Origem da pena de pavão de Krishna
Sanatana Goswami, comentando o verso do Bhag.10.21.10,diz que Krsna tocou mrdu-mandra em sua flauta. Mrdu significa doçura e mandra é o som produzido pelo trovão. O pavão tem por natureza dançar enlouquecido assim que vê o céu ficar escuro e trovoar. Vendo o esplendor natural de Giriraja Govardhana, Ele tocou Sua flauta suavemente. Ao ouvirem essa vibração profunda, os pavões ficaram loucos, dançando no ritmo da flauta com o leque de suas caudas completamente aberto. Todos os animais , aves e insetos de Vrndavana se reuniram para ver a cena.
Os pavões pensam: "Ele está tocando uma melodia maravilhosa e ao dançarmos com ela, sentimos grande ananda, mas nada temos para oferecer-Lhe em troca". Um desses pavões pensou: " Não tenho nada de valor para Lhe dar. Sou apenas uma ave, mas as penas da minha cauda são valiosas! Elas são tão atrativas com as sua cores, então porque não oferecer-Lhe uma delas?".
Desta maneira, o pavão deixou cair uma de suas penas.
Ao vê-la Krsna pensou: " Esse pavão é muito amável; apreciou a Minha apresentação tocando flauta e Me ofereceu uma de suas penas".
Krsna pegou a pena do chão e colocou em sua cabeça, pensando: "Assim com o a flauta Me é muito querida, agora essa será Minha pena de estimação. Para onde for em Vraja, nunca abandonarei a flauta ou essa pena de pavão".

Madan, the name of the god of love in Sanatan Dharma. It is said that when all the other gods, fearing an angry Shiva, did not go before him, Madanadeva, in a simple mind, went before him, to pacify Shiva, and, consumed by the fire of Shiva's eyes (panchasara), was reduced to ashes. Perhaps, due to this incident, fools or simple minded people came to be called madans.

Excerpt from www.hindustantimes.com/htcity/trips-tours/north-america-s...:
In a vibrant celebration of faith, a 51-foot statue of Lord Ram was inaugurated at the Hindu Heritage Centre in Mississauga. Here's what the internet had to say
In a historic moment for the Indian diaspora in Canada, the tallest statue of Lord Ram in North America was unveiled on Sunday at the Hindu Heritage Centre in Mississauga, Ontario. Towering at an impressive 51 feet (excluding the pedestal and umbrella), the fibreglass idol now stands as a spiritual and cultural landmark in the Greater Toronto Area.
The unveiling of North America’s tallest Lord Ram statue in Mississauga sparked emotional reactions across social media. “From Ayodhya to Ontario, the name of Shri Ram echoes louder than borders. This is not just a statue, it's a statement of faith and identity standing tall across the world,” wrote one user. Another noted, “Toronto, Canada: The tallest Murti of Bhagwan Shri Ram now stands tall in Mississauga — a proud moment for the global Hindu community. In a land where Hindus have faced rising hostility from fringe Khalistani elements, this Murti is more than a symbol of faith — it’s a statement of resilience, peace, and presence. Sanatan stands tall.” Others chimed in with messages like, “Let’s make Canada great again,” and, “Grand and beautiful.”
Constructed in Delhi and assembled by skilled craftsmen in Canada, the statue draws inspiration from the Ram Janmabhoomi Temple in Ayodhya. Built with a steel superstructure and designed to last at least 100 years, the idol is engineered to endure wind speeds of up to 200 km/hr—symbolising not just devotion, but durability.
“This is a spiritual gift to the community,” said Acharya Surinder Sharma Shastri, founder of the Hindu Heritage Centre. “The installation of this murti is not just a moment of pride, but also a reminder that righteousness must always be the guiding factor in our lives.”
The monumental project began four years ago and was made possible by a generous donation from an Indo-Canadian business leader. For Kushagr Sharma, principal organiser of the event, the turnout was deeply moving. “To witness over 10,000 people come together in devotion and unity for the unveiling of Shri Ram’s 51-foot-tall murti was truly remarkable. This event was not just a celebration of our faith, but a proud moment for all Canadians who value cultural harmony and spiritual heritage.”
Excerpt from en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rama:
Rama is a major deity in Hinduism. He is worshipped as the seventh and one of the most popular avatars of Vishnu. In Rama-centric Hindu traditions, he is considered the Supreme Being. Also considered as the ideal man (maryāda puruṣottama), Rama is the male protagonist of the Hindu epic Ramayana. His birth is celebrated every year on Rama Navami, which falls on the ninth day of the bright half (Shukla Paksha) of the lunar cycle of Chaitra (March–April), the first month in the Hindu calendar.

história da pena de pavão de Krishna
Comentando o verso 10.21.10, do Bhâgavata Purâna, Sanatana Goswami diz que Krsna tocou mrdu-mandra em sua flauta.
Mrdu significa doçura e mandra é o som produzido pelo trovão.
O pavão tem por natureza dançar enlouquecido assim que vê o céu ficar escuro e trovoar.
Vendo o esplendor natural de Giriraja Govardhana, Ele tocou Sua flauta suavemente.
Ao ouvirem essa vibração profunda, os pavões ficaram loucos, dançando no ritmo da flauta com o leque de suas caudas completamente aberto. Todos os animais, aves e insetos de Vrndavana se reuniram para ver a cena.
Os pavões pensam: "Ele está tocando uma melodia maravilhosa e ao dançarmos com ela, sentimos granda ananda, mas nada temos para oferecer-Lhe em troca". Um desses pavões pensou: " Não tenho nada de valor para Lhe dar. Sou apenas uma ave, mas as penas da minha cauda são valiosas! Elas são tão atrativas com as sua cores, então porque não oferecer-Lhe uma delas?".
Desta maneira, o pavão deixou cair uma de suas penas.
Ao vê-la Krsna pensou: " Esse pavão é muito amável; apreciou a Minha apresentação tocando flauta e Me ofereceu uma de suas penas".
Krsna pegou a pena do chão e colocou em sua cabeça, pensando: "Assim com o a flauta Me é muito querida, agora essa será Minha pena de estimação. Para onde for em Vraja, nunca abandonarei a flauta ou essa pena de pavão".
Shri Sanatan Hindu Mandir, Ealing Road, Alperton. North West London. Shame that photography is not allowed inside. It's well worth going to have a look.
The photo was taken in a evening of "Sarassati Puja" (Sarassati is the GOD of education in religion of "Hindu" or "Sanatan")
A little girl was watching there GOD so attentivly in a "Mandir"(The place of prayer)
I was just behind her, and imaginatively can seeing the conversation between Her and her GOD. I cant really explain the matter but my photo can Do ;-)

In Sanatan Dharma (Hinduism), the deep saffron color is associated with sacrifice, religious abstinence, quest for light and salvation. Saffron or bhagwa is the most sacred color for the Hindus and is often worn by sanyasis who have left their home in search of the ultimate truth.

This looks like a holiday snap from India but it's actually a hindu temple in north London that I stumbled across last night. I managed to have a quick look around before it closed and the inside is very impressive although no photography allowed so you'll just have to take my word for it :-) While I was photographing it from the street, some guy told me there was another (even more impressive) temple in Neasden which I'll have to check out some time soon.
