The Sage Who Drank the Ocean, Moved a Mountain, and Balanced the Earth | The World-Saving Missions of Sage Agastya
Our Puranas are filled with many knowledgeable and powerful saints and sages. But there is one sage who holds an especially hallowed place in the scriptures: Sage Agastya! In this captivating episode, Madhuri Amma describes the life-story of this great Sage and explains why he is so revered in Hinduism.
We get to learn about many awe-inspiring feats Sage Agastya accomplished at the request of the Gods, and why he was uniquely qualified to perform these feats. They include:
How he drank the Ocean
How he moved the Mountain Vindhya
How he helped to balance the Earth when Lord Shiva and His Beloved, Goddess Parvathi, were getting married
Sage Agastya’s marriage to a princess and rishika named Lopamudra. Find out some incredible accomplishments that this couple are together known for!
How did he come to become the Guru for all Siddhars (Siddha medical practitioners), as well as the Divinely-appointed steward for the Tamil language?
The episode concludes with a deep dive into one of the many temples where Sage Agastya installed a Lingam: the Chengannur Bhagavathy Temple in Kerala. Listen along to learn about a very special celebration called Thriputharaatu that happens at this Temple, in honor of the Goddess menstruating! Madhuri Amma explains the rich history behind this festival, from ancient times through the colonial period, to its modern-day form.
We hope you enjoy this episode!
