The legend behind the origin of goddess Bagalamukhi

The legend behind the origin of goddess Bagalamukhi is as follows.

A demon named Madan undertook austerities and won the boon of vak siddhi, according to which anything he said came about. He abused this siddhi by killing people. Enraged by his mischief, the gods worshipped Bagalamukhi. She stopped the demon's rampage by taking hold of his tongue and stilling his speech. Before she could kill him, however, he asked to be worshipped with her, and she relented, That is why he is depicted with her. She is almost always portrayed in this act, holding a club in one hand, with which she is about to strike her enemy, and with the other hand pulling his tongue. In this myth, by stopping the demon's tongue, she exercises her peculiar power over speech and her power to freeze, stun, or paralyze.


More than any of the other Mahavidyas, Bagalamukhi is associated with magical powers, which are sometimes referred to as siddhis, "accomplishments" or "perfections." Among her epithets in her hymn of a thousand names are She Who Gives The Eight Siddhis, She Who Gives Magical and Mystical powers (riddhis and siddhis), and She Who Gives All Siddhis. The invocation written around the edge of an amulet containing her yantra in the Tantrasara reads: "O Bagalamukhi, please arrest the speech of wicked people, paralyze their faces, fix their tongues and destroy their intellect." At the end of her stotra (hymn) in the Rudrayamala, it is said that those who worship her will be able to make their enemies deaf and dumb, destroy their intelligence, and turn their wealth to poverty.

YOU'RE ONLY LONELY - J. D. Souther

This song is from the album You're only lonly (1979) by J.D. Souther




YOU'RE ONLY LONELY
J. D. Souther

WHEN THE WORLD IS READY TO FALL ON YOUR LITTLE SHOULDERS,
AND WHEN YOU'RE FEELING LONELY AND SMALL,
YOU NEED SOMEBODY THERE TO HOLD YOU.
YOU CAN CALL OUT MY NAME...WHEN YOU'RE ONLY LONELY,
NOW, DON'T YOU EVER BE ASHAMED, YOU'RE ONLY LONELY,

WHEN YOU NEED SOMEBODY AROUND ON THE NIGHTS THAT TRY YOU,
(REMEMBER) I WAS THERE WHEN YOU WERE A QUEEN,
AND I'LL BE THE LAST ONE THERE BESIDE YOU.
SO YOU CAN CALL OUT MY NAME...WHEN YOU'RE ONLY LONELY.
NOW, DON'T YOU EVER BE ASHAMED, YOU'RE ONLY LONELY,

WHEN THE WORLD IS READY TO FALL ON YOUR LITTLE SHOULDERS,
AND WHEN YOU'RE FEELING LONELY AND SMALL,
YOU NEED SOMEBODY THERE TO HOLD YOU.
SO DON'T YOU EVER BE ASHAMED, YOU'RE ONLY LONELY.
AH, YOU CAN CALL OUT MY NAME...WHEN YOU'RE ONLY LONELY,

WHEN YOU'RE ONLY LONELY...
AH, IT'S NO CRIME...DARLING, WE'VE GOT LOTS OF TIME.

AH, THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH YOU...
DARLING, I GET LONELY, TOO.

SO IF YOU NEED ME, ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS CALL ME.
YOU'RE ONLY LONELY

어머나 어머나 이러지 마세요... (Omona...)

A very popular Trot, pronounced as "teuroteu" in Korean (트로트 or 트롯), song by a South Korean singers 장윤정. The first and second lines say “OMG, don't do that, please.” “Women are like reeds”.



어머나 어머나 이러지 마세요.
여자의 마음은 갈대 랍니다.
안돼요 왜이래요 묻지 말아요.
더이상 내게 원하시면 안돼요.
오늘 처음 만난 당신이지만 내 사랑 인걸요.
헤어지면 남이 되어 모른척 하겠지만~
좋아해요 사랑해요 거짓말처럼 당신을 사랑해요~
소설소게 영화소게 멋진 주인공은 아니지만.
괜찮아요 말해봐요 당신 위해서라면 다줄께요~

Lyrics: Ain't No Sunshine

Ain't no sunshine when she's gone.
It's not warm when she's away.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And she's always gone too long anytime she goes away.

Wonder this time where she's gone,
Wonder if she's gone to stay
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away.

And I know, I know - 26

Hey, I ought to leave the young thing alone,
But ain't no sunshine when she's gone, only darkness everyday.
Ain't no sunshine when she's gone,
And this house just ain't no home anytime she goes away.

Anytime she goes away.
Anytime she goes a~way.

와!! 나의 제일 좋아한 계절 또 왔다…

오래기다리다가 마지막으로 내가제일 좋아하는 계절, 봄이 또 왔어요. 힘든 겨울이 지나가지만 여름은 아직 멀어요. 밖에 꽃 만발하는것을 보니 마음이 너무 기뻐요. 이 계절은 우리 대학교 도 공원 처럼 아주 예쁘고 유쾌해저요.

우리대학교가 1 년에 딱한번만 이렇게, 여쁘게 보여요. 사랑하는 사람들이 너무 좋아하는 이 계절을 마음에 안들하는 사람은 없을것 같아요.
