Relief Form Controller of Papa Purusha - Supreme Personality of Sin

Vyasadeva to jemini

Supreme Lord, who is the giver of distress and happiness to the living entities, went to the house of Yamaraja, with the help of Garuda, the king of birds.

When Yamaraja saw that Lord Vishnu had arrived, he immediately washed His feet and made an offering unto Him. He then had Him sit upon a golden throne.

The Supreme Lord Vishnu became seated upon the throne, whereupon He heard very loud crying sounds from the southern direction. He became surprised by this and inquired of Yamaraja, ‘From where is this loud crying coming?’ “Yamaraja in reply said, ‘O Deva! The different living entities of the earthly planetary systems have fallen to the hellish regions. They are suffering extremely for their misdeeds. The horrible crying is because of suffering from the inflictions of their past bad actions.’

“After hearing this the Supreme Lord Vishnu went to the hellish region to the south. When the inhabitants saw who had come they began to cry even louder. The heart of the Supreme Lord Vishnu became filled with compassion. Lord Vishnu thought to Himself, ‘I have created all this progeny, and it is because of Me that they are suffering.’”

After the merciful Supreme Lord thought over what He had previously considered, He suddenly manifested from His own form the deity of the lunar day Ekadasi. Afterward, the different sinful living entities began to follow the vow of Ekadasi and were then elevated quickly to the abode of Vaikuntha.

Controller of Papa Purusha - Supreme Personality of Sin

Vyasadeva to jemini The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Lord Vishnu, upon seeing this personality of sin began to think to Himself as follows:
  1. Now I must create someone who will control this personality’. At this time Sri Bhagavan created the personality of Yamaraja and the different hellish planetary systems.
  2. Those living entities who are very sinful will be sent after death to Yamaraja, who will in turn, according to their sins, send them to an appropritate hellish region to suffer.

Papa Purusha - Supreme Personality of Sin

Vyasadeva to jemini

At the beginning of the material creation, the Supreme Lord created the moving and non-moving living entities within this world made of five gross material elements. Simultaneously, for the purpose of punishing the evil human beings, He created a personality whose form was the embodiment of the worst kinds of sin (Papa-purusha). The different limbs of this personality were constructed of various sinful activities.
  1. His head was made of the sin of murdering a brahmana(Knower of Brahma - Soul)
  2. His two eyes were the form of drinking intoxicants, 
  3. His mouth was made from the sin of stealing gold, 
  4. His ears were form of the sin of having illicit connection with spiritual master’s wife, 
  5. His nose was of the sin of killing one’s wife, 
  6. His arms the form of the sin of killing a cow, 
  7. His neck was made of the sin of stealing accumulated wealth, 
  8. His chest of the sin of abortion, 
  9. His lower chest of the sin of having sex with another’s wife, 
  10. His stomach of the sin of killings one’s relatives, 
  11. His navel of the sin of killing those who are dependent on him, 
  12. His waist of the sin of egotistical self-appraisal, 
  13. His thighs of the sin of offending the guru, 
  14. His genitals of the sin of selling one’s daughter, 
  15. His buttocks of the sin of telling confidential matters, 
  16. His feet of the sin of killing one’s father, and 
  17. His hair was the form of all sorts of less severe sinful activities.
