DeviDevaki approached Krishna and requested him to bring back her six children died in the hands of Kamsa. “ Oh! Krishna,  Oh! Rama,  Oh! Yogeshwareshwara,  Oh! Aprameyathma, you symbolize Veda, you are the creator of Universe and its living beings, I have understood you have incarnated on the Earth to reduce her burden.  You have to get back our children lost in the hands of Kamsa, I would love to hold them once again. Kindly, bring them back as a Dhakshina to your parents.”  Thus, Rama and Krishna conducted a thorough search for the children, finally arrived in the Suthalaloka of Mahabali.  He eulogized Krishna “ Oh!, Anantha, Oh! Krishna who is eulogized by Vedas, Oh! Paramathma who symbolizes Sankhya philosophies, Oh! Supreme Bhramam, I shall repeatedly prostrate before you.”  Mahabali gave back those six children of Devi Devaki, eventually, Krishna and Rama returned to Dwaraka.  The children who died in the hands of Kamsa were the children of Hiranyakashipu in their previous birth.  Prahlada was the only ardent devotee of Lord Krishna, the rest of his brothers was not willing to worship Lord Hari.  Later, they had to take birth as children of Devi Devaki and Vasudeva and faced brutal death in the hands of Kamsa.  The moment Devi Devaki saw her children, she forgot all her sorrows, instantly fell in love with them.  Thus, those six children born in the womb of Devi Devaki who carried the supreme Lord in her womb as well got relieved from their sins instantly.

King Pareekshith speaks “ Oh! Bhraman, kindly narrate the legend of Rama and Krishna, and my Pithamaha as well.”

Shuka Bhramam speaks “ Oh! Rajan, Pandavas miraculously escaped from the wax house set to fire by the emissary of Duryodhana, they have crossed several miles and arrived in The Kingdom of Panchala.  They saw there were several Bhramins moving towards the Palace of King of Panchala, Pandavas enquired the reason for their visit.  They informed that it was the grand wedding celebration of Devi Drupadhi who is the daughter of King Drupadha.  Pandavas were already exhausted, tired of wandering all over in the woods and caves without any food, Bheema expressed his need to have meals urgently.  Thus, they have decided to attend the wedding, they were disguised in the form of twice-born.  Devi Kunthi revealed her inability to walk around, so she has stayed back in the hut of a potter.”
