Shuka Bhramam speaks" Oh! Rajan, once, Krishna and the
children of cowherds took the cows and calves in the woods, while grazing, the
cows and calves arrived in the middle of dense forest. It was scorching heat in Vrindavan, the cows
and calves felt extremely thirsty left in the middle of the dense forest. Krishna and the children went in search for the
herds of cows; finally, they were located and decided to leave the forest with
the herds of the cow. Immediately, the dried
grass caught in flame, eventually it spread all over the forest. The children of cowherds were terrified to
watch the colossal fire coming from all the direction of Munjjavanam to swallow
them. They cried out loudly praying “
Oh! Krishna, Oh! Krishna, Oh! Amithavikrama, Oh! Rama, we have no one other
than you, we are already surrendered to you, kindly protect us.” Krishna comforted the children and asked to
keep their eyes closed. He swallowed the
colossal fire with the power of Yoga.
That day, the children of cowherds understood, Krishna is not an
ordinary cow herd. Krishna took all the
children and cows and calves with him and returned to the place where they have
started a journey for grazing the cows. " In
this legend, Krishna taught us the greatest knowledge to be in peace with the
Prakrithi/nature which possesses immense power, like a fisherman who crosses
several miles of the huge ocean waves without fear. Prakrithi can destroy the Sthoolashareera,
not the Sookshma Shareera, Prakrithi cannot destroy the mind and intellect that
originated from the supreme soul.
