Guest guest Posted February 4, 2007 Report Share Posted February 4, 2007 MURUGA SARANAM 28th January 2007 Spiritual Stories Post #27 " Tapo Bhrashta " Dear Members.. I wont be able to add my coments for few more weeks. But I hope you will continue to enjoy reading the series of spiritual stories. May All Glories be to Lord of Sivan Malai Sivan Malai Muruga Perumanukku Arohara !!! Murugan Thiruvadi Saranam Saranam With Best Regards Meyyappan S **** The Story begins here Tapo Bhrashta (Fallen from the state of tapas) NAKKIRAR WAS DOING tapas on the bank of a tirtha. A leaf fell down from the tree; half the leaf touched the water and the other half touched the ground. Suddenly the water-half became a fish and the land-half became a bird. Each of them was united to the other by the leaf and struggled to go into its own element. Nakkirar was watching it in wonder and suddenly a spirit came down from above and carried him away to a cave where there were already 999 captives, all of whom were tapo bhrashtas. Devotee: " Was Nakkirar a tapo bhrashta? " Bhagavan: " Yes. While engaged in contemplation, why did he fall from contemplation and take to watching the mysterious happening in front of him? Nakkirar composed Tirumurukatruppadai and obtained the release of all the thousand prisoners. " Ends ******** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
