Chapter –74 – Rudra Samhitha/Sati Khanda – 13
Maharishi Narada speaks “
Oh! Bhramavidhe, Oh! Mahaprajja, Oh! Prabho, kindly narrate that happened after
Dhakshaprajapathi returned to his abode.”
Lord Bhrama speaks “Oh!
Narada, Dhakshaprajapathi after returned to his abode immersed in the expansion
of creation, found that the expansion of the creation is not working as the way
all the deities were desired. He returned to me with anxiousness and complained about it further.”
Dhakshaprajapathi speaks
“Oh! Bhramasthatha, Oh! Prajanatha, Oh! Prabho, the expansion of the creation
is not progressing as the way we all have desired. What shall I do? How can I increase the creation? Kindly
advise me on this matter.”
Lord Bhrama speaks “Oh!
Daksha, Oh! Prajapathi, listen to my words carefully, you contemplate upon
that supreme Lord Shiva and undertake the creation. You have to accept Asikni
the daughter of Panchajanasya, as a wedded wife. You will achieve beautiful
daughters like her in the physical relationship/Maithunashrishti with her.”
Lord Bhrama speaks to Narada
“Oh! Mune, Dhakshaprajapathi married Virini who is the daughter of Virana,
and this couple began Maithunashrishti. The illustrious Haryashvas was born to
this couple, they sincerely followed the Vedic path of living like their
father, Haryashvas went to western regions to conduct Tapasya at the command of
their father. They have engaged in intense
Tapasya on the beautiful location at the riverbank of Sindhu confluences with
the river Narayana. The sacred river is the provider of supreme wisdom with a
single touch on its water. The ascetics who were lived and performed Tapasya
had achieved supreme wisdom and all their impurities were disappeared. The sons
of Daksha performed extreme Tapasya on the shores of this beautiful lake. You know all that happened after that, you
went to meet the Haryashvas at the instruction of Lord Vishu to test their
knowledge. You have asked them how could they perform creation without the
knowledge of creatures, and many questions asked were unanswered by them, it
stirred up anxiousness in them, immersed in various thoughts, circumambulated
you, and never returned to the abode of Dhakshaprajapathi. Thus, they have
proceeded further to achieve supreme wisdom. Later, you have conducted various spiritual tours
contemplating upon Lord Shiva, several years have passed, Dhakshaprajapathi
came to know about his sons Haryashvas who abandoned the world and embraced asceticism
at your advice. Dhakshaprajapathi was extremely raged at your judgment on
Haryashva. I have pacified him saying that destiny cannot be rewritten, later
he has thousands of sons from wife Panchajani/Asikni. These thousands of sons
prepared to conduct Tapasya at the command of their father, went to the shores
of Sindhu where Haryashvas conducted Tapasya and engaged in extreme austerities.
These sons of Daksha became sinless at the touch of this sacred water, achieve
the knowledge of supreme Bhramam, and undertook penance for a long period of
time. You have influenced these thousands of sons of Dhaksha to follow the path
of their elder brothers, and you have returned to your abode. Daksha could
witness various inauspicious omens, understood that he has lost his thousands
of sons who have followed the path of their elder brother, could not control
grief, he collapsed. Daksha regained consciousness and in an extreme fury he
cursed you.”
Dhakshaprajapathi lashed at
Narada “Oh! Sage, you have performed Adhamavriththi, you have fooled my sons
with the form of an ascetic, and you have compelled them to choose the
Mokshamarga. You have forced them to become mendicants like you; it was not a
fair deed from you. It has put a hindrance to the expansion of creation; your
wicked deed caused trouble to the Universe without living beings. Oh! Sage,
listen to me carefully, the son who discards his duties and responsibilities
towards parents and embrace asceticism would fall into hell. Every child born
with the Rinas, it is one of the debts owed to their own parents, leaving the
parents uncared and living in recluse will not bring any Moksha. You have been
cruel to me, you have destroyed the glories of our clan, you have inspired my
sons to pursue the supreme Bhramam, and you are an ascetic wandering all over
the world praising the glories of Lord Hari. Oh! Narada, you have brought
immense grief with your wicked deed, therefore I curse you, and you cannot be
stable in a place for a moment, you will keep wandering on your feet. You will
be wandering all over the three worlds.” Thus, Dhakshaprajapathi who was besieged
with the Maya of supreme Lord Shiva cursed Narada in extreme grief.
Lord Bhrama speaks “Oh!
Vathsa, you have graciously accepted the curse of Dhakshaprajapathi. This is
one of the uniqueness of the Sadhus who capable to accept even the curse as a boon,
they take it as a boon to perform welfare to the Universe. You are a
Bhramajjyani, you are sinless, and you have the knowledge of that supreme
Bramham accepted as a boon and began journey all over the world to spread the true concept of ‘Bhakti’/devotion.”
