Hail Deva army Lieutenant Kumar Kartikeya!
My son has come back victorious.
"This is not the son's victory, but victory of mother's blessings..."
...and father's strength.
"Devgan, I now request you to go back to Heaven fearlessly...."
....as T arkasur who used to disturb your work & peace...
...is now dead. You are now fully protected.
Fully protected?
"Devarishi, do you still have any doubt over Devgan's protection?"
"Please tell us, Devarshi. Where is the obstacle now?"
"Obstacles & doubts don't have any lively or define form, Devraj"
"Narad, you always make Devraj worried."
Why don't you speak clearly whatever you have to speak?
What is left for me to speak when you Tridevs are here.
And sometimes I have to say whatever is in your mind.
"Devraj, I was only trying to say that although T arkasur is dead..."
...there is the possibility of such demons again to attack heaven.
"Devarishi, do you really think about such a possibility?"
"Devraj, please learn to understand hints."
"lf one doesn't put his hands in fire, there is no question of..."
"...burning. But once the hands are in fire, protection gets finished."
"Devraj, Narad wants to say that the results of good deeds are..."
...good & bad deeds are bad. We don't have the knowledge...
"...when a demon takes birth and starts troubling us, when the..."
"...tune of our thinking, deeds and aim go in a wrong way."
"Devraj, if one doesn't waste his time & energy in enjoying the..."
...comfort & luxury and uses it for some good work...
...it brings good results.
"Didn't you want to speak the same, Narad?"
What can be hidden from the omniscient Tridevs?
"The atmosphere in Kailash is delightful, on the other hand..."
...Krittikas in NakhsatraLok must be very sad.
I should go there and share their pain.
Kartikeya's memory has become the reason of our suffering.
The same thing happens with every mother in the Universe.
"lf her son goes away from her, she begins to suffer."
But what is the use of our discussing about world's mother?
Atleast our mind will get some peace.
"We will get peace only after seeing Kartikeya. For that,"
"Devarshi, you make your mind peaceful by chanting Narayan's..."
...name. Please think about our peace of mind too.
Our life has become meaningless without son Kartikeya
But your son is growing vigorous day by day...
...and you are becoming weak! -Meaning?
"Not meaning, you should call it as right."
Your son has won over demon army by killing Tarakasur
His name is being hailed from Heaven to Kailash.
Has Kartikeya defeated T arakasur in the battle-field?
"Y es, alongwith T arak, his Lieutenant & his army too."
"We should meet our victorious son, to congratulate him."
Congratulations or blessings?
You should all be congratulated instead. Hadn't you send him...
"...to Kailash, he wouldn't have been able to kill Tarakasur."
We should depart to Kailash without any delay
Then why is the delay? Let's go.
What happend after that?
What was there to happen? When T arakasur saw me...
"...he had a great laugh, and after seeing him laughing..."
...I also started laughing.
"But what made you laugh, Kumar?"
"l didn't ask Tarak, why he had laughed, Why are you asking me?"
"What's in a laugh? It comes spontaneously, as it came to me."
"See, now you are also laughing."
"Still, Kumar, there must be some reason for T arkasur's laugh."
There must be some reason. As there must be some reason...
...on his being killed in my hands. He must have had a laugh
...thinking that how can this child kill such a huge demon.
"But Kumar, you fought with him and killed him too."
"You only have this knowledge, not him as he is dead now."
Why not? He must have got the knowledge while dying?
You really talk like a child.
Even I am also a child. But he was killed with my weapons
"When he was dying, he didn't have the knowledge that..."
...he would be dead.
What a plight! The battle started with his laughter and...
...ended with his death.
One has to face this consequence after laughing in pride.
"Please have a seat, Devarshi."
Have you or anyone ever seen me sitting anywhere in the Universe?
"What can I do, when the enjoyment of travel is there in..."
"...my destiny? But tell me, what is the reason of this meeting?"
Kumar was narrating us his experience in the war.
"No Devarshi, I was not telling them, but they were listening."
Strange! Greatly surprising! How can they listen without...
...your telling them?
"Anyway, this message has reached your mothers in..."
"...NakhsatraLok without being sent to them,..."
...that you have beaten T arkasur to death.
Mothers! But how can they get the message without...
...being informed that this work is been done by me?
The same way as Shivgan were listening to you without telling.
"How are my Mothers, Devarshi? Do they ever remember me?"
I miss them greatly. They are always in front of my eyes.
I always want to meet them.
Please tell me a way as to when can I meet them.
Don't know how my Mothers will be.
Where & how is our son Kartikeya whom we brought up?
Why call him as foster-son? He is your son in reality.
"He only stays with me, but keep remembering about you all."
He speaks of you only. -What does he speak?
"When he sits with me, he speaks nothing except that..."
...he decided to marry six queens like his six mothers.
He also speaks about his tricks of religion & mercy as being..
...younger while playing hide and seek.
He was telling me about allowing you to open your...
...eyes & mouths while playing. -But where is he?
He will be here in a while. He must be playing with Shivgans.
T arkasur has been kiiled. The purpose with which Nandi...
...brought him here is already completed. Now you please...
"...send Kartikeya to NakhsatraLok again, Devi Parvati."
"Yes Devi, please return him to us. -We can't live without him."
Please send him back with us today.
"No, it is not possible. Kumar can't go back now."
"But while Nandi went to bring Kumar, we sent him along."
You have said this yourself that he is not our foster but real son
Mothers!-How are you son? -How are you Kumar?
"First, Please tell me how are you all?"
"Lord Shiv, please have your mercy on us and..."
...allow us to take Kumar back with us.
Why are you forgetting the truth that Kumar is Parvati's son?
I can't do that injustice to her. Will you be able to do that?
How will Parvati live without Kumar?
We are grateful to you for bringing him up for 1 0 years.
What will happen to us then?
You all will have to have patience & control over your mind
You can always come here to meet him whenever you like
"Mothers, wherever I am, I will always be with you."
My name is attached with your names itself...
"...I am Kartikeya being Krittikas', meaning your son."
Be always happy. We always wish the same.
Our delight is there in your delight itself.
"And for everybody's delight, l request you to help me in..."
...moving the lamp around him while celebrating his victory.
We will definitely help you.
Hail Kartikeya
You bring pleasure & welfare to Universe
You made your gentle form take a huge shape...
...and killed Tarakasur.
"Human, Devatas, Earth Sky, all were blessed"
You cannot get spoiled at all and lnvincible too
Your eyes are that of Shiv & Shakti
You are the medium for the salvation of the Universe
You are the giver of supreme happiness
You are the symbol of respect
The entire Universe kept singing the praise of the good qualities...
...of Kartikeya and his valour. Kartikeya has all the divine...
...powers in him from his very childhood itself.
He was always inquisitive. The cycle of Time went on and...
...gradually Kartikeya attained Young age.
"Had I not met here & went to Kailash, I couldn't have..."
...met you there also. -The meeting place was destined...
"...to be this place, so we met here."
Are you on a tour towards Earth?
"Y es, you are right. I want to see the incidences on Earth."
What will you do after knowing about those incidences?
I will get the experience. And those experience will determine...
...my aim and future course of action. -Great!
But have you told your parents about this before coming out?
What to tell those who are omniscient & can see all phases
That is why I came out without telling them. I'll depart now.
"Mahadevi, I could not find Kumar Kartik anywhere in Kailash. "
Even I couldn't find him. -Where can he go?
Didn't he tell you before going out? -No.
He might have told Lord Bholenath about this.
I'll go and ask him.
"Nandi, have you seen Kartikeya? -No, Mother."
"Have you seen him? -No Mother, I also haven't seen him."
"Lord, Kartik has gone somewhere without telling anybody."
Please tell me where has he gone.
Rest peacefully. Kartik has gone on a tour. He will come back.
"Has he told you before going? -No, he didn't tell me."
"Meaning, you are telling me with the help of your divine sight..."
...that he has gone on a tour. -Yes Devi. You are right.
"What should I do now, as my Lord has engaged in meditation"
Why are you worried when Mahadev is not worrying.
"Kumar has gone on a tour, so he will come back anyway."
And what is to fear for the one who has killed T arakasur...
...as he is strong and powerful. -You are also all powerful.
A mother's heart is always worried towards her son even...
...if the mother and son both are very strong & powerful.
"But Kumar is always careful. -Y es, he is a great warrior &..."
...courageous too. T o be worried for him is useless.
Let's go and finish the task of preparing flower garlands.
Salutations from Kartik to Sage Agasth & Mother Lokmudra
How fortunate we are that Lord Shiv's son has arrived here.
You are welcome here. -lt means you recognize me.
Who does not know one who brought welfare by killing T arak
Who willn't know Shiv's son? We requested to Lord Shiv...
...to send a representative to spread Shiv-devotion in...
...the Southern part. And He accepted our prayers.
He sent His son as representative to this place.
This is a matter of great delight for us.
"No Mother, I haven't come here to spread Shiv-devotion."
Then why have you come here Kumar Kartikeya?
Because of my inquisitiveness. I was travelling in the sky...
...when the sacred atmosphere of your Ashram impressed me and...
...I came down to meet you. And Father Shiv hasn't told me...
...anything about this.
What is the need to tell? His play is always mysterious.
"He does not express what He has to do, but somehow..."
...he definitely fulfils the wish of His devotees.
I didn't understand your words.
I understood Lord Shiv's ways & you didn't understand my words?
I will definitely understand if you speak to me clearly.
What is there to speak clearly? I can only request you to...
...be here and light the lamp of Shiv-devotion.
How can I light the lamp of Shiv-devotion?
Who can perform this work more efficiently than Shiv's son?
What is there to think in this auspicious work?
"Sage, your wish will be definitely fulfilled. But it'll take some time."
Please allow me to depart now. -But why?
I set out on my tour without my parents' permission
I will have to take their permission to stay here.
Of course! A job done with the permission of parents' only...
...is auspicious & results in happiness & success.
We will wait for you till you come back.
Wish you a happy journey. -Thank you Sage.
I will have to reach early as Mother will be worried.
What happened to you? Where are you lost?
"l am experiencing the same, that happens to any mother..."
...while her son is away & she doesn't know where is he.
You are being worried without reason. Kumar will come back...
...soon. You didn't even take your bath today.
How is it possible to perform both the works at the same time
Both the works? What are they?
T aking a bath & being worried for Kartikeya
"lf you can't do them simultaneosly, then do them one..."
"...by one. By the time you finish your bath, Kartik will be here."
And there will be no reason to do the next work anymore.
Let's go and you have your bath.
"OK, both of you go & get ready, I will follow you."
"Nandi, I am going to take a bath. Be on guard here."
"And beware, don't allow anybody to come inside."
Who will dare to go inside while I stand on guard?
"OK, be alert."
"Forgive me, my Lord. Entry is prohibited."
How dare you say that to me? Are you in sense?
You don't seem to know what you are telling to whom
"l am speaking to Lord Shiv, as per the order of Devi Parvati."
She has warned me against letting anybody enter inside.
"Fool, you dared to count me as anybody, I am her husband."
"The Universe knows this truth. I am only obeying Her order, Lord."
"So you care only for Devi's order, not Mahadev's."
I'll definitely obey your order.
Then I order you to go away from my way.
Please don't give me such an order which is against Devi's.
"You call me Lord & serve to me, but obey only Devi's order!"
I am servant to you both. Please don't throw me in a dilemma.
"OK, I will not throw you in a dilemma, I'll throw you aside."
"Please forgive me, Mother."
"What are you thinking, Mother?"
"Kartikeya, where were you for this long? You never care for me"
Where do you go away leaving me alone?
"ln future, wherever you go, first take my permission."
"But tell me, where did you go?"
I was here only. Where can l go away leaving you alone?
"What are you thinking, Devi?"
It's greatly surprising. You have not taken your bath till now.
"What is this, my Lord? -Why? What happened?"
How can you come to my bath room like this? I got scared.
Got scared of your husband? A husband has the right to...
...come to his wife anytime & anywhere.
Right? But every right has its own time & limitations.
"Please go away now, my Lord & let me complete my bath."
"As you wish, Devi."
"Nandi, -Please order Mother. -Not order, I'll have to enquire."
"When you know that I am taking a bath, why didn't you stop him?"
"l stopped Him, Mother."
You stopped Him! But whom did you stop & who actually stopped
Mahadev came inside. Then whom did you stop and when?
Do you call this stopping Him?
"l requested him not to enter as you were taking a bath, but..."
But? -But he pushed me aside and entered inside. What could...
"...I do in that situation? I am His servant, & He is my Lord"
"Had you been my servant, would you hesitate to push Him..."
...and allowed Him to come inside? Why don't you answer me
I also had told Him that you are taking a bath...
...but Mahadev didn't listen to this. How could we stop Him?
"Who can dare to stop Lord Shiv, Mother?"
If you all are that helpless then go away from here.
Will this problem be solved by our merely going away?
What problem? -The problem of security.
This kind of incident may occur in future too.
"As Mahadev is your husband, it was not so painful"
Had he been some other than your husband then?
A security arrangement is very essential.
A special person has to be appointed for personal security.
All we have here are Shivgans There is no servant for...
"...you, to look after you. -Had Nandi been your servant,"
...he wouldn't have allowed Mahadev to enter so easily.
"ln his devotion towards his Lord, he failed to perform his..."
...duties in protecting his Lady.
You are right. I have to give a serious thought in this regard.
"Not thought, but you should put it into action."
Why don't you give the charge of protecting you to Kartikeya?
He is your most dear son.
"Kartikeya! But he is Shiv's son in the first place, then Mother's"
And he doesn't stay in one place for long.
He moves around various places. I'll have to find some way.
Parvati! -Who are you? -What type of question is this?
Don't you recognise yourself? -Me & you!
"You are my earthly form & I am your divine form, Shakti & Shiva"
Why did this unique form was separated? -For doing games
What kind of Plays? -Plays of welfare & benefit of people
But who will perform all these Plays? -Your son
"My son, meaning Kartik."
Kartikeya is Shiv's son. He hasn't taken birth from you
He is not your son despite being your son.
Is he not my son? -He is but at the same time he is not
Son is the protector of his earthly mother. You are earthly
But Kartik is fond of travelling & peacock is his vehicle.
He can't stay in one place for long. -Then what is the way?
The little world is full of ways. You will have to bring...
...those ways to the bigger world. -How?
"With your determination, and by giving birth to a son from..."
...your own body. He will be your son.
"Being born out of your vigour & sweat, he will be strange..."
...and with great qualities. -Strange & with great qualities!
"Y es, full of different qualities, and with strange appearance..."
...he will be unmatchable with other sons.
The whole Universe will respect him.
Salutations Mother!
You are my son. This is the closest relation between us...
...which is there between a mother and a son in Universe.
I am your mother and you are my son.
I already came to know about the closeness & relation...
"...between us, that is why l called you as Mother"
Now please tell me what is my name?
Your name is Ganesh & you are the supreme among gans.
"Then I will be at service with all my mind, body & life"
Will you be at my service?
"Y es, as per the closest relation between a son & his mother..."
...it is every son's duty to be at service for his mother.
I will also do that.
T ake this stick. -What will happen from this stick?
You will have to punish with this stick. -But whom?
Whoever tries to enter my room forcefully or without my...
"...permission, you will have to punish them. -As you wish."
You will have to be on guard here with full attention...
...so that no one can enter inside. -I'll surely obey your order.
"Beware! If you want to stay alright, don't proceed further."
"Who are you to obstruct my way, daring boy"
How dare you ask my identity by standing at my door itself?
First tell me who are you.
I am Mahadev. I have to go inside.
"l don't have any relation with you, whoever you may be."
I will not allow you to enter inside. It is Mother's order.
Who are you & who is your mother?
"He who doesn't know about my mother, doesn't know anything."
"And who doesn't know anything, I also don't show him respect "
You are a lovely child.
I may be a child. But I am also sincere towards maintaining my...
...duties. And I'm not among those too who lets enter the evil
...one by improper way after listening to his praise.
This is your sincerity. Now let me go inside.
"By believing in each other's sincerity, we do not get the..."
...right to defy order & respect & doors will not open..
...instead it becomes more difficult.
Nothing is possible without my Mother's order.
"Please tell me your name & your mother's name, "
...by whose order you are standing on guard here.
"Don't you know the mother of Universe, Mother Parvati?"
I am his son Ganpati Ganesh.
I still don't remember when Gauri(Parvati) gave birth to you.
"How can you remember, as l am beyond birth."
Go and ask your mother that Mahadev is waiting outside...
...and wants to get inside.
I will wait here till you come back with her permission.
"Mahadev, you must be very knowlegeable & intelligent..."
...but I am not a fool. Do you want to remove me from...
...performing my duties by removing me from this place?
You will get inside as soon as I am away.
So I'll not go away from here.
"Adamant boy, how will you not go away?"
"My Mother has asked me to stand, not go away."
"With whom you are having to argue today, Kailashpati!"
"Do you know that in the enire 1 4 worlds, nobody dares to..."
"...come in my way. Just because you are a child,"
Otherwise do you want to have a fight? Let's fight then
"Wicked boy, how dare you speak so big in such a tender age"
"Elders will not speak like a child, & you will not allow..."
...a child to speak like an elder. Then where will big words go?
"Anyway, what do you think about having a fight?"
"Go away from my way, otherwise,"
It is not proper to attack a child.
My devotees will tell you about my decision.
They will give you some good ideas.
How can gans give ideas to Ganesh?
Stop all these. -You seem to be angry.
"There is reason to be angry, so I am getting angry."
"What is the reason, my Lord?"
"That wicked boy, who has dared to stop my way,"
Who is the boy and where did he try to stop you
"Nandi, you are also becoming insane. On one way the child..."
"...dared to do that, on the other you are enquiring me"
He is standing on Parvati's door and didn't allow me to go inside.
Go & find out who is he and where has he come from
"He is speaking highly, he is relating himself with Parvati..."
...go and remove him from there as soon.
"As you wish, my Lord. Come with me, Bhringi. "
"Beware! If you come even one step further, I will break..."
...your heads in the name of my Mother.
"The child is very naughty. -Not naughty, but have a stick in hand"
...and this stick is to punish those who cross the limit
Who are you to speak such big words?
Are you fond of listening to small words?
Despite having such huge figures can't you bear big words?
Then how will you bear the beatings of my sticks?
I asked who are you? -Don't shout.
This is not essential that l should answer your each query
Still I will answer. I am my mother's son.
All are mother's sons. But where from where did you fall here?
Hold your tongue and your words.
I am not a leaf to fall here. I am my mother's son.
I have taken birth and appeared.
Is it so? But why & who asked you to appear?
So you dare to imitate your elders!
"The tradition is that of imitating the elders, as there is no..."
...tradition of imitating the youngers.
You really speak like an intelligent person.
I work even more intelligently.
"No, you have done an improper job by not allowing Lord Shiv..."
"...to enter inside Mother Parvati's chamber, you have..."
...insulted him. It's now His order to remove you from here.
"Well, try atleast to shake my leg, before removing me."
I will throw you like a ball in an instant. Let's go.
"Please save us, Bholenath."
"Jaya, what kind of cry is that? -I'll go & check it."
Who are you?
"l am my mother's son, who is inside. "
But where from this child has come here?
"First tell me, how did you reach inside?"
We are friends to whom you are refering to as your mother.
Meaning aunt? -Y es. -One mother & two aunts
What's the reason that you came back laughing after going to...
...to find out the reasons of the cries?
"There is a child standing outside, with a stick in hand."
He is referring to you as his mother. -He is telling the truth.
"What? -Y es, I have given birth to him."
Got beaten up by a child? Shame on you!
"Lord, he is not an ordinary child. -Even you are not ordinary gans"
He has strange & magical powers.
But where did your power vanish?
Go and remove him from Parvati's door instantly.
If he still doesn't listen then?
Then ask Devi Parvati to remove him from there. Go.
"lf you dare to come close this time, I will throw you in the air"
Let's see who throws whom. If you don't let us go to Mother...
"...Parvati, this time, we will not leave you alive."
"What kind of a strange play is going on in Kailash,..."
...and why is Lord Shiv silent?
I think we should instantly go to Kailash & know the situation
Let's go & ask Lord Shiv himself about all these happenings.
"Lord, what kind of torture & shoutings are going on in Kailash"
...and why don't you stop it? -I am trying for that.
A naughty boy is standing on guard in front of Parvati's door
"He is allowing neither me to go inside, nor the Shivgans..."
...but how can I use my powers on a child?
But who is this child & where from has H appeared in Kailash?
"By introducing himself as his mother's son, he points towards.."
...Parvati's room. Only after he is removed & I enter inside...
...can I ask Parvati about the appearance of this child.
"Bholenath, your play is also unique. Parvati's son must be..."
...your son too. You will anyway ask Mother Parvati...
...but whom will we ask about him?
"Bholenath, please protect us from that naughty boy."
There is strange power in his stick...
"...if we go to him again, we will not come back alive."
"Be quiet, Nandi. Lord Bholenath will surely find some way."
What can I do? If I got angry with the daringness of that...
"...wicked boy, then destruction will only follow."
"You have come on the right time. Go to Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu.."
...and request them to come to Kailash & make the child...
...understand with love to go away from the place.
"Yes, that will be proper. We will go there as soon."
"By seeing all of you together, it seems the problem is serious."
"Y es, Lord, the problem is very serious."
Narad has the ability to disclose any problem in his poetical...
"...words, so tell me about the problem, Narad."
"Parampita, a naughty boy has appeared in Kailash with..."
...a stick in his hand & he is beating the Shivgans.
Neither Lord Shiv nor the Shivgans are able to stop him.
"He is only going on beating. Kailash, where Lord Shiv's..."
"...play is prevalent, that boy's naughtiness also seems to..."
...be Lord Shiv's play itself. But when we approached Lord Shiv...
"...to know about this, He sent us all to you. -What's the reason?"
"Lord has asked us to request you SriHari, to go to Kailash..."
...and make the child understand to go away with love.
"You are the Creator of this Universe, Lord. Who will know..."
...about the mystery of his appearance better than you?
The mystery has been deepened by sudden appearance of the...
...child & Lord Shiv's being clueless about him.
"Truth is that, it is Shiv's play formed for welfare of Universe."
Shiv's play? Meaning my assumption was correct.
This will be such a play which will make the Universe surprise
It is good that Shiv's play will result in welfare for all...
...but what should be done with that wicked boy?
"When Lord Shiv has send you all to me & SriHari, this is the way!"
Now you go to Kailash. I'll be there alongwith Lord Vishnu.
And we will try to make the child understand after being there
"As you wish, Brahmadev"
"How come you are here at this moment, Chandradev?"
I came to seek appearance of Lord Shiv...
...but after reaching here I saw that the situation is different.
"Y es, when I came here I saw some Shivgans lying..."
"...unconscious outside the palace. How did all these happen, Lords"
Let's go & request to Lord Shiv to give us some way.
"Maheshwar, where is that naughty boy?"
He is standing in front of Parvati's room.
Please bring peace to Kailash after bringing him under control.
It is surprising to see that Kailash is having restlessness
It is more surprising as these all are happening in Shiv's presence
"SriHari, we should go there and see for ourselves."
"Yes, let's go and see who is making all these troubles."
Beware! Nobody should dare to advance towards my mother's...
...room. It will not be good for anybody then.
We don't want to enter the room. -Then why have you come here?
Have you all come to show your appearance or to seek mine?
We have already secured your appearance.
Now the task of making you understand is only left.
Came to make me understand! Do you consider me as ignorant?
"No, had we thought like this, we wouldn't have come here."
"We have come here to make you understand this only,"
"Excuse me, but instead you should understand &..."
...it will be proper if you all go back.
Why should we go back? We will not go back till you leave.
"We will remove you from the door. Devgan, remove the child."
"l am creator, Brahma. Obey me & go away from this door. Else,"
"Else, what will you do?"
I am SriHari. I'm requesting you to go away from this door.
This is not possible as per my Mother's order.
You are great. And great is your courage & valour.
"Please bring an end to this play of destruction, Lord."
My son! What has happened to you?
Who has dared to do this evil?Answer me.
What crime did he commit? Answer me.
Is it not a son's duty to obey his mother's order?
Your silence will lead to great destruction
I will create the great destruction
I will destroy the enemies of my son
Appear Devi Shamunda!
Appear MahaGauri!
Appear Brahmacharini!
Chitradasvi!
Karthayayani!
Kalratri!
"Please order, Lady of power."
"Go & cause great destruction, you great powers."
"Bring an end to all Devatas, Demons and Shivgans"
"Please forgive us, Devi"
"Please stop this terror, Devi"
Otherwise the whole creation will be finished. Forgive us.
Please save the Universe from getting destroyed
We are the criminals. Please forgive our crime.
"We all pray to you, please forgive us."
"Demon & Human Durga, Mother Shakti"
Please accept our devotion
Please free us from fear by throwing dust of your feet
"You have eight shoulders, and you are death of the night"
You are Durga & Mother Bhavani too.
You are Mother Chamunda & Brahmacharini too
(Your incarnate)Chittarupa results in welfare
"Karthayani, you give boons of pleasure by removing worries"
Time prays to you for its movements
"Even death also asks for life from you, Mother"
Clouds begs for thunderbolts from you
And thunderbolts begs its sound from you
"Dev Kuber also begs food & wealth from you, Mother"
We all have committed the crime We all are your criminals.
We are now begging your forgivance...
...with our heads lowered & spreading our arms...
...with humble prayers with breaths...
...painful mind begs to you from time to time
"Please calm down, Mother, for the welfare of Universe."
This destruction will result in no good.
But who will compensate the loss I had?
Why was my son killed?
How can you ask the mother to be calm whose son is killed?
Can such a mother be calm?
Then how will you calm down?
"First, you will have to make my son Ganesh alive again,"
"Next, he should be prayed first among all the gods."
He should be given such respect. Then only I'll be calm...
...otherwise great destruction is inevitable.
We will try for it. We will pray to Lord Shiv
Lord Bholenath will surely make Ganesh alive again
He will even grant the right to Ganesh to be worshipped first
We all will go to Lord Shiv now.
That child is Ganesh. -Mother Parvati's & your son.
You will have to make him alive.
"Otherwise, Devi will not stop destruction"
T o kill that naughty boy was not my aim.
But it was essential to bring an end to his attacking tendency
I know that Ganesh is Parvati's son
He must be alive again -You will only make him alive.
We all want Ganesh to be alive again.
"Therefore, we will do this job together."
"lt will be started by Sri Hari. -What will I do, Bholenath?"
You will have to go towards North and cut the head...
...of the first being which come to your sight.
Head of any innocent being?
You will have to take the final decision.
No innocent should be done any injustice.
As you wish.
You will have to go towards North and cut the head...
...of the first being which come to your sight.
"This is the first being, how can I cut the head of this innocent? "
This is Airawat. He is not innocent. He is cursed.
He is been made to fall from Heaven to Earth.
His head will be suitable for child Ganesh.
Crores of salutes in Lord Vishnu's feet.
"You gave me salvation, and I am free from the curse now"
The time of your curse was finished. Every moment...
...is counted & calculated in the Law of Nature.
"lt is not merely a connection, that Lord Shiv cut Ganesh's head"
"...and I cut your head to replace him, as you are the first being..."
...that I saw. These all been governed by Nature & your deed
Go to Heaven now.
"l will again secure my seat in Heaven by your grace, Lord"
Leave for Heaven. I also have to reach Kailash.
Go and salute your father.
Ganesh has become Gajanan (elephant headed)
Hail Ganesh Gajanan!
"Parvati, one of your wish is fulfilled. One is left now."
"Please fulfil that too, my Lord."
"From today, Gajanan Ganesh will be worshipped first among..."
...all gods. I give him this right.
If anyone worships any God before worshipping Ganesh...
...that worship will not be accepted by Gods.
So Gajanan Ganesh'll be regarded as thefirst to be worshipped.
Of course! Ganesh will be worshipped first.
"Hail first to be worshipped among Gods, Gajanan Ganesh."
"Ganesh, you are now respectable for all Devtaas. That is why..."
"...I declare that from today, whoever offers you Vermillion..."
"...and offer prayers with flowers & sandal, all his troubles will go"
Hail trouble-shooter Ganesh!
"Ganesh, you have taken birth on the fourth day of Sukla fortnight"
...of Bhadra month. So this day will be known as Ganesh...
...Chaturthi & this day will be auspecious for your devotees.
Hail Gauri's son Ganesh!
You are worshipped first among all Devs. You are benevolent.
You have a huge figure & your vehicle is a mouse.
You love eating Modaks.
Hail four shouldered(Bhuja) and eight Vinayaka
You make the whole atmosphere auspicious.
You have bent teeth and an elephant head
You are the giver of knowledge & wisdom
You are even the Lord of destiny.
You remove the troubles of everyone.
You are trouble remover and giver of pleasure
You look after the Universe and remove the sufferings
You are the cause & remover of obstacles.
In all the three worlds you are the special God
"From then onwards, Lord Ganesh began to be worshipped first."
"He was the giver of success, happiness & trouble-remover."
In the entire Aryabat & temples were built in His honour.
"This way, from fourth day of Bhadra month, Ganesh became..."
"...idol for both Devas and human. In this happy occasion, although..."
...he got mixed up with his elder brother Kartikeya...
...Vishnu was sensing something different in store for future.
"Lord, in which play are you engaged? Please listen to me."
What kind of meditating sleep is this? Please answer me.
Welcome Narad. You have appeared at the right time.
Have I ever come in an improper time before this?
You really play a lot with words.
I wanted to say that I needed you at this time.
"Mother, I am always present at your service."
But you seem to be worried today. Is everything alright?
What trouble can he have who is worried about trouble of Universe
Your arrival has created the opportunity for you to help me
What kind of help. Mother?
I am calling this Narayan of yours for a long time...
...but without any success. When I am getting no replies for...
"...my calls, there is no question of your getting any answers..."
...for your queries.
"The way of your calling must have been mild, mother"
Should I then shout so that it can be heard in three worlds?
I was calling to him the same way as I call him everyday
He always listens to me that way. But he is not waking up...
...from his meditating sleep today.
You are not unfamiliar with Him & His meditatimg sleep
He is in sleep while awake & awake while in sleep
"This is also not known, when he is meditating & when he is not."
But Lord should listen to my calls.
"Lord never unhears anyone's calls, so how can He..."
"...ignore the calls by you, who is His closest one."
"Narad is right, Devi."
"lf I am right, then you were visualising some plays..."
...of the future by being in meditating-sleep. Isn't it Lord?
"Very good, Narad!"
"All your words, information & guessing is also correct."
Please tell me now which incident of the future...
...were you visualising?
I was seeing the plays of Ganesh & Kartik.
"For years, not only Kailash but the entire Universe will be..."
...showered with their plays.
What are you thinking after seeing & telling us about that?
Your being thoughtful this way proves one more thing...
...that whatever incident you are thinking about the future is...
...not delightful & auspicious.
"Have I guessed right, my Lord?"
"Your guess is not always right, Narad."
Still I am not in a position to answer you in affirmatively
Is it proper to discourage me by laughing at your Lord's words?
"Even if I guessed right, still Lord will not say yes."
"ls it fair, Mother?"
"Listen to me, Narad. The matter is serious. I was wondering..."
...why separation with union & sadness with delight...
...is always associated.
"Excuse me, Lord. Besides moving your Sudarshan Chakra..."
...you sometimes move the subject & discussion too.
You were talking about Ganesh & Kartik. But wherefrom these...
...references of separation & union; delight & sadness appeared
Is it possible that they have some relation?
What can we do even if there is some relation? Nobody is free...
"...from the Law of Nature. Not even Brahma, Vishnu & Shiv"
I was just telling about a simple truth.
Simple truth! Narayan's simple truth!
What an affectionate bonding is there between Kartik & Ganesh
They both stay together & plays game & Leelas
Don't know how many years have passed in seeing their plays.
"Have you seen Kumar Kartikeya, Mother?"
"Ganesh & Kartik, both were playing some games"
"Where is Ganesh? Ask him about Kartik, he will tell you."
Ganesh is also looking for Kartik. I came here...
...searching for him only.
"Mother, where have you sent brother Kartikeya?"
He is not seen in Kailash from the morning itself.
Here comes Kartik.
"Where were you, brother? I am searching for you from morning."
Where did you go without telling anybody? We were all worried.
You should always leave after informing somebody.
"Whenever I feel like meeting Sage Agasth, I go to him."
"We wouldn't be worried, had you told me before leaving."
Be careful from next time.
"I'll obey you, Mother."
"Let's go and play now, Brother."
"Lord, both our sons have come to the age of youth."
We will have to think about their marriage now.
"Y es, both of us will have to think about their marriage."
"Only thinking? -Not only think, we will search for brides also"
We both will have to do it.
Why are you refering to both of us after refering to both of them
I am speaking the truth. Both their positions are diiferent...
...from ours as no two girls are worshipping for them with the...
...determination that they will marry just Ganesh & Kartik.
Your name is only Bholenath. You are not so innocent as appeared.
"l am here, Brother Nandi. Catch me"
Brother Nandi is defeated.
"Bhringi, cover my eyes. I will catch Ganesh."
"Brother, catch me. I am here."
Have you seen my Lord? Ganesh is playing tricks.
"No Devi, this is neither trick nor cleverness, but only child-play"
But all including Kartik is being cheated without reason.
These things happen in a game. The opponent is being...
"...cheated & made tired, which increase the possibility of win"
Every party of the game do like this only.
This is the fruit. -Now aim your arrow on it.
Don't be afraid. Stand still.
"Brother, everyone is afraid of me. You aim this time."
Ganesh will lose this way.
Defeat & victory are not important in any game.
"What is important is the trick, intelligence & delight and..."
...the attitude of a true player.
"What delight will be left if defeat, victory has no importance"
"No Devi, delight is there in the pleasure & efficiency of the game"
"Giving importance to defeat & victory increases rivalry, which..."
...pollutes the feelings & makes the players have bad feelings...
"...towards each other, which ends in enemity."
"Ganesh, you are decieving"
"As I am younger, I make mistakes, Brother"
Both the brothers have strong love & affection between them
They should have. It is natural. It would be a matter of...
...discussion had there been enemity & hatred between them.
But is it not surprising that brothers have enemity &...
...hatred between them
It is surprising to them who regard love & affection...
....as essential in life & their emotions are natural
But who lead a false life after getting trapped in the...
...illusion of selfishness and right and regard false happiness...
"...as the absolute, they don't feel surprised nor feel ashamed."
Whatever be the nature of truth in the Universe...
...but our sons have affection towards each other. -Y es.
You are still wandering with flowers in hands?
I am not wandering. Instead I am waiting.
"So you also started waiting now -Fool, halt your words"
I am just waiting for Lord Shiv to appear so that I can...
...offer flowers at his feet. -See here he comes!
Both our sons have attained marriageable age. Now we have...
...to arrange for their marriage. I will ask them and learn...
...about their wish too.
What is there to ask about their wish?
That they should also be agreed to get married
"lt seems both are having some important discussion, so it's late"
We are their parents and they are our children.
It is not time that we should know about their decision too.
"But Lord, the children will only get married."
Does it mean that it will be decided by the children only?
Why are you forgetting that both our sons are intelligent...
...& this kind of a son knows that his parents know better...
...than him and whatever parents decides will be for their good.
"That age has not still come, when one being ignorant and..."
...under the influence of carefreeness of the young age...
...gets married against the choice & decision of their parents
Bless you & be always benevolent -Strange blessing!
"Y es, one who is benevolent always receives good things"
So one who desires happiness should always do good work
"Mother, we will always follow this advice of our father."
"But please tell me, why didn't you give me any blessings?"
I have already given lot of blessings to you both
So you are deciding to bless others then. -Y es.
Please tell me who is he? -T o my daughter-in-laws
"But where are they? -lf they are not here, they will appear"
"Sons, your mother wants you both to get married now"
True. I am now restless to see my daughter-in-laws
Now your duty is to fulfil your parent's wishes
"Not we both, only Ganesh"
Why do you want to escape from performing your duty?
I am not interested in getting married
"l don't want to be entrapped in this bonding, instead I want..."
...to spread Shiv devotion & religion among everyone.
But how does marriage come in your way?
The responsibilities & duties of married life does not let one...
...to meditate in a religious way.
"You said enough, there is no greater ascetic than your father..."
"...still he is married. -Why are you silent, Father?"
My silence means my support towards your mother
There is no parent in the world who can bear to see...
...their son remain a bachelor.
"Till my brother decides on this matter, I am ready to obey..."
...your order and be at your service. But the problem is that...
...nobody is going to marry their daughter to an elephant-headed
"You have told the harsh truth jokingly, but there is another..."
...side of this truth too.
"An ignorant who is desirous of bondage, only sees the..."
...appearance & colour. But one who is wise always gives...
...value to virtues & intelligence inside one's body.
You are a pot of intelligence. There must be several fathers...
...willing to give their daughters' hand to you.
We will discuss about this soon-I'll obey your orders
Then we will look for eligible brides soon.
Salutations from Buddhi & Siddhi.
Please allow us to go on pilgrimage for our happiness
"Yes, we both sisters want to go on pilgrimage"
Our father doesn't want to give us permission
It seems to be so. Let's go back.
"May you secure the most virtuous, intelligent, powerful..."
...and wealthy husband in the universe.
"lt feels great to see you being shy, "
As shyness is the best jewelry for a woman
But why are you looking so sad & depressed?
Y es daughters. Please tell me the reason of your being depressed
You didn't give any answer to our request for your permission...
...allowing us to go on pilgrimage.
We thought that you don't want to send us.
"No, how can I prevent you from auspicious work like pilgrimage?"
Go for sure. And pray to your idols in the pilgrimage to secure...
"..the most eligible grooms for yourself, so that I can be..."
...free of my responsiblities.
"Father is worried over daughter's marriage, & daughters are..."
...willing to go on pilgrimage. You shouldn't be worried for...
"...such virtuous and eligible daughters' marriage, King."
It's natural for a father to be worried for his daughters...
...when they reach marriageable age.
What a play of Lords! On one hand you are getting worried...
...over your daughters' marriage & on the other hand...
...parents of the eligible bachelor is waiting for a father like you
But who is waiting for me?
One who is looking for daughter-in-laws.
"The parents of the groom is waiting, King"
"Devarshi, please tell me about their names"
Who doesn't know them in the Universe? -I don't know
"You also know about them, King -Please tell me clearly."
"As per the Law of Nature, both your daughters will be..."
...daughter-in-laws of Lord Shiv and Devi Parvati.
You should approach them in Kailash for the same reason.
"l am grateful to you, as your message freed me of worries"
"As per your order, I'll go to Kailash in an auspicious moment"
Please allow me to depart for Sage Agast's hermitage in the...
"...Southern region, where I will spread religion & Shiv-devotion"
"l will also go with you, Brother."
"No, I'll go in my peacock vehicle and come back as soon"
I will also board on the peacock.
"Why are you being adamant, Ganesh?"
"l am not being adamant, but proving to be one."
"l am going with a purpose. If you want to travel,..."
...then who will stay with our Mother?
"What are you speaking? When we both were not there,..."
...our father used to be with her. He will stay with her now too.
"Ganesh, there is no need to argue. You should stay here."
Your father is right. You should stay here.
Now I can't refuse my mother's order.
"A good son always obeys his parent's order, not refuse"
I will come back soon. I'll depart now.
There goes SriHari Vishnu's incarnate Sage Parashuram...
...destroyer of warrior-clan. But where is he going so fast now?
Has he again decided to attack some warriors? I'll have to ask.
"How come you are in this forest, Narad?-I am fortunate to..."
...see you today. But where are you going so fast?
"Narad, I only like to enquire, not reply, and anyway you are..."
...not my elder or my idol that I must answer you.
"How can I be your idol, I am like your son, Sage"
"Beware Narad, I am an eternal bachelor. Nobody can be of..."
"...my son's age, nor I am like somebody's father."
There is no position of a father & son with me.
"No Sage, there is some position if you permit, I'll prove to you"
What do you want to prove? -That you are like my father.
"Why are you getting angry with this innocent, Sage?"
"This truth appeared not on my mind, that you are Lord Vishnu..."
...incarnate. That is why you are like an idol to all...
...and that is why everyone regards you as a father figure
"When you understand everything, why don't you allow me to..."
...understand such a beneficial & delightful relationship?
"lf you regard me as your son, l won't have any objection, Sage."
Do you consider me the same as Deva & Demons to show...
...your play of words? -Don't make your son suffer by...
...getting angry with him for no reason.
You haven't seen my anger yet.
"Nor do I want to see your anger, please don't show me the same"
Then hold your tongue by realising the consequence.
"The warriors whom you have killed for 21 times, have seen..."
"...your anger and its consequence too. They were warriors, so..."
"...they were able to bear your anger, but I am a sage."
You can't show your anger on me.
"Narad, you are evoking my anger by refering to it repeatedly."
"Strange, Sage! If your anger is aroused merely by listening to..."
"...the word anger, then you must be calmed by hearing word"calm"
"Be quiet, so that Bholenath's meditation is not disturbed."
"We will all be quiet, Mother."
Stand on guard here with full attention. -Why mother?
Don't allow any being to reach the meditation ground.
Bholenath's meditation should not be obstructed.
As you wish. I'll not allow even anybody's sight to reach there.
You please rest assured.
Why hasn't brother Kartik come back yet?
He should have been back by now.
He told me that he will go to Sage Agasth's hermitage.
But it will take time to spread religion & Shiv-devotion there
"How soothing it is, if there is friendship between brothers..."
...same way it feels good if friends have brotherly feelings
We both have both the feelings. He must be thinking about me...
...as I am thinking about him.
Beware! Don't proceed even a step further.
You can't go towards the meditation ground.
Strange being! Who are you to prevent me from going...
...to my Guru's place?
"Sage, the place where you are standing is mine, not yours"
"Therefore, you are not in a position to enquire, but answer"
I only have the right to enquire. Please tell me who you are...
...and why have you come here?
I don't even feel it essential to know about the person who...
...regards himself eligible despite being arrogant.
But it is essential for you to know about me. I am beloved...
"...son of Shiv & Parvati, Ganesh. I am here as per Mother's order.."
...so that nobody can proceed towards the meditation ground.
"lmpossible! You are neither human, nor an animal. "
Such an extra-ordinary being can't be Shiv-Parvati's son
"Please lower your voice & eyes, if my father's..."
...meditation is disturbed then destruction will follow.
"And remove the anger from your eyes and see, you will find..."
...that I am a human with an animal appearance as well
"Fool, don't talk like a mad anymore & get out of my way"
Mother asked me to stand still & you are asking me to go away
But how can I do both these works at the same time?
"Anyway, what is the need for this? And it is very essentilal..."
"...to stand here as per mother's order, who gave birth to me."
Had you known that I am Parashuram and I have...
...removed the kshatriya warriors 21 times from the world...
...you wouldn't have dared to behave this way.
You may have removed the warriors 21 times...
...but it was before my birth. Now try it for the 22nd time.
"Fool, your death seems to be moving over your head."
T ake this!
"Devarshi, destruction is taking place. We will have to stop it."
But who will stop this? A battle is stopped only when it is...
...called off by the starters. But both of them are continuing here.
Parshuram is attacking forcefully out of his anger
But Ganesh is turning all his attacks to failure.
Please do something Devarshi. Lord Vishnu incarnate Parashuram
...& Mother Parvati's son Ganesh are fighting with each other.
Why doesn't Lord Shiv put an end to this fight between...
...His disciple and His son?
"Bholenath must have thought like you, still the fight is going on."
"lt means these are all Lord Shiv's play, which is an..."
...introduction to some future events. It has been allowed...
...to go on so that it will lead to some consequence.
"Destruction is taking place, Mother. Please come quickly"
What happened?
"Mother, some mysterious person is fighting with Ganesh outside"
He seems to be really powerful. Ganesh will not be able...
"...to defeat him. Please go there instantly, Mother"
Who is this wicked to attack my son without reason?
I will not leave him alive who has attacked my son
"Please forgive my crime, Mother. Although he told me that he is..."
"...your son, but I couldn't believe him for his strange appearance."
"You are suitable to recieve punishment, not forgivance"
"How will that mother forgive you, whom you wanted..."
...to make childless. -lf there is no forgivance for the crime...
"...committed unknowingly, there must be some penance for that."
"Never! One can commit mistake unknowingly, but not crime"
A work done under anger & arrogance is definitely a crime
I will surely punish you for that.
Wait Parvati. When you know that a work done under anger...
"...is a crime, why are you going to do that evil like an ignorant?"
"Please forgive me, Mahadev. I have surely committed a crime."
Now I will accept whatever punishment is given by Mother
I had actually come here to secure your appearance...
...but unknowingly the whole situation was reverted.
Earthly being don't know the truth that you are Lord Vishnu's..
...incarnate and my respected too. What was destined has already...
...taken place. You are just a medium for this.
Ganesh will be worshipped with one tooth only. Nature has...
...given the task of making him one toothed directly to you only
The anger towards SriHari Vishnu's incarnate Parashuram...
...is improper & unneccessary. All these have happened as per...
"...my play and wish. Ganesh, you fought with him as ignorant."
"Now as you have the knowledge, show your respect to him"
"What has happened in ignorance! He, who was..."
...eligible for affection has been subjected to my anger.
I had to fight with the one I should have embraced.
"Please forgive me, Ganesh"
Please don't say like this. You are respectable for me
"Please accept my salutations, Lord Parashuram"
I am blessed to secure your appearance
"l am blessed instead, as l secured Guru Mother, and..."
...Brother's appearance alongwith my Guru
If you are Lord Vishnu's incarnate then you are an ldol...
"...but as you are Bholenath's disciple, you are also subject..."
...to my affection. You became subject of my anger by breaking..
...Ganesh's tooth prior to that. It seems as if ignorance had...
"...made its appearance prior to your coming here, which..."
...influenced you at first and then me. Please forgive me for my...
"...evil words. -No, please don't make me suffer by asking..."
"...for forgivance, as you are my Guru Mother."
"l am asking forgivance from you not as Shiv's desciple, but..."
...as you are Lord Vishnu's incarnate.
But I came to secure the appearance of my Guru Shiv...
...as a disciple. But I have committed two mistakes here.
"One, I attacked Ganesh, & next my GuruMother had to ask..."
...forgivance from me. I will have to do penance for this evil job.
"Please permit me, Lord. I'll go to Mahindra mountain and..."
...do penance for my crimes.
Sage Parashuram has departed for Mahindra mountain.
This incident was to end happily like this only.
I had already told you that all these are merely plays of Shiv
But what is the essence of these plays of Shiv?
"Meghdev, are you still limited by essence only..."
... when you should have reached the aim of the essence.
"Actually, to make Ganesh worshipped as one toothed, Lord"
...Shiv evoked the desire to seek His appearance in Parashuram's...
...heart and subsequently all these events followed.
And introduced His family to Vishnu incarnate Parashuram
And Ganesh became one toothed.
"Brother, if you were here, l wouldn't have been one toothed"
"What could I have done, even if I was here? Father was here"
When He couldn't do anything how could I prevent that?
"And truth is that, all these have happened as per father's wish."
He wants to make you more worshippable as one toothed.
So here you are in that shape.
Now as Brother Kartik is also here should we start playing?
You are not at all worried about the marriage of your sons
"What are you speaking, my Lord? I myself had discussed this topic"
"...with you. -Y es you did, but now that discussion is forgotten"
"No, I have not forgotten that, but I know that nothing is..."
"...possible without your wish. Until you wish, the discussion..."
...about our sons' marriage will remain as discussion only.
"Just think, if I had no interest in this, would I start this topic?"
"Welcome King. -lnspired by Narad, I have come here..."
...for fulfilling my own interest.
"Please tell me about your needs, King Vishwarup"
How can I tell my needs to one who is omniscient?
I want to be free of the responsibilities of my...
"...two daughters, Buddhi & Siddhi."
Whom do you want to hand over the responsibilities to?
By making them both your daughter-in-laws
"Please tell your decision, Devi. -That right is yours, Lord"
But both these girls seem to be my daughter-in-laws
"Meaning, you have already decided about them without..."
...waiting for my decision to make them our daughter-ln-Laws
"King, go back to your palace and rest assured. "
"When it is time, you will get the auspicious message"
"l am blessed by my fortune, Lord"
The two girls you have seen are our would be daughter-in-laws
But you both have to prove your eligibility before marriage
Don't you regard ourselves as eligible for marriage?
"It's not like that, try to understand the meaning of words"
You both will have to travel around the world before marriage
Whoever comes back early from the tour will get married first
We were only thinking as to who should get married at first...
...and at last this was the only way that was decided.
"l have already told that I am not interested in marriage, Father"
"One does not get married out of interest, Kartikeya"
"Anyway, it is not son's right to agree or refuse to get married"
The whole right of this is with parents only
That is why you will just have to obey your parents
As you wish.
"Ganesh, I will give you a mouse-vehicle..."
...so that you can join Kartik in travelling around the world
"Ganesh, your mouse-vehicle will not be able to go ahead of..."
...Kartik's peacock-vehicle in travelling around the world
It will be better if you don't take part in the competition...
"...and accept defeat, as Kartik will definitely be the winner"
I myself do not want to compete with brother Kartik
The only harm will be that I will get married after Kartik
Then where is the confusion?
I am bound by my parent's order. That is why I am helpless to...
...show disrespect towards the competition.
"Brother, auspicious time is here. It's time to set for our journey"
Now we should start our travel around the World
"Y es, there shouldn't be any delay without reason."
We should secure our parent's blessings before starting our tour
"Y es, the result of any work done without the blessings of..."
...parents become painful. So we must secure their blessings
Will this mouse-vehicle make me a winner in the competition?
"What happened, Ganesh?"
"Nandi, will this mouse be able to carry me around the World?"
"lf you have your luck, then you'll go ahead of Brother Kartik"
Mouse-King! Will you be able to carry me around the World?
"lnstead ask him, will he be able to ahead of Kartik's vehicle?"
When he can't move how can he go ahead of my brother?
It seems to be impossible.
But the competition has already started & Kartik has already left
"And you are still here. If you delay any further, you'll lose"
"No, Brother Nandi, I'll be the winner"
Congratulations Kumar!
"Why are you congratulating me, Devarshi?"
Congratulations for winning in travelling around the World
The decision about win & defeat is not yet taken...
...as the competition is still on.
"But it has already been decided indirectly, if not directly"
And How will Ganesh be able to go ahead of you in his vehicle?
The wind like speed of your peacock & slowness of that...
...mouse is unmatchable. How long & till where will that...
...mouse be able to bear the weighty body of Ganesh?
"You are already a winner, Kumar"
But I don't accept this. -lt takes time to accept the harsh truth.
You have great affection for Ganesh. You wouln't like...
...his defeat and your win. But your win in the competition...
...is a predetermined truth.
"This is also true that I neither want to win, nor get married"
I have taken part in the competition only to obey parents
You respect your parent's order and also want to remain a...
...bachelor by not getting married.
"How will you be able to perform both the jobs together, Kumar?"
Please guide me to perform both the works without confusion
There is only one way. -Please tell me about that way
You will have to lose in the competition. And for that...
"...you should reach Kailash lately. Meaning, lower your speed."
This will result in Ganesh's win for sure
I also want that Ganesh should win and get married
That is also already decided. -Meaning?
"Meaning that, both the daughters of King Vishwaroop will..."
...get married to Ganesh only. That's already decided by Nature
"Ganesh's marriage, -Y es, it will take place with Buddhi, & Siddhi"
"You didn't tell me, how will you win the competition"
One who comes back first from travelling around the world...
...will only be the winner. Meaning travelling around world
"Yes, it was only decided."
"Please let me think alone, to bring that decision to reality..."
...I pray to you to go away from here.
Travelling around the world!
What are you thinking? Son's world is there in parents itself
"This is also true that, parents only introduce one to the world"
"Parents are the entire Universe. In scriptures, mother is regarded"
"...as Earth & father as sky. Anyway, it is impossible for..."
...you to travel around the World. So it will be proper for you...
"...to move around your parents as penance, as this will be..."
"...the same as travelling around the World. Now go, Ganesh."
"You have come back victorious. So why is this sadness, Ganesh"
"No, don't hail for me. I am not the winner. "
Where is Mother Parvati? -She must be in her room.
"Then please go & tell her that, Ganesh wants to secure Her..."
...appearance instantly. She should come here as soon.
"As you wish, Brother Ganesh"
"Now I have understood your play, my Lord. Now I will have to..."
...do that whatever you wish & there is no alternative to this
And I am guilty for whatever I am doing
Whatever is happening is only as per your play & wish
"Ganesh, how come you returned so early from the tour?"
It is not possible for me to travel around the World.
I want to do penance for ignoring my parent's order
"And this penance is possible only with your forgivance, Mother"
Please have a seat beside our Father
We all beg forgivance for disturbing in your meditation
But to wake you up was essential.
"Please tell me about your wish, Devi. -Ganesh will tell that."
"Mother Gauri, Father Shankar, Hail GauriShankar!"
"What is your need, my son?"
The need is not son's but father's. But son will reveal it.
Then tell me what do you want to speak.
"l want to tell that as per Scriptures, mother is regarded..."
...as Earth & father as Sky. And by moving around my parents...
"...more than thrice, I have earned more virtue than moving around..."
...the World. And parents stand above all. Parents only...
...introduce the child to the universe. Nobody is greater than..
"...them as idol, respectable. They are the entire world for a child."
And moving around them is like moving around the world itself.
"Ganesh, I am delighted by your intelligence & talent."
You have defeated Kartik with your cleverness...
...now you have secured the right to get married at first.
"l can't even imagine to defeat my elder brother Kartik, Father"
And one who desires to win over his elders never wins
I took part in the competition definitely as per your order...
...but I don't wish that brother should be defeated.
"T o obey your order, I have moved around my parents"
"As Brother Kartik is elder to me, he should get married first."
Kartik himself will decide about this. -As you wish.
I will wait for my elder brother Kartik.
So you have come back to keep your promise of spreading...
...Shiv-devotion and Vedic religion. I am delighted for this.
"l will definitely keep my promise, but I have come to secure your..."
"...appearance at this time, Sage. I have set out for travelling..."
...around the world as per my parent's order. I will come...
"...back to you as soon as this work is finished, and will..."
...finish my last duty.
"When you set out for travelling around the world, then why..."
...did you violate their order by coming to this hermitage?
"l haven't violated any orders, Sage. As your hermitage..."
"...is on the way, I couldn't resist the temptation of securing..."
"...your blessings. -Seeking my appearance is true,..."
...not the temptation. There is another reason for coming here
"Yes, Sage. There is another reason too. -What?"
This travelling around the World is a competition between me...
...and my younger brother. And l don't want to be a winner...
...by defeating him. -Why?
"lf I defeat him, then ordinary man will lose faith in the..."
...generosity of elder brother. -Will you accept defeat...
...just to win the faith of the universe.
What can be greater win then winning the faith of universe?
All other victories are lesser in comparision to that victory.
"This is true, and it will be like this only."
You have delighted my mind. The behaviour of the Vedic-religion...
"...& Shiv-devotion, which you want to spread, has already..."
...made its place in your life. You will be definitely...
"...successful in your mission, Kartikeya."
Now allow me to leave. Ganesh must be waiting for me.
"Please calm down, Ganesh. Kartik will be back soon."
"He will be back, but is it fair? -What is unfair then?"
I made the travelling around the World easier by moving...
...around my parents. Is it fair?
You had yourself told that parents are above all.
And moving around them is also regarded as greatest & just.
I & you consider this like that. But will Kartik agree to this?
"He may not like this idea. I feel sad, thinking about this."
"He will not regard it as unfair, as their is deep affection..."
...between you two. It is useless to feel sad thinking on that.
"No, I will surely beg forgivance from him"
"Devi, Ganesh's intelligence has proved his bright future today"
He will be surely worshipped by everyone.
Kartikeya is also an expert in knowledge & religion
"He not only befriends with Sages, they are always eager..."
...to listen to his advices too. If he has respect & devotion...
"...for his parents, he has deep affection for his brother Ganesh"
I feel he is delaying only to make Ganesh the winner.
Your thinking may be correct. Until Kartikeya comes back...
...nothing can be said definitely about this.
Ganesh is also waiting for him.
Here comes Kumar Kartik!
"Ganesh, I am delighted that you came back before me,..."
...by moving around the World. Congratulations on your win.
What victory & what congratulations!
I am instead ashamed and seek forgivance too
Let's secure our parent's blessings at first.
Then we will discuss on this.
Kartikeya has also arrived. Both are coming this way.
Both are being praised.
Please declare the marriage of both.
"Devi, I am not in favour of throwing my decision on them"
Why are you saying like this? Their marriage will take place...
...as per their parents wish. -Of course it should be.
But Kartikeya has already expressed his unwillingness...
...to get married. He is more interested in serving...
...religion & working for welfare of people.
Both of you have been victorious in moving around the World.
Ganesh has earned the virtue of moving around the World by...
...moving around his parents with the help of his intelligence.
And Kartikeya has obeyed his parent's order by travelling...
...around the World.
Welcome Narad. You always come with news.
T oday you will leave with a news.
What is that good news which will be spread from Kailash?
Both Ganesh & Kartik have come back victorious in the...
...competition of travelling around the World.
Definitely a good news. And it is good message for the Universe...
...that both of them were victorious. -How is it so?
"Mother, very often, there is the prevalance of rivalry, zealousy..."
...arrogance & badthinking in competitions.
But this competition will be regarded as unique in Universe.
Kartikeya was moving slowly so that Ganesh become the winner.
And Ganesh travelled around his parents only to obey his parents..
...without any feelings of winning in the competition.
"Mother, doesn't this competition give a message for the Universe.."
...that if there is good feeling both the sides end up being...
...victorious and satisfied.
"Narad, you made the news a good message."
"How can Narad do the job of making & breaking, Lord."
These are all your plays. Both your sons have virtuous qualities
"...and have to be congratulated. At the same time, congrats..."
...to you both for being their parents.
Keep the pot of your congratulations protected...
...as we are going to arrange for both their marriages soon.
It will be required at that time. I have already chosen the brides.
I carried the message to King Vishwaroop as per Shiv's order
He had come here to request for the same with his daughters
Now don't delay any further. I'll inform him about this soon.
"No Devarshi, this is not possible."
"Not Possible! What can be impossible for Kartik, the..."
"...son of Mother Shakti & Lord of Three Worlds, Lord Shiv?"
"This truth is the symbol of ability & power, Devarshi"
But the matter of marriage is absolutely different
I have already made my unwillingness to marry clear
It will be in my favour if I am no more made helpless in this.
"Please allow me to depart for the Southern region, so that..."
...I can keep my promise to Sage Agasth.
"lf you don't get married, I'll also remain a bachelor for good,"
Why should you remain unmarried?
I am asking the same question to you.
I have repeatedly made it clear that I want to complete...
...my job of spreading religion and Shiv-devotion.
The path & the aim of my life is different & marriage is an...
...obstruction in this regard. But you don't have such obligation.
"Therefore, you must get married."
"Ganesh, we can't compel Kartik to get married."
Situation is clear that you must get married now.
We have already given our word to King Vishwaroop.
Now both Buddhi & Siddhi must be married to Ganesh
"Narad, go & inform King Vishwaroop that he should..."
...start preparations for the marriage.
"Kartik, you will be able to leave after Ganesh's marriage only."
"As you wish, Mother. I'll leave after Ganesh's marriage only."
Meaning the starting of Ganesh's marriage'll be good & auspicious.
Hail MangalMurti (the symbol of auspicion) Gajanan Ganesh!
"lf you listen to me attentively, then only you will be benifitted "
"As being son of Lord Shiv & Devi Parvati, he is anyway..."
"...remover of troubles & giver of happiness, but after..."
...marriage his virtue & strength has been increased further...
...as there is Buddhi & Siddhi with him now.
Whoever worships Buddi & Siddhi alongwith Ganesh...
...will secure intelligence & success alongwith...
"...wealth & fame. So devotees, call me with devotion and..."
...respect : Om Sri GaneshyaNamaha!
Now I will leave for South after being blessed by my parents.
I am looking forward to your order & blessings.
Why don't you stop your brother from going to South?
"It's useless to stop him, as South is his work-place."
He will introduce new traditions of religion & devotion there.
He will be more worshipped then other Devi & Devtaas
"He will be worshipped in South by the names of Arumukham,..."
"...Satmukham, Subramaniyam etc."
Kumar Kartikeya left for South to spread Shiv-devotion and..
"...Vedic religion there. Likewise, Shiv-devotion was prevalent..."
...in in the heart of Ujjayni King Chandrasen. The citizens of...
...Ujjayni were ever mesmerised by his Shiv-devotion.
He was always engaged in Shiv-devotion.
Why did you stop? Go ahead.
"Please listen carefully, Don't you hear anything?"
I am not been able to hear anything with both my ears.
But even you don't have more ears than me. How can you...
...hear something which I don't hear?
"Not with ears, Mother, listen with your mind. You'll hear too."
What will I hear? -Om Namah Shivaya!
"Son Srikhar, wait, listen to me."
"Please forgive King. Ignorant boy, he came inside despite being..."
OM NAMAH SHlVAYA!
