For more information www.centeredyoga.com Arunachala Tia Sinha Once upon a long, long time ago, the two gods, Brahma and Vishnu got into a heated argument. In the Hindu pantheon, gods often behave like mere humans! Brahma argued he was more powerful than Vishnu while Vishnu argued he was more powerful than Brahma. In the absence of a “mirror, mirror on the wall” that could tell them who was the most powerful of them all, Brahma and Vishnu decided to enlist the services of a referee, none other than the powerful Shiva himself. To test their might, Shiva flung a beam of light on earth. He asked the two sparring gods to find the end of the beam. Whoever found the end of this vertical beam of light and returned to Shiva first, would be declared the more powerful of the two. While Vishnu assumed the form of a wild boar and chased the bottom of the beam, burrowing deep within the earth, Brahma flew up on his graceful swan, intent on finding the top of this beam. The race went on for years and years. The beam was so long, the ends just could not be found. Finally, an exhausted Vishnu gave up the search and returned to Shiva, admitting defeat and acknowledging it was Shiva who was the most powerful of them all. Meanwhile, Brahma, flying ever higher, came across a flower. Assuming that the top of the beam of light was near, Brahma rushed back to Shiva and triumphantly declared to Shiva that he had found the top of the beam. This was a lie! Brahma’s lie, incidentally, explains why there is only one great temple in India devoted to Brahma, while temples devoted to Vishnu abound. The infinite beam of light came to be revered as an agni linga. The place where it touched the earth was none other than the glorious mountain, Arunachala. Around this sacred mountain, considered an embodiment of Shiva himself, sprang up the city of Tiruvannamalai in southern India. Tia studies Buddhist philosophy and practice at the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives, Dharamshala and teaches Hatha Yoga to the nuns of Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo’s nunnery. 9
