Dear Bhagavatas: A few typographical errors have crept in my posting on the above subject. Please make the following corrections. For "riches" read "Rishis" For "India" read "Indra" wherever it occurs. For "Prapanna " read "NArAyaNa" << We know how the Lord once took the AvatAra of Sishya and Guru in the form of Nara and Narayana. VAmana PurANa has a legend about how the penance and austerities of these *riches* so alarmed *India* who (not knowing that it was Lord *Prapanna* who had taken those forms) sent nymphs to inspire them with passion and disturb their devotions. NArAyaNa took a flower and placed it on his thigh and rubbed it. Immediately, there sprang from it a beautiful nymph whose charms far excelled those of the celestial nymphs and made them return to *India* filled with shame >> Sorry for the inconvenience.
