<strong>H<strong>in</strong>duism</strong>: <strong>What</strong> <strong>Really</strong> Happened <strong>in</strong> <strong>India</strong> – M. M. N<strong>in</strong>an<br />

mank<strong>in</strong>d, what is s<strong>in</strong> and what is not s<strong>in</strong>; what is to be done and what is<br />

not to be done; what is wrong and what is right. To those human be<strong>in</strong>gs,<br />

who accept his advises and obey his orders, he offers prosperity and<br />

peace <strong>in</strong> this worldly life and salvation at the time of their death. And<br />

be<strong>in</strong>g the completion of his venture to redeem mank<strong>in</strong>d from s<strong>in</strong>, he gets<br />

sacrificed at the end his specified period on earth.<br />

In verse 7 chapter 90 of the 10th book of the Rigveda, the sacrifice of<br />

Prajapathy the Son of God, is well expla<strong>in</strong>ed.<br />

“At the time of sacrifice, the son of God will be tightly tied to a wooden<br />

sacrificial post us<strong>in</strong>g iron nails by hands and legs, he will bleed to death<br />

and on the third day he will rega<strong>in</strong> his life <strong>in</strong> a resurrection.” Evidently,<br />

none of the avatars meets this description. Nor are they expect<strong>in</strong>g<br />

another <strong>in</strong>carnation, which will fit the description and attributes. The<br />

attributes of Prajapathy are given <strong>in</strong> the Rig-Veda and as <strong>in</strong> Sathapadha<br />

Brahmana, a supplement to Yajurveda. The next avatar is Kalki who is<br />

simply the destroyer.<br />

Let us start from the beg<strong>in</strong>n<strong>in</strong>g:<br />

Isha Upanishad states:<br />

“sa paryaghachachukrama virunamsnaviram<br />

shudhhama papavittham kavirmanishi :<br />

paribhur swayambhur yadhatha ityadhorthan<br />

viyadhadhacha chiviyaha samabhyaha”<br />

A self realized person visualizes that supreme personality of God head<br />

as<br />

(1) paryagathaha – omnipresent<br />

(2) Shukramaha – omnipotent<br />

(3) akayamaha – hav<strong>in</strong>g no phenomenal body<br />

(4) avranamaha – <strong>in</strong> this person there are no imperfections that of gross<br />

physical body<br />

(5) Asnaviramaha – without any ve<strong>in</strong> (his actions do not depend upon the<br />

ve<strong>in</strong>s for emulation of blood to the limbs of his body which is perfect on<br />

his own accord, <strong>in</strong> other words no blood <strong>in</strong> his ve<strong>in</strong>s)<br />

(6) shukthamaha – he is pure, perfect, no impurity
