YAKSHI

Yakshi are all terms for fictitious female beings that can take on human form and terrify people. However, they are not actually true.

Yakshi is thought to be a class of otherworldly creatures. Yakshi is described in the Puranas as companions of Mahalakshmi, the Goddess of Wealth, and the female form of Yaksha. According to an ancient myth, Yakshis are both the saviours of individual locations and the saviours of temples. For this reason, Yakshis are positioned as a deity next to the goddess in the sub-deity notion in old Kerala goddess temples. Fairy

Some folks assume that the various living things and supernatural entities found in our cosmos, which also includes the earth, include gods, asuras, yakshas, humans, demons, gandharvas, Apsaras, and nagas from the Puranas. Many of these are claimed to resemble humans in terms of appearance yet possess magical abilities and superhuman strength. The ruler of the Yakshas is Ravana's older brother Vaishravana, also known as Kubera. They have great wealth. Nagayakshis are the female names for Nagas. They are also Keralite idols. The male classes of yakshas are also referred to as Gandharvas.

It is believed that everyone who is not human has the capacity to travel to any of the fourteen worlds, including heaven and hell. Only people who have died can enter this place!  Your require assistance from someone if you wish to travel safely.many are familiar with the legend of the Yakshis and the marriage of Shivaparvati.

Mahalakshmi was in charge of making Goddess Parvati ready for her wedding to Lord Shiva in the Himalayas, as well as other tasks. The yakshis, who served as the goddess Lakshmi's attendants, were instructed to go to away places and bring back holy items. The yakshis who travelled to Kerala stayed there fascinated by the area's stunning natural surroundings. They were reminded of the goddess's mandate near to the time of the marriage . They stayed in the goddess shrines nearby, out of concern that if they were late, Goddess Lakshmi would curse them. According to a legend, Yakshi Pratishtha is present in the majority of our temples for this reason.

Some cultures revere and venerate young ladies who have died at the hands of noble men, especially pregnant women, as Yakshis. Temples are also present in various locations. One could argue that those who did not receive justice while they were living are granted it, once they pass away. Yakshis from television shows and movies aren't ghosts with their hair pulled back terrorising us like they did when we were kids. They all have a Goddess Lakshmi counterpart, but not a Goddess Shakti counterpart. It is really lovely.

The reason for giving the yakshis a scary look is that some intelligent priests and temple administrators should have spread the word that there are yakshis in that area and they will catch people and eat them so that the ornaments and valuables kept in the temple are not stolen. Anyway, that's it. Some of us still believe in fairies in this century.
