Thread: Do Vishnu & Lakshmi have children?

  1. Question Do Vishnu & Lakshmi have children?

    Shiva & Parvati have 2 sons (ganesh & Skanda) and I think in Bengal there is a tradition that Lakshmi & Sarasvati are their daughters.
    But I never heard about Vishnu & Lakshmii having a child...

    I do believe vishnu and laskhmi have kids.
    I believe we are their "little lights."

    What do I know though ---- nothing.

    But what I mean are children like Shiva & Parvati have children.
    In mythology Shiva is a rather wild god, and so is Parvati who has forms such as Durga and Kali.
    In contrast, Vishnu and Lakshmi are king and queen, they do not live on cremation grounds or in the himalayas.
    Nevertheless - Shiva & Parvati have children, Vishnu & Lakshmi have none.
    This is strange and I would like to know why this is so.

    Namaste,

    Kandarpa, i.e. kAmadev is the son of Shri VishNu and Lakshmi. In the Shri KrushNa LIlA of DvApar Yug he was KrushNa and RukmiNi's son Pradyumna.

    Now, out of the Chaturvyuha - vAsudev saNkarshaN pradyumna aniruddha, He is pradyumna. vAsudev = krushNa , saNkarshaN = balrAm. Aniruddha participated in dvApar lIlA as KrushNa's grandson, son of Pradyumna.

    The Chaturvyuha (chatur means four), are the four forms of VishNu each holding shankha - conch, chakra - discus, gadA - mace, padma - Lotus in various permutations (left upper hand , right lower hand etc.) This particular sequence belongs to vAsudev-krushNa.

    This is all found in the BhAgvat.

    That being said, each and every living entity is the child of Shri VishNu and Lakshmi.

    Om Namo Bhagavate VAsudevAya
