Ideals of Penance, Self-Control, and Mastery of the Senses

Introduction: Nara-Narayana, sons of Dharma and Murti, performed severe penance at Badrikashram.

Story: Alarmed by their austerities, Indra sent Kamadeva and celestial nymphs, but Nara-Narayana remained unshaken. Narayana created the exquisitely beautiful Urvashi from his own thigh, and the nymphs returned in shame. It is believed that in the Dvapara Yuga, these same sages came as Arjuna and Shri Krishna.

Message: No temptation can shake a firm resolve.
