How Did Shukracharya Identify Vamana as Vishnu
Shukracharya Sensed the Hidden Laxmi in the Heart of Vamana
Lost
In the guise of a bachelor and with deerskin on His shoulders the Lord arrived at the place where Emperor Bali was performing yagna. He demanded ground measuring three steps by Him, which was readily agreed by the Emperor. What can be that area, we might think, but the Lord is capable of doing beyond our imagination and that is what was to happen. Normally, any such grant has to be authenticated by pronouncement with water flowing from the hands. So Bali took the water pot to make the promise. His Guru was Sukracharya and he knew that the Lord had come in disguise to take away all wealth of Bali; and to prevent that Sukracharya in a bee form went and blocked the hole from which water was to flow to solemnize the promise. But the Lord knew the cause and so like dirt being removed in any block, He used a grass [dharba] to clear the block. It hurt one of he eyes of Sukracharya, in the guise of a bee, and with pain the bee fell out and water flowed, and the promise was legalized.
