Kandam describes King Thrisangu was afflicted with a curse by son of Sage Vashista
There
was a righteous King Thrisangu in Surya Dynasty. He had a yearning to set off to heaven with
his mortal body. He approached Sage
Vashishta and respectfully requested any Yagnya he had to perform that would
help him take his physical form to heaven. Sage Vashista laughed at the
foolishness of the King. The King
Thrisangu was not satisfied with the response of Sage Vashishta, so he
approached Sage’s son. Sage Vashishta's son was infuriated at the act of disregard
towards his father and cursed the King to born as a 'Chandala'. The King Thrisangu was ashamed of his ignorance, left
the throne to his son Harishchandra and procced to forest.
The
chandala wandered through the woodlands aimlessly and finally met Sage Vishwamithra. Chandala explained about his wretched life to
Sage. Sage Vishwamitra had always been an
opponent of Sage Vashishta and wanted to prove his supremacy on him. Sage Vishwamitra was determined to grant the
desire of the Chandala. Sage Vishwamitra
decided to perform an Yagna. The Chandala and the Sage set out for Pilgrim
places to take holy dip in theerthas to get rid of the form of Chandala. On their way, they met Sage Markandeya at
Arbudhanchal. Sage Vishwamitra
desperately explained the pathetic story of King Thrisangu and his desire to
Sage Markandeya, also mentioned the vow
he had taken to send the King with his mortal body to Heaven. Sage Markandeya advised
Sage Vishwamitra to go to Haatkeshwar to take a holy dip in 'Patal Ganga'. Immediately after the holy dip in Patal Ganga
King Thrisangu transformed into his normal form, it added surprises to Sage
Vishwamitra. Sage Vishwamitra
wanted Lord Brahma should be present while the Yagna takes place, so he went to Sathya Loka and
explained to Lord Brahma about his desire and preparations to send the King
Thrisangu to Heaven with his mortal body. Lord Brahma advised Sage Vishwamitra about the
fruitlessness of their task, instead he could attain heaven after his death with
all the righteousness. Sage Vishwamithra
was unhappy at the remark of Lord Brahma and left Sathya Loka.
Sage
Vishwamitra's creation of new heaven 'Thrisangu Swargam' - Sage Viswamithra
performed the Yagna with the King Trishangu.
Offerings were made in the fire for twelve long hours. Sage Vishwamithra and the King were dissatisfied
to see the progress. The King was in an anguish
to return to his kingdom without achieving the objective and to face Sage
Vashishta's son. Sage Vishwamithra
encouraged the King to be patient so that no one on Earth could stop him from
achieving his goal.
Sage
Vishwamitra and King Trisangu started to worship Lord Shiva for the completion
of their task. Lord Shiva was pleased
with the Yagna progress and appeared before them. Sage Vishwamithra expressed his desires to
send the king to Heaven with his physical form. He requested Lord Shiva to
bestow the power of creation like Lord Brahma. Lord Shiva blessed Sage
Vishwamithra with the power of creation. Sage Vishwamithra started his creation;
he created the sun, moon, rivers, and oceans so
on. As a result of his creation, everything on Earth had appeared double in
number. It created a great chaos in the Universe and resulted in total devastation.
All the deities approached Lord Brahma with horror and requested to stop Sage
Vishwamithra from his creation lead to destruction of the entire universe. Lord Brahma commanded to stop the creation of
Sage Vishwamithra. In response the Sage
Vishwamitra wanted to fulfill the desire of the King Trishanku. Lord Brahma after taking into consideration of
the seriousness of the situation agreed to the demand of Sage Vishwamithra.
Jai
Sriman Narayana !!
