Chapter – 352 – The legend
of Lord Krishna - 200
King Pareekshith speaks “
Oh! Mahabhaga, the women of cowherds could not take their eyes off from the marvelous appearance of Krishna, they were in trance listening to his melodious
music on flute and his compassionate eyes arrested the attention of the
Vrajeshwaris. The illustrious Rishis
and Sages, constantly listening to the glorious myths and his passionate sport of
Krishna captured the attention of Krishna through their ears and the
countless poets enticed by the passionate sports of Krishna, and the
illustrious Kings who were fervent devotees of Krishna fought against him in
the greatest battle of Kurukshetra and attained the lotus feet of Krishna. Oh! Bhramin, it is unfortunate that having
the supreme Lord Krishna as the chief of Yadhava, the Vrishnis failed to follow
the advice of him and protect their clan, finally, they had to meet their
destruction at the curse of illustrious Rishis.”
In Dwaraka, the Vrishnis
watched silently at Krishna leaving the palace, many people were left the
palace in extreme disappointment and agony remembered the words of Krishna
that the Dwara will submerge in the water in no time, the Vrishnis looked at
each other in extreme distress and left the palace. They have realized that no prowess
left with them; they have lost Krishna and Balarama forever and no one to
protect them. The people of Dwaraka,
women, elderly people, and children arrived in Prabhasa Theertha. It was the evening hours, the Vrishnis took
pleasure in the intoxicating drink and completely lost their consciousness;
they recollected the stories from Mahabharath, in that Krishna left his
powerful Narayanisena with the Kauravas and stood all alone with the
Pandavas. In that battle many warriors
of Kaurava were killed, Vrishinis were discussing the loss of Abimanyu
and numerous warriors in the battle, finally they had a huge argument, engaged in
fierce clash and killed each other, like the untamed herds of elephant in the
woods. They found the absence of weapons
to attack each other, eventually, they took hold of the sword-like grasses from
the seashore and fought with that forgot all their relationship, sons were
killed fathers, brothers killed brothers and in-laws, there was no relationship
left between them, they fiercely fought each other. Soon, Krishna intervened and requested the
children to stop was handled him harshly by the children, Balarama who could
not bear the attack on Krishna, rushed to the scene was threatened to
kill. Balarama understood the children
have lost their consciousness, so it is meaningless to talk to them, left the scene in extreme disappointment.
