Very well explained. Normally in our temple visits either the focus gets alienated or there is none to explain the intricacies.

Nice clear explanation and photos. Didn’t know
that Mother-in-law had to be convinced, also.
You’d think after ending up w a ram-headed husband, she’d get the idea. Like your humour, too.

This is very nice! Seeing this just remembered the story of Sundareshwarar, wherein Lord Shiva comes well dressed with beautiful ornaments and silk clothing and a crown for marrying Meenakshi. What a contrast!

Hi vj,
Nice panel indeed. I recently finished the Kumarasambhava and unfortunately I did not see this ant mention of Mena (Menai) being disturbed on arrival of Shiva in such an attire. However I have also heard this story however can’t recall whether in reference to Uma’s marriage or Sati’s marriage.
