🌊 The Churning of the Milky Ocean 🌊
Long ago, the gods and demons, though rivals, joined forces for a common goal: to churn the cosmic Milky Ocean and retrieve Amrita, the nectar of immortality. Using Mount Mandara as the churning rod and the great serpent Vasuki as the rope, they pulled tirelessly, creating ripples that echoed across the universe.
The process was far from smooth. From the depths arose treasures—celestial gems, divine beings, and powerful medicines. But also emerged Halahala, a deadly poison so potent it threatened to destroy everything. Only Shiva’s selfless act of drinking the poison saved the world, embodying the balance of effort and sacrifice. Finally, after immense labor and patience, the nectar of immortality surfaced, a reward for perseverance and collaboration.
This timeless tale reminds us that both challenges and treasures arise on the path to our goals. Facing each moment with resilience and unity reveals the true rewards of effort.
