[Indian Mythology] Self-cultivation of male gods

180

The territory of the underground realm is not large enough, and among the three realms, there is not enough space for Vamana's raised lotus foot to fall down.

Under one of his feet is the lotus flower of Lakshmi's avatar, and his other foot has nowhere to fall and is being held in mid-air.

He holds a pitcher in one hand and a rosary in the other.

On his forehead is the mark of the Lord of Illusion, and in his eyes is the compassion of the splendid Three Realms.

King Bethleigh immediately rushed to his feet, raised his hands high, and said excitedly to Vamana's lotus feet: "Lord!

"When your lotus feet have nowhere to fall, please look at me, your faithful disciple Beli is here, the son of Vairocana is here, and the grandson of Pharaharata is here!

"Lord! Here I am, here I am reaching out to You with my hands, I am approaching You with my heart, and this moment of incomparable love burns my heart like Agni!

"Please put your lotus feet on my forehead!

"I sincerely beg you, put your lotus feet on my brow, let me feel your love and mercy with the mani jewels on my forehead! Have mercy on my piety, and use your pair of hands that support the universe Let the lotus feet warm my soul!

"At this moment, love is like the waves of the sea of ​​milk rolling, with the sweetness of milk, but it washes away my soul like mountains and seas!

"Lord!

"Just use my forehead as a foothold! Please fulfill me!"

King Bethlehem's language was as gentle and sweet as butter, and his piety flowed from his eyes, and the piety in those eyes immediately turned into flowers, surrounding him.

Then, Vamana gently lowered his delicate little feet like lotus flowers.

It is so gentle, soft and delicate, the moment it fell on the forehead of King Bethleigh, King Bethleigh immediately took off all the lawlessness and secrets.When he ascended, the brilliance was infinite, and the divinity in all the devas was not as noble and dazzling as the divinity he exuded at this moment.

At the same time, Vamana immediately chose to bless the king of Bethleigh.

His blessings are so easy, people feel that it may be very easy to obtain such blessings, but the blessings received by the king of Bethlehem are glorious and glorious that no one can get.

Vamana said: "Your devotion and your kindness, Bethleigh, everything about you makes you unique, for which I will grant you eternal life for as long as this world exists!"

Vamana's blessing stunned everyone.

There are not a few Asuras who follow Burleigh. Where have they seen such a blessing?All Asuras know that no one can get the blessing of "eternal life", but King Bethleigh got this blessing easily-could it be that this blessing is to be exchanged for the land?

However, just when they were doubting, Vamana said again: "Because you have caught my footprints with your forehead, Bethle, and this underworld will make you king, and I give you this underworld, The wealth and land here, the people and the souls belong to you, Bethlehem, you get the kingship here and become the ruler here, the true God here.”

As soon as Vamana's words fell, the decorations and light of the underground world immediately appeared on King Bethleigh's body.

Vamana raised his lotus feet, let go of the king of Bethleigh, let him come before him, and stretched out his hand to bless him: "And at the same time, I will give you another blessing, Bethlene. , my beloved believer, you will get my promise, please tell me the blessing you want."

The words of Vamana filled Bethleigh even more.

The Asuras who surrounded him were even more puzzled.

All living beings in the three realms, as long as they have studied the Vedas, they all know that Vishnu represents goodness, joy, and light among the gods of the three phases, is Sattva, and is the guardian of the Devas, and Mahadeva is the dark one. , It’s Dharma, it’s the essence of Asuras, therefore, all Asuras believe in Mahadeva from the beginning and are not willing to dedicate their devotion to Narayan, but now, Narayan has blessed King Asura with eternal life , and gave him the essence of becoming a god, and even allowed him to choose a broader well-being.

There are many blessings that the asuras hope that King Bethleigh can ask for.

They hope to obtain the Three Realms.

They wish they could kill mortals at will.

They want to be able to drive the devas at will.

They wished for too many things...they wanted too much, and the desire was so intense that even if they didn't say the blessings they wanted, it made the desire in their hearts rise to the essence. They can't go hovering over their heads.

However, the king of Bethlehem did not desire these.

He said: "Lord, I beg you, my father was killed by Indra, so I beg you, please let him not continue to be the emperor of heaven!"

Vamana shook his head with a smile: "Beli, I can only complete half of this blessing for you, because in the last kalpa, Indra used all his power to push the world, so that he can get the blessing of the Emperor of Heaven." The position, how many years he should be in office, I can't change it. But I know that it is difficult for him to hold the position of Emperor of Heaven, and I also know that in the next calamity when he has to abdicate, you will take on the heavy responsibility of Emperor of Heaven .

"Therefore, you must ask another prayer, Burleigh."

Vamana's words did not make Burleigh angry.Burleigh was a straightforward man, and he said at once: "Then I beg you to stay with me, Lord!

"I won't step out of the underworld at will, but I won't be able to see you until I step out of the underworld, which makes me toss and turn, just thinking that I can't see your figure, just thinking that I can't touch it with my hands Your lotus feet, just thinking that I can't lift my head to see your beautiful red lotus eyes makes my heart ache!

"Lord, have mercy on me, and dwell in my house!

"I will prepare everything for Vigongza, as long as you are happy, I will be happy!"

Bethley's request must be fulfilled. After all, Vamana has stated that any blessing will be accepted. However, what if Vamana leaves this life?

What happens when he returns to the highest heaven, when he returns to Vishnu?

The other asuras thought that the blessings that King Bethleigh asked for were very unreasonable. The king did not ask for what they wanted, but instead asked a three-faced god who was unwilling to bless other asuras to go underground Living in the world, this is really not so happy!

And there are also Asuras who feel that neither Brahma nor Mahadeva has ever blessed anyone with eternal life, but Vishnu has done it. It is the very powerful one, so they also secretly calculated, hoping to obtain the supreme blessing of eternal life.

However, how could such a blessing be easily obtained?Although the Asuras seem to be very easy for King Bethleigh, who was King Bethleigh in his previous life, how did he use the merits accumulated in several lives, and his incomparable piety to get such a blessing? ?

Nobody knew, nobody looked, they just saw what they wanted to see.

But King Bethleigh, he was extremely happy.

He lifted the Vamana with his steps himself, singing along the way, expressing his joy.

"My Lord came to my house, my Lord is as bright as a lotus flower! My Lord has many names, and as long as I recite it, I can feel joy in my heart, be free from samsara, and wake up from Maya!

"My Lord will live with me, and my devotion to him will bring me great happiness! My Lord is the source of the universe. As long as I meditate on him, I will have no more complaints, be free from samsara, and wake up from Maya!"

King Bethlehem's singing is so beautiful, his feet are like stepping on cheese, and when these feet step on the fire of the underground world, they can also bring him coolness and smoothness.

His heart is so sweet that even his beard wears his joy.

Soon, the king of Bethleigh carried Vamana to his palace in the underground realm. He chose the best room for Vamana and asked all the servants and slaves to serve him. He even brought his own wife with him. Go with the children to wash the feet of Vamana!As for those Asuras around?How could Burleigh care about them?All they want is to get eternal life, or to get wealth and beautiful women, but he doesn't care about these!

Burleigh, what he wants is for all his loved ones to be happy!

And just when the female slave entered Vamana's room to help him take a bath, the lotus flower under his feet instantly shone brightly.

Both Burleigh and his wife were taken aback. They looked at each other, not knowing why.

Vamana finally smiled shyly: "She is Lakshmi."

After he finished speaking, the brilliance gradually left his feet. In the suspended place, it began to elongate, rotate, and emit an incomparable fragrance... After a short while, the lotus flower that was originally at Vamana's feet Just incarnated as the goddess Lakshmi, but she is younger, she looks only about ten years old.

This ten-year-old goddess Lakshmi is wearing a bright red sari, and instead of wearing a golden crown on her head, she is just an ordinary girl's hair accessory, which looks extremely cute.

"Swami!" She bowed to Vamana first, then turned to look at the Beli King and his wife, and said, "I can help him wash, no slaves need to do it!" She said, shaking her head , "Also, they don't know what kind of strength he likes, but I do!"

King Bethleigh couldn't help feeling even more joyful in his heart, folded his hands together, and looked at Goddess Lakshmi who was digging turmeric in a clay pot.

"Goddess, that's enough..." Vamana couldn't help shrinking back a little while looking at the handful of turmeric.

And Goddess Lakshmi also looked at the big lump of turmeric in her hand, smiled, and removed more than half of it: "Swami, I don't know how much turmeric and milk I should use for you after you get smaller." Already!"

King Burleigh's queen couldn't help but also laughed, and she said to King Burleigh: "Swami, if you are getting smaller, I guess I don't know how much turmeric and milk I should use for you!"

Vamana and King Bethleigh looked at each other and smiled. The thoughts and actions of the goddesses are always more playful, but this is their cuteness.So they never feel unhappy because of this, but they will love them more because of it.

But Goddess Lakshmi, after rubbing turmeric on Vamana's body, when she went back to scoop the milk, she complained: "If it's in the sea of ​​milk, I'll just push you down!"
