![]() On realizing that Maharishi had hit him with his foot, Lord asked him, “Maharishi, are you hurt in your foot? My chest is strong but your foot is not so strong". Lord Vishnu got up after the strike and realized what had happened. On seeing no reaction from Lord, Maharishi hit Lord Vishnu on his chest (that strike by Maharishi Bhrigu left a foot print on Lord's chest and that foot print is known as "Shri Vatsa"). Maharishi asked him to wake up, but Lord was in deep sleep. He entered the Dhama without Lord Vishnu's permission and saw that the Lord was resting at that time. Then in order to test Lord Vishnu, Maharishi reached Vaikunth Dhama. (We however have a statue form of lord Shiva in Kashi (Maha Mrityunjaya Temple) said to be over 400 years old.) Bhrigu curses Lord Shiva to be only worshipped in Linga form. On reaching Kailash Parvat, Nandi stopped him from going inside because at that time, Shiva and Parvathi were sporting fun. Maharishi Bhrigu then decided to visit Lord Shiva at Kailash Parvata. To this day, there are very few temples devoted to Lord Brahma (the notable exception being the Brahma Temple at Pushkar). Angry with disrespect, Maharishi Bhrigu cursed Lord Brahma that no one will worship Brahma in Kaliyuga. Lord Brahma got angry and wanted to punish Maharishi but Maha Saraswati, wife of Lord Brahma saved Maharishi from his anger. On reaching Brahmalok Maharishi displayed utter disrespect to Lord Brahma on purpose. He went on to see Lord Brahma in Brahmaloka. Upon being entrusted with the task Maharishi Bhrigu decided to test Lord Brahma first. With the consent of all the great saints present there, it was decided that Maharishi Bhrigu will test and decide who was pre-eminent. All the great saints and sages could not decide that out of the Trinity Lord Vishnu, Brahma and Shiv who is pre-eminent and to whom should they offer Pradhanta (Master) of that yagya. Many great sages gathered at the bank of river Sarasvati to participate in Maha yagya organized at that time. Devotees visiting Maruderi are given Herbal medicine and food during this period. ![]() This place is known as Shri Bhrigu Arul Nilayam The Rohini star of Dhanur month is celebrated here. " Bharuch",Swami Malai, Tirumala, Ballia, Nanguneri, Thiruneermala, Mannargudi and in most of the South Indian Vishnu temples (as duo with Markendeya Rishi)Īn Ashram for Bhrigu is in Maruderi, Kanchipuram district in Tamil Nadu. His son Chyawan Rishi, known for Chyawanprash also had his Ashram at Dhosi Hill. Bhrigu and Places associated with him īhrigu's Ashram 'Deepotsak' was located near Dhosi Hill in Narnaul district in Haryana, from where he migrated to Bharuch. In the Bhagavad Gītā, Krishna says that among sages, Bhrigu is representative of the opulence of God. He supports the continuation of the Yagna of Daksha even after being warned that without an offering for Shiva, it was asking for a catastrophe for everyone present there. 2 Bhrigu and Places associated with himīhrigu finds mention in Shiva Purana and Vayu Purana, where he is shown present during the great Yagna of Daksha Prajapati (his father-in-law).One of his descendants was sage Jamadagni, who in turn was the father of sage Parshurama, considered an avatar of Vishnu. The sage Chyavana is also said to be his son through Puloma. He has one more son through Kavyamata (Usana), who is better known than Bhrigu himself – Shukra, learned sage and guru of the asuras. His daughter Sri or Bhargavi, married Vishnu ( Narayana). He had two sons by her, named Dhata and Vidhata. He was married to Khyati, the daughter of Daksha. Īs per Skanda Purana Bhrigu migrated to Bhrigukutch, modern Bharuch on the banks of Narmada river in Gujarat, leaving his senile son Chyavana at Dhosi Hill. Bhrigu had his Ashram (Hermitage) on the Vadhusar River, a tributary of the Drishadwati River near Dhosi Hill in the Vedic state of Brahmavarta, presently on the border of Haryana and Rajasthan in India Along with Manu, Bhrigu had made important contributions to ' Manusmriti', which was constituted out of a sermon to a congregation of saints in the state of Brahmavarta, after the great floods in this area, nearly 10,000 years ago. The adjectival form of the name, Bhargava, is used to refer to the descendants and the school of Bhrigu.Īccording to Manusmriti, Bhrigu was a compatriot of and lived during the time of Manu, the Hindu progenitor of humanity. Bhrigu is considered as a Manasa Putra (mind-born-son) of Brahma. Maharishi Bhrigu ( Sanskrit: Bhṛgu) was one of the seven great sages, the Saptarshis, one of the many Prajapatis (the facilitators of Creation) created by Brahma (The God of Creation), the first compiler of predictive astrology, and also the author of Bhrigu Samhita, the astrological ( Jyotish) classic. |
