Hindu art symbolism and vivaha samskaras

Painting of Rukmini vivaha. Look at the Purohita, he is directing Krishna and Rukmini to look at Rishi Vashishta & Arundhati constellation* in the sky. Krishna and Rukmini are looking at their own reflections above, showing that they are Lakshmi and Vishnu. Agni, understanding that it is Lakshmi Narayana in front of Him, He encircles Krishna and Rukmini instead.

In Hindu marriage rituals, Rishi Vashishta and Arundhati symbolise an ideal married couple. The groom shows the bride the twin stars of Vashishta and Arundhati, in a ceremony called 'Arundhati darshanam'. In some parts of India, Vashishta-Arundhati is replaced by the Dhruva constellation, however Vashishta-Arundhati are invoked around the vivaha homa.

*In western astronomy today, these two stars are known as Mizar and Alcor, from the Arabic words horse and rider, as the Europeans adopted these terms from Arabic astronomy.

Is wanting him to take me away from being wedded to a man I didn't love because I fell in love with him through the stories I've heard too much to ask for? Is it?? Because he did it just because of a letter ~

Maybe our standards are too high because our epics gave us the perfect man to fall in love with ❤️

मत्त: परतरं नान्यत्किञ्चिदस्ति धनञ्जय ।

मयि सर्वमिदं प्रोतं सूत्रे मणिगणा इव ॥ ७ ॥

There is nothing higher than Myself, O Arjun. Everything rests in Me, as beads strung on a thread.

रसोऽहमप्सु कौन्तेय प्रभास्मि शशिसूर्ययो: ।

प्रणव: सर्ववेदेषु शब्द: खे पौरुषं नृषु ॥ ८ ॥

I am the taste in water, O son of Kunti, and the radiance of the sun and the moon. I am the sacred syllable Om in the Vedic mantras; I am the sound in ether, and the ability in humans.

पुण्यो गन्ध: पृथिव्यां च तेजश्चास्मि विभावसौ ।

जीवनं सर्वभूतेषु तपश्चास्मि तपस्विषु ॥ ९ ॥

I am the pure fragrance of the Earth, and the brilliance in fire. I am the life-force in all beings, and the penance of the ascetics.

बीजं मां सर्वभूतानां विद्धि पार्थ सनातनम् ।

बुद्धिर्बुद्धिमतामस्मि तेजस्तेजस्विनामहम् ॥ १० ॥

O Arjun, know that I am the eternal seed of all beings. I am the intellect of the intelligent, and the splendor of the glorious.

~ Bhagvad Gita, Chapter 7, verses 7-10)

Krishna is such a Loverboy. Like. You know what I mean without me needing to say it. He's a wife's man. Rukmini Mata will call him "Swami" and he will reply with "Ji, Swamini?" HE'S THAT CUTE. Idk how Mata survived being away bro I would be pinching his cheeks every hour. Such a Loverboy.
