Chapter 25
Sounakathis! After some time, due to the strange fate of some planets, there was a 12 year famine in that country. Due to the lack of rain, all the crops on the earth were destroyed and the trees and vines were destroyed. As there is no liquid, no Yaga, Homam or Siradham takes place. All the Rishis who were there regretted the lack of food and ran away to many places. Seeing this, Svrathan also decided to go to a place of prosperity. At that time Goddess Gayatri came out of the river like lightning, showed her body and disappeared again and asked him to listen to her.
“O Brahmin! Do not go anywhere else from this place. Stay here with your family and disciples. I will save you. Cut a spacious well in the forest where you are doing penance. Water will flow from it as quickly as rivers flow from the mountains. Next to it, sow wheat and cultivate with the water of this well. The water in that well will never run dry.”
Hearing these words of the goddess as if to her own son, the Brahmin happily dwelt there with his balls as a happy man with a comb of his hair. Aditi cut the well as told by the goddess, planted samaiba and cultivated the crops with the well water. Agni performed hotram, yaga, and siradha to satisfy the devas and pitrus.
After the famine, the departed Maharishis came to their respective abodes, forgetting all the Vedas due to lack of proper food. They discussed the method to remember the forgotten scriptures. At the word of one of them, everyone went to the sage Markandeya, who was penance in Katambavana, and asked for Vedabhiksha.’ You are the best of tapasvi! We were traveling from town to town because of Durbhiksha. It is forgotten because we do not recite the scriptures because we are starving. They prayed that they would kindly teach us the scriptures. Brahmins who heard this! I am a boy, and it is not proper for you or the Vriddhas to have Vedatyanam performed on you. It is the order of the Vedas that those who study and teach the Vedas wrongly will go to hell. But let me give you a trick to get the scriptures. 2 miles east of this Katambavana, the sage Suvrata, who lives in Valayanardhana Kshetra, on the banks of the Gayatri River, does not go anywhere in the Durbhiksha Samaya, and by the grace of Gayatri Devi, he is memorizing the Vedas with the six parts without any difficulty. If you go to him you can get the scriptures you have forgotten.”
He said. Immediately, the Brahmins became happy and prayed. Due to the grace of Suvrata Kuda, they became Vedic scholars as before. These Brahmins, along with their disciples on the banks of the Gayatri River, attained the realm of Moksha, the eye of this earth, Sukamanupa Vidhu Moksha. Whoever tells this story; Those who learn to write; Or those who do sravanam
Even if they are Mahamudras, there is no doubt that they will be knowledgeable in the Vedas.
