THE MANY SIDES OF DIVINITY
One day, when Sati spotted Shiva playing with his ganas like children, She wondered how He could be so versatile.
He had wisdom, knowledge, wit and humour, and He was so humane, so gentle, and yet She had also seen His anger.
He would get easily angered at displays of cruelty, and He would come down on it with the heaviest hand. “I don’t like bullies!” He would say.Whenever anyone approached the council with a complaint of fights, it was always the mightier, who would be censured by Him.
At other times, He would become aloof for days on end, busy in some deep contemplation, and forget even to have His meals properly. Just when She thought She had known that part of Him, He would surprise Her by eating voraciously any meal that She had made with Her hands! Truly,Her beloved husband was a divine collection of all attributes rolled into one.
“Or then, this is how the One rolls out many attributes”, Sati thought proudly to Herself.
