The earth.

General.

The 笔耻谤腻峁嘺蝉 maintain that 叠丑奴尘颈 has a 顿别惫墨 (goddess). The births of 叠丑奴尘颈 and its basic goddess are in two different ways.

The 惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补, (顿腻办峁�i峁嚹乼测补 笔腻峁环补) says that the goddess 叠丑奴尘颈 was the daughter of 叠谤补丑尘腻 and that she was married by 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻. The earth on which we live is the M峁泃pi峁囜笉a of which the basic deity is this 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨. Of the many versions given in the 笔耻谤腻峁嘺蝉 regarding the origin of earth, three are given below:鈥�

1) Long ago, towards the end of the age of floods, the earth was in a liquid state. At that time, 艢颈惫补 cut open his thigh and let fall a drop of blood in the water. It assumed the form of an "补峁囜笉补" (egg). 艢颈惫补 took that 补峁囜笉补 and split it. A man came out of it. From him was made Nature (笔谤补办峁泃颈) for the creation of the Universe. One half of the broken 补峁囜笉补 became sky and the other half became the earth. (碍补迟丑腻蝉补谤颈迟蝉腻驳补谤补, Kath膩p墨峁環ala峁僢aka, 2nd 罢补谤补峁単补).

(2) 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 lay on the surface of water which spread everywhere in the beginning. A lotus sprang up from the navel of 痴颈峁ａ箛耻 and from its top 叠谤补丑尘腻 was born. Liquid matter began to flow out of 痴颈峁ａ箛耻鈥檚 ears on both sides. From it were born two 搁腻办峁�a蝉补蝉 named Madhu and 碍补颈峁璦产丑补. They persecuted 叠谤补丑尘腻. 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 woke up and killed Madhu and 碍补颈峁璦产丑补. The thick fat of these 搁腻办峁�a蝉补蝉 hardened into the earth. (顿别惫墨 叠丑腻驳补惫补迟补, Navama Skandha).

3) In the beginning 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 (惭补丑腻vir膩峁� 笔耻谤耻峁�a) spread everywhere. In every pore of that 惭补丑腻vir膩峁� who was lying on the surface of the water, there was a 叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉a. In course of time that 痴颈谤腻峁� obtained mind. That mind stood connected with each of the pores equally. Later from it were formed the "笔补帽肠补尘补丑腻产丑奴迟补蝉". From their combination was formed the 叠丑奴迟补 called "惭补丑腻 笔峁泃丑惫墨". It was cut into many pieces and each of the pieces was deposited in each pore. It was these 笔峁泃丑惫墨 pieces which became "叠丑奴尘颈s" at the time of creation. At the time of the floods, these 叠丑奴尘颈s sank again into those pores as before. In each of these 叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉as, there are the earth, mountains, forests, oceans, the seven islands, 贬颈尘补惫腻苍, Meru, Sun, Moon, Stars and other planets. Also, each of them has its own 叠谤补丑尘腻, 痴颈峁ａ箛耻, 艢颈惫补 and other Devas. Since all the different 叠丑奴尘颈s in all the 叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉as had been formed artificially, they all perish in the floods. (顿别惫墨 叠丑腻驳补惫补迟补, Navama Skandha).

3) 叠丑奴尘颈 顿别惫墨 (Goddess Earth) is the wife of 惭补丑腻 痴颈峁ａ箛耻. In Var膩ha Kalpa (Age of the Pig) the Asura 贬颈谤补峁噛腻办峁�a carried the Earth and Submerged it under water. At once 惭补丑腻 vi峁ａ箛u appeared in the form of a Pig and lifted up the Earth on its horns. When the Earth floated on the surface of water like a lotus leaf, 叠丑奴尘颈 顿别惫墨 who was pleased, stood up in her charming figure. 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 fell in love with her and with the brilliance of a crore of suns, had sexual union with her for the period of one 顿别惫补惫补谤峁�a. It is from that time that 叠丑奴尘颈 顿别惫墨 became 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻鈥檚 wife. As a result of their union, a son named 惭补峁単补濒补 was born to them.

Gha峁璭艣a is the son of 惭补峁単补濒补. 惭补峁単补濒补 has another name, Covva. After the birth of 惭补峁単补濒补, at the behest of Lord 痴颈峁ａ箛耻, all people began to offer worship to 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨. 惭补丑腻惫颈峁ａ箛耻 himself first worshipped her by reciting the mantra鈥�"翱尘 贬谤墨峁�-艢谤墨峁�-碍谤墨峁�-痴补蝉耻诲丑腻测补颈 厂惫腻丑腻". After that this mantra became popular for worshipping 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨. (顿别惫墨 叠丑腻驳补惫补迟补, Navama Skandha).

狈补谤补办腻蝉耻谤补 was 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨鈥檚 son by 贬颈谤补峁噛腻办峁�a, the Asura. When 贬颈谤补峁噛腻办峁�a, in the form of a pig, carried 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨 on his horns to 笔腻迟腻濒补, the horns came in contact with 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨 and she became pregnant. In 叠丑腻驳补惫补迟补, Da艣ama Skandha we read that 狈补谤补办腻蝉耻谤补 was born as the result of this contact. (See the word Naraka I).

厂墨迟腻 was the daughter of 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨, born on another occasion. 厂墨迟腻 was married by the Kosala King 艢r墨 R膩ma. When she was abandoned by her husband, she was at last accepted by 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨 within her own self. (See the word 厂墨迟腻).

叠丑奴尘颈 and 笔谤补丑濒腻诲补.

Since 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨 had been the wife of the Asura 贬颈谤补峁噛腻办峁�a she has also been called the mother of the Asura clan. 贬颈谤补峁噛腻办峁�a鈥檚 brother was 贬颈谤补峁噛补办补艣颈辫耻. 笔谤补丑濒腻诲补, the son of 贬颈谤补峁噛补办补艣颈辫耻, was a devotee of 痴颈峁ａ箛耻. The father did not like the son鈥檚 devotion to 痴颈峁ａ箛耻. So he persecuted 笔谤补丑濒腻诲补 in various ways. Once he threw down 笔谤补丑濒腻诲补 from the top of a high building. At that time 叠丑奴尘颈 dev墨 appeared there and received him in her arms. (叠谤补丑尘腻峁囜笉a 笔耻谤腻峁嘺, Chapter 24).

叠丑奴尘颈dev墨 and 笔峁泃丑耻.

Once the Emperor 笔峁泃丑耻 turned 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨 into a cow and milched all resources from her. (For details, see the word 笔峁泃丑耻).

笔腻谤惫补迟墨鈥檚 curse.

Once 笔腻谤惫补迟墨 and 艢颈惫补 indulged in their sexual act for many years. The earth began to shake to its foundations. The gods approached 艢颈惫补 with a request to refrain and he agreed. 艢颈惫补鈥檚 semen was discharged and fell on the earth. 笔腻谤惫补迟墨 who was angry at this, cursed 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨 as follows:鈥�"You 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨! You will assume many forms and become the wife of many. Since you have prevented me from giving birth to a son, no children will be born to you in future." (痴腻濒尘墨办颈 搁腻尘腻测补峁嘺, B膩lak膩峁囜笉a, 36th Sarga).

(3) When 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 was carrying on the annihilation of 碍峁�a迟谤颈测补蝉, 叠丑奴尘颈dev墨 induced the sage 碍补艣测补辫补 to entreat 笔补谤补艣耻谤腻尘补 to stop his massacre of 叠丑奴辫腻濒补蝉. (Protectors of 叠丑奴尘颈=碍峁�a迟谤颈测补蝉). (惭补丑腻产丑腻谤补迟补 艢腻苍迟颈 Parva, Chapter 79, Verse 44).
