Jan. 1962] THE LEGEND OF CIRAKARIN 209 the nature and magnitude of the mother's guilt. We have
seen above in the SK. version that the mother's guilt lay in her
lapse of merely having gazed at King Bali. There Indra merely
played the part of an adviser who advised Gautama to take
a lenient view of the affair. In the Mbh. version, however,
in a passage which is found dropped in the SK., Indra plays
the active and principal part in seducing and ravishing the
wife of Gautama (the mother of Cirkarin). Both Gautama and
Cirak盲rin know it and still hold the wife and the mother
respectively as guiltless in the exigency of that particular
situation, of course, on different grounds. C. argues that Indra
approached his mother in the guise of Gautama, his father, and
that, therefore, it was no fault of his mother, if she answered
the overtures of Indra, in her husband's guise. Further he
says that if it was anybody's fault or sin, it was Indra's; for
it was Indra who had put sexual passion in women's nature
and who now took advantage of that trait in the particular
case. C.'s words in the Mbh. passage are as follows: "A
husband is the highest object with the wife and the highest
deity to her. My mother gave up her sacred person to one
that came to her in the form and guise of her own husband.
Then again the sinfulness (in this case) is evident of Indra
himself who (by acting in the way he did) caused the re-
collection of the request that had been made to him in days
of yore by women (when a third part of the sin of Brahmanicide
of which Indra himself was guilty, was cast upon her sex)."
