Sadie dog was not allowed to go celebrate the Shiva at Auntie Debbies house.
As she sits at home she is thinking that, the community has purred so hard
for so many of late.


Now, we are all purring for Sammy to return to Uncle Dan's house where he
belongs. We will all continue purring until Uncle Dan tells us Sammy is
home
safely.

Wascal and Bear port in to sit with Sadie dog. They join her in
sitting Shiva.
Bear would like to play with the nice new doggie but Wascal has told
him to sit
and be quiet and he listens to his friend.

Isn't Shiva a HIndu god or goddess?

In what I have been told is "mainstream" Hinduism, Shiva is one of the
three chief deities. Brahma is the creator, Vishnu the preserver and
Shiva the destroyer, with no (or very little) perjorative connotation.
There is at least one Hindu tradition/belief that holds Shiva the most
important God. In early traditions, Shiva had the name Rudra and was
the God of the hunt and weather.

The Hebrew term which is used for the mourning period in Judaism is
not related to the Sanskrit word as the two languages are not
related.

In this instance it is the Hebrew word for "seven" and pronounced
(more or less) "shivah". It denotes the seven days of mourning.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize what Shiva was.

I didn't have a clue until Debbie mentioned it when her Mother died. I went
and looked up, with Dan's help, on the net. Just wanted to try and do
something to show we were thinking of her.

I have learned more new things in the past couple of years just by being on
these two groups.
