๐ŸŒป If you are following Guru's orders sincerely You will be Protected always not only by Nature and Devas but by Guru directly ๐ŸŒป

Guru Dhaumya asked Upamanyu, “In spite of giving away to me all the food that you collect, you are still looking smooth and stout. Tell me the reason.”

Upamanyu said, “There is no special trick here. I have been drinking cow’s milk.” Dhaumya thought, if he now tells Upamanyu to offer him whatever milk he obtains from a cow, he may come with some different strategy.

So he ordered, “You are forbidden from drinking cow’s milk.” Days went by. A fter several days Dhaumya saw Upamanyu again and saw that there was absolutely no change in him.

He questioned him, “What are you doing to remain so fat?” Upamanyu said, “After the calves have finished drinking all the milk, whatever foam remains, that is what I am consuming.”

Since there were hundreds of cows, the foam alone would perhaps fill two pots.

Dhaumya was totally losing patience. Yet, he controlled his anger and intolerance and said, “From today onwards I forbid you to touch any type of food.” He could have said this to begin with.

He had not anticipated that Upamanyu would resort to all kinds of strange tactics to circumvent his orders. Since that day Upamanyu did not touch any food. One day he took the cattle grazing in the forest. He was absolu tely starved.

All the stored food in his body got exhausted. He became thin. He was unable to withstand the pangs of hunger any longer. He somehow managed to wait until sunset.

Thereafter, he lost his selfwh control. In desperation, without even realizing at plant it was, he tore off some leaves from a tree and was about to consume them. As he was doing so, the milky sap from the leaves spilled and fell into his eyes.

He at once became blind. They were the leaves of the white arka plant. Unable to find his way, Upamanyu fell into an abandoned well. Dhaumya became concerned when his disciple did not return with the cattle.

He wondered if Upamanyu, unable to follow Guru’s impossible commands had absconded with the cows, wishing to eat to his heart’s content elsewhere in a different country. Guru became very anxious because his love for the disciple was boundless.

He did not send any other disciple to go looking for him. He himself set out looking for Upamanyu, calling out his name loudly. It was dark and to add to it, it began to rain heavily.

After some time, Guru heard Upamanyu’s voice, “O revered Guru, I am inside the well.” Guru said, “I am unable to find my way in this darkness.

You please offer prayers to the Aswini twins (celestial physicians). Guru already knew exactly what had happened. At once Upamanyu began chanting, “Stotum …
