Namaste,

Sri Adi Shankara in his 'Kamakshi Stotram' calls Kamakshi as क्षोणी_भृत्_तनयेति Kssonnii_Bhrt_Tanayeti meaning 'the "Earth Born Daughter" (Devi Sita) and Who is the Voice behind the Shrutis (Upanishads)'.

If Sita is Kamakshi Amman, Sri Rama then should really be the amsa of 'Kameshwara' -- a form of Shiva, is it not? (For Kamakshi's husband is Kameshwara).

Has any work been done in this regard, that is, to find if there is any link between Sri Ram and Shiva?

It might interest some to know that one Mr. PVR Narasimha Rao, astrologer and spiritualist writes in his Yahoo group 'Vedic-wisdom' that Sri Rama is Vishnu tattwa + Shiva tattwa (and that Sri Krishna is Vishnu tattwa + Uma tattwa). Pl. see the posting http://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/v.../messages/9305.

What do members feel about this? Any more insights can be provided regarding this?

Thank you.
