Parikshit's protection in the womb, Kunti's praise of Go,d and
Yudhishthira's mourning
After this, the Pandavas went to the bank of the Ganga-Tira,
leading the women along with Krishna, to pay tribute to their dead relatives.
(1)
There they all paid their respects to the deceased brothers and
moaned again. After that, the bathed again in the water of
the Ganges which had been sanctified by the dust of the Lord's lotus feet. (2)
Kururaja Maharaj Yudhishthira, his brother, Dhritarashtra,
Gandhari, Kunt, I and Draupadi, distraught with bereavement, were
all mourning for their dead relatives. Shri Krishna consoled them along with
Dhaumya Munis and made them understand that all beings in the world are subject
to time. No one can escape from death. God (3-4)
Thus, treacherously usurped by crafty brothers
Lord Krishna gave the kingdom to Yudhishthira Maharaja, an enemy
of Ajat. He also killed the evil kings whose lives were lost by touching
Draupadi's hair. (4)
Likewise by better materials and priests
Three Ashwamedha yagnas were performed by Yudhishthira. Thus, like
the success of Indra who performed a hundred sacrifices, Yudhishthira's holy
success spread in ten directions. (6)
After that Lord Krishna thought of going from there Vyasa and
other Brahmins were honored by the Pandavasand
said goodbye All of them are great to Lord Krishna
Then Krishna, along with Satyaki and Uddhava mounted the chariot
to go to Dwarka. At the same time, he saw that Uttara, who was terrified, was
running from the front. (7-8)
Uttara said - Devadhideva, Jagadishwara, you
You are a great yogi. You protect me. In this worldno one givess
me refuge except you. Because hereevery onee is causing the death of others.
(9)
O Lord, You are Almighty. hot
This iron arrow is speeding towards me. Swami, let this consume my
pleasure, but let it not shock my womb. (10)
Soot said - As soon as Bhaktavatsala Bhagwan heard her words of
compassion, he misunderstood that it was Ashwatthama who had experimented with
Brahmastra to destroy the race of Pandavas. (11)
O sage, the five burning arrows belong to us
At the same time the Pandavas saw them coming, so they also
prepared their weapons .(12)
The almighty lord Krishna has his unique
Seeing the plight of the loving devotees, His Sudarshan Chakra
protected them.(13)
Lord Krishna, the Lord of Yoga, in His own form in the hearts of
all beings
are seated. In order to continue the lineage of the Pandavas, they
covered the womb of the north with their magic. (14)
Shaunaka, though Brahmastra is infallible and him
There is no way to resist, Lord
When he came in front of Krishna's radiance, he became calm. (15)
There is no reason to wonder. because
Lord Krishna is the source of all wonders. Although He Himself is
unborn, He creates, preserves and destroys this universethroughy the Yoga of
Maya .(16)
When Lord Krishna left to go, then
Sati Kunti along with her son and Draupadi, freed from the flames
of Brahmastra,was praised in this way .(17)
Kunti said - we are all beings outside and
living in; Yet we cannot be seen by the senses and instincts, being
the primordial Lord beyond nature. I salute you. (18)
At the bottom of all that is perceived by the senses
If you exist, but are covered by the veil of your maya, how can I
know you, the ignorant woman, the imperishable man? People of dim intelligence
cannot recognize the one wearing the guise of a nut even by seeing them,
similarly we cannot recognize them. (19)
You have incarnated to germinate your loving devotion in the
hearts of the pure-hearted, sane, life-free Paramahamsa. Then how can a small-minded
woman like me know you? (20)
O Sri Krishna, Vasudeva, Devakinandana, beloved child of
Nandagopa, Govinda, may we again and again salute you.(21)
From whose navel is the birthplace of Lord Brahma
The lotus has appeared, to you who wear garlands of beautiful
lotuses, whose eyes are like lotuses, whose feet are marked with lotuses, may
my repeated salutations be to you.(22)
O Hrishikesha, imprisoned by the wicked Kamsa and numerous
As we protect Devaki who is in mourning for the day
You have protected me and my sons from time to time. You are our
master. You are almighty. (Crisis-relief) How many cases should be told? You
have protected us from poison, from the terrible fire of Lakshagriha, from the
clutches of demons like Hidimba, from the deputations of the wicked, from the
calamities of exile, from the weapons of the Maharathyas during many wars and
now from the Brahmastra of Ashwatthama. (23-24)
Oh Jagadguru, step by step in our life
Troubles keep coming to us, because only in times of trouble
We have a definite darshan and after darshan the birth-
There is salvation from the cycle of death itself. (25)
Arrogant because of birth in a high clan, learning and wealth
People who have become can't take their names. Because we give
darshan only to those who do not have worldly objects and lusts.(26)
You are the wealth of the poor. Maya is present to us
can't touch We rejoice in Atmananda
You are very calm. You are the master of salvation. I salute you
again and again. (27)
I am eternal, infinite, all-pervading, all-encompassing
Niyanta is considered to be the Lord who is in the form of time.
Because of discrimination, we communicate equally among all who
are at odds with each other.(28)
Lord, when you play like a human being,
No one understands what you want to do then.
No one is dear to you, no one is unpleasant. However, people's
wisdom regarding us is different. (29)
You are the soul of the universe, the embodiment of the universe.
We neither take birth nor do karma. However, we take birth in the
yoni of animals, birds, humans, sages, aquatics, etc. and perform divine deeds
according to those yoni. This is our Leela. (30)
Mother Yashoda when we broke the camp of curds
Angry and she took a rope in her hand to tie us. Seeing that,
tears came to my eyes, so the dirt started flowing from my cheeks, my eyes were
filled with tears and I stood with my head down, I am fascinated by the memory
of that green image of mine. (31)
Explaining the reason why we were born in spite of being unborn,
some sages say that just as sandalwood trees appear there to spread the fame of
the Malay mountain, so we have incarnated in the lineage of our beloved devotee
Punyasloka King Yadu to spread his fame.(32)
Others say that Vasudeva was predeceased by Devaki
This is what God asked of us in birth (in the form of Sutapa and
Prishni), that is why we, though unborn, became his sons for the welfare of the
world and the destruction of the demons.(33)
Others say that they drown in the sea
Like a ship, when this earth became unstable, afflicted by the
burden of demons, you appeared to lighten the burden of the earth by the prayer
of Lord Brahma.(34)
Some great men say that people who come
Afflicted in the world by ignorance, lust, and attachment to
karma, they incarnated with the thought of hearing and recollecting Leela.(35)
Devotees frequently listen to his biography, sing,
Delighted by kirtan and remembrance, they immediately see their
lotus feet. Thus their flow of birth and death stops forever.(36)
O God who fulfills the desires of the devotees, you are today
Those who have come to your shelter and shelter
Will you leave us? The sin of killing kings
We have no refuge except our lotus feet. (37)
As if there is no life, the senses become powerless, so we have
not seen, what is the name and appearance of Yaduvanshi or Pandava worth?(38)
O mace bearer, with your unusual footprints
This land of Kurudesha will not remain as beautiful as it is today,
with our departure. (39)
It is through the influence of our vision that this country is
rich and rich
It is enriched with creeper-trees. These forests, these mountains,
rivers
And even the seas are increasing with our gaze. (40)
You are the lord of the universe, the soul and the universe.
I am very fond of Yaduvanshi and Pandavas. You should break my
ties. (41)
Shri Krishna, just as the Ganges streams unceasingly to the sea
In the same way, let my intellect not wander here and there and
keep loving only you continuously. (42)
O Lord Krishna, Arjuna's beloved companion, the head of the Yadu
dynasty,
You, the giants in royal garb who burdened the earth
You are like fire to burn. Our power is infinite. O Govinda, this
incarnation of yours is to remove the miseries of cows, Brahmins and deities.
Yogeshwara, Lord of Charachara, I salute you.'(43)
Suta said - thus Kunti great mellow
Words describe more and more of the Leelas of God. Hearing all
this, Lord Krishna began to smile softly, enticing Kunti with his love. (44)
He said to Kunti, "Okay" and from there
Returned to Hastinapura. After taking leave of Kunti, Subhadra,
etc., when he started to go to Dwarka, King Yudhishthira stopped him with great
love. (45)
King Yudhishthira was very sad because his brothers were killed
Was sad. Maharishi like Vyasa who knew the meaning of Lord's
Leelas and Lord Shri Krishna himself who showed wonderful character tried hard
to make him understand by narrating many historical incidents. But he was not
satisfied, he continued to mourn. (46)
Shaunakadi sages, your adopted son, King Yudhishthira
Thinking of the slaughter of his relatives, he became fond and
infatuated by his imprudent mind and said - Look at the ignorance that has
strengthened in the heart of my evil soul! For this body, which was the food of
foxes and dogs, I destroyed many *Akshauhini armies.(47-48)
I have betrayed children, Brahmins, brothers, friends, uncles,
brothers and teachers. Even after billions of years I will not be freed from
hell.(49)
The king made the subjects obey the enemies in the crusade
According to this scripture, there is no sin in killing
But I am not satisfied. (50)
By me for killing the husbands and brothers of women
The expiation sacrifice for the crime they have committed-
I will not be able to do it even with Yagadi Karmas.(51)
Just as muddy water cannot be purified by mud,
Alcohol alone cannot remove the impurity of alcohol,
Similarly, many violent sacrifices do not atone for the killing of
even one animal. (52)
