FM.3073
NAARADA RETELLS THE TALE
jd:
here's a very basic question:
how
do you read the Tale of karkaTI.Crab?
I think it is a parody:
a friendly satire of similar stories with their mantras.
to call it satire is not to say it is untrue, or a malicious presentation.
it is a story that was sung before an audience
all too familiar with the heroes of the purANic stories,
as well the legends of the local gods.
karkaTI.Crab is a mockery of such local legends.
she has her mantra, just like any deity, in the form of a charm
(with its pacha.pacha.Adi).
as we have seen, she is not too bright,
not a good planner
[she knows the homer.simpson-mantra ढोः Dho:...]
karkaTI may have been some local deity
for the audience of the vAlmIka story-teller,
and he wants to make them laugh.
on a previous page I have posted a photograph of the Crab Goddess,
devised by some gameplayer,
which evidences the same sense of humor as we have here.
here she's a tapasvinI."Asceticess".
but
let nArada.Mangift continue....

thru her tapas,
Suuchii.Pin is turned.into a Pishaacha.Cannibal ;
thru That state
she becomes Karkatii.Crab
an apish mountaineer,
such are the pleasures she enjoys, Muni
.
*vlm.p.2 indra asked, "I know Suchi acquired her fiendish practice of blood sucking by means of her tapas, but who is this apish Karkati that is so greedy to gain flesh and bones?"
NAARADA.MANGIFT said–

*vlm. It is Karkatí the malevolent fiend, that became Jíva Súchí or colic pain of the living, and assumed the shape of an iron needle as its support or fulcrum.
*VA. this is living needle acquiring subtle demoniac nature, O indra, by becoming a iron needle.

wearing many garlands strewn about, with her cheek resting on the sewn garment on
the breasts of her beloved. -- This is describing her attacking a lover through
the garments. AB commentary suggests that she experienced some pleasure from
this action.
*AS. While mugdha usually means stupid, when applied to beautiful women, it
means demure, innocent, charming etc. [Like Marilyn Monroe, a dumb blonde after
she dyes her hair.jd]

*AS. In verse 18, she decides to identify with the jIva-sUcI - thus shedding her harsh nature. She acquires a stable posture and takes the form of an alert holy white mendicant jIva. In the current verse, this tApasI sUcI is being carried around by the now rarefied iron needle flowing like a wind, like an unfettered fierce horse in all directions.

*vlm.30. A man being tired by travelling far and wide, returns at last to take his rest at home; so the big and living Súchí turned to the form of the thin iron Súchí to execute her repose; but like ignorant people, who prefer the grosser pleasure of the body to the nicer delights of the soul; she still panted for her grosser enjoyments, that were now lost to her.

*vlm.48. It now behoves you, O indra! that art skilled in stratagems, to devise some plan, in order to delude her from her object, or else her devotion will destroy the people, you have so long preserved.
VASISHTHA said—

mArutam preSayAm.Asa dazA-dik-maNDalAni_atha ||3|73|49||
.
thus having heard
the report of nArada.Mangift,
mighty indra
sent the mAruta.Wind
to search.for sUchI.Pin
in all the ten directions.
iti nArada.ta: zrutvA – thus having heard from nArada.Mangift = zakra: sUcI-nirIkSiNe – shakra, when searching-for sUchI = mArutam preSayAm.Asa – sent the mAruta.Wind - dazA.diG-maNDalAny atha – in the ten directions from there.
*sv.49 VASISTHA continued: Hearing this, indra commissioned Vayu the wind-god to find out the exact spot where Sucika dwelt.
*vlm.49. Vasishtha said:--indra having heard these words of Nárada, sent Maruta (Eolus) the god of winds to her search, in all quarters of the globe.

*sv.50..67 Vayu wafted through all the different planetary systems in the universe and finally entered the earth-plane and descended upon the Himalayas where, on account of its proximity to the sun, there was no vegetation and the whole area looked like an arid desert.
*vlm.50. The god Maruta then proceeded in quest of her, in his spiritual form of intelligence; and having traversed the etherial regions, alighted upon the nether world. The winds and all other elemental and physical powers, are believed to be endued with intelligence also; and not as mere brute forces, on account of the regular discharge of their proper functions, which they could never do without intelligence. (Hence the imagination and adoration of the Marutgana in, the elemental worship of the Veda).

*VA. Her, who was all-pervasive, he (wind) saw easily by part of his fast intelligence???, without obstacle, like supreme spirit sees easily (as if smiling) with his supreme glance. Or who is SHE??? *AS. She is his perceptive power (sA tasya samvit). Still flowing in the sky, she was looking all over - for our needle!

*sv.30 She roamed freely, but when there was trouble she returned to the needle.body, as ignorant people do in times of trouble.
*vlm.30. A man being tired by travelling far and wide, returns at last to take his rest at home; so the big and living Súchí turned to the form of the thin iron Súchí to execute her repose; but like ignorant people, who prefer the grosser pleasure of the body to the nicer delights of the soul; she still panted for her grosser enjoyments, that were now lost to her.

*vlm.32. When the container is in existence, it is possible to fill it with its contents and not otherwise; so one having his body, can seek and get every pleasurable object to give it delight.

she chose a place to be alone to make her hard tapas

*vlm.p.37 Thus the vulture, bearing the unsatisfied Suchi within its body, flew to its intended spot on the mountain. It was driven there like a cloud by the wind and it was in this place that Suchi was to be released from her needle shape.

This reminds me of the usual depiction of a smell reaching the nose of a cartoon character in a directed wave(:.))
*vlm.42. Súchí issued from the body of the bird, in the manner of the spirit coming out of it, and the intellect aspiring to higher regions; and as the particles of fragrance fly upon the wings of winds, in order to meet the breath of the nostrils to be borne into the nose.

take his rest at home; so the big and living Súchí turned to the form of
the thin iron Súchí to execute her repose; but like ignorant people, who
prefer the grosser pleasure of the body to the nicer delights of the soul;
she still panted for her grosser enjoyments, that were now lost to her.

needle (sva.Amaya.sUcitvam samAzrita:), being forced by her
(nitAntapreta:), made his mind (mana upAdade) to do her bidding (sUcyA
kartum). .. Thus she infected the vulture with her desires and he deposited
her where she wanted to be.

*vlm.p.36 The vulture, filled with the malevolent spirit of the choleric
Suchi in itself, began to think of executing the purposes that Suchi had in
her mind.

and so the vulture carried the insatiable sUchI in its body
to her intended spot upon the mountain.
like a cloud by the wind, the Demoness was borne by shUchI.Pin.
*vlm.p.37 Thus the vulture, bearing the unsatisfied Suchi within its body,
flew to its intended spot on the mountain. It was driven there like a cloud
by the wind and it was in this place that Suchi was to be released from her
needle shape.

standing on the mountain as a statue, fled away and disappeared from that
place.

*VA. leaving the body of the bird, suci become concentrated in her
consciousness, like smell from the wind concentrates in nose with inhale.
*AS. I agree with everything except for the "inhale". It is saying that she
was like: a streak of fragrance in the wind going towards part of the wind
in the nose. This reminds me of the usual depiction of a smell reaching the
nose of a cartoon character in a directed wave(:.))
*vlm.42. Súchí issued from the body of the bird, in the manner of the
spirit coming out of it, and the intellect aspiring to higher regions; and
as the particles of fragrance fly upon the wings of winds, in order to meet
the breath of the nostrils to be borne into the nose.

*vlm.43. The vulture fled to his own place after leaving Súchí at that
place, like a porter disburthening himself of his load; and found himself
relieved of his lickerish diseases on his return.
The vulture came to his own body
dropping his burden as a porter drops his load.
As.if to deal with the disease
he became a lurking mongoose.

*vlm.p.44 Now the iron Suchi, being seated in her tapas in the form of the
living Suchi, appeared as graceful as a good man engaged in the performance
of his proper duty.
*AS. Then the living needle fashioned the iron needle into a support for
her tapas. The next two lines express a general thought that: It is good
(rAjate) to make firm (dRDha:) appropriate (susadRza:) use (viniyoga:) of
available resources (arthAnAm), for without support (vinA AdhAram) the
actions (kriyAH) of something abstract (amUrtasya) don't succeed (na
sidhyanti). She had to perform tapas and hence needed to make good use of
the hard part of herself, which no longer had the piercing role.

far beyond the seven seas of the earth, where there is a large tract of
land abounding with gems. (It is doubtful whether the polar mountain or sea
abounds with gems).

isles surrounded by the Milky (Atlantic) ocean, and having the temple of
Vishnu in the midst of it; (Meaning perhaps the ancient Kelts to be colony
of the Hindus).

resting on the twig of a tree, after its wearied flight in the air.
