moon of Betelgeuse

The Government of Siam supports the ten day Margasira fest.
A man is decked up as Shiva.
And is welcomed into the festive premises from the north-eastern or Ishaanya corner.

- In east facing south Indian temples, the Nataraja shrine is sited at the Ishaanya sector. -

Seated with raised left and lowered right feet, 'Shiva'  swings up and down.
And takes care, his feet never touches the ground.
Many niymas are followed, before and during this festival.
Both commoners and royalty participate.

- Shri Chandrashekarendra Saraswati, Kanchi (1959)

Jove on land

Three vedas, the rational Sankhya, Eightfold yoga, worship of Shiva or Vishnu are all various rivulets, that ferry people to the same blue waters, says Pushpadanta in 'Shiva Mahimna Stotra'.

In similar spirit is the saying,
 'Jehovah, Jove on land'.
Jehovah  is a Hebrew, Semitic divinity.
Jove or Jupiter was worshipped by Hellenic people.

Variously addressed as Lord, Ishwara, is the self same entity.

- Shri Chandrashekarendra Saraswwathi, Kanchi.
