Question
In the Hindu Puranas, the problem is never with wealth. Wealth is a goddess, Lakshmi, one of the _____________, invoked in the Shri Sukta of the Rig Veda for cows and grain and gold and children. The problem is with our relationship with wealth. In the Puranas, Brahma’s son Indra is always chasing wealth. In contrast, Vishnu attracts wealth and Shiva is _____________ to wealth. The wealth chasers are not worshipped; the wealth-attractors and the wealth-ignorers are _____________ in temples. Vishnu is linked to householders and Shiva to hermits. But then Shiva is made to marry a princess of the mountains, Parvati, who is also the goddess of food, Anna-poorna, thus _____________ to the value of food, if not wealth, in human society. Even the hermit who shuns wealth needs food. Thus, production and distribution of food and wealth are separated, though both are seen as key to society.
