Guest guest Posted November 12, 2007 Report Share Posted November 12, 2007 ASHTAAVAKRA learnt all Vedas even while he was in his mother's womb , as he comes from a family of Vedic Scholars . Unfortunately he was born deformed and hence named Ashtaavakra. As a boy of 12 years he goes to King Janaka's court to rescue his father from a defeat in Vedic Sabha , succeds in winning Vedic Discussion besting all Scholars and teaches Janaka Raajarshi about Aathma Jnaanam , Vairaagya Bhaavana and Moksha saadhanam. How proud his father must have felt at having such a great son. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
