One Bhukkunda was ordered to be executed by the King

set him free. Group members can identify this
sloka and its meaning and send the reply to me by

Dear Mr. Ramakrishnan,
I am hereby sending a reply to the question you asked
on the Sanskrit list. Earlier you sent me an email
which I have not yet replied. I am sorry about that.
Many nice things are happening on the Sanskrit list
these days. It is good to see.

King Bhoja, himself a renowned poet, was a patron of
poets. In his kingdom lived a robber named Bhukkunda
who was also a poet. He was at one point caught by
the police and was sentenced to be executed.
However, he sent the following zloka to king Bhoja and
was consequentlyreleased.
bhaTTir naSTo bhAravIyo 'pi naSTaH bhikSur naSTo
bhImaseno 'pi naSTaH |
bhukkundo 'haM bhUpatis tvaM hi rAjan bhabhApaddhatim
antakaH sanniviSTaH ||
"BhaTTi is dead and so is BhAravIya, BhikSu is dead
and so is BhImasena; I am Bhukkunda and you are
BhUpati, O King, and Death is on
the path of bha, bhA, etc."
BhaTTi, BhAravIya, BhikSu and BhImasena are all names
of poets.
With all best wishes,
Toke Lindegaard Knudsen

<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
I do not know the sloka hence, can't give the meaning
either:-)
Heard a similar story before. I think it is from
Bhartruhari Prabandha,one of the stories of King Bhoja
who loves poetry very much.
- SArada
Peekayar's note.
The name of the King is Bhoja who was also a poet. The
story is from Bhojaprabandha. Mr. Toke gets full
marks.
Full meaning -
Bhatti is dead.
Bhaaraviiya also is dead.
BhikSu is dead.
Bhiimasena also is dead.
Bhukkunda I am. (will be dead soon)
Bhuupati you are.(next on the list)
Oh! King! Death is on the road
(of poets) marked bha,bhaa and so on.
On reading this the king ordered Bhukkunda
to be released.
Humour in grammer(4)will appear tomorrow.

A compound word in Sanskrit is called samaasa.
There are several methods by which words are
compounded. Depending on the nature of compounding,
there are different names for these. These are
generally -
dvanda, dvigu, avyayiibhaava, tatpuruSa,
karmadhaaraya and bahuvriihiH.
One poet has composed this beautiful shloka
incorporating all these names.
dvandohaM dvigurapi chaahaM,
madgehe nityamavyayiibhaavaH.
tatpuruSa karmadhaaraya
yenaahaM syaaM bahuvriihiH..
Members may send the meaning to me by 2nd March.
I will publish the answer on 3rd March.

To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Dear Pandits,
Can some clarify me about the authorship of Mahishasura Mardhini - Is it Adi
Sankara or Kalidasa?
If we compare the ease with which Kalidasa deals with meters of different
variety (within the same piece) as in Shyamala Dandakam, it raises a doubt
(given the fact that Mahishasura Mardhini is written in the same metre
througout).
But Adi Sankara is not known to have written a work without some reference
to Advaita and in Mahishasura Mardhini this is noticeably absent.
Can someone clarify this please?
Kind Regards, AR
