VIJAYAWADA |
|
|
| The wild boar came
to the side of Arjuna, and Arjuna being a great warrior, took up his bow, and shot it with
a single arrow. At the same time, Lord Siva who was following it also shot it with an
arrow, and being struck by both the arrows, the boar fell down dead in the middle. Both
the Lord and Arjuna claimed the boar as their kill, and a -controversy arose between them,
as to whom the boar should belong. Words led to physical quarrel shortly, and the Lord and
Arjuna began to wrestle with each other. An experienced and powerful wrestler though he
was, Arjuna was no match before the Lord himself, and was soon exhausted. Even in the
midst of that desperate struggle, he never lost his one-pointedness of mind and devotion
to the Lord. |
