[Indian Mythology] Self-cultivation of male gods

170

Mahadeva is so great and powerful. He is powerful and has great yoga power. Standing in front of these Asuras, he is like an adult facing a baby, a mountain facing a mound, a sea facing a stream, and a strong wind facing a cloud. ... All of this is so simple, the end of this matter is in sight, both the Asura present and the mortals know what the end will be waiting for them - those Asuras couldn't help trembling.

They begged for forgiveness.

If the powerful being in front of them can forgive them and take their lives, then they will definitely go back and become a good person, and never dare to do those wrong things again!

However, whether their confession is from the heart, who can know?

Mahadeva is an innocent God, but it does not mean that he is not wise.His innocence comes from identifying with the good qualities in others, but when the good qualities don't exist and she's being lied to, his anger is bound to run high.

No one can resist Rudra's wrath.

Vamana beckoned to those merchants and brought them into his protection range, while Mahadeva, who was transformed into Rudra, had already raised his trident!

This trident is so dangerous, it symbolizes three terrifying powers, and when it is lifted up, it will emit three terrifying rays of light, completely enveloping those Asuras, and those Asuras who want to escape Then he stepped easily, chased them, and drove them before the merchant, ordering them to go and beg forgiveness.

However, at this time the businessman said: "O great gods, we cannot forgive them!

"What are we? We innocent and powerless people, how can we have the right to forgive them!

"We're still alive after all!

"But we live, so what about those who died?

"Those who died, are they willing to die? Are they willing to forgive? Only they can say the words of forgiveness, God, we cannot!

"We are so lucky to be rescued by you. We have no threat of death. We can stand here and talk to you, but... those who were killed by these demons, what should they do? They have wives and children. , Those who have parents have parents, are their parents, wives and children willing to forgive these demons?

"Therefore, God! We are not qualified to mention forgiveness, please don't punish us with such words!"

These businessmen, who are clever and intelligent, moved Mahadeva's heart when they spoke.

Vamana rolled his eyes and asked, "Young traveler, a wise businessman, may I ask, who does your caravan belong to?"

"Brilliant child, our caravan belongs to Uncle Kanjiha!" Another businessman, who was holding a sackcloth in his arms, raised his hand and said triumphantly, "Kanjiha Uncle is so smart, and he is so focused on worrying about the world!

"He asked us to sell cloth and satin. When he came back, he said that he was going on a pilgrimage, so he left for two days. On the third day, he brought back this—" The businessman lifted the linen, The hard stone was exposed, "He said that this was something found in the holy place of Vishnu, so I must take it back, he asked me to give it to the guardians in the holy places of Shakti, and he himself Then I returned to the Holy Land of Vishnu... So, I held this thing from the Holy Land along the way, and I firmly believe that it is sacred!"

The businessman spoke with such piety, and so did what he did.

Both Vamana and Mahadeva recognized the stone as one of Sati's fragments.

Mahadeva was so excited, he stretched out his hand tremblingly and touched the fragment lightly, and it immediately became brilliant and turned into a finger!

"My God, what is this!" The businessman was startled, and immediately wanted to throw away the fingers he was holding, but he couldn't!

It wasn't until Mahadeva took the finger from his palm that he got rid of the panic.He asked: "What is this, god, please tell me what is this?!"

"This is a finger, the finger of a beautiful girl..." Mahadeva sighed, "My wife's finger..."

Vamana walked over, floated lightly, and hugged Mahadeva's neck when he was still blaming himself: "Calm down...Calm down, Mahadeva, this is Sati's finger, do you remember When you separated the petals little by little and gathered them together little by little? Mahadeva, don’t be sad, your pain has spread to the whole world.”

But it's not just pain.

Mahadeva looked at him, the finger in his hand had lost its temperature, but he only felt it was scorching hot.

"Maha Deva... Sati doesn't want you to do this... Now that we found her here, let's build a holy place here... Mahadeva, those Asuras, you want them to die immediately Or do you want them to be turned into stone statues guarding the Holy Land?"

The problem of Vamana is very clear, and the Asuras are even more afraid.

How could they not be afraid?

No one, no asura, no devas, could possibly like either of those two proposals - death or turning into a statue.

So Na Asura shouted: "Why don't you turn the merchant into a stone statue!

"Aren't they evil? They want to take your wife's fingers too! Mighty One! You must be Shiva of the Trinity, and if you are, we are all your followers, how can you Can you be so cruel to us?" These Asuras also knew how to get what they wanted, so they immediately became obedient and obedient, but they still asked Mahadeva to let them go.

They said, "Mahadeva!

"The merchants took your wife's body, what does it have to do with us? We want to find her body for you! That's why we intercept the merchants! I swear!"

The merchants blushed with anger when they heard these words.

They pointed at these asuras who had already torn their faces and asked angrily: "What did you say when you wanted this fragment? You want your leader, the man named Taraka, to come and destroy this fragment!

"We really didn't dare to touch it with our unclean hands because it was taken from the holy land of Narayan, so we wrapped it in cloth, hugged it in our arms, and put it on our head!

"How could we be like you people who disrespect God!"

The businessman was so angry that it was almost as if he had been set on fire.

And Mahadeva, he lowered his eyes.

Only then did Vamana say: "If you are all right, then take an oath!"

"Swear?" The two sides looked at each other, not knowing what kind of oath to make.

"You all swear as you say, and if what you say is not true, then you will be turned into stone statues immediately!" said Vamana, "but you can rest assured that after many years, the stone statues you turned into will be destroyed." Destroyed by a man called Rama so you can re-enter samsara."

The little child's words shocked them even more.

Of course the asuras are not willing to make an oath, but the merchants have already cut their palms and started chanting mantras - if they do not turn into stone statues after doing this, then they will immediately gain the trust and love of Mahadeva, and Asura... the Asura present will never escape the fate of death!

"Gamble!" Since he never minded lies, how could Asura be afraid of the oath?

Thinking of this, the Asuras immediately imitated humans and cut their palms to swear.

They spoke loudly, chanted oaths loudly, and loudly exposed their falsehood to the supreme god in this world... Then, they immediately turned into stone statues.

With a sigh, Mahadeva set up a holy place here, and promised to protect the merchants here forever.

As for the 50 yuan pieces, there are still nine pieces left.

On the road again, Mahadeva became much quieter.He was silent all the way, but the arms holding Vamana tightened even more.

Vamana didn't speak, he lay quietly in Mahadeva's arms, and gently let his breath soothe Mahadeva's soul.

They went all the way, and just after walking a short distance, they saw a fierce tiger chasing a small deer.

Only then did Vamana break the silence: "Maha Deva! Save that deer, Mahadeva!"

"But the deer is saved, then..."

"I know you wonder where the tigers are going to find food, Mahadeva, but if you save the fawn, the tigers' food will naturally be found." Vamana pushed him, "Go, go, Mahadeva !"

There was no other way, Mahadeva had no choice but to stop the tiger, but at this moment, the tiger turned around and bit Vamana!

"Vamana!" Mahadeva yelled in fright. As soon as he lifted his foot, he came up to the tiger. As soon as the tiger turned around, it jumped off the cliff with Vamana in its mouth!

The golden deer was frightened immediately.

It was trembling, and its beautiful big eyes were full of tears, and it was crying, and its beautiful ears hung down its cheeks.

Mahadeva didn't intend to appreciate the beauty of the deer anymore.

He lifted his feet and jumped off the cliff, just to chase the tiger that had taken Vamana away, but when he came to the bottom of the cliff, he found no sign of the tiger, and there was no trace of Vamana, except for a spot left on the ground. There is nothing else but a small bracelet.

"Vamana!" Mahadeva yelled, wanting to know where the tiger had taken his ramana.

But...he walked around the mountain for a day and asked all the creatures in the mountain, but no one knew where the tiger and Vamana were, not even the trees, the ants, or the bees.

Mahadeva was so anxious that he could only open the third eye on his forehead to look for Vamana——

However, among the three realms, Vamana was nowhere to be seen!

If there is no shadow of Vamana, then the only thing that can happen is... Vamana was brought into the illusion—and if the tiger can use the illusion, then he must not be an ordinary tiger!

Mahadeva decided to use their bond to pursue Vamana.

Compared with other people, his bond with Vamana—his bond with Narayan—is eternal and indelible, so he chooses to use it to help himself.
