In that state of delusion and crookedness of mind I had unfortunately cursed both of you. Hearing the Ganas’ words uttered with devotion and respect, Narada replied lovingly, repenting his previous fury,”Being the Ganas of Shiva, you are most worthy of the respect of good people. Realising that the occasion was inopportune we had kept quiet. You had cursed us when your mind was deluded by the illusory infatuation for the princess at the swayamvara. We, who had offended you at the swayamvara, are not really brahmanas. So they said to him,”Devarishi, please hear our words. They wished to secure release from Narada’s curse. Narada by that time had become pure in mind. The two Ganas of Shiva who were beside Narada at the swayamvara of the princess, heard of his wanderings and approached him. When Vishnu left, the great rishi Narada roamed over the Earth visiting Shiva Lingas in various holy places. (Continued from “Narada and the Maya of Shiva”)
