Agastya rishi

Agastya :
Agast-rishiAgastya is the reputed author of several hymns in the Rig- Veda and a very celebrated personage . The Puranas  represent him as being the son of Pulastya , the sage from whom the Rakshasas sprang . Agastya is derived from a forced etymology in a fable, which represents him as having commanded the Vindhya Mountains to prostrate before him . Hence he is also called Vindhya Kuta. He is one of the writers of the Brahma Purana and also a writer on
medicine . He holds a distinguished place in the Ramayana , where he dwelt in a hermitage on Mount Kunjara as chief of the hermits of the south . He extended kindness to Lord Rama in exile and went on to become his friend, advisor and protector . He is also said to have gifted the bow of  Vishnu to Rama . He is also considered the first teacher of science and literature to the primitive Dravidian tribes . Hence they venerate him .

  2. Hi, the first letter was sent to my billing address, not my shipping address. I do not know if it is just me or other folks had this issue but I just wished to let you guys know. It was definitely disappointing not getting the letter where I’m ideal now!
