Srinav was lost in Amarsri’s thoughts since yesterday's feast. He was completely mesmerized by her divinity. Srinav felt a connection with her and in his heart knew that he will meet her again.
He was currently in the library looking for a book about Harihareshwari. He wanted to impress her by worshipping her but he didn't know how to. He was trying to find a book related to that but was unable to find one. Little did he know that his own mother disposed of everything related to her in the palace.
"Yaha toh unke baare mai kuch bhi nahi hai. Kisko puchu ab ?" Srinav muttered.
"Mujhse puchlo." Ganesh said appearing in front of him.
"Pratham-pujya Ganesh ? Pranam." Srinav bowed.
"Ayushman bhava !" Ganesh blessed.
"Ganesh ji mujhe Devi Harihareshwari ko prasnn karna hai. Kintu unki aaradhna kaise karu yeh gyath nahi." Srinav said.
"Kyu prasnn karna chahte ho unhe ? Kya koi vardaan chahiye ?" Ganesh asked.
"Nahi bas chahta hu woh mujhse prasnn ho." Srinav said. Ganesh smiled.
"Devi-devtao ko prasnn karne ke liye unki aradhna karni padti. Kintu agar sacche man se pujan karo toh kisi bhi vidhi ka palan karna awashyak nahi." Ganesh said.
"Arthat ?" Srinav asked.
"Devi Harihareshwari ko prasnn karna ek bahut hi kathin karya hai. Kisi ko kuch din lagte hai, kisi ko kuch mahime lagte hai, toh kisi ko varsho lag jaate hai. Aur kuch se toh woh jeevan-bhar prasnn hi nahi hoti." Ganesh said.
"Sabse prasnn hone mai alag-alag samay kyu lagta hai ?" Srinav asked.
"Yeh toh vyakti ki nishtha pe nirbhar karta hai. Jab unhe lagega ki unhe sacche hridaye se bulaya jaa raha hai toh woh awashya aayengi." Ganesh said. Srinav nodded.
Ganesh summoned an idol of Devi Harihareshwari and gave it to Srinav who bowed to it before holding it in his hands.
"Kalyan ho !" Ganesh said and disappeared in thin air.
Srinav took the idol in his room and placed it in his mandir, offerings some flowers and lighting a diya in front of it.
This all was seen by Amarsri from her abode. She sighed in frustration seeing Srinav worshipping her idol. She flicked her hand and the Diya which Srinav lit was extinguished.
"Kshama karna Srinav kintu mai tumhari aradhna swikar nahi kar sakti." Amarsri muttered sadly.
Srinav looked at the diya with confusion and then again lit it but it again extinguished. He repeatedly kept lighting the Diya but it kept extinguishing.
Lastly he took the Diya and placed it in front of Narayan and took another one placing it in front of the Shivling. He then lit both of them.
"Chahe koi bhi madhyam ho, aapki aradhna toh mai kar ke rahunga. Chahe aapke murti ke samne diya jale ya Narayan aur Mahadev ke samne." Srinav said as he closed his eyes and started praying.
"Mai tumhe kaise samjhayu ki mujhse dur rehne mai hi tumhari bhalayi hai." Amarsri whispered sadly.
