Chapter 24 :- Tandavam
The sky started to shake , the land started to shake , even the heavens were shaking. Every step Shara took , made a cloud throw a bolt of lightning on the mother earth. The sky turned red as the clouds turned black. The ice burnt as hot as an fire and the hell rose up. Volcano erupted on every step , his body turned Black as his eyes turned red. Every roar trembled the earth. The god were terrorized by the destruction of the destroyer that took place on earth. One step caused an earthquake. Shara was dancing , like he was enjoying a ceremony , the dance was of pure joy , however it was ironic , that the thing which looks joyful was bringing upon the destruction no one ever saw. The Loom of fate started to shake vigorously and all the sisters rushed to Benzaiten sama for help.
" Oh sweet mother of heaven , what is it , that's causing so much destruction , the dance that is destroying not only the earth but also the heaven" asked Time
" Is it the time when the prophecy begins " asked Luck
" Maybe it's just the time " completed Destiny
" My dear daughters , the time when the prophecy begins , it's the time of Daikokuten sama Tandav dance or the dance of the manifestation." said Benzaiten sama
" Dance of manifestation " asked Luck
" The dance can be described as a pictorial allegory of the 5 principle manifestation of eternal energy :-
1. Sristi :- Creation
2. Stithi :- Preservation
3. Samahara :- Evolution
4. Tirodhan :- Illusion
5. Anugraha :- Release and Emancipation
It's a sacred dance which has vigorous brisk movement" said Benzaiten
" Wow, can you pls explain it more " said Time
" Daikokuten sama is destroying and creating the nature at the same time, he is balancing the nature of the world. And the destruction caused by the Shiva is constructive because it paves the way for the arrival of the new in the physical world" said Benzaiten.
" The world we are in is bounded by time and space and we are subject to the cause of the natural effect " said Destiny
Benzaiten sama laughed as she look down from her Castle.
" Look and see your self" said Benzaiten sama
When The sister of fate looked down they saw Benzaiten sama huge head which had huge Torii, within which was huge a shrine with a pond in the middle. The earth could be seen in the pond. The earth was magnified and sister could see Shara dancing in anger.
Shara kept dancing and dancing until a huge banyan tree erupted from the earth. The tree was as tall as Shara. From the tree a seed erupted, which opened and revealed a baby covered in band aids stained in blood. However the baby wasn't crying , instead started laughing in joy after seeing Shara. Shara opened his 3rd eye and looked upon the baby. The baby split into two personality. One was covered in silk robes , was as beautiful as the gods. The other one was a weak baby that was covered in band aid and had sharp teeth and demonic eyes. The baby fell down with the seed pod on the ground and started to cry.
" Benzaiten sama " shouted Shara.
As soon as he shouted a huge palm ascended from the sky. It was big enough to carry the baby. A voice echoed from the sky :-
" My children , come here and stand on my palm " said Benzaiten as she grabbed both the babies. She hold them between her fingers which were huge but didn't injured the babies.
Soon golden bubbles started to appear from no where. All had a family , animal or children inside it. However it was in few number. All the bubbles ascended to the heaven where they all lost consciousness.
" Daughters , pls take care of them " said Benzaiten.
Benzaiten took a huge Shamisen and started playing it.
On earth , army of both the clan saw the changes around them and realised that they were doomed. In last ditch effort they all attacked the huge Shara at the sky. Shara opened her all three eyes. A huge cosmic energy spread on earth. Burning everything in contact. Killing all the evil doers. The earth burnt and started to crumble.
