Lord Parashurama the Warrior Incarnation of Lord

Today we are celebrating the appearance day of Lord Parashuram. Lord Parashuram is known as 6th incarnation of Lord Vishnu and also known as a warrior incarnation.

Lord Parashurama was born as the son of sage Jamdagni. Sage Jamdagni was very religious and saintly person. He was having a cow named Kamdhenu which was so powerful and wish fulfilling.

One day a King named Arjuna (not that Pandvas) came to Jamdagni cottage and Jamdagni hosted a feast for all his soldiers along with King.

King Arjuna go to know it is just because of this cow and he immediately took cow along with him.

When Lord Parashurama came and saw His father face, he asked the reason, father explained everything what took place.

Lord Parashurama became so angry and immediately dressed in a black deerskin and with matted locks of hair, He took His axe and shield and went to punish the king.

He chopped the king in several pieces and no one comes in between to stop him.

After few years in absense of Lord Parashurama , sons of King Arjuna came and cut the throat of sage Jamdagni. When mother of Lord Parashurama Renuka started crying Lord Parashurama ran and reached at cottage.

Seeing the situation he became angry like a snake and again he took the same form in black dress, axe in hand with red eyes he entered into the kingdom of Arjuna and started cutting people like banana tree.

It is said that there was blood pool created and not only once but he killed King Arjuna's 21 generations.

Finally he went for mediation on Mahendra mountain and left everything and again appeared in public when Lord Rama Chandra broke the bow of Lord Shiva.

We can chant this prayer to please Lord Parashurama ;

क्षत्रिय-रुधिर-मये जगद् -अपगत-पापम्

स्नपयसि पयसि शमित-भव-तापम्

केशव धृत-भृगुपति रूप जय जगदीश हरे


0 Kesava! O Lord of the universe! O Lord Hari, who have assumed the form of Bhrigupati [Parasurama]!

All glories to You! At Kurukshetra You bathe the earth in the rivers of blood from the bodies of the

demoniac kshatriyas that You have slain. The sins of the world are washed away by You, and because of You

people are relieved from the blazing fire of material existence.



Jai Sri Parashurama!

Nectar in the beginning but Poison in end

He was young and belonging from rich family, he entered into the compartment and seated next to me.  Long and stylist hair, branded watch on wrist, iPhone in hand but he was loosing his control. Started abusing someone on phone and shouting out very louder, people was looking at him.  He was fully drunken and started vomiting, people thrown out him out of train and he slayed down at platform. Story is not over yet, I was thinking is this our modern education we are providing to our children and in the name of facilities we are giving them huge money, branded gadgets, but being an guarding do we ever try to esquire what they do and, which type of association they keep?  Once these things comes in their hands they start thinking, no one is greater than me and due to false ego they disrespect elder people.  But one thing they forget, disrespecting elder people only harmful to them because elderly people only teach them morality and good lesson. And being an elder person...

How to Live a balanced Life

Until and unless we do not keep our life balanced we cannot live a happy life. Yesterday I met one of my office friend after a long time. I was talking with him and asked about what is going on in his life, in reply he said as usual nothing new. He started telling me his entire story, how his focus was only to earn money and now he has sufficient money, but now he is looking for suitable partner and he is unable to find it. He was looking little worried and he asked me what to do now? I said look my friend, "Everything in life needs balanced, if you keep only focus on one side then definitely other side will be disturbed."  But whatever happened just let it be, but from now onwards you can start from a new beginning.
