    Devi Saraswathi puja place with facebook wallpaper!

    Namaste all,

    I played on my twitter and I saw this tweet
    https://twitter.com/tunghiii/status/...244096/photo/1

    I expect that place locates in India. Nice creation!

    Namaste Jeff08,

    While this could be seen by some as insulting, trivializing, or simply
    inappropriate, the are two other thoughts I draw from this: one is that it is
    a wry comment on what people's behavior, as opposed to their words, say
    about their worship and devotion, especially amongst the younger
    generations... which would cause more genuine distress, the loss of a local
    mandir/opportunity for puja and darshan- or the loss of local Internet
    services?

    Another thought is that Maa Saraswati perhaps is indulgent in Her
    devotees' attempts to be modern and clever.. after all, all forms of learning
    and communication, speech and technology, belong to Her- and though
    facebook is not in of itself a divine creation, it would not be possible
    without Her.. As I do not know the minds of those responsible for what is
    pictured, I do not wish to speculate overmuch- it is certainly thought-provoking, in any event.

    JAI MATA DI

    Ah...ha! I couldn't understand what it was about until I took a look at the picture 3 or 4 times! I don't understand why someone would need to create a FB page-like building afterall...! We see so many small shrines for Ganapathi all along the roadways in India, why something like that couldn't be created?
