Scene 3 Narrator: With the power of the boon granted by Siva, Bhasmasura became invincible. All the worlds trembled at his anger. Even mighty Indra, fearing for his life, deserted the kingdom of heaven and went into hiding. Eager to complete his victory, Bhasmasura searched all the worlds for Vishnu, to reduce him to ashes. Failingin this, he began to round up and kill all the Vishnu bhaktulu that he could find, hoping that Vishu would show up to defend them and then fall to his mighty hand. One day, he was in his court dealing with the latest batch of vishnubhaktulu Music: Segments from "Maadhavaa mounamaa" from the movie Satyanarayana Mahatyam భకడ : ాయన ాయన భ: ఎకడా ాయణడ ?! ఇంతమం భకలను భసంజి ా ఆ ాయణజపలా క ! అనుభంచం!

Scene 5 Narrator: As Siva runs to escape the power of his own boon, Parvati entreats Sreemannaaraayana to save her consort. Vishnu immediately comes to the rescue. Disoriented by the Vishnumaaya, Bhasmasura loses sight of Siva who runs to safety; Vishnu then transforms himself into Mohini, the divine temptress. The ravishingly beautiful Mohini then approaches the enraged Bhasmasura, still searching for Siva; At the sight of this celestial kanya, Bhasmasura forgets all about Siva and accosts her. భ: ఎవర వ ? గంధర కనా ? అపరసా ? : ెవా , ను భ: ఓ , భవన , ను చూి మనసు పరవంచుచున : నను చూిన అందర ఇే ెబర ! భ : అలా అనక ే ! ను మామల పరషడను ాను ! అసుర చకవ , భాసురడను . ానుగహమ ంన వరపతడను . నను వంచు , కరణం ాజసు : ను నను ంన మ పరషసం దుకతను భ: అే ఇక కృి ఫంన. నను ంన ాడ మలాల ద క ొరకడ : అలాా ! ను అరవలగ కళలల ఆేన దూి భ: ెప ే ! ఏ కళలౖ క టా లాను : అలాా ! అే సా టం ేయగలా ? భ: ఆ ! సుమ మలన మనసు టకళ ఎనుకనుటల ఆసరలదు ! ామ ే ! Music: Instrumental from the movie "Maya Bazaar" Mohini and Bhasmasura dance, with Bhasmasura following each sequence Mohini performs; Dance ends when Mohini places her hand on her head, and Bhasmasura follows, reducing himself to ashes.

  • Chapter 7, Verses 13 to 16,Taitreya Upanishad, Class 36,Baghawat Geeta, Class
    Bhagawat Geeta, Class 105: Chapter 7, Verses 13 to 16 Shloka # 13: त्िरिभर्गुणमयैर्भावैरेिभः सर्विमदं जगत्। मोिहतं नािभजानाित मामेभ्यः परमव्ययम्।।7.13।। Due to three (kinds of) objects, consisting of (prakriti’s) constituents, this whole world is deluded; it fails to cognize Me, the immutable (Reality) beyond them. Continuing his teaching of the Gita, Swami Paramarthananda said, with the 12th shloka of chapter 7, Sri Krishna has completed talking about Ishwaraswarupam. In his talks, Sri Krishna points out that the entire universe is God himself consisting of the Spirit (consciousness) that is of a higher nature and Matter, consisting of an inferior nature. Wherever there is change it is Apara Prakriti (AP). So, the whole world, the body, mind and thought all are AP. The Para Prakriti (PP) is the consciousness alone, which is changeless and formless. Now, Sri Krishna discussed another topic, raising the question as to why do humans suffer when everything in the universe is divine? Why does one feel incomplete, insecure and not at ease? This is a universal problem. Different people solve it in different ways. Some acquire material things, some seek position, some seek power, name, family etc. Nothing, however, seems to work. This universal problem is called Samasra. Sri Krishna is diagnosing the problem in shloka # 13 and provides its resolution in shloka # 14. The problem is this: Since the Para prakriti (PP) is formless, colorless and not accessible for our perception, we generally miss it. Hence it is also called “Aprameya” meaning not accessible to perception.

Yeats’ Indian upon God Suchismita Sarkar Assistant Professor Dept. of English Dinabandhu Mahavidyalaya West Bengal, India Abstract: W.B. Yeats’s one of the most critically acclaimed poems, Indian upon God, bears testimony to the fact that he was immensely influenced by Hindu religious notions and Indian philosophy. Though there are a number of poems in Indian context written by him, which reveal Yeats’s obsession with Indian culture and philosophy, but Indian upon God is possibly the only poem contemplating on the concept of God according to Hindu Philosophy. Yeats’s interest in Indian philosophy resulted from his interaction with the Indian scholar and preacher, Mohini Chatterji. His affinity for Indian culture and philosophy is evident in the aforementioned poem where he expresses his notion of Indian God .Despite all his endeavours to encapsulate the essence of Hindu religion Yeats often struggles to establish his ideas because his concept seems to be imbued with his own religious notions of Christianity. Therefore the Indian’s God delineated by him in this poem emerges as a religious amalgamation, or a God out of the mixture of Hindu and Christian religion.

India in Yeats’s Early Imagination: Mohini Chatterjee and Kālidāsa Ashim Dutta his essay examines Yeats’s initiatory interest in Indian lore and litera- ture, and their importance to his creative imagination. Rather than functioning as an amateurish poetic experimentation leading to a full- Ter understanding of India in his late years, or to his “real” pursuits of Irish and modernist subjects, Yeats’s early preoccupation with India remains fun- damental to the syncretic spirituality of his thought, blending into the larger literary, cultural, and philosophical enterprises of his life. India, for Yeats, was brought to life for the first time by the Dublin visit of the Bengali Theosophist and Vedāntist Mohini Chatterjee in the mid-1880s. While Chatterjee was a key philosophical influence on Indian matters early in his career, Yeats at that time seems to have also been an enthusiastic reader of the works of the fifth- century Indian poet-playwright Kālidāsa.

  • The Lord's Warrior Incarnation - Part 1
    The Lord's Warrior Incarnation - Part 1 Date: 2011-05-05 Author: Narahari Krishna das Hare Krishna Prabhujis and Matajis, Please accept my dandavat pranams. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and Srila Gurudeva. On the auspicious occasion of Akshaya Trithiya, Parasurama Jayanthi (appearance of Lord Parasurama) let us meditate on His glories. The Bhagavata purana is replete with glorification of Lord Parasurama. The following Bhagavatam shloka (2.7.22) explains the purpose of this glorious incarnation. kshatram kshayaaya vidhinopabhrtam mahaatmaa brahma dhrug ujjhita-patham narakaarti lipsu uddhanty asaau avanikantakam ugra - viiryas trih sapta kritva urudhaara parashvadhena "When the ruling administrators, who are known as the kshatriyas, turned astray from the path of the Absolute Truth, being desirous to suffer in hell, the Lord, in His incarnation as the sage Parasurama, uprooted those unwanted kings, who appeared as the thorns of the earth. Thus He thrice seven times uprooted the kshatriyas with His keenly sharpened chopper." Srila Prabhupada explains in the purport as follows the purpose of this great incarnation: "Every state and its administrators, regardless of the nature of the administration monarchy or democracy, oligarchy or dictatorship or autocracy have the prime responsibility to lead the citizens toward God realization. This is essential for all human beings, and it is the duty of the father, spiritual master, and ultimately the state to take up the responsibility of leading the citizens towards this end.
