Thats a strange question actually but a very common one-why we dont see Gods?

as per what i know This age is Kalyug(after Dwaparyug), which took place after Shri Krishna left the earth.In this Yug humans will deteriorate in terms of spirituality,conduct, morals etc(and by seeing what is happening it pretty much is),and most importantly get distanced from God.Thats the reason we dont see them.

do u now how to see god? what spiritual level must a person have to see god?

She was married to the demon-king jalandhar. Due to her piety and devotion to Vishnu(narayana), her husband became invincible. Even god Shiva,the destroyer in the Hindu Trinitycould not defeat Jalandhar and fight goes between god shiva and demon jalandhar went for many years, So Shiva(supreme god) requested Vishnu - the preserver in the Trinity. - to find a solution. Vishnu disguised himself as Jalandhar and violated Vrinda. Her chastity destroyed, Jalandhar was killed by Shiva. Vrinda cursed Vishnu to become black in colour and he would be separated from his wife. Thus, he was transformed into the blackshaligram shilasand in his Ramaavatar, his wife Sitawas kidnapped by a demon-king and thus separated from him. Vrinda then burnt herself on her husband's funeral pyre or immolated herself due to the shame. The gods or Vishnu transferred her soul to a plant, henceforth which was called as Tulsi. As per a blessing by Vishnu to marry Vrinda in her next birth, Vishnu in form of Shaligram - married Tulsi on Prabodhini Ekadashi. To commemorate this event, theceremony of tulasi bivah/vivah/marraige ceremony is performed.</

Wasnt tulsi, radha, rukmini also an incarnation of goddess lakshmi ? ? and plz tell me that vishnu doesnt violate anyone !? As both a shiv and vishnu bakht i find it shocking

Yeah humans have become quite intolerable in the 4th yuga. During the satya yuga humans could see the gods the most often as it was a golden age. The Dharma bull, which symbolises morality, stood on all four legs during satya period. Later in the Treta Yuga it would become three, and two in the later Dvapara Yuga. Currently, in the immoral age of Kali, it stands on one leg. its really impossible for anyone being to see god during this yuga, let alone humans

Was Lord Shiva aware of the fact that Sati was actually the Shakti and that He was destined to marry Her one day? If so then why was He trying to avoid this fact esp Sati? Why?

One question from my side...

One question from my side...

which scriptures mention the story of Shiva and Sati/Parvati?

is there any book like the Ramayan which actually has a proper scripture of what happened!?

In Devi purana by Ved Vyas,which has 4500 shlokas, it is mentioned about Goddess Jagadamba, Sati, Parvati, Ganga, Mahakali, 51 Shakti peethas & briefly about Ram, Krishna
