आनन्द

{ ānandḥ, ānanda (cākṣuṣa), ānanda }

Puranic Encyclopaedia

ĀNANDA   A forest on the top of the mountain Mahāmeru. It was inhabited by celestial damsels, devas, gandharvas and Maharṣis. [Chapter 93, Bhūmi Khaṇḍa, Padma Purāṇa] .
ĀNANDA (CĀKṢUṢA)   Son of Maharṣi Anamitra. It was he who was born as Cākṣuṣa, the sixth Manu. There is a story behind his birth. One day, while his mother was keeping him in her lap and caressing him the baby laughed and questioned “Oh mother why are you caressing me, but look at those two cats. They consider me as their food”. After some time one of the cats took the child away and put it in the cradle of the child of King Vikrānta. Vikrānta took the child as his for granted and reared him. At the time of Upanayana the King asked the boy to prostrate before his mother at which the boy exclaimed “Oh King, I am not your son. Your son is at some other place. By births and rebirths all of us have many mothers and so it is better to be above rebirths”. After having said so much Ānanda went to the forest and started doing penance. Brahmā appeared before him and blessing him said that he would become the sixth Manu and lead the world to righteousness. By the blessing of Brahmā Ānanda was reborn as Cākṣuṣamanu. (See under Cākṣuṣa). [Mārkaṇḍeya Purāṇa] .
