"Devi lasciare che i tuoi figli se ne vadano, se vuoi che rimangano con te" ((Malcolm Forbes)

Kalyanpur,Tripura (India) .

Chhatris are an integral part of Rajasthan’s architecture. In many parts of the state, you may come across a cluster of Chhatris in an uninhabited location outside the town. There are usually Cenotaphs, built in memory of the kings. Here is one such cluster of Chhatris outside Bikaner town, called Devi kund sagar.

Inika comparison, as always, with Lianyu.

Durga Puja is widely celebrated in the Indian states of Assam, Mithila region of Bihar and Nepal, Jharkhand, Manipur, Odisha, Tripura and West Bengal, where it is a five-day annual holiday.[4] In West Bengal, Tripura, which has a majority of Bengali Hindus, it is the biggest festival of the year. In Assam due to presence of huge number of Bengali Hindus and quite a large number of Assamese Hindus of Shakta sect of Hinduism (Assam is predominantly Vaishnavite Hindu populous state), it is one of the biggest religious festivals, as the biggest festival is Bihu which is secular in nature. Not only is it the biggest Hindu festival celebrated throughout the state, it is also the most significant socio-cultural event in Bengali Hindu society. Apart from eastern India, Durga Puja is also celebrated in Delhi, Uttar Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, Punjab, Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand, Madhya Pradesh, Goa, Telengana, Tamil Nadu, Sikkim,Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Kerala. Durga Puja is also celebrated as a major festival in Nepal where 82% population is Hindu, and in Bangladesh where 8.5% population is Hindu. Nowadays, many diaspora Assamese and Bengali cultural organisations arrange for Durgotsab in countries such as the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Australia, Germany, France, The Netherlands, Singapore and Kuwait, among others. In 2006, a grand Durga Puja ceremony was held in the Great Court of the British Museum.[5]

Devi Parvati's Idol in the sanctum sanctorum of Sri Rameshawara Swamy Temple on Ramadevara Betta, Ramanagara.

....Devi sapere ancor sorridere

Quando il bel tempo se ne và

E resta solo la tristezza

E giorni di infelicità

Devi sapere, che in questa angoscia

La dignità devi salvar

Malgrado il male che ti senti

Devi partir senza tornar

Preghi il destino, che ti disarma

Per pietà, non mi far morir

Devi sapere, celare il pianto

Ma il mondo è nato per soffrir

Devi sapere, lasciar la tavola

Quando all'amor non servi più

Alzarti con indifferenza

Mentre in silenzio soffri tu

Devi sapere, celar le pene

E mascherare il tuo dolor

Tenere l'odio in te nascosto

E aver l'inferno in fondo al cuor

Devi sapere restar di ghiaccio

Pur se il tuo cuor, brucia di rancor

Devi sapere, lasciar la vita

Ma l'amo troppo ancor

E dirle addio non sò

Devi sapere però, io non lo sò...

Meenakshi Devi at Om Shakthi Temple, Kammanahalli, Bengaluru.

Meenakshi is a Hindu goddess and is considered an avatar of the goddess Parvati. She is the divine consort of Sundareśvarar, a form of Shiva. The goddess is also extolled by Adi Shankara as Shri Vidya.

Her hair is a special thermal saran which changes with heat. The easiest way to do this indoors is to use a blowdryer on her hair. In CA during the summer, I can just leave her out in the sun for about 30 seconds and her hair is immediately yellow. As soon as it is room temperature again, the hair turns back to orange.

Gangama Devi Temple, Temple Street, Malleshwaram, Bengaluru.

This shrine of Mansa Devi watches over the town of Haridwar, Ottaranchal, India. As per the legend, Haridwar is the place where Mansa Devi rested after killing demon Mahishasur.

Haridwar at the bank of Ganga is ideal place to rest for Gods and humans both. One can spend hours looking over the cool flow of Ganga and the hustle of devotees around.

India's second-highest peak and the 23rd highest mountain in the world, its one of the most difficult peaks to climb and has been out of bounds for more than two decades. Folklore is that a nuclear observation device rests half way to the top of the peak, left behind by the CIA and Indian Army, sometime in the mid-70s. It was planned for use to observe Chinese troop movements but after placing it, the CIA soon lost signal. A blizzard and avalanche buried the device under many feet of snow!

Nanda Devi is one of the most beautiful peaks in the Himalayas, with a distinct twin-hump, the east peak (Nanda Devi East) is behind the main peak in this image, easily viewed in profile from Binsar and other parts of the Kumaon Himalayas. The "Devi" is worshipped as the local Goddess that protects all living creatures in this part of the world.

Apparently Government spent INR 2 Crores ($367,000) to built this small structure. You can find thousand of such structures in India. Easy money for the contractors and ministers! And yes, we are the number one corrupted country of the world. So no surprises there! :))

Quite a quick build, I wanted to create a Doll using muppets. Originally were going to be way bigger (using Mr. Moonlight head design), but after start desining her, those would have been way too big, so I changed them for regular minifigs.

Devi

Devi is not a divine soul which is worshiped by human being ..It is the existence of creative power within ourselves .

Fun fact: Before the discovery of Everest and other Eight Thousanders by the Great Trigonometrical Survey of India, Nanda Devi was considered to be the tallest mountain peak on planet Earth.
