Talk:Parashurama/Archive 1

Where is Mumbai
The coastal area of Karnataka and Kerala state along with Konkan region ,i.e. coastal maharashtra.,in India is known as Parashurama Kshetra (Parashurama's area). Some dispute this and say it extends all the way to Mumbai in Maharashtra.

Is Mumbai not in the Coastal region? Why such a statement then? --202.75.192.19 09:10, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Parshuram
A temple of Parshuram is also situated at Akhnoor, 18 km away from Jammu city, J&K.

Every year, in the month of May, a huge celebration in the form of a parade, names as Parshuram Jayanti, is marched through the main city of Jammu. The budget of this huge celebration in the form of a parade is in lakhs and is entirely arranged by the Brahmin community of Jammu city and the adjoining areas. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.91.85.197 (talk) 08:47, 27 February 2008 (UTC)

Merge
I have added the merge tag again. I want other editors to give their opinions on the issue. Please give a reason for your Support Merger or Oppose Merger opinion:


 * No, don't merge. Keep it as it is. Raj2004 11:21, 16 January 2006 (UTC)


 * Merging should be done! All other articles, such as Bhargava Rama and Parshuram etc are misspellings, according to WP's guidelines for spelling Indic names.
 * —Karthik.raman 03:57, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

SUPPORT MERGER - Merging is appropriate because Lord Parashuram is Eternal - chiranjeevi - the naming convention could sound little different depending on the dialect and language spoken, does not necessarily mean they are different people. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.91.196.81 (talk) 12:19, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

Cheers...A wikipedia enthusiast
 * Another Opinion-Do merge Parshuram with this page. It is silly to have 2 webpages on the same thing just because of a different way of spelling the same Sanskrit word in roman script.


 * i agree keep the pages sepreate


 * I too agree pages should be seperate .. Amaresh Gangal.


 * "Pasted from Bhargava Rama talk": "Auther: I have read the article: Parasurama, which gives more importent to mythology. My articles tedns to separate out mythology from comprehencable facts. For example the concept of Parasurama, as an incarnation of Vishnu is a mythological concept, where as the dispute between Bhargavas and Kshatriyas in which Parasurama playing a major role is a comprehencable fact. I would like to provide a link from article : Bhargava Rama to the article Parasurama, like this:- For knowing about the myhtological aspects of Bhargava Rama, refer the article:-Parasurama. "

Already, in Parashurama, under Other Names, Bhargava is listed. So just merge and maybe put in a redirect
 * "Pasted from Bhargava Rama talk": Parasurama is the nickname of Bhargava Rama. So merge Parasurama into this article and put a redirect in the Parasurama article.  But this should be done after careful reading :user:Aanand Pranav Sharma
 * Support Merger This article discusses Parshurama from the prospective of Mahabharata and Ramayana, which are mythological epics and not historical documents. --Redtigerxyz 13:39, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
 * "which are mythological epics and not historical documents." do you have a proof that they are not? I surely do not have a proof that they are :).  BalanceΩrestored Talk 06:05, 24 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Support both Bhargava Rama and Parshuram are the same. Merging is appropriate. I think ones who are asking not to merger should give clearer reasons, so we can understand your reasons for opposing the merger. This will help the administrators taking a decision.

Gudiyattam
There is a temple in Gudiyattam with the same story. That he slew his mother at that spot. There are such Parashurama temples all over India. Whereever people turned into landowners, they seem to have "used" this story and built a temple for Parashurama, narrating similar or associated sequence of events for that spot. No one knows how old each of these temples are. But a lot of people from a cross-section of people turned to tilling / owning land in the aftermath of the mughal invasions. The story had its genesis before the british arrived but was used well into the period of the raj to make claims. --= No ||| Illusion = 15:21, 5 June 2009 (UTC)Mayasutra —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mayasutra (talk • contribs)

Parasurama in Arunachal Pradesh : There is a Parasuram Kund nestled in the lower reaches of Lohit River in Lohit district of Arunachal Pradesh. Sage Parasurama atoned for his matricide at this kund and hence it is considered holy by the Hindus who regularly congregate there for a dip on the 14th of January to wipe out their sins.

How did parashuram get his Shivadhanusu? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 59.96.106.41 (talk) 07:20, 21 September 2007 (UTC)

There is a Parashurama Temple in Nanjangudu near Mysore in Karnataka
There is a Parashurama temple in nanjangudu near Mysore. The legend goes that Parashurama cleansed his axe off blood after killing his mother in the sangam of rivers Kapila, Kaundinya & Suvarnavathy. Then his body was covered with lot of deseases & was unable to take grip of anything. He then meditated there to please Load shiva to get rid of his sins.

The following I picked from "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanjangud" I feel this should be mentioned under this category aswell. It is said that Parashurama got immense peace of mind at this place which he did not get anywhere else. So he decided to make a penance at the place where Nanjundeshwara temple presently exists. At that time, only Adi Keshava Temple existed (which is now by the side of main-shrine). While cleaning up the place with his axe, he accidentally hit the head of Lord Shiva, who was performing penance underground. Blood started flowing and Parushurama was frightened to have committed another sin. Then Lord Shiva consoled him not to worry and build a temple of his, adjacent to Adi Keshava's. Lord Shiva also told Parashurama to perform penance at Nanjangud. Parashurama performed at the place where his temple presently is located. Lord Shiva was then immensely happy with it and gave blessings that those who visit Nanjangud should definitely visit Parashurama temple to complete their piligrimage effectively and fruitfully.

It is believed that anyone who lets Jaggery block and Crystal salt dissolve in Suvarnavathy river in front of Parushurama Temple, all ill-effects and sins committed by them will be solved slowly and permanently just as the way Jaggery and Salt dissolve in water. This is believed to be so because Lord Parashurama himself cleansed his sin of beheading his mother, which can be considered as the most punishable act. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.16.150.2 (talk) 09:57, 26 June 2008 (UTC)

Sin from Beheading of own mother can not be cleansed ever whatever the person may do. It is not about the punishment to the doer, but the message passed to the upcoming generations. Vekramaditya (talk) 10:16, 18 September 2010 (UTC)

Ramasura
In Cambodian and Siamese (Thailand) mythology, Ramasura is an axe-wielding ogre (yaksha), infamous for chasing Manimekhala for her crystal ball. He also appears in the local version of the Ramayana where he slams Arjuna into a mountain (Kailasa?) and killing Arjuna. I have a strong feeling that Ramasura is the Cambodian and Siamese portrayal of Parashurama. Should that be explained in this article, or should a new article titled Ramasura be created? Ramasun in Thai, Reamsor in Khmer. --Dara (talk) 06:48, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

In Kerala ParasuRama has one more different story
Parasu Rama was born to Brahmin father and Kshatriya mother. He has done his martial academics from Agasthya Rishi. He began to utilize his warrior abilities against kings with reason. Where ever he went he won the battle because of his expertise in weapons, except the south part of Kerala. At Thiruvananthapuram, he has been defeated and captured by Pallichal Pillai warriors taking care not to bleed any drop of blood of a Brahmin - there are two great houses with name vilangaruthala and Kottaamam still today. Vilangaruthala means "vilangu-handcuff", "aruthala - has broken", he was again captured by the nair family at Kottaamam and they fastened him with a rope made with 'hay'. "Katta" means rope made from haystack and "aamam means handcuff". After this again Parasu Rama was released - as he was Brahmin, nairs were not able to execute or punish Parasu Rama. Again in far south of Kerala after 12 kms from Pallichal, the places (1).Dhanuvachapuram, (2).Vaalvachakoshtam, (3).Parasuvaykal (4).Idichakkaplamoodu (5).and another Kottaamam again are there even today as main centers and educational institutions. Around these places, the warriors from Kurunkutti Nair family has obstructed him again. After heavy struggle, the nair warriors snatched his Dhanu (dhanu - the weapon bow) at Dhanuvachapuram, he again has been released because of being Brahmin. He made fight challenges at the place Valvachakoshtam, the in-land warriors snatched his sword at that place(vaal-sword, vacha-surrendered, koshtam-place). Parasu Rama came back to a nearby place to Dhanuvachapuram, called "Idichakkaplamoodu" at that place Nair warriors captured him and beaten with idichakka (a kind of small jackfruit, it has thorns but it will not cause bleeding). After these much events Nair lords convinced Parasu Rama to surrender by himself and there he surrendered his master weapon "Parasu The Great Axe", this place is known as "ParasuVaykal." Parasu means Axe and Vaykal means surrendering. All the above mentioned places are existing and are well known Nair dominant areas in Thiruvananthapuram. Countable reasonablenesses are following: 1.Nairs are also having the proficiency in martial arts directly from Agasthya Rishi, 2.Nairs are very sensitive to their relationship with mother and Parasu Rama was known for his matricide. Upto the period of enactment of Land Reforms act, general transfer of property and inheritance laws for Hindu communities, Nairs were following strict matriarchial family system and matrilineal inheritance.

For this beings evrything is possible. Those are beyond evrything. Its only a detail but it was the 16 inkarnation of Vishnu. The highest being, inmortal in this universe.

He is said to be in hiding and waiting for the end of days to reemerge and teach Kalki celestial weaponry. In all likelihood, he has probable already googled himself and read his own Wikipedia page. I suspect may also be a contributor to the site, based on certain editor's speedy deletion patterns. Parsh (talk) 14:48, 20 November 2012 (UTC)

"KK, just a question. How does he still live on Earth today? Mayukhers112 16:47, 1 July 2006 (UTC"

Changing the Drona story
I went back to the Mahabharata to clarify the recent edits someone made on the Drona story. This is from pp 159-160 of the Mahabharata in the references section:

""O king, it was about this time that Drona heard that the illustrious Brahmana Jamadagnya, that slayer of foes, that foremost one among all wielders of weapons, versed in all kinds of knowledge, had expressed a desire of giving away all his wealth to Brahmanas. Having heard of Rama's knowledge of arms and of his celestial weapons also, Drona set his heart upon them as also upon the knowledge of morality that Rama possessed. Then Drona of mighty arms, endued with high ascetic virtues, accompanied by disciples who were all devoted to vows ascetic austerities, set out for the Mahendra mountains. Arrived at Mahendra, the son of Bharadwaja possessed of high ascetic merit, beheld the son of Bhrigu, the exterminator of all foes, endued with great patience and with mind under complete control. Then, approaching with his disciples that scion of the Bhrigu race Drona, giving him his name, told him of his birth in the line of Angiras. And touching the ground with his head, he worshipped Rama's feet. And beholding the illustrious son of Jamadagni intent upon retiring into the woods after having given away all his wealth, Drona said, 'Know me to have sprung from Bharadwaja, but not in any woman's womb! '''I am a Brahmana of high birth, Drona by name, come to thee with the desire of obtaining thy wealth.' '''"

- Veda Vyasa (2010-12-26). The Mahabharata (p. 159-160). . Kindle Edition.

So clearly I was incorrect about him wearing a disguise. He approached as an ascetic, as that was his true role, my mistake.

However, to address the second point:

""On hearing him, that illustrious grinder of the Kshatriya race replied, Thou art welcome, O best of regenerate ones! Tell me what thou desirest. Thus addressed by Rama, the son of Bharadwaja replied unto that foremost of all smiters, desirous of giving away the whole of his wealth, 'O thou of multifarious vows, I am a candidate for thy eternal wealth,' 'O thou of ascetic wealth, returned Rama, 'My gold and whatever other wealth I had, have all been given away unto Brahmanas! This earth also, to the verge of the sea, decked with towns and cities, as with a garland of flowers, I have given unto Kasyapa. I have now my body only and my various valuable weapons left. I am prepared to give either my body or my weapons. Say, which thou wouldst have! I would give it thee! Say quickly!' "Drona answered, O son of Bhrigu, it behoveth thee to give me all thy weapons together with the mysteries of hurling and recalling them.' "Saying, 'So be it,' the son of Bhrigu gave all his weapons unto Drona,--indeed, the whole science of arms with its rules and mysteries. Accepting them all, and thinking himself amply rewarded that best of Brahmanas then, glad at heart, set out, for (the city of) his friend Drupada.'""

- Veda Vyasa (2010-12-26). The Mahabharata (pp. 160-161). . Kindle Edition.

So he did not teach him dharma as well, at least as my version of the Mahabharata reports it. If there is a better or more accurate reference please advise, otherwise I will amend the article appropriately. Parsh (talk) 07:08, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

One way I could see it being interpreted as dharma would be the following sentence from p 159: "Drona set his heart upon them as also upon the knowledge of morality that Rama possessed."

What Parashuram actually gives him is: 'So be it,' the son of Bhrigu gave all his weapons unto Drona,--indeed, the whole science of arms with its rules and mysteries.

 * "Genocide of the Brighu and the sacred calf" does not record the fact that he spared some Kshatryas, including ancestors of Rama.
 * The ending of the sixth avatar (Vishnu's essence leaving Parashurama) is not mentioned in Shiva's Bow.


 * There are many short sections, which should merged together. WP:LAYOUT discourages short sections.

 * Thank you, this is helpful. I looked at the thing about sparing some Kshatriya, and I found a kind of disturbing verse from the Mahabharata about how "All the dead Kshatriya's wives had to go to Brahmins after the genocide, and that's how a new generation of Kshatriyas was created" .. is this what you're referring to? I can insert the quote if needed. I will respond to the rest shortly as well. Again thanks for the feedback.Parsh (talk) 18:39, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
 * There are views that though this reflects a historical struggle, destruction of "all" kshatriyas is an overstatement. There are sources which he battled/destroyed Kshtriyas (not all, only those he encountered) 21 times. There are tales that he spared some virtuous kings and kshatriya children. -- Redtigerxyz Talk 16:25, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
 * ✅ Fixed.
 * I couldn't find the specific verse describing Vishnu's essence leaving Parashurama, but you're right I do remember that component of the story. I will try and find it.
 * As per Vettam Mani (Puranic encyclopaedia), Chapter 99, Vana Parva has this. I think Ramayana also has it. -- Redtigerxyz Talk 16:25, 26 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Puranic encyclopedia is awesome, and free online, thanks. Ramwithaxe (talk) 03:12, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
 * ✅ changed section
 * Most of the bal vikas is redundant to other references. Agreed it is weak.
 * ✅ updated with better reference
 * Not sure how to consolidate sections, will think on it. Parsh (talk) 18:55, 25 November 2012 (UTC)
 * ✅ Have consolidated sections, moved place of birth to the beginning of article as suggested, fixed spelling errors. Will fill in other cracks soon.Ramwithaxe (talk) 17:50, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

death Parashuram is of very angry nature. Once there was a war between Brahmins and Kshatriyas, in which Brahmins lose. For taking its revenge, Parashurama killed lakhs of Kshatriyas.
