From "ANNA WEISS": There comes a time when you wake up... I don't mean from sleep, you're not even asleep, but you wake up from what you have BEEN... You think... is this what Iam... this this hole? You're wandering around like a walking dead... and then CHOOSING LIFE... choosing to live... that is the hardest thing...

From U-MA!: She wanted to attain Shiva... she had to renounce all comforts and begin a rigorous penance in the forests. When her mother heard this she cried out in distress "U - MA!"... Oh no... and from that moment on, the goddess Parvati also became known as UMA.

She set up her hermitage... she calmed her mind and disciplined her senses and began her tapas...
