________________ IP सोलहवाँ अध्ययन : अमरकंका (726) S 5 ARRIVAL OF NARAD 133. At that time the Narad (a class of divine sage) named Kacchul arrived there. He appeared to be very sober and humble but his love for frolic made him crooked. He followed the middle path and his followers loved his 5 presence. He had a charming personality and was wearing a single length of cloth wrapped around his body. His torso was covered by a dark deer-skin. He cl carried a gourd-bowl and a stick in his hands. His long hair, spiraled around 9 in a lump over his head, appeared like a crown. As adornments he had a 5 Yajnopaveet (the loosely entwined cotton string generally worn across the 5 body by Brahmans), a string of Rudraksh beads, a girdle of coconut fibre, and mats made of bark-fibres. He carried the Kacchapi Veena (a Sitar-like > stringed instrument) in his hand because he loved music. He seldom walked S B on the ground. 5 He was very famous for the numerous divine powers he possessed; these included—Sancharani (transporting), Avarani (camouflaging), Avatarni S (descending), Utpatani (ascending and flying), Shleshni (attaching), S Sankramani (entering other bodies), Abhiyogini (making precious metals), a 5 Prajnapti (telepathy), Gamani (going to impenetrable places), Stambhini 15 (making things immobile), and many others. Baldev and Krishna loved him. Thirty five million Yadav princes 5 including Pradyumna, Pradeep, Samb, Aniruddh, Nishadh, Unmukh, Saran, a 5 Gajasukumal, Sumukh, and Durmukh liked and praised him. He loved conflict, war, and adventure. He desired to speak like a clown. He enjoyed S watching battles and other conflicts. He cunningly looked around for the ] scope of dispute and acted as a catalyst to increase tension and trigger 5 conflict. He was the source of delusion among the Dashar braves. Invoking the divine Prakramani power that enabled flying, Narad took off B and while flying enjoyed the panoramic view of the earth dotted with thousands of villages, quarries, cities, kraals, ghettos, boroughs, river-port cities, port cities, and hill-stations crowded with multitudes of people. came to Hastinapur and landed in the palace of King Pandu. __ सूत्र १३४ : तए णं से पंडुराया कच्छुल्लनारयं एज्जमाणं पासइ, पासित्ता पंचहिं पंडवेहिट र कुंतीए य देवीए सद्धिं आसणाओ अब्भुढेइ, अब्भुट्टित्ता कच्छुल्लनारयं सत्तट्ठपयाई पच्चुग्गच्छइ, डा 15 पच्चुग्गच्छित्ता आसणेणं उवणिमंतेइ। PTER-16 : AMARKANKA ( 227) vrvirrurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Jain Education International For Private & Personal Use Only www.jainelibrary.org
