PARASHURAMA |
|
Introduction Parashurama -the epic hero with an axe - was a real 'Yama' (God
of Death) to the evil and arrogant. He traversed the earth twenty-one times and punished
the evildoers who were harassing the people. He was the 'Guru' (Master) of such royal
stalwarts and savants as Bhishma and Drona. Parashurama is recognized as one of the
immortals and an incarnation of God Vishnu.

Parashurama
Ages ago, in pauranic times, several kings who had turned into evil beings because of
their royal wealth, arrogance of power,and people'sallegiance,ruled our Bharata- varsha.
They had posed a serious threat to the pious, religious and scholarly life- pursuit of
those who wanted to lead a life of moral and social rectitude.
