[edit] Commentary
- 1 kapaTa nATaka sUtra dhAra - The five-fold activity (paJca kRtya) of the Supreme Lord – projection – sustenance – infolding – hiding – grace – are considered as a grand show (lIlA) without any apparent reason or purpose – like the laughter of a baby. Many acts of the Lord in his manifold Avatara are considered a (apparent) deception ‘kapaTa’. The following are some of the places where in SrImad-Bhagavatam, the word ‘kapaTa’ appears in describing the Lord – Book 1, Chapter 1, Verse 20 (creation); Book 8, Chapter 12, Verse 47 (Mohini). Please also read the detailed rendering of the VamanavatAra in Sri DehaLeesa Sthuthi of Swami Desikan at site– [Dehaleesa Sthuti]
- Lord’s bestows grace, by deception, on Muchukunda – Son of King Mandhata of Ikshvaku dynasty - the story in brief is available in the website – [Muchukunda] (If the site does not open, pleas go to [Urday] and search for Mythological Tales and select ‘Muchukunda’.)
- The full story of Muchukunda is contained in Srimad Bhagavatam, Book 10, Chapter 50. It is also stated that Muchukunda was a devotee of Lord Siva. Please visit website to know more about Vidanga Sthalams – temples of Lord Siva – Thiruvarur is one such Vidanga sthalam.[Vidanga Sthalam]
