Kamalanayani – an Untold Character of the Great Epic. (Episode 16)

Rajkumar Abhimanyu was questioned by everyone about the reason why he went to the forest and why Kamala was pierced by glass pieces??

He said “It is a long story…”. He was about to commence the story of what happened by Kamala signaled him no with her eyes. He was not sure. She was continuously signaling him no. Then, he said, “Mata, actually what happened was..”. Kamala did not know what to do but again signaled him No… He continued with a smile “Actually, I had a feel that, she was in danger… But I don’t know why, but I felt something bad… My feeling was up to a limit that, I could not come to you and get permission… That’s why I had to leave immediately.. I am sorry for that Mata…”

Mata Rukmani said, “No issues, anyway … You have saved my daughter.. But what happened to her..?”. Rajkumar Abhimanyu looked at Kamala with a corner-eye… She was sitting tightly on her bed without knowing what to do with a wide eye… and she gulped.. He said “When I reached there, I found her on the ground and had lost blood from her feet. So I took her back to the palace… But I don’t know the reason behind it…”. Kamala felt quiet safe… Just then, everyone’s question arrows targeted her…

She said “I got the boon from Mata MahaGauri as my tapasya was complete”. Rajkumari Padmavadhani asked her “Did you get the Dharshan of the Jaganmata, Didi ??”. Kamala said “Yes, I did and she hugged me by saying Putri… and blessed me with the boon that I asked for..”. “Wow, Pithashree.. Kindly allow me to go to the jungle and I want to see the Jaganmata..” said Rajkumari Padmavadhani… Everyone laughed.. But Lord Krishna said “No need for that, Putri… Every woman on this Earth is an incarnation of Jaganmata Adishakti… The simple way to get her Dharshan is to respect other women…”.

Rajkumar Abhimanyu remembered the sight of Devi Kamalanayani’s true form sitting on Veera… He asked Lord Krishna that “Mamashri, in that case, do you mean that, all women have some divine shakti form inside them..?? And they use it when the time comes..”. Lord Krishna objected his word and replied him with a smile that “Dear Abhimanyu, It is not like every woman is hiding some shakti inside her, but she is the shakti herself… The best example is your mother and my dearest sister – Subhadra.. As you know, she is Yogmaya herself… She came to this Earth in a human form to perform her karmas… Each shakti will take any form, human or animal but, will descend on the Earth to perform its Karmas.. Once completed, it will go back to its origin… We call it the cycle of Atma but sometimes some shaktis other than Jeevatma come to the Earth not only for their Karma but for the benefit of the Universe…”

He understood the point of Lord Krishna’s explanation.

Then, everyone forgot their question and Kamala felt cool. Everyone dispersed except Lord Krishna and Rajkumar Abhimanyu… Lord Krishna said, “Take rest Kamala, I will come to meet you personally tonight..”. She asked him about the pooja this evening… But he replied.. “We all will take care… and you take rest…”. He also ordered Chandrika not to allow her to walk for a week…

Rajkumar Abhimanyu was in thoughts… and left with Lord Krishna… but he was seeing Kamala who simply smiled at him…

Chandrika was so happy that her Rajkumari and her best friend returned to the palace…. She said “You could have been a little more careful..”. But Kamala replied “I had to do it, to save my Swami…”. Chandrika could not understand anything and said “What ???”.

Kamala asked all other maids to leave. She then asked Chandrika to close her eyes and her mouth.. When she said “Open only your eyes not your mouth..”… Chandrika was shocked to see a Cheetah in their room. She was about to shout but Kamala closed her mouth tightly.. She said “He is my friend.. His name is Veera…”. It took much time for Kamala to console Chandrika and make her believe that Veera is not harmful..

Then, she explained the happenings to her in detail… After hearing the story, she asked Kamala “Kumari, who are you in reality… I cannot understand…”. Kamala told her “Promise me that you will never reveal it to anyone else…” and Chandrika promised… Kamala then showed her Divya-dharshan, sitting on Veera.. Chandrika cannot believe her own eyes…

Rajkumar Abhimanyu who came to meet Mata Subhadra, peaked into Kamala’s door and saw some radiance coming from her room… He wanted to know her secret, so he continued to peak..

Then, Kamala said “Look at me carefully, Chandrika… I am not the yuvrani of Dvaraka now… I am… Devi Kamalanayani… I was not born from a womb of any woman but directly from the Tapo-shakti of Tridev for 1000 years… My father is Lord Krishna in this human form but my Atma-Pithashree are Tridev themselves… Madav, Mahadev and Brahmadev… My name Kamalanayani does not only mean ‘the lotus-eyed girl’ but also ‘Ka – Kailashnath (Lord Shiva), mal -Malavan (Lord Vishnu) and ayan – Lord Brahma’. This name was given to me by Mata Gayatri herself…”. Chandrika (inside the room) and Rajkumar Abhimanyu (peaking from the door) were speechless…

She added “My birth had the conjunction of Mata Bhumidevi’s powers and was blessed by Mata Adishakti… that’s why I am born for her wish to Mata Satyabhama – Bhudevi, herself… And, this Cheetah is called as Veera created and gifted to me as Vaahan by Mata Bhumidevi…”

Kamala added that “My birth reason was to destroy an Asura called Krithvaangaasura, who got a boon from Tridev that a girl who was born out their Tapasya for 1000 years could only kill him… That’s why I was created… I slayed him.. and after that I lived in Kailash, Vaikuntha and Brahma loka… One day, Lord Vishnu asked me to incarnate as his daughter in his Krishna avatar to complete my next motive…”

Kamala got back to her human form and Veera to that of a cat. Chandrika asked Kamala “What is the reason behind your birth in this yuga, Kumari..”. Kamala smiled and replied “Vivaah!”. “I am sorry to ask.. but why did you had to do this tapasya towards Mata Mahagauri and what boon did she give you…”.

Kamala replied ” The boon that I asked Mata Mahagauri is that ‘My husband should be the best warrior in the World and good hearted. He must perform his Karmas and follow the right path but to any extent to save Dharma. He may or may not be a ruler of any kingdom but he must be the ruler of her heart. And finally, Tridev must perform the protocols of my marriage, as it is their duty towards their daughter…'”

“Did she bless you with this boon ?” asked Chandrika… “Yes.. And she showed me who he is…” said Kamala with pride.. Chandrika asked “Who is he ??” with lots of curiosity. “Mata MahaGauri showed me that, the ruler of my heart – My Swami is none other than… Rajkumar Abhimanyu…” said Kamala with love-filled eyes… Excited Chandrika said “Really ??”. Kamala nodded and said “After knowing the same, how can I stand back… That’s why I did not consider about my feet being pierced by glass or loosing blood… Nothing was in my mind, other than protecting my Swami and killing Pratikaasura who is the son of Krithvaangasura… And according to Mata MahaGauri’s words, I must have to confirm that he is my Swami before I come out of the ring and I did it… If I did not choose to drop a feeble amount of my blood, then I might have to drop only tears out of my eyes forever… These are not wounds but it represents that I will be his shield, every moment… But I don’t know about How I am going to convince him this time… I am worried so much Chandrika…” . Chandrika patted her shoulders…

After hearing this, Rajkumar Abhimanyu thought “You don’t have to Kamalanayani” and went back to his room with teary eyes.. He was unable to tolerate his anger on himself… He realized his mistake and felt too much guilty that he had mocked at the character of Tridev’s daughter and how he is gonna get rid of this Paap.. But even after he said those words, she loves me and had got boon from Mata MahaGauri to get him as her husband… I must apologize her…
