Goddesses

The number of goddesses in India perhaps outnumber male gods (there is no way of verifying this as there is no authentic database of gods/goddesses & other celestial beings). For every ailment, every type of difficulty, there is a dedicated goddess.

Aren't the rivers like Ganga & Yamuna revered as goddesses? Yet, look at their fate. the devotees show little respect for the goddesses. Sometimes I feel that they are polluted or dirtied with a vengeance.

Rivers, like women, hold the ability to give life yet, look how we treat them. Irony, isn't it?
