[Indian Mythology] Self-cultivation of male gods

180 five

Indra himself persuaded King Xun Xing, and asked him to listen to his persuasion and go to heaven to enjoy it. Because Xun Xing King had already gained youth, he was persuaded by Indra and immediately abandoned the two wives. Take the sky car and go to the heaven.

Sure enough, for him, the heavens were really wonderful.

There are really too many good places in the heavenly world.

There are beautiful celestial maidens here, and the beautifully dancing Gandharvas and celestial maidens are dancing in the air, as if the rainbow and the sunset glow were stirred by the Maluta, bringing white clouds and cooking smoke, and rolling out the waves of the sea.

These dances are so beautiful.

King Xunxing had never seen such a beautiful dance before. He was fascinated by these, and he didn't want to leave anymore, so he joined in and danced along with it.

And among these Gandharvas was his grandfather, King Honghu.

King Honghu became Gandharva, and played and danced with Guangyan Goddess every day. They lived together, in the heaven, in the Gandharva realm, in the heaven of the demigods, they made clothes from clouds, and they They took off the sunset glow to adorn their hair, they held the rainbow as a Chad, and they used the water drops from the clouds to hang around their necks as a necklace... This kind of life is really wonderful, and their happiness makes King Xun Xing very envious .

King Xun Xing walked over and saluted his grandfather.

However, King Hong Hu stepped back.

"Grandfather!" King Xun Xing clasped his hands together and was about to go to King Hong Hu to touch his feet.

But King Hong Hu avoided it again: "No, don't salute me like this, King Xun Xing."

"But you are my grandfather!" said the Swift King.

"No, no, when I was in the world, I was your grandfather, but now I am the king of Gandharva, King Xunxing, we are not from the same world... I am Gandharva, I am half God, my lover is the celestial girl Ulivashi, therefore, I have nothing to do with you, King Xun Xing." King Honghu said, "In this world, your elders are the only neighbor kings."

King Youlin, the son of King Honghu, the father of King Xunxing, a king who chose to practice hard work so that his son could be worthy of the Brahman woman shortly after his reign.

Where is he now, no one can tell.

After King Xun Xing learned what King Hong Hu said, he fell into deep thought.

His father had been missing for a long time, and he couldn't find him even if he wanted to find him, but Indra ordered people to entertain him, the heroic Lord of the Earth, in the heaven, which made him temporarily give up looking for his father. Instead, he stayed in the heaven.

However, Indra brought his brothers and friends, came to the world, came to the country passed by King Xunxing to Bulu, and walked into the palace.

They enjoyed the offerings of mortals along the way, and thus came to the palace.

When the guards guarding the palace saw these gods coming, they immediately gave way to let them in, so they came to Vamana when no one expected them.

Vamana was lifting his little foot to let Lakshmi put the anklet on him.

But at this moment, Indra broke in, bringing Agni and others with him.

"How could you barge in like this!" Lakshmi stared angrily at these devas, "You are so rude, are you going to be cursed?!"

"Goddess." Vamana held her hand and comforted her softly, "Don't get angry, dear, Indra must have encountered difficulties."

Vamana's words made Indra very grateful.

Immediately he knelt down at Vamana's feet and begged, "O Bhagavan, please help me!

"I really can't fight against Taraka, and you once said that when all the fragments of Sati are found, she will be reincarnated, but now... why doesn't Mahadeva go to find Sati's fragments!"

Indra cried, his heart almost collapsed.

Vamana lifted him up and said, "Indra, now that I am your younger brother and you are my elder brother, how can you show such great courtesy to me?

Besides, your question is not selfish, but you are asking me for the sake of all devas, and for this reason, I will answer your question. "

As he spoke, he asked Lakshmi to bring a plate of pearls to Indra.

Indra did not understand what this meant.

And Vamana told him: "You go to Vishrabha, give these pearls to his wife, let her crush them when eating, mix them with rice, and eat them together, so that she can get A son is gone.

"And you will get the help of this son."

"But what has this to do with Dharaka?" asked Indra.

"You will find out when you go." Vamana advised him to leave, but Agni stayed behind instead.

Indra already knew that this brother was the incarnation of Narayan, so he didn't dare to delay, and he really went to the powerful man Vishragva - this powerful man belonged to Prasidiya. Half of the incarnation, he is the father of Rakshasa, and all the Rakshasa in this world were born of him, and Indra does not know what kind of person Vishrava is, as the half incarnation of Prasitiya. .

After all, Vishrava doesn't often appear in public.

And he didn't understand why he wanted to meet the father of Rakshasa.

But since Vamana let him go, there must be a reason.

How did Indra know that after he left, Agni asked Vamana: "My lord god, please tell me, why on earth did you ask Indra, the emperor of heaven, to find a Rakshasa?

"You must not really want him to go to the sage, so do you just want Indra to leave? But he left, why did you keep me?"

Agni's questions displayed his intelligence, but also his arrogance.

Vamana lowered his eyes slightly and said, "Agni, you are a flame, you are a glutton, you are a devourer, and you are a cleanser. Therefore, I keep you, and I keep you It is to let you be more careful when enjoying the offerings, those polluted offerings can't even be tasted by you, what should we do about this, Agni?"

Agni shook his head.

How could he know how to deal with such a thing?

He himself is the flame that purifies everything in this world, he is so radiant, and as a devourer, he will not be afraid of any uncleanness.

He is not afraid of uncleanness, so he will not be too picky about the sacrifices.

But now Luo Yantian's incarnation said that he was going to get a terrible sacrifice, how to solve this, he really didn't know.

And Vamana said: "Agni, this requires you to explore."

"But why me?" Agni asked.

"Because you are a flame, Agni. As a flame, your greatest ability is to devour, and when you devour, you clean everything. When you can't clean everything... Agni, of course you need Find a helper, and who is this helper?" Vamana asked him.

Of course Agni didn't know, he just shook his head.

Goddess Lakshmi sighed, "Agni, why don't you find the answer yourself when you don't know it?

"What's more, the fact that Indra is going to find Shiva Rava must also be related to Taraka, so you go, Agni, you go!"

Goddess Lakshmi shook her head and drove the gods out of the room.

Now, only the goddess and Vamana were left in the room.

And at this time, the goddess will tell Vamana about the child she saw in her dream.

That child looked so cute, she sculpted him out of gold and silver, and placed it in front of Vamana——she only realized when she put the statue in front of Vamana, that the child's appearance was not the same as that of Vamana. Mona turned out to be very similar!

"Swami! Then who is he?" exclaimed the Goddess. "Could it be you?"

When Vamana saw the child, he immediately knew who he was, and of course he would answer the goddess with a smile: "Of course not, goddess, he is not me."

He picked up the child's statue and stroked it gently: "Goddess, look, how cute he looks, and he is wearing a golden crown and wearing a prince's costume... All these make me happy, Goddess, who is he?" Can you really not think of it?"

Goddess Lakshmi looked at the statue, then at Vamana, and asked suspiciously: "But... If I were to make a bold guess, I would think that he is Mani, but Mani is a girl, Swami !"

Vamana shook his head: "That's not true, dear, Mani is not a girl. I call her Mani because she is a treasure, not because she is a real girl. She is not yet fully developed. The original person, in the near future, she will come to the world, and after birth, she is no longer a girl, but a complete original person.

"What is a native?

"Original people are the most fundamental and essential living beings.

"Maha Deva was originally the original person, but he split the original essence, that is, his Shakti, and became a state where the feminine and the masculine were separated from each other. Therefore, after losing the Shakti, he needs to have the feminine as the human body. This is for mediation, and Shakti does not need mediation when she has no form, but once she has a form, then she must also balance her strength.

"Ma'am, this child has been like this since he was born. He may look like a boy, but it doesn't mean he doesn't have the power of a woman. When his balance is not lost, he can become another guardian, and What he guards is the world."

When Lakshmi heard this, he was immediately excited.

All the realms in this universe are guarded by Na Luoyan, and to make this protection eternal, Na Luoyan's eternal work is needed... However, if there is one person to share Na Luoyan's work Woolen cloth?

She didn't know if other people would be happy, but her happiness couldn't be described in words.

So, she put away the statue and prepared to put it in Mani's temple after Mani was born.

However, she thought about what Mani had told her, and she became very worried: "Swami, but after I met Mani, he was looking for a cure for his mother's illness... Swami, the mother, is Me... or... you?"
