sorry for cluttering this thread, but thanks for all the help HHji.
in skanda purANa, Sri sUta further narrates:
<b>gurutalpAyutam</b> tasya tatkhshaNAdeva nashyati
yasyAsthi setumadhye tu sthApitam putrapautrakaiH
(even sins of his who has done the crime of -) "gurutalpa", his (sins) are also destroyed instantly
whose last remains are established in the middle of the Setu, by sons-grandsons}
is above translation accurate?
meaning of gurutalpa:
Guru is Master, but may also mean heavy
talpa is bed, particularly nupital bed. (Sesha-talpa-sukha-nidraNa = Vishnu)
does the sin of gurutalpa mean 'violating the bed of his Guru'? (Adultrous offense towards Gurumata, Guruvanita, Gurubhagini, Gurusuta etc?) Or does it mean 'heavily adulterous'?
if this is what it means, then has such a crime been even heard of? (like Nala-Damayanti probably? was that Gurutalpa?)
what does it mean?
