1-Birth of Vaitaal-2
The
prostitute agreed. She dressed herself nicely and came to the place where that Tapaswee was hanging
upside down from the tree. She found that the Sanyaasee was really not
eating anything and lived only drinking smoke. She started serving him
with devotion. She cooked various kinds of food and fed him. One day he
asked her - "Where is your home?" She said, "I live
nearby." He left his Tap, went to her house, and started living with her.
Later they started living as husband and wife. After a while they had a
child.
When that child
had become four months old, the prostitute said - "Shall we go for
pilgrimage to earn some Punya. Tapaswee agreed and all went for
pilgrimage. After a while she brought him to the king. Tapaswee was carrying
her child on his shoulder. As the king saw the prostitute, he got
surprised, and the prostitute smiled.
When
Tapaswee came to know the reality, he got so angry, that he killed the son born from the
prostitute and started his Tapasyaa again. He did not mind king
Chandrabhaan's kingdom; so your ancestors took this kingdom. Later he
killed king Chandrabhaan. Then he produced three Yogee in the same Lagn
and in the same Muhoort (Time). One of them took birth in king's house, the
second was born in Devee's house and the third one took birth in a
potter's (who makes pottery) house.
The
king is ruling now-a-days in Paataal Lok; the Yogee who took birth in
potter's house, killed the Yogee born in Devee's house. Now that Yogee
wants to kill you, so be careful from that Yogee. I just came to warn you
this."
Vikramaaditya
was just listening quietly. That Dev went away after completing his
message. After this he never had any other incident in his bedroom. He
continued to rule comfortably.
One
day a Saadhu came to him, blessed him and went away after giving him a
fruit. The king remembered that Dev's conversation, so he didn't eat that
fruit, and kept it aside. After some time that Yogee came again, blessed
him, gave him a similar fruit and went away. King again did not eat that
fruit and kept it aside. In this way that Yogee came several time and each
time, he blessed him, gave him the similar fruit and went away.
His
doubt changed into belief that he was the same Yogee who wanted to kill
him, so one day he asked his minister to cut that fruit. As he cut the
fruit, a ruby appeared from inside.
King got very surprised to see this, so he asked him to bring the other
fruits also, which he gave him before and cut each of them. There was a ruby inside each of the
fruit. King called his jeweler and asked him to price them. He told him
that those rubies were priceless. King got very surprised to hear this.
That
Yogee came again next day, the king mentioned about those rubies to him.
The Yogee replied - "Yes, It is the magic of my Yog power." The
king asked him - "Why did you give them to me?" Yogee said -
"I am doing some Yog and I have attained only one Siddhi till now, but
if you cooperate with me, I can give you a big treasure." The king
asked - "Tell me what can I do for you?"
Yogee
said - "I am doing my Tap on the banks of Krishnaa River, please come
there and help me." King agreed. He further said - "You will have to
stay with me for one night and obey me whatever I say to you and you will
come alone." "When should I come?" "On Bhaadrapad
Krishn Chaturdashee." "OK."
When
the said day came, king went to that Yogee with his sword. Yogee was
waiting for him. Although Vikram was very courageous and daring, still the
scene of the cremation ground was frightening him. All around that Yogee
were the howling noises of ghosts, vampires and creatures of night. Yogee became very happy
to see the king.
