Today I shall talk about Prajapati Pulastya as I promised in my previous blog
Pulatsya referred marriage as trap of Maya(illusion) that is all about materialist realm of the Universe and takes a person away from path of moksha (liberation), So he decides to stay Bramhachari (celibate) and starts Tapasya (penance) in a Tapovan (forest) but destiny had its own plans. Soon-after he starts his tapasya (penance) he realises that this tapovan (forest) is very close to Rishi Kardam's ashram.
Rishikas and Rishi Kanyas (daughters of rishis) would visit tapovan every day to pluck flowers for pooja.
These girls were very enthusiastic and jolly in nature, everyday they would come there and pluck flowers, laugh and giggle, take bath in rivers, play etc.
Pulastya asked them not to disturb him, they were afraid of him but they continued their routine and they did not stop.
Pultsya got very angry one day and he cursed, he cursed that whichever girl would enter in this forest will get pregnant then and there! all girls got badly petrified with it and decided not go there again. hence no girls after that ever entered that forest but.
One day daughter of kardam rishi Havirbho" a very innocent young girl, went to pluck flowers in surroundings of her ashram and while she was there a mad bull run towards her, she gets horrified and starts running and in effort of saving herself she goes and crashes into Pulatsya and realises that she have entered the cursed forest she turns pale and motionless for that instance as she finds herself in Pulastya's arms , Pulatsya gets very angry and screams and pushes her towards ground she then lifts herself up quickly and without looking at him runs in an opposite direction from him She gets petrified with the incident but kept quite about it.
She starts staying alone all the time, refuses to participate in any games or activities etc with her friends. That very incident in forest broke her badly from inside, but her father kardam rishi observes her, could make out that there is something wrong with her, as his joyful girl was all quite now and she was behaving strange.
He then reaches to her and asks her what is wrong with her. she first tries to hide from him but eventually she tells him everything that happened. he then consoles her and decides go to pulatsya and talk to him about all that happened.
He then goes to pulatsya with daughter Havirbho, Havirbho hides herself behind her father, Pulatsya refuses to listen to any argument. In that very moment Havirbho branches turns head up to him and looks directly into his eyes with all her innocence for that instance.
The innocence of her eyes filled Pulatsya with love and guilt in that instance.
that very instance he experiences Bramha gyan (divine knowledge) in her eyes that he was meditating for and finally agrees to get married to her.
And that is how Ravan's grandparents got married.
hope you all liked the story and If you want to know about any particular mythological story feel free to write in comments, I would love to reply them.
hope we hang around and take care.
