Bhagwaan Shankar in the wheel of Maayaa<br />

Seeing the wildly gay Shankar following her, Mohini gave a mild smile – the one in<br />

whose smile the fourteen bhrahmaands become enchanted. In her play act her smile, the<br />

Lord of Maayaa Mahaadevji became entangled.<br />

Mohini immediately turned around, her in front and behind the anxious minded running<br />

Mahaadevi – Paarvatiji observed.<br />

At time Mohini closes up, then she loses him, hiding behind veils of growth she proceeds<br />

forth. And to catch her Mahaadevji was running after her!<br />

And then Mohini intentionally got caught by Mahaadevji. And by divine providence, the<br />

breeze scattered Mohini‘s clothes in disarray. And just at that time Mohini who was<br />

caught in Mahaadevji‘s hands gave her mind enchanting smile: in her beauty Mahaadevji<br />

was blinded. And then she escaped from his grip began running away again.<br />

By Mohini‘s mild smile and tender delicate touch, Mahaadevji lost his composure.<br />

Becoming anxious he made attempts to run after her. But running thus he lost his semen.<br />

His excitement was pacified. And he just remained steady there, unmoving. His sexual<br />

excitement ridden, his head kneeled in shame.<br />

Moment later looking up, he saw Bhagwaan Vishnu standing with a mild smile on his<br />

face. Bhagwaan Shankar only bowed to him in his mind.<br />

―Bhagwaan, none of your actions are without a purpose,‖ said Bhagwaan Vishnu. ―Your<br />

dropped semen has been carried by the Wind deity by my command and deposited<br />

through the ear in Sati Anjanaa‘s womb. For the assistance in the incarnation of Raam,<br />

your desire to incarnate has been fulfilled. When we are both the same and one, then who<br />

gets enchanted in whose play act maayaa?‖<br />

―Bhagwaan,‖ said Shankar: ―Salutations to you and your cosmos enchanting form!‖<br />

In conclusion, Bhagwaan‘s Maayaa enchants many a folk. Even so, in this act of<br />

Bhagwaan Shankar it is enchantment by choice – the devotees agree. And to understand<br />

the power of Maayaa, they say:<br />

Bhagwaan forgets about Bhagwaan‘s Maayaa!<br />

Mahaaraaja Dashrath had three wives. Despite that he had no children. And despite all<br />

good charities, penance, worships, pilgrimages, not having fulfilled his wish for children,<br />

he once questioned the Guru of his kingdom Vashishtha:<br />

―Gurudev, half my life has passed away, not hiaving seen the face of my son my mind is<br />

becoming impatient. Pray tell me of any action by which I can have have the birth of a<br />

son in my household.‖<br />

By the command of great sage Vashishtha, a fabulous canopy was erected in the vast<br />

compound of the palace of Ayodhya. Under the leadership of Shrungmuni - proficient in<br />

Rugved, the great yagya for blessing of child was enacted. Many rushis‘ and mendicants‘<br />

chanting of mantras reverberated in the yagya canopy. Kaushalyaa, Sumitra and Kaikai<br />

together with King Dasratha performed the final ritual to the yagya.<br />

The remnants of the rice pudding from the yagya was divided into three parts. One part<br />

each was distributed in the hands of the three queens as the final blessing from the yagya,<br />

while the rushis were sanctifying.<br />
