Probably cause they're 10 year olds who won't know the difference between romance and friendship? I mean, they are gods but still children.

Some things which seem interesting and worth noting:

Chhinnamasta is a Tantric Goddess. One of the Mahavidyas. She is always depicted as digambari, because of Her ferocious and primal nature. Not a piece of cloth on Her body. She stands on Kamdev and Rati in coitus, signifying how She’s above Kaam, the feelings of desire and lust. Those who saw this depiction and immediately saw only vulgarity have already missed the point of Maa Chhinamastika.

Each of these clowns is a Hindi-speaker. The dancer performed in Kolkata, West Bengal. The people of Bengal know Maa Chhinnamasta. They know Shakti. North Indians only know Hinduism. The sanitized version. Which is why their “sentiments” are hurt, and why none of them even know that’s Maa Chhinnamasta and not Maa Kali. Yes, that’s right. These people don’t even know whose depiction they are popping a vein over. It’s so embarrassing that it’s laughable. What’s next? Bipodtarini is Krishna-Kali? Krishna is Karl Marx?

These people are ignoring all other bullshit happening, btw. BJP can deploy some rando dressed as Hanuman to dance for them like a Baiji, Ram Mandir donations can get stolen, Kanwar Yatra can become an absolutely abhorrent shitshow of vile debasement of our culture in the name of “Sanatana Dharma”. But when people from different parts of India follow Hinduism as per local beliefs, they demand censorship and that everyone abide by their version of what Hinduism should be.

But here’s the thing. This isn’t a one-off thing. Ignorant fools online are running amok with dung for brains, calling bare-chested depictions of Maa Kali as “shameful”, or Dhumavati’s old wrinkly depictions as resembling a “Pretni”, that Kamdev and Rati being shown enthusiastically snuggling with each other is "not right". These people are allergic to faithful adaptations. To our own scriptures. These people are why Ramayan movies are Ramacharitramanas at best, instead of Valmiki Ramayan. None of you can stomach something that isn't something from within your limited understanding of Hinduism.

Moral of the Story:

Those who have 0 idea of what’s going on should ideally be the ones to keep shut, but really, they’re the ones to howl the loudest. You can’t tell our Goddesses apart, you don’t know how our Goddesses look or how they’re depicted, you don’t know shit about Hinduism besides your limited local beliefs. So why should anyone give a damn about what you have to say about anyone else’s faith? Non-Shaktas don’t shouldn’t get to decide how Shaktas should follow their faith, and never talk about Shakta traditions without atleast the basic amount of research. Tantric depictions of Deities are obviously going to be the ones followed in places with history of Tantra Sadhana. I swear the Bangladeshi Immigrants removed during SIR probably had a better grasp of Bengal’s Religion than these cow abusers. I hope every such person chokes on their plate of grass during Navratri while Bangalis enjoy meat dishes during Durga Puja. Hinduism isn't a monolith. Respect others' practices or be shamed like a Mlechha for your own as well.

For context

This is the performance:

Chhinnamasta

Dhumavati

Kali

And this is how the Goddesses are represented:

Vasudevātmajam

The son of Vasudev

LET'S GOOOOOO

-------------------------------------

Arc 5 : Lies .

Chitra couldn’t.

Lying to the one person who had been privy to her innermost thoughts? Impossible.

And the fact that this same person just so happened to be Paramatman himself? Even more so.

But still—

…for the sake of her own pride.

She turned her face over her shoulder. He still hadn’t let her move.

“I haven’t had such thoughts.”

Lies.

Everyone knew. She knew. He knew. Hell, even the breeze and the flickering flames knew.

And yet, for some reason, the thought of lying straight to the face of Paramatma—

thrilled her.

He stilled.

Only for a mere second.

But it was enough for her to notice.

Bingo.

Her eyes glittered with triumph.

His breath left him in a quiet huff, lips quirking upward just a little.

“Lying to my face now, hm?” he murmured. “Have I spoiled you that much?”

Chitra huffed softly, chin lifting a fraction despite the way his arms still held her firmly in place.

“If you’re going to accuse me of something, Narayan,” she said lightly, “at least accuse me of something impressive.”

For a moment, he said nothing.

Then his grip tightened—subtle, deliberate—reminding her that she hadn’t been allowed to move an inch since he’d arrived.

“Impressive,” he echoed, voice low.

“You don’t think imagining what my skin would taste like—after you’ve taken off my garlands—is impressive?”

Her lips curved despite herself.

“Considering you manifested yourself just to argue about it,” she replied, then added lightly,

“I’d even say you liked it.”

That did it.

A quiet laugh left him—warm against her ear, vibrating straight through her ribs.

“Careful,” he murmured. “You forget who you’re speaking to.”

“No,” she said instantly. “I remember very well. That’s the problem.”

Silence fell between them—thick, charged.

Then his hands loosened. Just a little.

“Very well,” he said thoughtfully. “If you’ve never imagined it… then turn around.”

Her breath caught.

She didn’t move.

The lamps flickered.

“…You’re cruel,” she muttered.

“No,” he corrected gently. “I’m honest.”

His presence pressed closer—heavier now.

“For ten years,” he continued softly, “I have stood silent while your thoughts wandered far beyond devotion.”

Her voice came quieter than she meant it to.

“You could’ve stopped me… if you didn’t like the way I thought.”

A pause.

Longer this time.

“…Mm.”

“I didn’t,” he murmured.

Then, softer still—final.

“I liked it.”

Her throat tightened.

She swallowed. “You did?”

His breath brushed her ear again.

“Yes,” he said, almost amused.

“And yet here you are—lying about it. To me.”
