I Was a Priest in the City-State Era

Chapter 554 The Trinity of Goddess Kali

As an emperor who eliminated all the royal families and nobles, Roy did not hide his disgust for the royal families and nobles.

Inside Vritra's palace.

The banquet to welcome Roy had not yet ended, and Roy made a request to Princess Yueyi.

"Dear Princess Yueyi, as your future husband, I hope you can take me to visit your father's city."

Yueyi looked at Vritra with an inquiring look, and Vritra nodded immediately.

After getting Vritra's consent, Yueyi took Roy out of the palace.

Although Roy, the protagonist, was gone, the banquet in the palace continued.

Because Vritra needed to use the banquet to entertain the royal family and nobles to deepen their feelings, so that these powerful royal families and nobles could help deal with the Vedic people.

Vritra City.

Roy and Yueyi walked on the street with a group of guards.

Seeing that many civilians were so poor that they had no clothes to cover their bodies, but no one was skinny and hungry, Roy couldn't help but sigh that the Indus Plain was too rich.

No wonder in another world, the Indus Plain can feed 230 million people with 800,000 square kilometers of land.

The Indus Plain has a lot of food production, and rice and cotton are also exported.

Because it is located in the subtropics, the fruit resources are very rich, and it is known as the "fruit basket" of the East.

Bananas, oranges, mangoes, guavas and various melons are produced in abundance in the plains and depressions, and peaches, grapes, persimmons, etc. are produced in abundance in the mountainous plateaus.

The neighboring Indian region uses 3 million square kilometers of land to feed 1.4 billion people.

Yueyi observed Roy's reaction and asked Roy.

"Dear Emperor! I heard that the Athenian Empire you rule is the most powerful and richest country in the West. How does the life of the Athenians compare to that of our people?"

"The wealth of the Athenians is incomparable to the people of the Kingdom of Vritra."

Roy said with a smile.

"Because of the richness of the Indus Plain, the people of the Kingdom of Vritra will not starve to death even if they are beggars. But in our Athenian Empire, not only will no one starve to death, but no one will become a beggar."

"No one becomes a beggar..."

Yueyi said in disbelief.

"Is it really possible for such a country to exist?"

"You can go to the Athenian Empire in person to see if what I said is true or false. The secret of the lack of beggars in the Athenian Empire is that I provide jobs for all the people of the Athenian Empire."

"You provide jobs for all the people of the Athenian Empire - I heard that the Athenian Empire has a population of tens of millions. Excluding the elderly, children and women, your wealth is enough to provide jobs for millions of people?"

"Everything in the Athenian Empire - including land, rivers, mountains, forests, and mineral resources are all my wealth. Since I have all the wealth, I can certainly provide jobs for millions of people. Your father, King Vritra, cannot provide jobs for all his people, which means that he only owns all the wealth of the Kingdom of Vritra in name, and in fact he has to share it with the surrounding royal families and nobles. to share these wealth. Since your father, King Vritra, does not control all the wealth of the Kingdom of Vritra, he certainly cannot provide jobs for all the people of the Kingdom of Vritra. "

"Do ordinary people in the Athenian Empire work hard? Are they paid much?"

"Ordinary Athenians only need to work five days out of seven and only need to work eight hours a day. The salary they get every month can support at least three people. In other words, an Athenian family can support seven people in three generations as long as the couple works at the same time. "

"In your Athenian Empire, women can also work?"

"The Athenian Empire is also a country protected by the goddess of the earth. Women can not only work, but also have the same inheritance rights as their brothers."

Unconsciously, Roy and Yueyi came to the Kali Temple in Vritra City.

Knowing that the Athenian Empire is also a country protected by the goddess of the earth, Yueyi invited Roy.

"Dear Emperor, are you willing to enter the Kali Temple and accept the blessing of the goddess Kali whom I serve?"

"Of course I am willing! Goddess Kali is also the incarnation of the ancient goddess of the earth. Her identity alone is enough to make me feel good about her."

Roy and Yueyi entered the Kali Temple, which was huge in scale and decorated with magnificent gold and jade. They saw a female warrior holding a sword enshrined on the throne deep in the temple.

The statue of Goddess Kali was decorated with many gold ornaments. Her face and figure were very similar to those of Shauska in the Hurrit region, but she was a little more wild, brutal and terrifying.

This was also a natural result.

The tribes that worshipped the goddess of the earth migrated to the Indus Plain. In order to survive in this land, they must have fought thousands of years of war with the indigenous Dravidians.

In order to meet the needs of their own tribe for war, the goddess of the earth gradually evolved into a killing goddess who brought death and destruction to the enemy.

But her essence is still the goddess of the earth.

So in Indian mythology, Goddess Kali is the black mother of the earth and the conqueror of time.

She is the trinity of the goddess of creation, the mother of protection and destruction, birth and death, and the giver of life to the world.

The worship of goddess Kali can be traced back to non-Aryans and is very different from orthodox Hinduism.

It is very clear that goddess Kali is not a deity of the Aryans.

The Aryans worshiped the god of thunder and the sun god, which were essentially worships of the sky god - the natural phenomena in the sky.

Goddess Kali is the mother goddess of the earth, and has nothing to do with the sky god worshiped by the Aryans.

But Goddess Kali is not a native Indian deity.

Because the worship of gods by the Dravidians belongs to animal worship.

The elephant god Ganesha, the bull god Nandi, the great bird Garuda -

These native Indian gods are all animal gods, and they are all male gods.

Even the most representative native god Shiva is now the beast master related to the worship of wild beasts.

Neither an Aryan god nor an animal god worshipped by the native Dravidians of India, this is the identity of Goddess Kali.

In the Indian mythology of another world, Goddess Kali is one of the incarnations of Parvati, Shiva's wife.

This is the result of the decline of the earth goddess being absorbed by Shiva's wife.

Shiva is an ascetic who practices in the snow mountains, and Shiva's wife Parvati is the goddess of the snow mountains.

From this, it can be seen that Parvati was created as Shiva's incarnation because of Shiva's asceticism in the snow mountains, and she does not have any power and divine power.

In order to enhance Parvati's power and prestige, many goddesses in India were absorbed by Parvati and became her incarnations, and the power and prestige of these goddesses became Parvati's power and prestige.

Not only Parvati, but even Shiva also absorbed many gods to become Shiva, one of the three gods, and had the same supreme status as Vishnu, the sun god of the Aryans.

In this era, even Shiva, the beast lord Rudra, has not yet risen to become the three-phase god Shiva a thousand years later, and Rudra's wife Parvati may not have been born yet.

Even if Parvati has been born, she is only the weakest god.

Even Parvati's husband Rudra may not be the opponent of Goddess Kali now, and Parvati has not absorbed the power of Goddess Kali.
