  • Chapter X Samudra Mathana the Delineation of the Vedavyasavatara
    Chapter X Samudra mathana The delineation of the Vedavyasavatara is the theme of the tenth chapter. However, as a preliminary to it, the samudramathana episode is narrated. The purpose of Vyasavatara was to remove ignorance and confusion caused by the curse of Gautama in respect of the knowledge enshrined in the Vedas, Pancharatra, Itihasapurana, and other sacred pieces of literature. For such an ignorance and confusion Kali was considerably responsible. He arose at the time of the samudramathana along with poison. Not only the personality of Kali was Kali but the ignorance and the confusion caused by him were also Kali. Destroying these was meant to destroy Kali. This was the purpose of Vyasavatara. Therefore, in order to point out that such a Kali had arisen at the time of samudramathana, that episode is narrated in the tenth chapter before the narration of Vyasavatara. The details of samudramathana are well-known. Therefore, only such items that are especially mentioned in Tatparyanirnaya and that have a deep religious significance will be stated here. At the close of the 28th Dvapara Yuga, Chaturmukha Brahma, Shiva, Indra, and other deities approached Lord Vishnu present at Shvetadvipa at the center of Kshirasamudra. They offered prayers to Him and informed Him that due to Durvasa's curse, Indra lost his power and glory and was defeated by the demons. Therefore, they had come to Him seeking protection. As per the instructions of Lord Vishnu, the deities entered into an agreement with the demons through Bali Chakravarthi and attempted to bring the Mandara mountain for samudramathana.

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.

In fact there are numerous genuine texts from the Indian tradition that contain data on this subject: the problem is that such texts are often incorrectly or inaccurately quoted by some authors to support theories that are opposite to the teachings explicitly presented in those same original texts.

  • The Historical Event of Aravan Festival (With Special Reference to Vanniyars)
    Vol. 3 No. 2 October 2015 ISSN: 2321 – 788X THE HISTORICAL EVENT OF ARAVAN FESTIVAL (WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO VANNIYARS) M. Vijayalakshmi Ph.D. Research Scholar (Part -Time), Department of History, Government Arts College [Men], Krishnagiri – 635 001 Abstract Fair and Festivals of the particular district, town and village usually express their entire life style. People from all walks of life are longing to celebrate their fair and festivals. The Hindus, Christians, Muslims and other religious sects also mingled with their own fair and festivals. The Vanniyars also very much involed and observed their fair and festivals in a grand manner. The annual festivities of the Vanniyars were celebrated in a befitting manner. They worshiped Draupathi head of the Vanniya gods and goddesses. Also, in dramatic plays, the king was always taken by a Kshatriya, who is generally a Vanniya. Keywords: Vanniyars, Kshatriya, Draupathi, Aravan, Kuttandavar, Sudras, Kauravas, Pandavas Mahabharata War Kuvvakkam is known for its festival of Aravan or Kuttandavar which is one of the most popular feasts celebrated by the Vanniyars and the Sudras in the whole district. Aravan was the son of Arjuna, one of the five Pandava brothers. Local tradition says that, when the Great War which was described in the ‘Mahabharata’ was about to end, the Kauravas, the opponents of the Pandavas, sacrificed a white elephant for their success. The Pandavas were in despair of being able to find any such uncommon object, until Arjuna suggested that they should offer his son, Aravan. Aravan agreed to yield his life for the good cause, and eventually the Pandavas were victorious.
