It is early morning in Kanchipuram, Bhargav was by the river offering his morning prayers. Several young maiden were staring at him, some behind trees while others behind the bushes. He was a charm to their eyes.
Bhargav, being a warrior easily sensed their presence, but he didn't look back at them. They weren't a threat. He just finished his prayers and came out of the water to leave.
He went straight to his home, his father was off to Kailashnathar temple to teach his students, while his mother sat in deep meditation. There was peace in the house, which was increased by sweet voice of prayers coming from his previous room which was now that of Damini.
"Srinav savadhu, Srinav sakhi, Srinav Shakti, Srinav smiti, Srinav shraddha, Srinav shashwati, Sri sri namami." Damini sang lightly while doing her rituals.
Bhargav sat on the threshold of the room, listening to the bhajan. The words in the verse really captivated him, this goddess was extremely beloved of her consort it seemed. Only if he knew.
"Hariharnandini manoharra
Charushila Srinav jeevana
Kartavya nistha sharanya
Navgrah mata ved vadhatra." Damini sang before her eyes fell on Bhargav and she stopped for a red tint appeared on her face.
"Kshama kumari. Maine puja mei vighn toh nahi dala ?" Bhargav asked.
"Nahi Nahi Kumar ! Koi vighn nahi dala. Meri puja toh sampann huyi." Damini said.
"Aapke bhajan ke shabd man ko anandit karte hai." Bhargav said.
"Harihareshwari toh sabhi ko anandit karti hai. Paramanandi hai yeh. Aur aap jaise yoddhaon ka bal hai woh." Damini smiled.
"Gurudev ne bataya tha inke Yudh-Kaushala aur Suryamandala roop ke baare mei jab unhone mujhe Hariharaastra ki shiksha di thi." Bhargav said, at that Damini's eyes widened.
"A-Aapke paas Hariharaastra hai ?" She asked amused.
"Hai toh sahi kintu maine kabhi uska prayog nahi kiya. Maa Bhagvati ki kripa se aisi koi stithi hi utpann nahi huyi." Bhargav said.
"Aisi sthiti utpann na hi ho toh hi uchit hai, devi Suryamandala ke katha anusaar uss ek Astra se Madhu Kaitabh ki prachand sena ka kshan-bhar mei annt ho gaya." Damini said.
-- KASHMIR --
Vidyashree walked inside the Martand Mandir, carrying all the 10 Upanishads in her hands.
"Pranaam Gurudevi !" The little children greeted.
"Kalyanmastu." Vidyashree smiled keeping the heavy texts down.
"Gurudevi, aap toh Kashmirpur ki Rajkumari hai na ?" A young girl asked.
"Ha Mahitha." Vidyashree smiled.
"Toh itna bojh akele kyu uthati hai ? Seniko ko bhi toh yeh bhaar diya jaa sakta hai." Mahitha suggested.
"Chinta hetu dhanyawaad priya Shishyaa, kintu gyaan kabhi bojh nahi hota. Yeh toh abhushan hai, inhe toh mai hi uthayungi." Vidyashree said as the little girl smiled.
Soon arrived the students of Shardapeeth along with few teachers.
"Shri Gurubhyo Namah." They bowed and she nodded.
"Aasan grahan kare." Vidyashree said.
"Gurudevi, kaksha prarambh ho isse poorv ek prashn puchne ki anumati chahta hu." A teacher of Shardapeeth said.
"Acharya Amritanand, isme anumati ki kya awashyakta ? Guru parampara ki mahima prashna karne mei hi hai, maun rehne mei nahi." Vidyashree smiled.
"Brahmaan ko toh na dekha jaa sakta hai, na suna jaa sakta hai, aur na uski shabdo se vyakhya ki jaa sakti hai. Toh Brahmaan ka gyaan arjit kaise hoga ?" Amritanand asked.
"Uttam prashn hai Acharya. Yeh baat keval Brahmaan nahi apetu aatma aur Paramatma ke sandarbh mei bhi satya hai. Yadi aap sochenge ki yeh teeno koi vastu hai, toh aap inke gyaan se vanchit rahenge. Inn teeno ka gyaan keval anubhav se milta hai. Har kshan aur har shwas ke anubhav mei." Vidyashree said.
"Dhanyawad Gurudevi." Amritanand bowed.
