Achyutapreksha is surprised

SUMMARY: “Even though you consumed more than two hundred big bananas after the meals, your stomach is as thin as it was before. It has not bulged at all. Pure-minded Sri Poornajna, tell me the exact reason for this.”

There are two-three astonishing facts here. Firstly, Sri Madhwacharya had his full meal. Secondly, he ate more than two hundred big plantains and thirdly, his stomach remained unchanged. It was as though he had not eaten at all. With this, Sri Madhwacharya showed to the people around him that he is the incarnation of Lord Vayu. However, the query of Sri Achyutapreksharu was to make it known to all others.    

Sri Poornaprajna is Bheemasena and Hanuman as well!

SUMMARY: Sri Poornaprajna, who meditates on Lord Universe Sri Hari always, replied: “Please be aware that a dazzling fire of the size of my thum, which can engulf the universe at the time of the ‘final destruction’ is there in my stomach.”

A distinct phenomenon that a thumb-sized fireball existed in the stomach of Sri Madhwacharyaru has been mentioned in this context.

This is the reason behind eating of horsegram by Sri Madhwacharyarum when he was still a boy.

It may recalled that during Dwaparayuga, when Sri Vayu had incarnated as Bheema, had eaten a cartfull rice and other dishes before killing Bakasura. He had digested the venom that Duryodhana had fed him with deceitfully, when Bheema was a boy.

The word “vishwEshachEtAha” means that Sri Madhwacharyaru said that such distinct qualities were in him because of the grace of Lord Sri Hari.
