MANTRALAYA MAHAKSHETRA

BEGINNING OF MIRACLES

It so happened that once he went to the marriage function of a wealthy man. There, by mistake he was asked to make sandal paste by the purohit. He did. When the guests applied it to their bodies, as it was the custom of those days, they experienced burning sensation all over and abused the purohit. On enquiry, Venkata Bhatta explained that he made the paste chanting Agnisukta, a part of the Vedas. And volunteered to make it again. This time he did reciting Varunasukta. It gave a soothing - ice-cool effect on the bodies when applied. The whole congregation wondered at his divine powers, and high scholarship. A miracle of miracles! He was given hundred varahas as dakshina on that day by the wealthy man. Will it feed eternally?
