fall cruelly upon the earth particles. In retaliation
the earth particles
giving them the taste of their strength, knocking them with their heads,
toss them up in the void
far away...beyond the orbit of the earth, as missiles throw away satellites Aryabhatta, Rohini etc!
Thus knocked
some hailstones crack,
get divided in many parts,
and this scene looks as if
the petals of fragrant parijata flowers
showered from the heavens,
strewing auspicious smile,
are descending slowly, slowly,
like a welcome applause of the earth by the gods!
Thinking that the hailstones may not get injured,
the earth particles are flying bearing them on their heads! It appears as if Hanuman is flying bearing the Himalaya on his head.
This series of events
goes on occuring for hours...continuously; even the much talked of 'star-war' today is insignificiant before it.
