DEAR SRIVAISHNAVAS,

KURESA VIJAYAM 5 - “THRIPURA SAMHARAâ€

 

THIRIPURA SAMHARA.

SAIVAS ARGUEMENT:---

ONCE THERE LIVED THREE DEMONS NAMED KAMALAKSHA, DHARUKAAKSHA AND VIDYUNMALI. THEY PERFORMED SEVERE PENANCE TOWARDS BRAHMA AND GOT EXTRAORDINARY POWERS DUE TO:

 

1. BRAHMA’S BOON

2. IMMENSE FAITH IN VEDAS

3. THIER WIFES’ CHASTITY AND PURITY AND

4. THE HELP OF SANJEEVI SIDDARASA KOOPA (A WELL WITH NECTOR GIVING IMMORTALITY) CREATED BY DEMON’S VISVAKARMA MAYAN

 

USING THESE STRONG POWERS, THEY CREATED THREE WORLDS[LOGAS]

EACH CONSISTING OF GOLD, SILVER AND IRON RESPECTIVELY.

THE SPECIALITY OF THESE WORLDS ARE THAT, THEY CAN FLY FROM ONE PLACE TO OTHER.

 

THE THREE DEMONS SAT ON THESE WORLDS AND FLEW FROM BHOO LOKA TO DEVA LOKA, HARASSING THE DEMIGODS (DEVAS) IN DEVA LOKA AND HUMANS IN THIS WORLD.THEY CONQUERED ALL THE WORLDS.

INDIRA AND OTHER DEVAS WER PANIVED BY THIS ACT AND SOUGHT THE HELP OF SIVA.SIVA BURNT ALL THE THREE WORLDS AND KILLED THE THREE DEMONS.

HENCE SIVA IS THE SUPREME LORD CLAIMED THE SAIVAS.

 

SWAMI KOORATHZHWAN’S REPLY:

 

RESPONDING TO THE PRAYERS OF INDIRA AND OTHER DEVAS,

SIVA DEMANDED THAT IF HE IS PRAISED WITH THE NAME “PASUPATHIâ€, HE WILL HELP THE DEVAS. THE DEVAS PRAISED SIVA AS REQUESTED.

THEN SIVA, ALONG WITH DEVAS FOUGHT WITH THE DEMONS AND KILLED MILLIONS OF DEMONS AND THREW THEM IN SIDDARASA KOOPA (IMMORTAL WELL).

 

 

AS THE WELL HAS THE NECTOR WHICH GIVES IMMORTALITY, THE DEMONS DID NOT DIE AND EMERGED WITH GREAT POWERS AGAIN LIKE THE PLANTS COMING OUT FROM EARTH.

 

SIVA GOT EXHAUSTED AND PRAYED TO LORD MAHAVISHNU FOR HELP.

 

THE ALMIGHTY AND MOST COMPASSIONATE LORD SRIMAN NARAYANA WHO IS ALWAYS AT THE DOOR STEPS OF HIS DEVOTEE, IMMEDIATELY APPEARED BEFORE SIVA AND ENQUIRED ABOUT SIVA’S DISTRESS.

SIVA EXPLAINED THE INCIDENT AND PRAYED HIM THE WAYS AND MEANS TO WIN THE DEMONS AND DESTROY THRIPURA.

 

LORD VISHNU SHOWERED HIS BLESSINGS ON SIVA.

HE MADE THE HUGE MOUNTAIN “MERU†AS A BOW,

EARTH AS THE CHARIOT,

SUN AND MOON AS THE WHEELS FOR THE CHARIOT,

BRAHMA AS CHARIOT RIDER,

FIXED THE SPEED OF GARUDA AT ARROW AND

POSITIONED HIMSELF AT THE TIP OF THE ARROW.

 

HE THEN TRANSFORMED THE UNIQUE POWERS OF DEVAS ON SIVA.

HE ALSO BLESSED SIVA WITH KAVASA MANTHRA.

HE THEN SWALLOWED ALL THE AMRUTHA (NECTOR) IN THE SIDDHARASA KOOPA (IMMORTAL WELL) AND MADE IT EMPTY.

 

LORD VISHNU THEN TOOK THE FORM OF BUDDHA AND STARTED PREACHING THE DEMONS AGAINST THE VEDAS. BY DOING SO HE GRASPED ALL THE VIRTUE (PUNYA) OF THE DEMONS.

 

IN ORDER TO REMOVE THE CHASTITY OF THE DEMON’S WIFE, THE LORD TRANSFORMED HIMSELF TO A ARASA TREE (BODHI TREE).HE ASKED THE DEMON’S WIFE TO EMBRACE THE TREE TO GET FURTHER GOOD BENIFITS.

THE WIFE OF DEMONS BELIEVED SO AND EBRACED THE TREE. HENCE THEY LOST ALL THEIR PURITIES, CHATITY AND GOOD QUALITIES.

 

THIS, BEING THE RIGHT TIME, LORD SRIMAN NARAYANA URGED SANKARA TO MAKE A FIERCE FIGHT WITH THE DEMONS. WHEN SIVA WAS FIGHTING WITH THE DEMONS, THE ENTIRE WEIGHT RESTED ON ONE SIDE OF THE CHARIOT [EARTH] WHICH FELL DOWN IN TO THE ATHALA LOKA.

LORD VISHNU TOOK THE SHAPE OF OX [RISHAPA] AND LIFTED THE EARTH TO ITS POSITION.

 

DURING THIS FIERCE WAR BETWEEN SIVA AND THE THREE DEMONS DHARUKAAKSHA, KAMALAAKSHA AND VIDYUN MALI, LORD VISHNU WHO HAS POSITIONED HIMSELF IN THE TIP OF THE ARROW OF SIVA’S BOW,

BURNT THE CRUEL DEMONS AND THE TRIPURA (THREE WORLDS).

SIVA CLAIMED THIS AS HIS DEED.

 

WHEN LORD VISHNU, WITH ALL HIS VARIOUS MAYAS MADE SIVA TO FIGHT AND MADE THIS BATTLE A GRAND SUCCESS, HOW COULD ONE CLAIM SIVA AS SUPREME, EXCLAIMED KOORESA.

 

 

 

 

 

 

FURTHER SWAMI EXPLAINED THAT THE ABOVE MENTIONED PRAMANA ARE STATED IN SEVENTH SCANTO OF SRI BAGHAVATHA PURANA,

IN SKANTHA PURANA - SAPTHA SKANTHA (SEVENTH CANTO)

IN HARI VAMSA, NAARATHEEYA AND UTHTHARA KOORMA.

 

MOREOVER IN MAHABHARATA-KARNA PARVA, IT IS STATED

 

“VISHNUR AATMA BHAGAVATHA: BHAVASYA AMITHATHEJASAAâ€

 

AS LORD VISHNU WAS THE ANTARYAMI TO THE BRIGHT LOOKED SIVA, HE WAS ABLE TO FIGHT WITH HIS BOW AND ARROW AND DID THE TRIPURA SAMHARA.

HE STATED ALL THESE PRAMANAS AND REFUTED THE SAIVAS.

 

TO BE CONTINUED………

 

 

ALL THE MISTAKES FIND IN THIS POSTING IS DUE TO ADIYEN’S LACK OF KNOWLEDGE AND ADIYEN REQUEST YOUR PARDON FOR THE SAME.
