Teachings of Lakshmi and Saraswati – A Thousand Seeds of Joy – A Gem written by Ananda Karunesh

There is a debate in our society, whether Patriarchial society is best or the matriarchal one?

Before the invasion of mughals and British, Indian Society was much Matriarchal, but the historians were having somehow insecure kind of mindset, so they wrote the history the way it suited them.

This book “A Thousand Seeds of Joy” written by Ananda Karunesh enlightens the feminine power.

Feminity is not about equality, but it’s about nurturing, caring, taking charge, managing herself with confidence, supervising her thoughts and emotions, inculcating wisdom, selflessness, compassion, authenticity, grace and connection with her roots [evolving one].

Feminity is about relieving herself from the notion of “Limiting Beliefs”. It will help them being ‘Pragmatic’.

Ananda Karunesh writes in his book – “Divine beings are around us, but we need to expand our inner eye to see them.” He experienced a blissful talk with Goddess Lakshmi and Goddess Saraswati. He eagerly shares that talk with us to give us the same blissful experience.

He says – “While my devotion to Goddess Lakshmi was transferring my desires and my passions into JOY and ABUNDANCE. My devotion to Goddess Saraswati was transforming my emotions and intellect into LOVE and WISDOM.” So True

Here as a reader, I am not saying that we women can touch the energies of our Goddesses, but we can learn and inculcate so many things within us.

As a society, we should stop comparing humans with our Gods and Goddesses. We can never and should not try to be like GOD.

इंसान बन जाएं , वही बहुत है।

In this book, Ananda puts a light on the fact that THE RAMAYAN was altered over centuries to suit the beliefs of its authors, who valued Patriarchy.

According to Ananda, the incident of Agni Pariksha and Blames from a washerman are just gossips to leave the impact like – If Goddess like Sita can be thrown out of her home, it would set am an example for ordinary women to not commit adultery.

Going to the forest with sons Love and Kush was a mutual decision taken by Prabhu Ram and Mata Sita.

This portion agitated me a bit. For me – Mata Sita is ‘Shakti’ who performs her duties with full zeal, enthusiasm and commitment.

She has been an inspiration for me from my childhood. I have always seen her as a Feminine Power, who never accepts defeat in any kind of situation. She has always been an IDEAL Incarnation of Mata Lakshmi for me.

We as humans are so wounded if anyone carves even a little bit, we are so hurt, just because the wounded part of ours has forgotten the immense depth of Love and Joy.

After going through the book, that is officially my first book, as a Reader, I agree with the writer that Women should raise their arms in joy and surrender to raise their children.

Women need to embrace their divine feminine and divine masculine sides instead of succumbing to their wounded masculine side to hide their wounded feminine side.

The more we express ourselves in our early years, there is more harmony and more balance in our body in our last years. We all can create a holy place within ourselves.

We as women can create a relationship with emotional value, sweet and joyful. We should surrender our minds to our hearts.

Karunesh has used the word ‘Soul’ again and again. According to me, that Soul doesn’t mean “Aatma” but that means Soul is a manifestation of a divine being, consisting of Joy, Gratitude, Compassion, Freedom, Peace, Forgiveness etc.

Aatma is always blissful, but our mind is not. It works based on past experiences and recollection of data from our mind.

If our mind is in TURMOIL and the body is AGITATED, then we feel difficulty in attaining that JOY. For that Meditation is a must.

Whoever is glancing at this piece of writing, my recommendation is to buy the book and READ. Not just read, but drink it sip by sip.

You won’t regret it. This will certainly change your mindset about Feminine Power. You will feel like having a conversation with Mata Lakshmi and Mata Saraswati and will feel like filled with SHAKTI.
