Guest guest Posted March 23, 2005 Report Share Posted March 23, 2005 Dear respected devotees of the Mother, I read somewhere that Rakshasa Hayagreeva did 'tapaH' on the holy Mother repeating her single bijakshar.And asked for some 'materialistic' boon rather than a befitting boon for his penance. WHY his ignorance cannot get washed away even when he has seen embodiment of the Mother? Lord Vishnu with Mother's blessings/guidance took avathar with the same name(Hayagreeva) and 'killed' rakshas hayagreev. Is this kind of 'over writing' the mis-deeds of hayagreeva. Like now when we see/read about hayagreeva - We always think of the Lord Hayagreeva only, Unless otherwise we specifically say rakshas/demon hayagreeva. What interests me vehemently, is what bad deeds that Rakshas Hayagreeva could have done once he got boon from the mother, by the way, what boon did he got? - even after doing years of penance on the Holy Mother's name/ bijakshar? How those deeds culminated to Mother to give boon at one time to rakshas Hayagreeva, and also to set Lord Vishnu to decimate the same rakshas later on. As I think more and more about this story, it looks so odd, and for me, I so far not yet able to get details. om Shreemathre namaha om. Prasada Reddy.
