Guest guest Posted May 27, 2007 Report Share Posted May 27, 2007 From V.Krishnaraj, M.D; F.R.C.P With regards to 11 Rudras born of Brahma, Here is a link. http://bhagavadgitausa.com/creation_and_dissolution.htm This is an extensive article. Here are some extracts. Brahma and the body of evidence CREATION PART THREE Brahma in the first flush of creation created mind-born sages by name Sanaka, Sanandana, Sanâtana and Sanatkumâra and (Rbhu) and asked them to proliferate. (Sanaka, Sanatana and Sanatkumara were triplets (born simultaneously!), devoid of three types of miseries, according to Linga Purana 20.85-87.) Those sages, named as Urdhvaretâs* (he whose vital fluid ascends facilitating the Bramacharin to attain complete mastery over his generative and recreational impulses), refused to comply, and began worshipping Lord Vâsudeva. Thus disappointed, insulted, and angry, Brahma tried hard to contain his anger, but His anger broke forth as a red-colored boy from his forehead between the eyebrows. He was named Rudra, who cried, demanded, and received control of heart, senses, vital air, ether, air, fire, water, earth, sun, moon, and penance as places of his residence. Rudra means “Red and flashing One.” (Rudra = [Ru = to cry] + [dru = to move] = to cry and move.) When an infant is born it cries and moves indicating life and breath and the need for food. The glabella-born Lord Rudra was half male and half female, the former developed into eleven Vyuhas (manifestations). Rudra received many adulatory names and many adoring wives: eleven in all, collectively known as Rudranis. Vayu Purana (Chapter 27) lists only eight such manifestations (Astamurti) of Rudra. Glabella = Trikuuti = bone of the forehead or protuberance. Bhagavatam: Rudra and his eleven names, and eleven Rudranis, first the male names and later the names of his wives: (Bhagavatam, third Canto, Chapter 12) Manyu, Manu, Mahinasa, Mahân, Siva, Rtadhwaja, Ugrareta, Bhava, Kâla, Vâmadeva, Dhrtavrata. The wives are Dhi, Vrrti, Usana, Uma, Niyut, Sarpi, Ila, Ambika, Iravati, Sudha, and Diksa. Vayu Prana (Chapter 27) lists only eight manifestations of Rudra (Nila-lohita/dark-blue and red). Name Body Consort Progeny (sons) 1. Rudra The Sun Suvarcala Sanaiscara (Saturn) 2. Bhava The Waters Usa Usanas (Venus) 3. Siva/Sarva The Earth Vikesi Angaraka (Mars) 4. Isana The Wind Siva Manojava 5. Pasupati The Fire Svaha Skanda (god of war) 6. Bhima The Ether Quarters Svarga (heaven) 7. Ugra The Sacrifices Diksa Santana 8. Mahadeva The Moon Rohini Budha (Mercury) Brahma enjoined him to have as many children as he can. (According to Brahmanda Purana (1.2.10.1-88), Rudra [Nila-lohita: Blue and Red = Rudra and Fire] was given only eight names: Rudra, Bhava, Sarva, Isana, Pasupati, Bhima, Ugra, and Mahadeva in the bodies of sun (heat or Prana), the water, the earth, the wind, the fire, the Ether, and the Moon (Apana or cold) with respective consorts, Suvarcala, Dhatri, Vikesi, Siva, Svaha, Quarters, Diksa, and Rohini. His sons were the Saturn, the Venus, the Mars, Manojava and Avijnatagati (from consort Siva), Skanda, Svarga, Sanatana, and Budha. Lord Siva is in charge of five gross elements; two vital airs, Prana and Apana; and mind, which constitute Siva’s body.) You may notice some discrepancies here (Usa and Dhatri).
