Next morning, DUSHGREEV reached the KUTIA of RISHI SUKRACHARYA. Rishi SUKRACHARYA was waiting for him.When he reached there, RISHI SUKRACHARYA told him that "you look kinda upset".

"No ACHARYA"DUSHGREEV replied.

Acharya told DUSHGREEV that"I know last night your father told you the story of immortality and I also know that you did not like that story as much as your father thought while telling you the story".

DUSHGREEV was astonished on hearing this, and asked ACHARYA that"How do you know ACHARYA what my father told me last night"?

"It's because of power DUSHGREEV".

"What power ACHARYA" DUSHGREEV asked.

"It is such a power DUSHGREEV that tells me about the future, present and past of the person in front

of me".

"Did you get this power as soon as you were born ACHARYA"?

"No DUSHGREEV", Acharya said with a laugh and said"I got this power after doing severe penance".

"For whom you penance ACHARYA"?

"I have done penance for many things DUSHGREEV" ACHARYA said.

"Can you tell me a bit more about the powers ACHARYA" DUSHGREEV asked.

"Yes today i will tell you about these powers listen carefully,man do penance for many reasons like some humans do penance to please God and if their penance is successful then they ask for a wish from God and this wishes are known as VARDAAN.

"So ACHARYA, which god did you do penance for"? DUSHGREEV asked.

"I did penance for Lord SHIVA" ACHARYA said.

What did you want from Lord SHIVA as VARDAAN ACHARYA?

"THE SANJEEVANI MANTRA".

What is SANJEEVANI MANTRA ACHARYA?

"SANJEEVANI MANTRA is a potent Mantra that can infuse life into the dead. In short, it is a Mantra that gives life or a new lease of life to the deceased".

DUSHGREEV was astonished on hearing this.

"Don't be so surprised DUSHGREEV, there are many boons you can ask from God But you have to do a lot of penance for this".

"For how many years did you do penance, Acharya"?

"500 years".

"What would you ask for as a boon DUSHGREEV"?

"I will ask God for immortality as a boon ACHARYA".

"I knew that you will ask immortality as a boon, But I wanted you to ask for divine weapons as a boon."

"Why ACHARYA"?

"The divine weapon will help you win the battle with the gods and you want the same".

I love to see you getting excited,But that's enough for today.Tomorrow I will tell you about the acquisition and use of the divine weapons.

"Ok ACHARYA".
