Chapter – 138 – The legend of Parashurama-2

The state of renunciation 'Kaivalya' can be achieved with the supreme wisdom and knowledge, development in any field is possible through performing duties and responsibilities /Karma, and with the supreme wisdom and knowledge as well.  Any  development of duty-bound would face the constant threat of destruction.    Kaivalya can be attained only with supreme wisdom,  association with the saintly men,   meditation, reading scriptures, recitation of sacred names of Lord, and the constant remembrance of Lord with the knowledge about the mind and intellect that are originated from the supreme soul, and therefore it should merge with the supreme Lord who has all-pervading blissful nature, it is changeless, and has neither beginning nor end.  The lack of knowledge of the Supreme Lord who resides as a soul would cause  the soul to hold on to the worldly matters, eventually transform the souls as selfish, finds immense pleasure in conflicts, wickedness, cruelty, mercilessness, jealousy, pride, etc…  The ultimate object of  the incarnation of Lord Vishnu as Parashurama was put an end to the wicked Kshatriyas who were immersed in the material world.   Further, Bhargavarama reinstated the glories of twice-born who are well versed in Vedic culture and the knowledge of supreme Bhramam.  Hence, Karma/duties and responsibilities followed with the wisdom are considered as supreme, any Karma without the knowledge of the nature of the Supreme Lord is worthless.  The human intellect and mind is too complex,  it is completely under the influence of Maya/ illusion,  it gets easily attracted to the pleasure in the material world, outward appearances, senses, and objects, without the knowledge that all those material pleasures are short living nature, therefore it keeps searching for numerous ways to please the senses and its journey goes on and on by taking several births.  Therefore a multifaceted mind and intellect can be put into practice of the permanent nature of the supreme Lord who is bliss; this is possible only through wisdom/Vedanta Vignana, association with the ascetics and saintly people.
