Menaka
The celestial honey trap
BookRix GmbH & Co. KG80331 MunichMenaka, the celestial honey trap
Shakuntala the daughter Menaka and Vishwamitra had grown up and lived in the ashram of Kanva Rishi.
Indra had given special status to Menaka for her sacrifice in breaking the meditation of Vishwamitra. She went out of the way to safeguard Indra’s and heaven’s interest. She suffered physically and emotionally in her mission. While acting as the gods’ agent she fell in love with the Rishi and marrying him became the mother of a daughter. The culmination of this episode was that Vishwaamitra cursed her to remain separated from him forever.
She sometimes visited her daughter Shakuntala on earth. Indra had provided her a spaceship operated by Yakshas.
When the conflict between Indra and Vishwamitra over Trishanku was resolved. Menaka decided to visit Shakuntala. She came down to earth by the Yakshas driven vehicle.
Shakuntala and Menaka were glad to see each other. Rishi Kanva provided the best possible facility for Menaka’s boarding and lodging. During Menaka’s stay there Shakuntala stayed with her.
The Rakshasas were always inimical with the gods. They had more bitter feelings towards them from the event of sea churning. They felt cheated by the gods for taking over Menaka and drinking all the Amrut. It was said Menaka came out of the sea at the time of churning. They did not leave any opportunity to harass the gods. Gods were very particular not to allow a noble and brave King like Satyavrat to enter heaven while Rakshas would forcefully enter heaven and disturb the dwellers.
They were equally advanced in the technological field. The kings like Ravana were more resourceful than humans and gods.
