Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 19, Shloka 12:

Mother is like a sack made of skin. One who is born to a father, the son belongs to the father only. So, they told Dushyanta, do take care of him, you are the one responsible for him. You are the father, don't disrespect Shakuntalaa.

 

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

If an object is kept in a sack, that object belongs to the person who kept it there. It does not belong to the sack. That is how the name Bharata got formed.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

There was a discussion regarding whom the son belongs to, the father or the mother. It is to one who gives the retas, the father. It does not belong to the mb of Shakuntalaa mother. You are the one who is the father of this the child in the womb.

When Bharata was not able to have a son, all his efforts got wasted, and he wanted to have a son, he performed a yaaga called Marutsoma, the Maruts gave him a son by name Bharadvaaja.

 

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Bruhaspati's elder brother was Utatthya. Utatthya's wife was Mamataa. Mamataa was pregnant with Utatthya. The child in the womb of Mamataa was going to get the name Deerghatamas. Bruhaspati united with Mamataa, attracted by her pleasure, due to kaama. Utatthya's son was Outatthya, who was already in the womb of Mamataa, that child in the womb threw away Bruhaspati's veerya from the back of the foot, and that veerya fell on the earth. Then Bruhaspati gave him a curse that you become blind. That is why he was called Deerghatamas . That Bruhaspati veerya which fell down on the ground, became a child, on seeing that, that child which was born from two fathers – Bruhaspati and Utatthya, he tells Mamataa to take care of this child who was born from two fathers; she also tells Bruhaspati to bear him, and they both leave him.

There is a shloka sung in respect of Shantanu.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 13:

Shantanu was so famous that this shloka is being sung in respect of him. Whomever Shantanu touches with his hands, if he is old also, he will become young. That was his power. He gets utmost peace and tranquility, and because of that, he was called Shantanu.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 14:

For twelve years, there were no rains in Shantanu's country.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 15:

The gods are not bringing rains to my country, and the country was in a lot of trouble because there was no water, there was famine. He called all the Brahmins and asked them – what is my aparaadha, what wrong did I do? Why are the gods not bringing rains to my country?

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 16:

Then the Brahmins told him thus.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 17:

This country belongs to your elder brother, but you are actually ruling this country. That is why you are called Parivettaa. When the elder brother is there, if the younger brother becomes king, he is called a Parivettaa. When they told him thus, he enquired further.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 18:

What am I supposed to do now?

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 19:

Then they tell him thus.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 20:

As long as your elder brother Devaapi does not fall from the path of righteousness, this land belongs to him.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 21:

You have to give this country to him. He is the proper ruler. When the Brahmins told like this, Shantanu's minister Ashmaraavi, sent some tapasvis into the forest, who were arguing everything against what is told in the Vedaas, in the wrong way.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 22:

Because of their companionship, he also started to tell things against the Vedaas, against the Shrutis. Devaapi was also in their company.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 23:

In the meanwhile, King Shantanu felt very bad that he is doing a wrong thing, and he took those Brahmins and went to the forest, in order to give the kingdom to his elder brother Devaapi.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 24:

They went to the aashrama and met Devaapi.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 25:

The Brahmins, whom he had taken along with him, went and argued that only the eldest son should rule the country, as the kingdom belongs to him. They started a discussion on that and started to explain what is t old in the shaastraas. The elder son only is eligible to rule the country.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 26:

Devaapi's mind was already disturbed by being in the company of those tapasvis, who were talking against the Vedaas. So, he started to argue with them against the Vedaas.

 

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

He started to argue against what is told in the Vedaas. He started to prove that all those things were wrong. His arguments were against the Vedaas. Devaapi fell from the path of righteousness only during that time, because in the next Kruta yuga, Devaapi is said to be the restorer of the Kshatriya race. He fell from the path of righteousness only for a brief time. Whatever is told in the mantra as यत् देवािपः शंतनवे isपुरोिहतम् applicable to another kalpa. Devaapi started to bring out arguments against what the Brahmins said.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 27:

Then the Brahmins told Shantanu thus.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 28:

O King Shantanu, you can go back to your kingdom. Whatever wrong you had done is all corrected as Devaapi has fallen from the path of righteousness, and you will not have any problem. There will be rains in your kingdom. He has fallen from the path of righteousness, because he is talking against the Vedaas, which is established from time immemorial.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 29:

When your elder brother is away from the path of righteousness, you will not be a parivettaa anymore. Shantanu came back to his country and started to rule over that place.

 

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 4, Chapter 20, Shloka 30:

Because Devaapi had gone away from the path of the Vedaas, though the elder brother Devaapi was there, the God Parjanya brought abundant rains so that there is abundant harvest in his country. Because Devaapi had gone away from the path of righteousness, Shantanu was eligible to rule over the country.
