DEAR SRIVAISHNAVAS,

KURESA VIJAYAM 10 - “Shiva Destroying Dhaksha Prajapathi’s Yagnaâ€

The King of Kooram, Swami Koorathazwan was debating with the Saiva’s in Chola King’s court. During that period,

Saiva’s spat :

Dhaksha performed a yaga with out inviting our God Shiva. He also disregarded Shiva by not giving the Havis from the Yaga. Our deity Isa got furious about that incident. In order to destroy all the deities present in that yagna including (Vishnu, Brahma etc..), he created Veerabadra from his third eye and destroyed the yaga.

Hence our Shiva is the supreme deity.

 

Swami Koorathazwan’s retort :

 

“Hey Pandits!! The statement you proclaimed is against the verses of Vedhas & Vaidheeka Sastras. It is clearly stated in the Pramana that Neither Lord Vishnu nor Brahma attended the above said Yaga done by Dhaksha. This being the truth, it is iniquitous to say that they are defeated.

SriVeda Vyasa Baghavan has penned three types of Purana at three stages:

When Tamo guna exceeds, he created six puranas to exert a pull on demons.

There are six other puranas created by him during the period where Rajasa Guna beat up.

Then after realising the true path and in order to dwell in the lotus feet of Sriman Narayana, he crafted six Satvika Puranas.

This is Clearly stated in the Satvika Padma Purana in 235th Adyaya:

Satvika Puranas:

Vaihnavam Naaradheeyam cha thatha Bhagavatham shubam

Gaarudam cha thathaa paadmam vaaraaham shuba dharshane!!

 

· Vishnu Purana· Naradiya Purana· Padma Purana· Garuda Purana· Varaha Purana· Srimad Bhagavata Maha Purana

Rajasa Puranas:

Brahmaandam Brahmavaivartham Markandeyam thathaiva cha

Bhavishyam vaamanam brahmam rajasani nibhodhitha!!

· Brahmanda Purana· Brahmavaivarta· Markandeya Purana· Bhavishya Purana· Vamana Purana· Brahma Purana

Tamasa Puranas :

Matsyam Kowrma thatha laingam saivam skandham thathaivacha

Aagneyam cha shadethani thamasani nibhodhitha!!

· Matsya Purana· Kurma Purana· Linga Purana· Shiva Purana· Skanda Purana· Agni Purana

Satvika Mokshadha proktha rajasa sarvadha ashubha:

Thathaiva thamasa devi nirayaprapthihethava:!!236.21Among these puranas Satvika Puranas lead one to liberation, Rajasa do not cause good and tamasa puranas lead one to hell.

Having said this, not all portions of the Rajasa and Tamasa Puranas are invalid. Wherever they are in accordance with other satvika puranas they are perfectly valid.

 

Satvika Purana called Vishnu Purana clearly states that:

During Dhaksha’s Yagna, only Indra and other devathas were present there.

After the yagna, Daksha gave the Havis to Astadhikbala’s and eschewed Shiva.

 

Shiva got furious over this issue and created Veerabadhra whose is like a lion in tejas. Shiva ordered Veerabadhra to destroy the Yagna of, spite filled Daksha.

Veerabadhra attempted to destroy the yagna. Seeing this, angered Daksha, cursed Shiva that He will not be apposite for any Yagna or Havis.

 

Veerabadhra fought with Dhaksha and chop down. Then Devas led by Brahma came to the spot and woke up Daksha . They also made Daksha to withdarw his curse to shiva and gave the havis.

 

At that time Lord Vishnu appeared and fulfilled the desired of Daksha’s Yagna. This is also stated in Bagavatha Purana.

 

Hence it is against the pramana to tell that VISHNU was present in the yagna and was defeated by Shiva. Thus Swami Koorathazwan refuted Saivas.
