White Vishwamitra and Trisanku-2

Since Trisanku could not give a convincing reply, he was chased out of the premises. Horrified at his state, yet still holding on to his demand of leaving the earth in his human form, Trisanku went to Sage Vishwamitra. Sage Vishwamitra was Vasishta's arch-rival. He agreed to help Trisanku. I will organize a great sacrifice and make the Gods accept Trisanku in heaven! declared the sage.
By this yagna, the Gods in heavens would respond and come to the sage and agree to his requests. Unfortunately, things did not go exactly the way they were being planned.
"We cannot respond to sage Vishwamitra's demand to take an unclean human body into the heavens! This is unheard of! decided the Gods. So, Sage Vishwamitra prayed in vain. No one responded to his efforts. How dare they ignore me thus! fumed Vishwamitra.
But who cares! With the power of my penance, I will have my way!!
Having said this, Vishwamitra commanded Trisanku to rise to heaven. The energy generated by Vishwamitra's penance swept Trisanku up into the sky, to the very threshold of heaven. Every time Trisanku tried to enter the gates of the heaven, the Gods pushed him away! Things came to head when Indra, the keeper of the skies, pushed Trisanku's body out of the gates of heaven.
Trisanku hurtled down to earth. Trisanku would have died instantly on hitting the ground, had he not been saved by Vishwamitra.
"Stop! Vishwamitra with his magic, froze Trisanku midway between the earth and heavens. "Ha! I will create my own Heaven and Trisanku will be there! So Vishwamitra created the Trisanku Swarga! That is a parallel heaven! In fact in western astronomy, this is known as the constellation Southern Cross, consisting of four stars!
Now the Gods were terrified of Vishwamitra's powers as he was studying to go further; to create not just stars but a whole new race of Gods.
The terrified Gods asked the holy sage of the skies, Brihaspati, to intervene. Brihaspati asked Vishwamitra to stop this madness and not to disturb the laws of nature. And the fall out of this interruption was that Trisanku did not enjoy Trisanku Swarga! He hung between heaven and earth; Thus, he was fated to remain fixed in the sky and was transformed into a constellation.

White Vishwamitra & Trisanku

Trisanku was the king of the lunar dynasty in ancient India. One day, King Trisanku came to his Guru Vasishta and pledged "Guru Vasishta, I want to leave this earth, not as a soul, but in my human body! Guru Vasishta exclaimed incredulously, "That is impossible! I cannot help you. That is unholy and blasphemous.
King Trisanku begged him but Vasishta refused to listen or help. But king Trisanku was not the one to give up so easily.
I will approach Vasishta's hundred sons and put forth my request, said the king to himself. How dare you come to us with your demands when our father has already refused your preposterous plea!
The sons were so enraged that they cursed King Trisanku to become an untouchable. The next morning, when the king woke up, he was totally misshapen and deformed. His jewels and ornaments had turned into bones and fragments of skulls. "Oh no! What has happened to me! King Trisanku cried when he saw his image. "Who are you? Where is the king? Thundered the courtier of the royal bed chambers when he chanced upon the king.

White Nala and Damyanti -3

Midway, he was stopped by the Gods Indra, Varun, Yama and Agni, the Gods of thunder, water, death and fire respectively. "Hark! Young lad, wait and listen to us," they demanded.
Let me go, I have an important place to reach, Nala requested. But the Gods insisted that he listen to them. Finally, Nala relented.
We order you to reach Damyanti's chambers and ask her to garland one of us as her husband! After all, when we Gods are there, why would she want to choose a mortal? Nala's heart sank. He knew that the Gods were very powerful and he could not challenge their divine force.
But, how do I reach her chambers. I have no access! Nala dithered.
"Whooosh! He was immediately transported to Damyanti's rooms. Damyanti at once recognised Nala.
After explaining to Damyanti about his unscheduled arrival, Nala told her everything that transpired between him and the Gods.
You did the right thing by obeying the Gods and delivering their message. Now do not worry! I will think of something and it will be only you who I will choose to be my husband!
Finally, the day of the swayamvara came! Princes and kings from far and wide gathered at Damyanti's father's court!
Nala was there too! So were the four Gods! Even though, Nala tried to avoid the Gods, they deliberately sat next to him! Damyanti entered the hall holding a garland. Her glance searched for Nala but to her horror, she saw not just one Nala but five; the four Gods had disguised themselves as Nala.
It is the Gods playing a trick! she understood. But now how would Damyanti recognize the real Nala? Damyanti stared closely!
Ohh, I know who Nala is; her heart sang. How did Damyanti recognise the real Nala out of the other four lookalikes? Well, the four imposters stared at her with unblinking eyes, the very characteristics of Gods, while the fifth was blinking away humanly!
Jubilantly, she garlanded the fifth person.
"Very sharp of you, Damyanti! You deserve to be married to Nala  smiled the four Gods assuming their true forms! They blessed the couple and returned to heaven. Nala and Damyanti were married and were ever grateful to the swan who helped them.

White Nala and Damyanti -2

Now, in the royal Lakes, lived a flock of swans. They watched dismayed as the young king went to pieces over Damyanti in front of them. Finally, unable to witness this, the leader of the swans approached the king and asked, Sire, what troubles you so? Hearing the swan's sympathetic tone, Nala poured his heart out. He told the swan about his love for Damyanti and the delay in the swayamvara.
That is all! the swan reacted gleefully. Nala looked on as the swan added, "King Nala, I will help you! I am a bird! with the help of my wings, I will fly to Damyanti and carry your message of love! The king gladly allowed this and the swan flew off.
When the swan returned, be had wonderful news for Nala. Sire, Damyanti too has heard of you and is equally enamoured! She has promised to influence her father for a swayamvara soon!
Since  Damyanti could not directly tell her father, as it was improper, she pretended to look unwell and glum! Alarmed, her parents immediately ordered the royal physiciansto find out what was troubling their child; The doctors found nothing wrong and the parents caught the hint. They realized that their daughter had now grown up and it was time for her to get married! So, a swayamvara was announced and Nala cheerfully left for Damyanti's father's kingdom.

White Nala and Damyanti - 1

Once a Brahmin came to meet King Nala. "Tell me, what is it that you want, dear brahmin?" King Nala asked. "Sire, you are unmarried and need a bride. I have a suggestion to make." Nala listened with great interest as the Brahmin informed him about a beautiful princess called Damyanti, who was eligible for marriage. Her beauty surpasses all imagination! Her poise and bearing is stamped with royalty. As the Brahmin went on, Nala was smitten. He restless waited for Damyanti's father to announce a swayamvara for his daughter.
Swayamvara was an ancient tradition where a girl had the right to choose her husband from a group of suitors asking for her hand in marriage! So, Nala waited patiently for a swayamvara.
But no swayamvara was broadcasted! It never occurred to Damyanti's parents that their daughter was of marriageable age! Nala impatiently asked his courtier time and again, Has Damyanti's father publicized the swayamvar yet? The courtiers would shake their heads saying no and Nala would plunge into depression!
Nala was so eager to see Damyanti that he began to neglect his state duties and pined waiting for the swayamvara to happen!

The Demon Brothers

Once upon a time there were
Sunda and Upasunda were demon brothers. These demon brothers were so powerful that they managed to overthrow the Gods and chase them out of their heavenly city.
We have to do something! the Gods complained amongst each other.
"There is nothing we can do! cried one of the Gods helplessly.
"Why? asked another one. These brothers have a boon that they will only be killed if one kills the other! No one else can harm them, let alone kill them!
Seeing their love 💝 for each other, the chances of that seem non-existent, answerd Indra, the king of Gods. Finally, they approached Brahma with a petition against the demon duo! Brahma mused, then said, I have got it. Get the celestial architect Vishwakarma to me; Brahma instructed.
Brahma instructed Vishwakarma, Lord Architect, I need you to make an "Apsara" so beautiful that it should be one of your best pieces of work! Vishwakarma did not disappoint him. He presented Brahma with a ravishing Apsara. Brahma breathed life into the Apsara and called her 'Tilottama'.
