Dear Sri Madhavakkannan Prabhu, Hare Krishna. Please accept my dandavat pranams. I read some of your postings on Markandeya Maharishi's pastime with Lord Shiva and how Vishnu sarvottamatvam is established. Generally, the popular story is one in which Markandeya Muni worships the Shivalinga and when Yamaraja comes to take his life, Lord Shiva comes out of the linga and kicks Yamaraja and protects the sage thus bestowing the status of siranjiva on him. We also hear of Markandeya Muni in the 12th canto of the Srimad Bhagavatam where he gets the blessings of Lord Shiva and obtains darshan of the Lord at the time of pralayam as Baby Krishna on the leaf (Aalilai Kannan). We would like to hear more nectar from you in this connection. Is there any pastime linking Vishnu's supremacy and role to Lord Shiva's protecting Markandeya Muni ? Where does this theme come up in Naalaayiram ? And are there any puranic references for this ? Thanking you in advance, dasan r. jai simman singapore __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
