AATHREYA - Sacred Events Of Vasantha Ruthu - I
Mind boggling billions of years back , Lord Shiva and Devi Paarvathi were
married in Himalayas. Lord Brahma was the Chief priest. Mahaa Vishnu
played the role of Brother-in-Law and requested Shiva to accept PaarvathI.
Paarvathi's parents Himavaan and Menaka gave away the Bride . Thirty
million Celestials were the Guests of Honor.
Shiva took His young Bride Paarvathi on Sacred Bull , Nandi to His Abode
Kailaash accompanied by Srungi , Bhrungi , Veerabhadra , Parvath , etc.
After reaching kailaash , Shiva went into Thapas and Devi Paarvathi was
attending on Him waiting for Shiva to open His Eyes and look at Her.
Manmattha accomapnied by His consort Rathi Devi , and friends Vasanth,
Madhu and Maadhavi, at the behest of the Celestials, approached Shiva
with all due Respect and Reverence and beseeched Shiva in a tempting
way to open His Eyes and look at Paarvathi .
Shiva opened not His Soorya Sashaanka Eyes but His Third Vahni Eye
and Manmattha was turned into ashes - RUTHU SAMHAARAM .
Shiva felt sorry for what happened and ordained that Manmattha shall live for
ever , not in a physical form, but as a thought , an idea , an emotion , love and
affection in the minds and hearts of all humans . Manmattha will be seen in a
physical form only by Rathi devi and will be born as Pradyumna to SriKrishna
and RukmiNi Devi in 28 th Dwaapara Yugam - PRADYUMNAM .
In course of Time Shiva and Paarvathi became Proud parents of Kumaara
Swami SubrahmaNya Shanmukha - KUMAARA SAMBHAVAM .
