260. OM VRUSHAPARVANE NAMA: ॐ व्रुशपर्वणे नम:
Makes varnasrama dharma as steps to reach Him.
In Salagrama Kshetra sage Jatabharata attained Mukti. He was great yogi and performed duties as ordained by the Lord in Varnasrama Dharma. That is performing duties assigned to anyone, in Shastras. Sandyavandanam and Bhagavad Aradanam, should be performed by those assigned to do. Jatabharata's story is told in Srimad Bhagavatam and in Vishnu Puranam. While doing meditation, he rescued a fawn and slowly got attached to it. When he died, his mind was full of fawn and so was born as the young one of Deer. Later, he was born as a human and realizing his mistake in earlier birth, kept totally detached and remained like a jatam [inert]. Later, when he was used by King Rahuguna, to carry his palanquin, King realized Jatabharata's greatness and learnt philosophy.
