of Lord Krishna – 8
Lord Bhrama was accompanied by
deities arrived in the prison and eulogized the supreme Lord Hari who is in the womb
of Devi Devaki. Lord Bhrama praised “Oh!
Lord, you are absolute truth, resides as a soul in living beings, you are
eternal, you are the source of truth, you are the essence of truth, you are
beyond truth, you reside as a subtle form of truth in the living beings, you
represent Thrisathyam/past, present, and future, and you are void of the Thrisathyam,
you are attainable to the individuals who have a thorough knowledge of supreme soul, serenity
of mind and a balanced state of mind, to accept all the happenings in life as
the grace of Lord. Oh! Lord, You are the base of the existence of the human body/Adhivriksham, human body functions in the
presence of you, it has two fruits happiness and sorrows, it has three
qualities such as Sathvik, Rajasik, and Thamasik. The human body is capable to enjoy
the three types of Rasa such as Dharma, Artha, Kama, and Moksha, it has five
senses that take pleasure in touch, sound, appearance, liquid, and fragrance,
it has to undergo six status such as birth,
living, sustaining, aging, illness, and death, it has seven components/ Dhathu
such as Thvak, Asthi, Majja, Mamsa, Raktham, Medhas and Shukla. It has eight
branches known as five essential elements and intellect, Ahamkara, it has nine
gates eyes, nose, ears, nose and anus, it has five Gnananindhriyas and
five Prana. There are two birds
Jeevathma and Paramathma in the Vruksha/ tree-like human body. Oh! Bhagavan, you are the absolute truth
resides as the soul in living beings. Oh!
Ambujaksha, You have numerous
incarnations, whoever realize your presence as a soul in them would cross major
crisis in their lives effortlessly like crossing the water-filled in the footprint of cows. Oh! Bhagavan, whoever surrenders at your
lotus feet, would cross the unfathomable ocean of worldly existence at
ease. Oh! Bhagavan, you are the safest
ferry to cross the ocean of miseries of the worldly existence. Oh! Aravindhaksha, the individual who is
reluctant to realize your presence, not willing to surrender at your lotus
feet, not willing to contemplate upon you, would undergo endless miseries and
sorrows of worldly existence, thereby fails to raise the soul and takes several
births. Oh! Madhava, whoever creates
constant companionship with the supreme Lord would remain fearless. Oh! Bhagavan, you are the one raising us from
all kinds of obstacles and protects us.
Oh! Bhagavan, you symbolize Sathvik nature, you are pure and
unblemished, you are supreme soul resides as a soul in living beings, you are the
source of Shreyas to the living beings who are constantly engaged in the practice of Veda, Kriya, Yoga and Samadhi/spiritual and religious rites, etc. Whoever realizes the presence of supreme Lord
as a soul in all living beings and has no specific names or appearance, no birth or
death, he is beyond comparison, the mind and intellect functions with the sole
existence of supreme soul who constantly witnesses the whole Universe performs all the tasks contemplating upon the supreme Lord would elevate their souls. The easiest way to attain the supreme Lord
who resides as the soul is listening to his glorious myths, understanding the
concepts, pondering on it, remembering the numerous sacred names, incarnations,
and various pastimes of Lord. Whoever contemplates upon supreme Lord, surrendering to the lotus feet of Supreme Lord, considering all the happenings
in life as the grace of supreme Lord, would not descend to the miseries and sorrows of worldly
existence. Oh! Bhagavan, the ultimate purpose of your pastimes are to impart the supreme knowledge to us, hence kindly
elevate our soul and bless us. Oh!
Bhagavan you have incarnated as giant Mathsya and Koorma, Narasimha, Varaha,
etc.. in this way you have preserved the three worlds. Oh! Bhagavan, now you have prepared to personify
as one of the Yadhavas, Oh! Yadhooththama, we are repeatedly prostrating before
your lotus feet, kindly eradicate the miseries and sorrows of worldly
existence.” Further, Lord Bhrama and
deities pacified Devi Devaki “ Oh! Mother, do not worry about wicked Kamsa, you
are carrying Jagannivasa in your womb,” and they returned to their respective
abodes.
