    The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa SALYA PARVA translated by Kesari Mohan Ganguli In parentheses Publications Sanskrit Series Cambridge, Ontario 2002 Salya Parva Section I Om! Having bowed down unto Narayana and Nara, the most exalted of male beings, and the goddess Saraswati, must the word Jaya be uttered. Janamejaya said, “After Karna had thus been slain in battle by Savyasachin, what did the small (unslaughtered) remnant of the Kauravas do, O regenerate one? Beholding the army of the Pandavas swelling with might and energy, what behaviour did the Kuru prince Suyodhana adopt towards the Pandavas, thinking it suitable to the hour? I desire to hear all this. Tell me, O foremost of regenerate ones, I am never satiated with listening to the grand feats of my ancestors.” Vaisampayana said, “After the fall of Karna, O king, Dhritarashtra’s son Suyodhana was plunged deep into an ocean of grief and saw despair on every side. Indulging in incessant lamentations, saying, ‘Alas, oh Karna! Alas, oh Karna!’ he proceeded with great difficulty to his camp, accompanied by the unslaughtered remnant of the kings on his side. Thinking of the slaughter of the Suta’s son, he could not obtain peace of mind, though comforted by those kings with excellent reasons inculcated by the scriptures. Regarding destiny and necessity to be all- powerful, the Kuru king firmly resolved on battle. Having duly made Salya the generalissimo of his forces, that bull among kings, O monarch, proceeded for battle, accompanied by that unslaughtered remnant of his forces. Then, O chief of Bharata’s race, a terrible battle took place between the troops of the Kurus and those of the Pandavas, resembling that between the gods and the Asuras.

  • Kali, Untamed Goddess Power and Unleashed Sexuality: A
    Journal of Asian Research Vol. 1, No. 1, 2017 www.scholink.org/ojs/index.php/jar Kali, Untamed Goddess Power and Unleashed Sexuality: A Study of the ‘Kalika Purana’ of Bengal Saumitra Chakravarty1* 1 Post-Graduate Studies in English, National College, Bangalore, India * Saumitra Chakravarty, E-mail: [email protected] Abstract This paper attempts to analyse the paradox inherent in the myth of Kali, both in her iconic delineation and the rituals associated with her worship as depicted in the twelfth century Kalika Purana. The black goddess Kali breaks conventional stereotypes of feminine beauty and sexuality in Hindu goddess mythology. She is the dominant sexual partner straddling the prone Siva and the wild warrior goddess drinking demon blood. She is originally depicted as a symbol of uncontrolled fury emerging from the fair, beautiful goddess Ambika in the battle with the demons in older goddess texts. Thereafter she gains independent existence both as the dark, mysterious and sexually demanding version of the more benign and auspicious Parvati and the Primordial Goddess Power pre-dating the Hindu trinity of male gods, the Universal Mother Force which embraces both good and evil, gods and demons in the Kalika Purana. Unlike other goddess texts which emphasize Kali’s role in the battle against the demons, the Kalika Purana’s focus is on her sexuality and her darkly sensual beauty. Equally it is on the heterodoxical rituals associated with her worship involving blood and flesh offerings, wine and the use of sexual intercourse as opposed to Vedic rituals. Keywords kali, female, sexuality, primordial, goddess, paradox 1.

Title ID: 4173075 ISBN-13: 978-1482548501 ISBN-10: 148254850X published by Jagannatha Vallabha Vedic Research Center phone: +91 94373 00906 E-mail: [email protected] Website: www.jagannathavallabha.com © 2011 PAVAN Correspondence address: PAVAN House Siddha Mahavira patana, Puri 752002 Orissa Chapter 10: Vibhuti yoga The Yoga of powers The word vibhuti contains many meanings, such as "powers", "opulences", "glories", "magic". Every living being has some of such "magic powers" - a special ability, or strength, or beauty - but not everyone has the same powers, or a power to an absolute degree. Among the materially embodied beings, such powers are always conditioned by circumstances and exhausted when they are used. Through the correct practice of yoga, a sadhaka can develop special vibhutis up to the level of siddhi ("perfection"), usually listed as being able to become extremely small (anima siddhi), extremely large (mahima siddhi), extremely light (laghima siddhi), reconfiguring the patterns of material atoms (vasitva siddhi), materializing things by attracting atoms from other places (prapti siddhi), controlling the minds of others (isitva siddhi), assuming any shape or form (kamavasayita siddhi), and manifesting all kinds of wonders (prakamya siddhi). Another of such powers consists in entering and controlling the body of another, living or dead (parakaya pravesa). Also, the knowledge of genuine yoga enables the serious sadhaka to control the material elements (such as fire, water, air etc), control the weather (call or dispel storms and lightning, bring or withhold rain, etc), travel in different dimensions and planets without any vehicle, call the dead back into their old body (usually temporarily), and so on.

That is the plan of the Gods as per the spiritual teachers. Sometimes, human life is disturbed and is in a state of confusion. The more disturbed it is, there will be frustration. Now we are facing this situation in the form of a bad economy, jobless situations, mental distress, misunderstanding in the families and alike. The Shiva-Vishnu temple management wanted to do some spiritual Yagna for world peace and prosperity. The priests were consulted and they suggested a Shanti Yagna program of 41 days starting from Vijaya Dasami day i.e., October 15th till Nov 24th 2002. The Yagna is for 1 hour every day from 7 PM to 8 PM for this 41 day period (except on Tu e s d a y, Nov 19th when it will be held from 8PM to 9PM due to a lunar eclipse occurring that day). Everyone is invited to participate and involve in this Yagna and be benefited by the grace of the Lord of Shiva-Vishnu temple and the presiding deities of the mantras, which the priests would be chanting.

  • SHIVA RATRI the HARBINGER of GOLDEN DAWN.P65
    SHIVA RATRI THE HARBINGER OF GOLDEN DAWN Shivaratri is the most important festival for the entire humanity because it signifies the incarnation of incorporeal God Shiva for re-establishing heaven on earth, On Shivaratri devout people in India ob- serve fast which is symbolic of the purification of body and soul. People also keep awake the whole night, and this signifies the vigil against looting by dacoits who have looted human soul of its innate qualities of peace, purity, power, truth, love, happiness and bliss. People visit Shiva temples where they pour milk and water over the Shivlinga, the oval stone representing incorporeal God, Shiva. This offer- ing is poured into a vessel suspended above the linga on which the fluid falls drop by drop. This symbolizes the deep contemplation on Godly versions, one by one, by His children. Through this con- templation the souls not only get clarity on points of spiritual knowledge, but also the souls get purified. Such purification is very important for ensuring one’s presence in the Golden Age which God re-estab- lishes during the Auspicious Confluence Age that starts with the incarnation of God Shiva and lasts until the establishment of the Golden Age, whereby starting a new cycle of the ‘Eternal World Drama’. Some people consume potions of Bhang, an intoxicating herb, and this practice signifies the spiritual intoxication of human souls during the Confluence Age. It is paradoxical that those who practice these rituals are usually unaware of the spiritual significance stated above, and hence are deprived of the full reward, i.e.
