Mahashivratri ki sabko shubhkaamnayen!

The Creation is based on three eternal processes: the birth, the survival and the end. Now that the working agent for the processes is energy which is also considered to have female characteristics, our ancient thinkers modelled the icons of three Mahadevies to represent it in its three different roles. But when they thought that the everlasting and senseless parts of the energy engaged in the three different jobs could do nothing unless they were operated by something that knew what to do and not to do and found them violating no law, though they had been able to, they continued the search and found a great mind controlling and running them. They then contrived the idols of two Mahadevas to symbolize that great mind. The first of the Mahadevas is called Sadashiv, the husband of the two similar Mahadevies called Maa Durga, who was witnessed by the thinkers as a big blast, creating universes, and Mahakali as a black thing in the centre of universes, devouring everything which was needful. Now the things that a universe is made of are interdependent and therefore useful; and all that is useful has value. Then everything that is valuable is wealth and wealth is called Mahalaxami, the third of the Mahadevies and the consort of Narain, the second of the Mahadevas, who like a king rules the universes and enforces unalterable laws favourable to the entities in terms of their survival and lust for life. Those who worship Shiva enjoy a harmless life and finally a comfortable journey to Heaven. Om Namah Shivay.... Mahashivratri ki sabko shubhkaamnayen!
