Guest guest Posted October 24, 2001 Report Share Posted October 24, 2001 Priya Sriman Aravind Raman! Jai Srimannarayana! You have asked about the Hari Hara Putra Concept and its authoritativeness. To be frank in this issue, there is no right evidence in any of the 18 Pura:na:s or in Ithiha:sa, like Sri Ra:ma:yana or Srimad Maha:bha:ratha. Even they people are not trying to show any authority from this vedic literature. They only say that the Kshe:thra Ma:ha:tmayam, the history of the place, says so. That is what we have to respect. The story they mention is a place in Srimath Bha:gavatham, but in a different way. When Mo:himi incornation was taken by The Lord Vishnu, Lord Siva was not present there. Lord Siva heard about the cherismatic beauty of Mo:himi, approached Lord Vishnu and asked Him to show that form again to Him. Lord said that it would be so unbearable to Siva to control himself. Lord Siva said that he would have no problem in controlling himself and wanted to see that at any cost. While this discussion was going on Lord Siva heard some sound of ankle-bells of a Lady, who was moving nearby. Even without taking permission from Vishnu, Siva left the place in search of that Lady and started running after her. She moved so many places here and there and finally, when Siva thought that he got her, just she disappeared and He lost control over his senses then and there was Skalanam(semen dropped). Where ever His Vi:ryam dropped, it turned to Silver. That is the reason, Silver is also called as "roudram". There was no mention at all about any boy born during that time. There was no intercourse like act between Sive & Vishnu even mentally. So, birth of Ayyappa itself is at question, at first instance. In addition to this, none of our fore-fathers know anything about this boy. There is a small sannidhi(temple) in each Vishnu temple in Kerala, called as Sa:stha temple, who is supposed to be the kshe:tra Pa:laka for those places. That sa:stha was not this Ayyappa. So, authoritarians have to think and say something about this god. Keeping all this aside, what we need to appreciate is, that so many youngsters are accepting this, to get into devotion. That part is unquestionable and everybody should appreciate. =chinnajeeyar= Make a great connection at Personals. http://personals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
