These are the highest places in the world. Among them Bhattar calls his own head 'a foul dog's head', the very height of humility.\n\nThe answer is in the question: 'Is this better than those?' No; yet the Mother came and placed her feet there. She comes not because of worth but because of love. It continues the 'children she bore' of the previous verse.","story_title_ta":"\u0b95\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bc0\u0bb4\u0bcd \u0baa\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bcd","story_ta":"\u0b95\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bbf \u0bb5\u0bb4\u0bbf\u0baa\u0bbe\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0bb0\u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0b85\u0b9a\u0bc1\u0bb0\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bc8 \u0bb5\u0bc6\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1 \u0baa\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0b95\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd, \u0baa\u0bcb\u0bb0\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bc7\u0b95\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bbf \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0ba9\u0bc8 \u0b85\u0b9f\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbe\u0bae\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b86\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bca\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bcd. \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b92\u0bb5\u0bcd\u0bb5\u0bca\u0bb0\u0bc1 \u0b85\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bc2\u0bae\u0bbf \u0ba8\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbf\u0baf\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0ba4\u0bc7\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b85\u0b9e\u0bcd\u0b9a\u0bbf \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0b9f\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b93\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bb0\u0bcd.\n\n\u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0b86\u0baf\u0bc1\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb5\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd\u0bb2\u0bc8. \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b86\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bb4\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b85\u0bae\u0bc8\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbe\u0b95\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0b9f\u0bc1\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bca\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd. \u0b86\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0bb5\u0bc7\u0b95\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b95\u0bbe\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bc7\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0baa\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0b95\u0bc0\u0bb4\u0bc7 \u0baa\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0baa\u0bcb\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0ba4\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bb5\u0bb0\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0ba3\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bcd; \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0ba3\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0bb2\u0bcd \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bc8\u0b95\u0bcd \u0b95\u0b9f\u0bbf\u0ba4\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bc1 \u0ba8\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bbe\u0bb3\u0bcd. \u0b85\u0bb5\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b9a\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bae\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0ba3\u0bbf\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0ba4\u0bc1; \u0b89\u0bb2\u0b95\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b85\u0bae\u0bc8\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0baf\u0bbe\u0ba9\u0ba4\u0bc1.\n\n\u0b9a\u0bbf\u0bb5\u0ba9\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0bae\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0bb2\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0ba9\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bbf\u0ba9\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bbe\u0ba4\u0bae\u0bcd \u0baa\u0ba4\u0bbf\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4 \u0b87\u0b9f\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcd \u0b8e\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1 \u0bae\u0bb0\u0baa\u0bc1 \u0baa\u0bcb\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0bc1\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0ba4\u0bc1. \u0baa\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bb0\u0bcd \u0b85\u0ba8\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0baa\u0bcd \u0baa\u0bc6\u0bb0\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bc8\u0baf \u0b87\u0b9f\u0b99\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bb3\u0bcb\u0b9f\u0bc1 \u0ba4\u0ba9\u0bcd \"\u0bae\u0bc1\u0b9f\u0bc8 \u0ba8\u0bbe\u0baf\u0bcd\u0ba4\u0bcd \u0ba4\u0bb2\u0bc8\"\u0baf\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b92\u0baa\u0bcd\u0baa\u0bbf\u0b9f\u0bcd\u0b9f\u0bc1, \u0b85\u0ba9\u0bcd\u0ba9\u0bc8 \u0b85\u0ba4\u0bc8\u0baf\u0bc1\u0bae\u0bcd \u0b8f\u0bb1\u0bcd\u0bb1\u0ba4\u0bc8 \u0bb5\u0bbf\u0baf\u0b95\u0bcd\u0b95\u0bbf\u0bb1\u0bbe\u0bb0\u0bcd.","story_title_en":"Shiva Lies Beneath Kali's Feet","story_en":"From the tradition of Kali worship.

He lay down quietly in the path of her dance. In the force of the dance Kali's foot came down on His chest. Looking down, she saw her husband and stopped, biting her tongue in shame. Her fury cooled, and the world was at peace.\n\nTradition honours Shiva's chest and head as places where the Mother's feet have rested.
