Goddess Yashoda Maiya

Goddess Yashoda was the deity, who brought up Krishna, the son of Devaki and Vasudeva, a mythological king. The image of yashoda illustrates an incident of the birth of Krishna.

Vasudeva two wife first Rohini and second is Devaki. After the marriage of Devaki, her brother Kansa had a premonition that her eighth son would kill him. On the request of Vasudeva, Kansa did not kill Devaki immediately. But, Kansa proceeded to kill the first six of Devaki`s sons. When Devaki pregnant for the seventh time, Vishnu transferred the embryo to Rohini`s womb to prevent the child to get murdered by Kansa and it was announced that Devaki had miscarried. When the child was born later, it was called Balarama.


Now, Vishnu was Devaki`s eighth son whom her brother Kansa is confirmed to kill. But, Lord Vishnu managed the situation in such a way that Devaki and Yashoda would give birth at the same time and Yashoda would forget the sex of her child. It happened as planned and on the night of the child`s birth, Vasudeva took his son and left him with Yashoda in exchange for her daughter whom he took back to Devaki. In this way, Vishnu was born as Krishna and was brought up by Nanda and Yashoda in the safety of the country.


On the other hand, Vasudeva and Devaki pretended that their eighth child was a daughter. Yashoda brought up Krishna thinking him to be her own child. But later, she became aware of the fact when Krishna became a young boy and had to leave for Mathura to kill Kansa. But, she still adored Krishna like her own child

Goddess Radha Rani

Goddess Radharani is the Supreme Goddess. Sri Radha, also known as Vrishbhanu Nandini, was born to Sri Vrishbhanuji and Mata Kirti in the land of Barsana. The divine Goddess blessed this Earth by Her birth on the nuptial day of Ashtami of Bhadrapad Shukla Paksh. Sri Radha Rani marks the existence of Sri Krishna, for she is his soul. She is most always seen with Lord Krishna. It is described that She is the Chief Associate and devotee of Lord Krishna, and topmost of all Goddesses. Her name means the She is the most excellent worshiper of Lord Krishna. However, she is also an expansion of the Lord's energy.


Since she is also an extension of Krishna, She is the feminine aspect of God. Thus, in the Gaudiya Vaishnava tradition, God is both male and female. They are one, but Krishna expands into two, Himself and Radharani, for the sake of divine loving pastimes. If they remained as one, then there is no relationship, there are no pastimes, and there can be no dynamic exchange of love.

Goddess Annapurna Mata

Goddess Annapurna Mata is the Hindu goddess of food and cooking. Annapurna is empowered with the ability to supply food to an unlimited amount of people. Annapurna means in Sanskrit 'Anna' means food and 'purna' means complete; together the term Annapurna signifies nourishing with food to the fullest. Food is one of the basic necessities of life, and it is no wonder that we say ‘Annam Brahma’, food is God. Annapurna is an incarnation of Parvati. She is often seen giving food to her husband, Shiva. Shiva is seen begging with a skull begging bowl as Annapurna doles out food to her lover. In south India you often find images of Annapurna anywhere people eat. In Hindu belief she is the one endowed with the powers to supply food in a limitless form. She is the divine symbol of nourish and care she provides to her children. In common parlance at Hindu households if people waste food, it is said that they in turn make Annapurna Devi angry.

The most popular temple of Annapurna is at Kashi followed by the one at Horanadu, in Karnataka. There are two other temples of Annapurna, one in Kerala, and one in Gujarat. I have not yet had the pleasure of visiting these last two temples. When I do, I shall surely write about them. Meanwhile, read about my visit to the Annapoorna Temple at Kashi.

A Jayanti is a festival dedicated to Goddess Annapurna Hindu goddess of food and cooking. It is observed on the full moon day in the month of Margashirsh. In some regions an Annapurna Vrat is observed during the period. Goddess Annapurna is believed to be an incarnation of Goddess Parvati. Annapurna Jayanti date is 2 December.

Meera Bai was a princess of some province in Rajasthan ( Mewar ), and when she was a kid , on, seeing one of her closed one getting married, she pesterd her Mom to get her married too . And finding her not being bobbed down on being told that she can't marry now , her mother gave her an idol of Lord Krishna and told her that this is your husband and you can get married to him now. And after that she devoted her whole life to Lord Krishna.

She was married at a young age to a boy from Bhojraj. “In the Bhojraj there is Baala Krishna. It seems none can escape His maaya. All the vanitas forget everything and completely come under His control it seems. They leave their families too. Please be careful my dear this is what everybody kept on warning Meera Bai before she left for Bhojraj.

Finally the moment when she had to leave for Bhojraj came. She was taken to Bhojraj in a beautiful pallaqi. On the way to Vrajam there was severe very heavy rain with thunders. The severity increased and there were huge boulders falling. The people carrying the pallaqi left it and ran for their lifes. Not knowing what happened Meera Bai opened the pallaqi window and saw this paramaadbhuta drushyam: And finally seeing her undivided devotion, her mother in law gave her poison and she readily drank it and died.
