Great post, I too like shiva as DH, great body, and philosophical not materialistic. all organic, Only thing I am scared of snakes.

Small thing I want to say, It is Anantha sayya, meaning Anantha(snake name) as sayya (bed). Not ananthasayana,

Vishnu is known as Ananthasayana. It can have two meanings. First someone reclining on anantha the serpentt and also someone who is on an eternal repose.

So the "Bhadrakali" remark at the end of the thread is right on the target.

Bhadrakali is one of the form of a woman to destroy evils.

Dear Balajee,

After I finished Abhisekha to the Lord Shiva in the Temple, attended Shiva Bhajans non-stop for 4 hours plus, I returned home to sleep peacefully last night, only to read this post of yours the next morning! Abhacharam!

Seriously, I am a believer in the freedom of speech and you have every right to question the appearance of Lord Shiva. Besides, your intention is to be humorous.

In the process of listing all negative traits that present day unmarried girls will look at about the Lord Shiva, you have missed many positive traits the Lord is described to have naturally.

1) He consider his spouse as one-half of Himself and which woman in the right frame of mind won't like it?

2) He is constantly in the meditative state and He teaches Vedas to Ganas. If a woman wants to become spiritual and knowledgeable about the scriptures, He is the man she needs to marry

3) He has enormous power of destruction and no one with a right frame of mind would meddle with Him or His spouse. What better protection one needs than that?

4) Anyone who worships Him from the bottom of the heart, can please Him so quickly and He gives whatever boon he/she wants. He is a Lord with great heart which woman won't like Him?

5) He has consumed the poison that came out of the snake in order to save the world so that others can enjoy Amrit. He sets an example how to serve the world.

6) Lord Shiva was the first one who brought the fashion of dreadlocks. Nowadays, recent generation girls either like boys with dreadlocks and beard or clean shaven head.

7) Which woman with a right frame of mind will not like a great dancer? The world goes crazy when King of Pop Michael Jackson makes a moon walk. But the Lord can dance with a real moon in his dreadlocks.

8) If new generation girls accept men with ripped and unwashed jeans worn slightly below the underwear with a T-shirt that has not seen water for weeks, why won't they accept a handsome, fair-complexion Lord Shiva wearing Tiger skin?

9) Which spouse will not like to live in a most beautiful natural surrounding on a mountain top overlooking a beautiful lake? She will feel like being on vacation every minute.

10) Lastly, Lord Shiva has no parents and you have to read at least 2-3 posts in Relationships Forum to understand the benefit of marrying someone like that.

Viswa, frankly, if you had a daughter, would you believe that a groom who smokes pot, drinks bhang, frequents cremation grounds with unsavory characters like demons and ghosts and has his body covered with bhasma and violates animal rights by wearing a tiger skin is the ideal husband for her? True the biggest advantage of Siva is that the wife will have no MIL hassles but there is always the snake problem..

What if the DIL takmes the bhadrakali form considering the MIL as evil?

Balajee · Feb 26, 2017

Also which girl would like a DH who is perpetually on a short fuse? Shiva is Rudra remember? And when he is calm and meditative in his Dakshinamoorthy form, he wouldn't give two hoots for a wife. He wouldn't even look at her.

I read somewhere in facebook today that in many south Indian households girls are made to fast on Monday so that they can have a husband like Shiva. I was jolted . Who on earth would like to have a husband like Shiva?

Ladies, please give me your reactions to tell me you would like to have a DH like Shiva. Seriously ? a DH who seems to suffer from bad hair millennia not just bad hair days (matted locks and all that). Wears tiger skin (whatever happened to animal rights?) has snakes crawling all over him and to make matter worse consumes bhang and smokes pot. (Funny thing is booze shops are closed on Mahashivaratri but bhang shops are open. That means intoxication is fine if it does not come from booze).

Why should ordinary mortal women have such husband when Parvati herself left no stone unturned to ensure that her DH dressed in a propah manner by luring him many times to take the form of Sundareswara, the handsome, more fashionable aspect of Shiva?

And Shiva is a fantastic dancer. Can the wife of mortal shivas keep up step with their hubbies (The shaadi.com matrimonial of these guys would read “ Wanted, an expert dancer wife”)

Why should any mortal woman have husbands who are like gods? I wonder, would any woman like a Brahma like husband?. I am sure she would be the cynosure of all eyes at parties as she walks in with a four headed hubby.

Or Vishnu all blue with four hands. First the poor lady would have hell of a trouble waking him up from his deep slumber. After all Vishnu is the eternal sleeper, Ananthasayana.

If the girls would like a husband like Krishna great. Handsome chap, great musician. Just make sure you don’t become jealous. Krishna was a committed polygamist. Every Rukmini will have to keep a watchful eye for some Satyabhma or Jambavati (This guy is a real wonder. He had 16,000 wives! Only a god could have copeed with so many sets of in-laws).

And any Indra must be protected by a jealous DW from the charms of some Rambha Oorvasi or Menaka.

And men are no better because they seek divine wives. When ever a marriage alliance is planned the standard clichéd description to lure a prospective groom is “she looks like Mahalakshmi”. It is always Mahalakshmi who is the yardstick. Nobody will say that she is “knowledgeable like Saraswati”

And when things sour later after marriage, the MIL will invariable describe the DIL as “She is a Bhadrakali”.

Dear Balaji,

I wanted to comment something different from what others have posted here, waiting for the right moment and today I got it. This is some ordinary news about an extraordinary husband, visually challenged, who helped his pregnant wife, who got labour pains even before reaching the hospital. Under her instructions he helped her deliver a healthy baby. Here is a living God who stood by his wife in times of crisis, which I am sure even the Real Gods would have thought about twice before getting down to the basics. So who wants a Shiva,Vishnu or Brahma as a husband. I would put such hands on, practical husbands on a pedestal and do Pooja four times! Thanks for such snippets which activates our rusty brains!
