Is this 3 in 1 acceptable to Knowledgable and informed?
Any form that please should be enough. Each has their own symbol what ever that be. Let us be happy with our choice and let others have their own. Why do we try to impose our symbol on others.
I am amused. LOL.
More amusement for you

But when Krishna himelf wants Anasuya to remove her saree who is there to turn to for help!! Krisna Leelai! Put on your Philosophical glasses to see the true meaning!

I admit. I am more amused now. LORL.
dear Vaagmi ji,
I hope you can edit your quoted portion cos you quoted what I said along with what JJ said and people reading it are going to think I wrote both. I did not write about Krishna in this thread.
As it is many are reading what I write wrongly and misunderstanding the meaning of many words and imagine it to mean something else and accuse me for crimes I did not commit....so please delete what I did not write.
Done. I understand your point.
Thanks...otherwise I will have people waiting to blow me up!LOL

Shri Dattatreya, his Avataras and Famous Datta Kshetras
Sage Atri on his return to the hermitage saw his wife Anusuya fondling three babies. Anusuya said "These children are the gift of God to us who have been childless so far". Sage Atri was overjoyed and named them Datta, which means 'given'. At this the three Gods reverted to their real forms and disclosed the truth. They extolled the power of Chastity and Purity of Anusuya which vanquished the combined and colossal powers of all three of them. Sage Atri and Anusuya prayed that they should remain as their sons. They consented and the three Gods merged into one body.
I had the golden opportunity to see the statue of Anasuys with the 3 children...Any guesses where?

A divine dream? or in some foreign country like Bali Indonesia?
Nope..One clue..It is in our National Capital -New Delhi...
I think there is an 'Anusuya Ashrama' somewhere in the North.. I remember seeing it that had the statues of Anusuya and the mumurthis as 3 children in an episode of 'Ramanin Padhayil' if memory serves me right...
