Bhishma vs Parashuram Duel - Divine Chariot Vision

Agnivansha


There are four clans claiming Agnivanshi descent, being 
  1. the Chauhans (Chahamanas),  
  2. Parihars (Pratiharas), 
  3. Parmars (Paramaras) and  
  4. Solankis (Chalukyas).
The Bhavishya Purana version of the legend begins with the puranic legend wherein Parashurama, an avatar of Vishnu, exterminated the traditional Rajputs of the land. Later, the legend says, sage Vasishta performed a great Yajna or fire-sacrifice, to seek from the gods a provision for the defense of righteousness on earth. In answer to his prayer, a youth arose from the Agnikunda or fire-altar—the first Agnivanshi Rajput. According to different versions of the legend, Rajput clans originated from the Agnikunda.
  1. The Pratiharas established the first Rajput kingdom in Marwar in southwestern Rajasthan in the 6th century the greatest kingdom after Ashoka and Harshvardhan, 
  2. the Chauhans at Ajmer in central Rajasthan, 
  3. the Solankis in Gujarat, and the 
  4. Paramaras in Malwa Rahevar "Rever" Tarangagadh - Rajasthan.

Giving Axe to Lord Ganesha


Having Finished His Work With Axe On Earth - Parashurama also went to visit Shiva but the way was blocked by Ganesha saying that the Lord was resting at that time in the inner chambers, and that he might wait for a few minutes till he (Ganesh) could go and obtain permission from the father. Parasuram argued that it was not necessary for an ardent disciple tike him to obtain prior permission from the revered Teacher and that he just wanted to go in, prostrate at His feet and come back. But Ganesh did not yield. A wordy duel brew up, developed into a scuffle and deteriorated into a real fight.

Ganesha Lifted Parshurama with his Tusk to Topmost Sphere of Spiritual Abode- There Parashurama Was Able to See Golok Vrindavan With Radha and Krishna


Parashurama threw the axe at him and Ganesha, knowing it had been given by Shiva, ganesh allowed to cut off one of his tusks


The goddess Parvati (wife of Shiva), on finding her son's tusk being cut, filled with rage and declared that if Parashurama's thirst for Kshatriya's blood was still not over, she would put a stop to it and teach him a final lesson; she would sever both of his arms and kill him. The Goddess Parvati then took a form of Shakti (the Goddess Durga) and thus became the ultimate source of Power who no other divine power could resist or match. 


Radha Krishna Appeared There and Blessed That Broken Tusk Will Be
Used to Write The Largest Epic of World The Mahabharata
Dictated to Ganesh By Their Combined Incarnation as Ved Vyas
 
and Parashuram''s Three Disciples 
  1. Bhisma 
  2. Drona
  3. Karna
Will Not Win Despite Him as Mentor

Lord Shiva arrived at the scene and pacified Parvati after convincing not to harm Parashurama as he is also like her son in a way and she should forgive him as a Mother should forgive her child’s mistake.Parashurama also asked for his forgiveness. Parvati finally forgives Parashurama at the request of Ganesha.  
Parashurama then gave his divine axe to Ganesha and blessed him.

Ganesha Coast
The `Ganesha Coast', as people call it, is also known as the Parashurama Kshetra, which means, "re-claimed by Lord Parashurama from the sea". The legends go on to say that Lord Ganesha protects this coast from natural calamities.

Six Ganesha temples along India's western coast. The circuit starts with
  1. Kasargod,  
  2. Mangalore,  
  3. Anegudde,  
  4. Kundapura
  5. Idagunji and 
  6. Gokarna. Any person visiting with his family all the six temples, within one day between sunrise and sunset will receive special blessings

Renuka

Sandals and Umberla



O Pitamaha! Generally, during Pitru ceremonies, chappals and umbrellas are given in charity to Brahmins. Why chappals and umbrellas are chosen for charity. Kindly explain.” asked Dharmaja.

“O Dharmaja! In this connection, I narrate a conversation between Sun and Saint Jamadagni. Once Jamadagni along with his wife Renuka, went far away from their Ashram for a stroll. Jamadagni was holding his bow and Renuka was holding the arrows pouch. While Jamadagni was releasing arrows from his bow, Renuka was collecting the arrows.

This went on upto midday. Sun was shining bright and hot in the middle of the sky. During that hot son, there was some delay in bringing the arrows.

“Why so much delay?” asked Jamadagni.

“The sun is hot. My feet are burning. Hence I stood under a tree for a while. Hence the delay.” replied Renuka.

Jamadagni grew angry. “What! Sun caused your feet burning and pained you. I will teach a lesson to Sun. I will cover the entire Sun with my arrows.” roared Jamadagni.

Sun heard these words and arrived there under the guise of a Brahmin. “O Saint Jamadagni! kindly subside your anger against Sun” requested the Brahmin (Sun).

“Go away. I will pull down the Sun from sky to earth” said Jamadagni.

“O Saint! You are a saint. How can you get anger! Due to the heat of Sun only, the waters in the Seas are transformed into clouds and giving us water in the form of rain. Otherwise, how can we get drinking water and water for cultivation. Therefore, heat of sun is a must.” said Brahmin (Sun). But Jamadagni was not convinced. Then Sun appeared before Jamadagni in his original form.

“O saint Jamadagni! I am Sun. Kindly excuse me if any wrong is committed by me. Kindly receive these two things. These are umbrella and chappals. These two things protect humans from hot sun. If chappals and umbrellas are given to brahmins, attainment of Punya is certain.”said Sun. Jamadagni was very happy.

Dharmaja! in that manner, umbrella and chappals were created by Sun.” said Bhishma.

Giant


Parasurama liberated many living entities from their curses. One such incident is narrated in Mahabharata. Lord Parasurama was the teacher of Karna. One day after the classes were over, Lord Parasurama was relaxing on the lap of Karna who was his student and Karna was massaging his body. At that time, a very fearful bug sat on the lap of karna and started piercing his leg. It was having hairs like needle, ugly looking body and ferocious in its look. As the bug pierced, blood started flowing out of Karna's thigh and it touched Lord Parasurama who woke up by this . And he was shocked to see the blood and he looked at the bug which caused this bleeding. The moment it was glanced by Lord Parasurama, the bug passed away soaked in blood. Immediately, a big giant appeared and offered obeisance to the Lord.

The giant spoke, "O Lord, thank you so much for releasing me from the ugly body of blood sucking bug. In the Satya yuga, I was a close friend of the Bhrigu rishi and I was very powerful giant with the name Kamsa (not the kamsa in Krishna lila). One day I enjoyed the wife of Bhrigu rishi by force due to by lustful exploiting mentality. The sage became angry and cursed me to become a blood sucking bug. Then I begged for forgiveness from him and asked for way to redeem from the curse. He said that, "When you’re glanced by Lord Parasurama who will appear in our lineage, you will be free from this curse." Now by your merciful glance I'm relieved from this body and regained my original form." Stating this the giant offered pranams to the Lord and left the place.

Genocide

The violent persecution of Brahmins by Kshatriya had at the time spanned generations. Aurva, great-grandfather of Parashurama, recalled a vivid childhood experience:
While lying unborn, I heard the doleful cries of my mother and other women of the Bhrigu race who were then being exterminated by the Kshatriyas. When those Kshatriyas began to exterminate the Bhrigus together with unborn children of their race, it was then that wrath filled my soul. My mother and the other women of our race, each in an advanced state of pregnancy, and my father, while terribly alarmed, found not in all the worlds a single protector. Then when the Bhrigu women found not a single protector, my mother held me in one of her thighs. –Mahabharata 1:182

Bhajan

Polygamy

It is said that Parashuram continued killing every Kshatriya in his path until there were no more warriors left on earth. 

To restore the Kshatriya clans, the widows married the only left out King Dasarath by Nari-kavacha, meaning 'one whose armor was made of women'. He survived by agreeing to marry them one each day. 

Parashurama had while taking pledge to destroy kshatriyas had restricted himself from killing freshly married couples.

Making Dead Alive


Many Rishis and Brahmins shunned Parshuram as they felt he was contaminated with blood and murder. Determined to pass on his knowledge of warfare to priests who could balance the power of kings, Parshuram went to crematorium and resurrected dead priests, who became his students.
