Krishna & Paarijaata apaharana #sculpture #story #Thread

This beautiful #sculpture depicts Indra Dev chasing Shri Krishna for stealing parijatha tree branch from Indralok

Krishna has 4hands with Shankha,Chakra,Mace&Lotus holding Satyabhama tightly,mounted on Garuda. Garuda has a beautifully carved Parijata tree trunk in left hand& a weapon in his right hand, attacking Indra.
Other side is Indra,riding on Airavata.Indra can be seen attacking Krishna with his Vajrayutham.Airavata is charging towards Garuda.Wife of Indra can be seen in pillion seat.Just look at the Detailing of Garuda & Airavat sculptures.

So what led Krishna to steal parijatha tree👇
Narada Rishi once returning from Indralok collected few Parijatha flowers&reached Dwaraka.There he met Bhagwan Krishna&gave the heavenly flowers to him.Narada explained the greatness of Parijatha flowers & also said that these flowers must be given to the most loved ones.
Despite knowing Satyabhama’s anger,Krishna gave it to Rukmani Devi.Narada Rishi then went to palace of Satyabhama. He narrated whole incident that had happened.Satyabhama turned furious on hearing that Krishna gave Parijatha to Rukmini.Then Satyabhama shows her anger to Krishna.
To console Satyabhama,Krishna promises her that he will bring the Parijhata tree here.She was very happy &decided to accompany Krishna to Indraloka.They asked for the Parijata tree.Arrogant Indra refused to give https://t.co/lZLoxRrNht Krishna plucked a branch from Parijata tree.
Krishna & Satyabama got on Garuda’s back &started from there.Indra cursed that Parijata tree would never bear fruits,it will only bear flowers.Indra along with Sachi Devi chased Krishna & was ready to fight with him.They fought but Indra was defeated.Indra realised his mistake.
Krishna brought Parijatha branch &planted it in garden of Satyabhama as per her wishes.
Satyabhama went to Rukmini& boasted about Parijatha tree& how Krishna had fought with Indra.Tried to tell that Krishna loves her so dearly that he offered her Parijata tree rather itself.
Though Parijata tree was in Satyabhama’s garden,Krishna planted in such a way that it its flowers falls in Rukmini’s garden.This flower is so pure. This is the only flower even though gathered from the ground & can be offered to Bhagwan.
Two different trees are considered as Parijata -
one is Coral Jasmine (in tamil known as Pavala Malli) & another is Baobob Tree in Uttar Pradesh

Story 14- it is about how Ukkirapandian shattered the crown of Indra Dev using Valai( curved ring type bangle)

இந்திரன் முடிமேல் வளையெறிந்த படலம்


Due to the wrath of Indra Dev there was no rain in the kingdoms.There was a severe drought & people suffered a lot. Not only Pandya kingdom,but also Chera,Chola kingdoms were also facing famine.All 3 Rajas - Chera,Chola & Pandya raja decided to seek the advice of Agasthiya Rishi.

They travelled to pothigai malai to meet him.They explained the present situation on their kingdoms due to failure of monsoon.Agathisya Rishi analyzed &told them that due to planetary positions there will be no rains for another 12
https://t.co/3XzBe9GuBs he advised to meet Indra

They asked Agasthiya Rishi on how they can go to Indralok. Agasthiya Rishi advised them to take up -Somavara Vratham to get blessings of Bhagwan Shiva that will help them reach Indralok.Rishi shared on how one should perform this vrat.3 Rajas thanked Agasthiya Rishi for guidance.

They went back to their kingdoms & observed several Somavara Vrata.Later it reaped with benefits, they were able to travel to indralok.Knowing their intentions, Indra arranged 3 seats at a lower level than his throne in the court.He showed then seats & asked them to be seated.

How can we use language supervision to learn better visual representations for robotics?

Introducing Voltron: Language-Driven Representation Learning for Robotics!

Paper: https://t.co/gIsRPtSjKz
Models: https://t.co/NOB3cpATYG
Evaluation: https://t.co/aOzQu95J8z

🧵👇(1 / 12)


Videos of humans performing everyday tasks (Something-Something-v2, Ego4D) offer a rich and diverse resource for learning representations for robotic manipulation.

Yet, an underused part of these datasets are the rich, natural language annotations accompanying each video. (2/12)

The Voltron framework offers a simple way to use language supervision to shape representation learning, building off of prior work in representations for robotics like MVP (
https://t.co/Pb0mk9hb4i) and R3M (https://t.co/o2Fkc3fP0e).

The secret is *balance* (3/12)

Starting with a masked autoencoder over frames from these video clips, make a choice:

1) Condition on language and improve our ability to reconstruct the scene.

2) Generate language given the visual representation and improve our ability to describe what's happening. (4/12)

By trading off *conditioning* and *generation* we show that we can learn 1) better representations than prior methods, and 2) explicitly shape the balance of low and high-level features captured.

Why is the ability to shape this balance important? (5/12)
