Parashurama's Extermination of the Haihaya-kshatriya caste

[Guest guest]

Jaya Guru Datta,

 

 

 

He himself is the incarnation of Lord Vishnu. His incarnation was meant

for this purpose. As mentioned in another paragraph, the kings under the

emperor Kartaverya are causing miseries to the saints and innocent

people. Emperor

Kartaverya was not able to control these kings. Lord Vishnu himself

incarnated in the form of ParasuRama and established peace and balance in

the society in those days.

 

 

 

They may be an inner meaning behind ’21 times’ and killing ‘Rajasikas’

(RajoGunas). You can probably infer the statement “There is no sin in

killing the sinners†in this context. Let me listen to Sri Swamiji's mp3

audio of Datta Darsanam ...

 

 

 

Regards,

Phani

Jaya Guru Datta.

 

 

 

Sri. Parasurama did not kill all kshtriyas. If you read Ramayana, He used to

frequent Janaka's palace. In fact, Parashurama presented the Siva dhanus

(bow given by Lord Siva to him) to Janaka. This was the same bow which

could not be lifted by all the kings who came to marry Sita. Similarly,

Parasurama spared DasarathA too.

 

 

 

Parasurama killed only impious kshtriyas. After Kartaviryarjuna, his sons

and grandsons, and also many other kings who ruled many of the kingdoms

became very tyrannical and they did not follow dharma. Since this became a

menace, the avatara of Parasurama cleaned up the earth from these rulers.

 

 

 

The end of His avatar comes when he meets the next incarnation Sri.Rama

Himself, who reestablishes the kshtriya clan to rule the world dharmically.

The sloka in Ramayana explains this " rAja vamsan ... stApayishyati

rAghavah " .

 

 

 

It is said that Sri. Datta avatArA was primarily to preach the highest truth

to Parasurama Himself. TripurA Rahasyam was the main teaching.

 

 

 

My 2 cents.

Parashurama's Extermination of the Haihaya-kshatriya

caste

 

 

 

 

 

Jaya Guru Datta,

 

I am reading Sri Datta Darshanam as a bedtime story for my son and i have a

question.

 

Can anyone offer some thoughts about the yeast of the story of the hidden

meaning about Parashurama's extermination of the kshatriya's. He went round

the world - 21 times - killing !! all kshatriya's. (Sri Datta Darshanam,

page 140-150). And about the statement - There is no sin in killing sinners

!!
