Annapoorani
In Sanskrit 'Anna' means food and 'purna' means complete; together the term Annapurna signifies nourishing with food to the fullest. The Devi Annapurna is the goddess of food and harvest and is believed to be the one who fills the stomachs of the hungry with her noble powers. In Hindu belief she is the one endowed with the powers to supply food in a limitless form. She is the divine symbol of nourish and care she provides to her children. In common parlance at Hindu households if people waste food, it is said that they in turn make Annapurna Devi angry. The idol of goddess Annapurna devi is always shown with a bowl which is always filled with grain, representing the bountiful of food she has to offer to her children
The origin of Goddess Annapurna is related to the mythological tale of Lord Brahma and Vishnu being worried about the extinction of food from earth resulting in perishing of many human beings. These gods pleaded to Lord Shiva who invited the goddess Annapurna to earth and begged for food from her. Lord Shiva distributed the food received from the Devi and since then promised her that she should continue to nourish the people of earth and in turn he would give moksha to the people of Kasi where the goddess resides.
Testimonials
It has always been a pleasure and soul-satisfying experience to be amidst the wonderful creations at Thejus. I've always felt at home with the courtesy and affection shown by all at Thejus; they've been helpful in suggesting the appropriate creations depending on the occasion and our budget. To cite my recent experience, I was at Thejus on this 19th. I visited Thejus with twin opbjective of buying your recent creation the "Music Coin' as well a gift for my son and daughter-in-lw on their First Wedding Anniversary.As I was struggling to choose the most appropriate piece, I was shown and suggested the Bullock-cart; a piece so craftefully made; for the Newly Wed, I felt this would indeed be the most appropriate Gift. Along with Shri Kanagadhara Music Coin we,, my WifeViji and myself, gifted this set to our Children. Yes, online could be an advantage; but nothing to off-set the pleasure and immense peace of mind I derive by spending some time at Thejus; to be appropriate, it has always been like Medidating, the time I have spent at Thejus. With all best wishes for this Noble Venture.
