Folklore of Bathukamma mentions that a 'Shivaling' was taken away by a king from Telangana. As a compensating tradition, Bathukamma started. The story revolves around the love towards 'Shivalinga'.  'Shivaling' or 'Jyotirlinga' signifies the Creator in the form of Universal Light, 'Jyoti'. This Eternal Point of Light is worshipped and believed with different names & forms. We all belong to One Universal Light and as One Divine Family... 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam'.  Bathukamma links to the feelings of Oneness and brings everyone together in the form of Devotional Community Celebrations.

 Mythology also mentions another origin of Bathukamma as an effort to invoke Goddess Parvathi. 
Parvathi Devi is also well known for her tapasya and spiritual endeavour to attain Supreme GOD Shiva. By becoming a part of 'Ardhanarishwara' her soul got fulfilment and got elevated to the highest levels. The story conveys the message that we the souls should involve in Dhyana (Meditation) to get connected to the Supreme God Father and should adopt Spiritual Practices in daily life for fulfilment and elevation of the Soul. 

In other context, Bathukamma also relates the worship of Goddess Lakshmi who was believed to be incarnated as a Girl Child to a king of Telangana region. Bathukamma is also a form of feminine felicitation with flowers of various colors. 

Wherever women are in a state of dignity and are being respected & honored with divinity, the society attains overall progress. Womanhood holds a special importance and dignity in the Creation.  Various colors of the flowers used in Bathukamma symbolizes various values which are needed in daily life for harmony and progress.

"I wish I had never met you!" Deepika's voice echoed across the classroom, each word a dagger to my heart. "Excellent! At least we finally agree on something!" I fired back, even as a tear betrayed the storm of emotions within me. With those final, stinging words, Deepika stormed out, leaving a heavy silence in her wake. The classroom felt like a graveyard, and I stood there, rooted to the spot, desperately wishing I could chase after her and demand the truth. Maybe letting her go was the right choice. Perhaps this is meant to be my unfinished love story, a tale of what-ifs and almosts... ✨ No Deepika. This can't be his bike. Not Arjun's. But I couldn't deny what I saw-the familiar brown Royal Enfield, now twisted and crushed. My heart hammered as I circled around, hoping, praying it wasn't true, until my gaze landed on the number plate: TN56 0809. Arjun's bike. Deepika! Stop imagining things! Arjun would be fine! I felt the world shift, the noise around me blurring into a single, deafening hum. Ambulance and police sirens echoed, and a stranger's voice broke through: "Two boys. Spot dead. College students." I clutched my chest, gasping for air as reality slammed into me. "Arjun..." I whispered, barely holding myself together. Tears stung my face as I sank beside the wreck. "No, Please, No!" My voice cracked as the weight of regret settled in, suffocating me. ✨ Ex-Crush: More than just a crush, but a little less than love. ✨ Arjun and Deepika were hopelessly in love-only they never realized it. Will they find their way to each other, or will their love story remain forever unfinished? ✨ Join Arjun and Deepika on a journey back to those dreamy college days-days where every moment felt eternal, love was unspoken yet ever present, where friendship bloomed like wildflowers, offering a sanctuary from the harsh winds of reality. Come, wander with them through the corridors of college days, where the echoes of laughter still linger.
