Because my last piece of writing got a lot of love and this what I present you now, was written an year ago and I do think my present writing (at least in Krishavyayam) is slightly better than this.

I'll be posting the hyperlink of this too in my intro post, because I realised it'd be tedious to scroll all the way to Vaikuntha. The other three writings (Lakshmis come home, Yamuna x Kanha, Rukmini - Satyabhama) have their hyperlinks already updated there. Alright I ramble a lot don't I-

══✿══╡°˖✧✿✧˖°╞══✿══

SatyabhaMadhavam

He was brawn, his biceps clasping his foe betwixt them as he thrashed him to the ground in a trice. His knuckles morphed white, blue-black curls which donned an iridescent peacock feather all the time bellowed at his outrage and danced upon his shoulders. His warm hazel eyes, which were oceans of compassion blazed like the dancing flames of fire, rage filling him at the mere sight of his imprisoned parents, at them from whom he had to part right after his birth.

A nine year old Satyabhama witnessed in awe, the glory of the son of Devaki, of whom she had harkened limitless narratives of. Of his bravery, his extraordinary strength and prowess at slaying demons which his own maternal uncle sent for the sole purpose of killing him right from his very first day in the world. The eleven and a half year old boy afore her chocolate eyes wasn't the cowherd of Vrindāvana, he was the Kāla of Kamsa and his tyranny at Mathurā. Vraja leela had come to a cease, and this was the commencement of his Mathura leela.

Gritting in his teeth, the immoral son of Ugrasena jumped to his feet and pounced upon his sororal nephew, desiring to push him to the ground with all his vitality, but to no avail. Satyabhama's Madhava stood like a bull among men, his feet on the ground as firm as his character and resolution. He was to be known as Yogeshvara after all, a title bestowed to him which made him the lord of yogis. Krishna was Leela Purushottama, the best among men.

"If you lose, my lovely nephew, then you die. And if I do, your guile parents and vicious grandfather will be pushed in the mouth of death, Krishna!" Kamsa sneered, reminding him the rules of this duel and casted a spontaneous glance on the executioners. "I'll kill you." every syllable he uttered dripped acid, his eyes now bloodshot.

"We shall see that, dearest uncle." Kanha scoffed, his eyes a swirling melange of his fury and the agony that sprang in him at the sight of his children who cried 'Trahi! Trahi!' over the years. Ugrasena, Devaki and Vasudeva, raised their palms in abhaya mudra, blessing the lord who bowed his head subtly, assuring them with a sempiternal seraphic smile. The shackled royals stood at a dais, awaiting to be guillotined the moment their Kanha would dispatch his vicious uncle to the afterlife.

Kamsa marred his face with a sickly scowl, growling as his nephew dodged his blow and twisted his arm, hauling him to the demesne once again. Krishna's clenched jaw twitched a muscle, the grim look on his face speaking of his ability of creation and destruction, his fierce form which the universe seldom witnessed.

Clasping her father's angavastram in her dainty fingers, Satyabhama concealed herself behind him, feeling her heart thump at the sight of a howling Kamsa as her curious eyes remained rooted to Kanha. Her eyes met his for a split second, and the daughter of Satrajita was swayed off her feet. She found in his eyes, a zephyr of his pure love kissing her heart. She knew that Bhudevi would forever belong to her Varahadeva, this form or the other. Much like how Hara-Gauri and Medha-Brahma belonged to each other alone - from the beginning of time, now and for the rest of eternity too.

'When have we ever parted, Bhamae?' he teased and she almost facepalmed at his mischief.

'Even at this time, hey Naatha?' The mystical curl of her lips and the scarlet of her cheeks were enough to amuse and confuse the merchant of Dvaraka, her father Satrajita at the same time as he failed to notice the warm and similar aureole the two kids radiated, being the parents of the universe.

'Never ever, my lord.' the corner of her lips tugged up, her chest swelled up in pride as she faced the duel arena once again. Her vaatsalya dripping doe eyes softened as she took in the form of a thoroughly exhausted Kamsa, catching his breath as he glared daggers at her lord. 'Convey Jaya back to our home in Vaikuntha. It is time.'

With a final groan, the manifestation of MahaVishnu pounced upon his maternal uncle, sending him flying back. A last, harsh blow of a fist and Kamsa breathed his last, his eyes rolling to the back as he was freed from his sinister body. Waiting with bated breaths, some adored Keshava while some loathed, some were left dumbstruck while others seemed pained.

A triumphant outcry erupted in the arena and Satyabhama released the breath she didn't know she had been holding in. Haladhara ruthlessly smashed Kamsa's supporters who attempted to ambush his baby brother. Resting his mighty mace on his shoulders, he gave a wide sarcastic grin to the ones who cowered away.

With a lone solemn glance, Krishna turned to the executioners of Kamsa who held his family and had been ordered to execute the instant Kamsa would lose. And within a fraction of second, Vasudeva, Devaki and Ugrasena were set independent, now breathing a sigh of relief.

Krishna gingerly strutted to his aunts with folded palms, Asti and Prapti who lamented and beat their breasts at the commencement of their widowhood by the corpse of their late husband. "Even though I tried my best to prevent it, it is I who has caused you great sorrow, Aunt. Please bestow me with forgiveness." his facial features bore torment and his gaze remained rooted to the floor, guilt eating him up from the inside. The daughters of Jarasandha then instantaneously left for their father's abode, Magadha. Satyabhama's shoulders dropped in dismay, knowing where this was going.

Mushtika, Chanoora and after the elephant Kuvalayapeeta, Krishna had passed the final hurdle named Kamsa like a child's play. Ultimately a new sun emerged from the back of the mountains, emitting rays that marked the break of dawn. A dawn of dharmarājya in Mathura. But, would it prevail for a prolonged period of time?

Grimacing, Satyabhama shook her head to clear her thoughts. For, for the world she had been a mere child and she had to keep everyone in that illusion, everywhen.

"Putri, come!" called Satrajit when he had scurried to the Yādava family. Pulling up a beatific beam, she twirled and hopped in her steps. Every step pulling her closer to where her Avyukta was, her giggles representing the ecstasy of the universe.

"What is your name, child?" Vasudeva smiled, noticing the way Kanha's gaze never left Satrajiti.

"Satyabhama." came the prompt, chirpy reply. The birds began singing melodies sweeter than honey as pleasant winds enveloped the arena.

Satyabhama, sang the universe, much like how the sound Om repeated itself over and over again.

Satyabhama, her name was like clouds weeping elixir, breathing life in barren lands.

"Satyabhama." Balarama repeated, almost in a whisper. "Beaming with truth. A jewel among women that you already seem like, little sister." he beamed as Ugrasena cooed at the child too.

"Indeed."

Devaki ran an affectionate hand in the midnight black tresses of the doe-eyed girl who in turn batted her eyelashes innocently, almost casting a spell on everyone. Krishna's feet drew him to his Bhama, her magnetism like that of the sun, and her petite frame only seemed to be squirming in front of his brawn one. A wine hued blush coated her cheeks as she lost and found herself in his lotus orbs at the same time.

"Satrajiti." he pronounced, his eyes bearing the purest form of love for his eternal consort.

'Priyatamā.'

"Rajkumar." she breathed, feeling him in her soul like she always did.

'Nātha.'

A Life of Fighting is but a Dream

I was so excited when this fig was announced for production! I absolutely fell in love with Gong Jun's Shanghai Spring Festival Gala performance on January 23, 2023. He sang two songs, and this was the first one, 刀剑如梦, A Life of Fighting is but a Dream, by Wakin Chao.

The full performance of this song is here:

I LOVE IT. He sounds so good! He's come so far, I'm just so proud of him. Here's the beautiful photo gracing the song in my phone:

And a few more pics, from far to near:

There's an English translation of the lyrics on Youtube that I'll link to here in case you, like me, become obsessed with this song!

youtube

Alright, you convinced me - one more picture of Gong Jun singing his heart out!

The costume is quite beautiful too. I really wanted figs of all his costumes from the performance (and one day I will commission them), but for now, I'm delighted to have this fig.

Our little Jianghu warrior arrived safe and sound in his plastic polystyrene protective box!

The actual name of this fig translates to Warrior of the Jianghu, but I associate this fig so closely with the song that had to take creative liberties here.

His head looks a bit odd as we rotate around this figure, but I can assure you it's normal looking in real life. It's true it's a little less round than the usual fig dimensions, due to the height they're going for in his hair, but it's not as exaggerated as this in real life. And yes, this is my favorite hairstyle of Junjun's - his hair off his immaculate face, lots of volume, and a bit touseled). It looks a bit distorted in this pic, which it is not. Unfortunately, you are dealing with a rudimentary phone photographer!

His outfit does indeed shine with this lovely pearlescent sheen to it.

*scrolls back up and watches the video for the [undisclosed number] of times* I like how the fig maker posed him, with one hand behind his back in his comfortably familiar Wen Kexing pose.

You can see the detail here with the long cuffs and the gathers that go into it, as well as the split in the sleeve. This is also a nice shot of the subtle leaf pattern.

This fig would not stand up for anything - I had to prop him up to take the header shot, and then he immediately got glued down on a fig stand. I'm not taking any chances of this fig tipping over and shattering!

Hmm, his head has looked more regular from this side. That's because they put the bigger swoosh in his hair on the other side.

This is a good angle to see his other hand in the classic sword mudra. Very apropos!

I like the detail here with his collar and the belt. His little boots are very cute!

I forgot to take a pic of the bottoms-up angle before I glued him down! You can tell I was VERY determined not to have this fig suffer any casualties in the fig-unboxing chaos.

A top view of Junjun's crowning glory. He really does have beautiful hair - thick and a gorgeous rich black.

I wanted you to have a closeup of the outfit details here - sorry my phone could only zoom in on the clothing details, leaving out the matching leaf detail in his eyes! The fig maker did a nice job on the tiny little details here.

I don't have a box card or a printed box, unfortunately. You know I would have loved to have the art for this one!

One little last treat for you - here's the extracted audio from the performance just in case you also want to enjoy it.

Material: Resin

Fig Count: 463

Scene Count: 31

Rating: A beautiful dream

Meditation on Shiva - what is it and what are its benefits?

Shiva Meditation - What is it and what are its benefits?

Easily control your thoughts, relax and achieve a state of calm. One of the major benefits of Shiva meditation is that it helps you recreate the absolute stillness of Lord Shiva. As they say, you cannot separate meditation from Shiva and vice versa. He is regarded as the Lord of Meditation. In fact, all of his portraits depict him in a state of deep meditation. This meditation technique will help you open your third eye and make the most of your mind. This will help you control your mind and get rid of the thoughts that make you anxious. It is also said to help develop as a person and lead a meaningful daily life. Moreover, our great practitioners have called this meditation a life-changing process. In this article, we will look at what this meditation technique is, what steps it takes and what its benefits are. Keep scrolling.

What is Shiva?

Yoga Guru Lord Shiva Shiva - Adiyogi - The first yoga guru. According to the yogic tradition, 15,000 years ago he attained enlightenment and danced ecstatically in the Himalayas, creating 84 lakh asanas with his movements. But if you ask someone what Shiva is, there is no clear answer. And this is the beauty of Shiva. Shiva is a universal consciousness. And the realization that you are one with him will help you understand the structure of the world. Meditating on such intense cosmic energies or thoughts only elevates your being. Shiva is worshiped in many forms and has many names. He is a monk, a space dancer, a family man, an ascetic, etc. Shiva is also widely represented in his unattached "lingam" form, but at the highest level he is the cosmic formless and infinite primordial soul. He is called by various names such as Shankar, Shambho, Maheshwar, Mahadev, Bhairav and many more. The symbolic representation of Shiva is a muscular man who adorns his body with snakes, smears ash over it, and wears a tiger skin. He carries a spear called "Trishul" and a drum called "Damaru". His neck is blue and he has long, thick, matted hair. The Ganges flows from his head, and the moon shines from his crown. He has a third eye, which is in fact the eye of his mind and allows him to perceive and understand himself and the world on a subconscious level. Shiva meditation helps you open your inner eyes.

Shiva Meditation Technique

Preparation

Sitting Posture

Breathing

Visualization

Recitation

Bliss

1. Preparation

The first is stretching. Yes, it helps you sit comfortably without feeling any tension or stiffness in your body. Stretch your back, hips, glutes, shoulders, hips and feet. Try asanas like Paschimottanasana, Utthita Padahastasana, Baddha Konasana, Vajrasana and more.

Then find a place where you can hear nature sounds like birds chirping and wind whistling without being noisy. Wear comfortable clothing appropriate for the weather to avoid sweating or catching a cold.

Turn off all devices and complete all urgent tasks so that there are no distractions when you sit down to meditate and your meditation is not rushed to an end. You can listen to classical music, zen music, ambient music, binaural tones or isochronous tones while practicing shiva meditation away from the noise of everyday life.

2. Seated Position

Meditation of Shiva in Seated Position

Sit comfortably in a chair or lean against a wall. Keep your back straight, but not too straight. Place your hands in a comfortable position, place the mudra on your lap, or hold your hands together on the inside of your thighs. Sit down and take sukhasana, padmasana, ardha padmasana or vajrasana.

Make sure you are in a comfortable position or adjust your sitting position so that it does not interfere with your meditation.

3. Breathing

Breathe consciously and slowly while feeling the movement. Inhale for a count of 6, hold your breath for a count of 6, and exhale for a count of 6. Focus on that and start over whenever your concentration fluctuates. Feel the life force filling your body as you inhale, be aware of the pause between inhalation and exhalation, and as you exhale forget yourself and your body and feel one with everything around you.

4. Visualization

The breathing described above helps to make the body calm and still. Follow him, feeling the area between your eyebrows. And while doing so, visualize Shiva in whatever form he appears in your mind.

It could be Nataraja, the Cosmic Dancer, Adiyoga, the meditating monk, or Ardanarishvara, the incarnation of the male and female aspects. Feel his presence and aura. Immerse yourself completely in it.

5. Sing

Sing his name in an attempt to merge with Shiva. "Om Namah Shivaya" means to pay homage to Shiva. Om is the original sound. This is the first sound of creation. Saying Om reflects creation, life and energy. Namah Shivaya are dedicated to Shiva.

Continue chanting "Om Namah Shivaya" at a pace that suits you. Mantras will help you feel Shiva within you. Continue until you feel that there is no "I" and you are Shiva and Shiva is merging with you, Shiva.

6. Bliss

Remain in this blissful moment of experiencing divinity. This helps clear the mind of clutter and bring it into one focus.

Rub your palms together and place them over your closed eyes. As a result of overcoming your own weight, you will feel as light as a feather. Allow this feeling to fully permeate you, then slowly open your eyes and your meditation is complete. This process can take anywhere from 30 minutes to several hours.

Benefits of Meditating on Shiva

Meditating on Shiva induces a state of deep calm and relaxation.

This meditation removes unnecessary thoughts.

Increases physical strength and stabilizes blood pressure.

Shiva meditation relaxes tense muscles and strengthens the immune system.

This will help you lose weight and get rid of addiction.

Slows aging and gives confidence.

Shiva meditation will help you get rid of all your fears and phobias.

This will help you control your thoughts.

Improves memory and helps improve relationships.

Shiva meditation helps you to be less responsive to unnecessary problems.

It helps me to deal with problems better without feeling anxious.

This will help you find your purpose in life.

Meditation on Shiva helps you forgive and become one with God.

How often do you practice Shiva meditation?

It is not easy to sit with full attention in Shiva meditation for a sufficient amount of time. Start with 5-10 minutes and gradually increase the duration over time and practice.

What is a strong mantra to Shiva?

Besides the Shiva Mulla Mantra, the Shiva Gayatri Mantra is considered the most powerful for pleasing Lord Shiva.

What happens when you meditate for the first time?

When you start meditating, you feel relaxed and peaceful. It can be difficult to focus at first, but as you develop the habit of meditating daily, you will notice a difference.

Can you meditate on music?

Yes, meditation on music can help increase its positive effects and bring more peace and tranquility. It can also help increase concentration during meditation.

Should I meditate before going to bed?

You can meditate whenever you want. Meditating before bed can help calm the mind and improve sleep.

Do you meditate on an empty stomach?

There are benefits to meditation on an empty stomach. It keeps your mind sharp and allows the air in your stomach to move more easily when you breathe deeply. This can be a bit difficult when your stomach is full.

Shiva Meditation helps you to control your mind and thoughts and opens your inner gaze to understand your inner self. From helping to regulate blood pressure and inducing a state of deep relaxation to dispelling fear and improving memory, the benefits of Shiva meditation are a long list to go through. Stretch your body properly to release muscle tension before starting this meditation. Practice daily chanting "Om Namah Shivaya" to transform your mental and emotional well-being.

Amita Buddha Preaching, early 19th century, Brooklyn Museum: Asian Art

Vertical painting depicting a seated, enthroned Buddha making a teaching gesture, flanked by two bodhisattvas below and two arhats above. The throne is surrounded by rainbow emanations, flames, and golden clouds. The red robe of the Buddha, combined with his mudras (hand gestures: the upper hand teaching and the lower hand in meditation stance) indicates that this is a representation of Amita Buddha (Sanskrit Amitabha) preaching, presumably in the Western Paradise. The Bodhisattva on the viewer's left appears to be Gwaneum (Sanskrit Avalokiteshvara) because of the lotus. The Bodhisattva on the viewer's right is usually understood to be Dae Seiji (Sanskrit Mahasthamaprapta) but this figure does not have obvious identifying features. The younger figure at the top left is the Arhat Ananda, while the older figure at the top right is the Arhat Mahakasyapa. The painting is in a plain blue mount. Size: Overall: 86 1/2 × 35 1/2 in.
