अहिल्या ahilyā

(Ramayan) Ahilya was the wife of sage Gautam. Both lived happily in his ashram spending their days in peace and holy meditation. One day during the sage's absence, Indra, filled with unholy desires for the beautiful Ahilya, entered the ashram disguised as Gautam and approached the lady. Ahilya was not deceived by the impersonation but the vain of her beauty and the feeling of proud that it had won her the love of lord of the deities, she lost her judgement and yielded to his desire. After the sin had been committed, she realised the fierce spiritual energy of her husband and warned Indra of the terrible peril and begged with him to leave immediately. Indra was feeling guilty and panicky and wanted to flee when he bumped into the rishi who was just returning after his morning ablutions. The sage could guess as to what had happened and looked wrathfully at Indra. The sage was terribly angry and cursed Indra as a punishment for the sin he had committed. Then the sage turned to his erring wife and said, “With only air around you, you will remain here as a stone and nobody will even notice you.”. The sage then left his ashram for Himalayas to engage himself in austerities there. As years passed by, Ahilya remained in the ashram as a stone idol and the vegetation grew up over it . One day Lord Rama, son of King Dasharatha accompanied by brother Lakshman happened to pass by the Ashram. He was on his way to Mithila. When he saw the ashram and its poor condition, he was curious to know about the place. In order to find out more, he stepped into the ashram. The moment Rama's foot touched the stone, the curse was lifted and Ahalya stood before them in all her beauty, free from the curse that her husband had inflicted upon her. Spiritual Significance: This is the story of the souls whose intellect changes from golden to stone. In the Sat Yuga, the soul, with its highest divinity and golden intellect, was worship worthy (like Ahilya was so handsome). But, in the Dwapara and Kali Yuga, the soul indulged itself in the body consciousness because of which, it became slave to the five vices ( Sex-lust, Anger, greed, Attachment and Arrogance). The soul has been cursed by the Maya and thus lost its divinity and became like stone intellect (Ahilya in body consciousness lost her conscience). The father of all the souls, Shiv Baba, reincarnates onto the earth to re-transform his children and to bring them back to their original qualities and divinity. He is imparting the spiritual knowledge and teaching the Rajyoga Meditation. The souls who make the effort and inculcate the divine knowledge and celestial virtues regain their original spiritual beauty and divinity (Ahilya again coming into her original form).
