Chapter – 359 – The legend of Lord Krishna -  207

Shuka Bhramam speaks “ Oh! Rajan, in this Kali era, the supreme Lord Vishnu will incarnate as Kalki.  The Jagathpathi would be born to the virtuous Bhramin couple in the village of Shambala, would mount on a horseback, holding Devadaththam/powerful sword, to destroy the wicked on the Earth and once again free the Earth from the influence of the Kali era.  An ignorant will not have the knowledge of the human body that has to face ruin, one day it would become food for the worms or burn into ashes, and during the lifetime he/she engages in various atrocities and undergoes hellish torture while living on the Earth.  The Mother Earth will laugh at the living beings in mockery, seeing their pathetic state, chasing for material well-being and futile effort to own the Earth without even the knowledge of its impermanent nature, and unaware of his own death.  She laughs at the people while preparing to conquer the Earth, without the knowledge that they are constantly chased by Lord Mrithyu, finally disappear from the Earth. The people will constantly chase after material comforts, without getting satisfied in any of the matters, finally get distressed.  The major part of the Earth is surrounded by water, if the Mother earth pulls herself inside the water, the whole world will submerge underwater, Alas! The people in the Kali era will not even exist.  Oh! Rajan, the Earth was ruled by numerous Emperors and wise rulers; they had to leave the Earth empty-handed.  Therefore, we have taken birth on this Earth to elevate our souls while living in the material comforts without getting attached to it. Oh! Rajan, I have narrated the legends of most eminent and powerful rulers on the Earth, after listening to their stories; you should have Vairagya/sense of abandonment, Vignana/wisdom and Viveka/perfect judgment. Oh! Rajan, you must have thoroughly understood whom should you contemplate upon and what should not get attached in the life on Earth.  The people who have not turned their mind and intellect on the supreme soul resides as a soul in living beings, will not attain freedom from the cycles of birth and death. Oh! Rajan, elevate your soul listening to the glorious myths sung in praise of Uththamasloka, on a regular basis that would provide intense devotion at the lotus feet of Supreme Lord Krishna.”
