshwar' has the right to manipulate her, or impose his decisions on her. But the reply I received was stunning. The person said "vo Mahakaali hai, she can do anything".
As far I think, my brain keeps on saying that every human being has the right to make mistakes and learn from them, but according to the followers and worshipers of Mahakaali, this basic human right is only for Mahakaali. Normal humans, specially ladies can't decide for them because if they decide, they make mistakes, which may be harmful for them. So, you worship and follow Mahakaali but you refuse to learn her teachings. Double standards proved πŸ˜‡.
Next thing is the black skin. I have witnessed people disrespecting and laughing on the black skin possessed by their fellow humans. But, when it comes to Mahakaali, you worship her and embrace her in her black skin. Your don't disrespect her on being black and you don't make fun of her color, kyuki devi hai vo. She has the right to enjoy dignity irrespective of her color. But normal humans don't have this right. Here you will worship a black lady but you will laugh on the black person who walked past you. You worship her but you refuse to respect people who have got the same skin tone. Double standards proved againπŸ˜‡.
She is trying to teach many things which can make our life more beautiful. If you really want to worship her then instead of offering her flowers in the temple try to get the meaning of her actions and follow them. This will be the real gesture of respect towards her. Most important lesson she gives is equality of men and women in every field. Female soldiers of India fought a battle to get the right to fight on the war fronts but in our ancient tales this lady, Mahakaali was a well versed fighter who took part in many battles and no one stopped her from doing so. Our elders worship her but ask their daughters to speak in a low voice whereas in this serial Mahakaali is seen shouting out loudly. 
You believe the scenes in which she throws fire out of her mouth, you believe the scenes where she  miraculously changes her forms and showcase her supernatural powers. But you don't believe her when she says that she is doing everything to set example for humans. When the time to follow her comes, you refuse by saying "devi hai vo". Double standards proved againπŸ˜‡.
If you trust someone then trust completely. This partial trust and partial distrust will lead you nowhere and you will end up as a double standard, narrow minded rat.Indian mythology is beautiful only if you understand it completely, and it can change your life for good.
Give some rest to the grammar police that resides inside you and ignore mistakes. Thanks for reading😘

What Indians Think About ASIFA

A temple or devisthan is a place where people visit to beg for a healthy, happy, prosperous life. A temple is believed to be a pure place, a positive and safe environment, where our Supreme Powers i.e, our Gods and Goddesses live. They bless us with a happy life. This is what we used to think. But one incident changed everything. A child lost her life at this safe place. The death was not natural. It was a murder. This child was raped to death. Yes, she was a child, an eight year old innocent child, who probably knew nothing about the devils, the devils who lived in a devisthan, the devil who was the caretaker of a devisthan. Yes, she was totally unaware of that monster, disguised as a guard. Yes, I'm talking about ASIFA. That poor little girl, who was just eight years old, who spent only eight years in the paradise of Kashmir, wait, it was not a paradise. She might have thought of that place the most beautiful but it turned out to be the most ugly place for her. Sadly, ...

Dowry: An Unsolved Problem

What Dowry Meant in Ancient India? According to dictionary, dowry is an amount of property or money brought by a bride to her husband on their marriage. In other words, it refers to the gifts given by parents to their daughters on the day of their marriage. Dowry existed in precolonial India but in those days its meaning and purpose were entirely different from today's dowry. In precolonial India dowry was not a practice. It was an institution managed by women in order to establish and prove their status in their parent's house. The institution of dowry was a way of giving a part of the wealth of parents to their daughters just like it is given to their sons. This proves that in ancient India dowry emerged as a process of providing equal rights to sons and daughters. Parents were not forced to give anything beyond their budget. All the gifts were given by their own will. Hence it can be concluded that dowry started as an institution in India which had very positive go...
