village were in deep sleep. All this had been pre planned by the
Lord.[ Nothing is impossible if it is planned by God himself.
Pujya Sri Swamiji says several times that He can get things
done even by a donkey. Imagine Vasudeva carrying the lord of
the universe on his head. The Lord who provides support to all
the animate and inanimate beings in the universe is being carried
by Vasudeva. How lucky was vasudeva ??? !!!.As Vasudeva was
proceeding, there was a heavy down pour of rain when Adisesha
came and protected the small child.
Crossing of the River Yamuna:When Vasudeva had to cross the
river Yamuna, just stopped its flow and gave way to
Vasudeva.[Krishna Maya].
Vasudeva walked through the paved river and reached the other
side of it without any fear and hesitation as instructed by Lord
Krishna.
[Here we are reminded of the sea giving way to Rama when
Rama had to cross the sea. This simile here tells us that Rama
and Krishna, both are the incarnations of Lord Vishnu and hence
is the simile for us to remember Ramayana also.]

Yashoda( who was tired after the delivery and picked up the girl
baby lying in Yashoda's bed and in the same pace returned back
to the prison and put her in Devaki's bed.At once after
everything is being administered as per Krishna's Master plan,
with a loud cry of Yoga Maya everybody woke up and rushed to
inform Kamsa of the child birth.
Kamsa after looking at Yoga Maya got wild since it was the eigth
child who was supposed to be his slayer and hence with rage, hit
her to a stone nearby. Within no time, Yoga Maya skipped from
the hands of Kamsa, flew into the air and shouted saying that
there was no use of killing her since his previous enemy would
definitely come to see his end for killing seven small children who
were born to Devaki and Vasudeva, a dreadful deed which was
unpardonable..Saying that with eight hands,Yoga Maya
manifested as kalika,Vijaya Chamunda and flew to Kasi as Mata
Annapurna.
Kamsa was totally aghast and fell at the feet of Vasudeva and
Devaki and with repentance released them from prison. Kamsa
discussed with his Ministers who misguided Kamsa that they
would damage penance of the sages, cease all the cows, sages,
satya, compassion and yagna so that their energy,strength and
Shakthi would come down and that of these people of Kamsa
would increase. Kamsa and his ministers decide to kill all the

Their main property being the cattle, all the cows were decked
with ornaments and clothes & the goshalas were cleaned
thoroughly to Rejoice the birth of Lord Krishna and Bala Rama.
The Village "Nanda vraja" was flourishing with abundance of Milk
and curds to reflect the gay and happy mood of the villagers.
Yashoda was totally engrossed in child care. The lullaby sheused
to sing was

Nanda Maharaj had to immediately plan for the last rites of the
physical body of Putana. Since was very huge, Nanda appointed
people to cut the body into pieces and to burn them. Though the
body of Putana was fiery and vicious, the smell as it was burnt
was very pleasant since Krishna brought positive change to her
body ( Samskara ) by being fed.

5.Sadguru is the only soap:We come into this world with the
vasanas of the previous birth. If they are good it is fine. If they
are little bad with samskaras they get rectified. But if they are in
large numbers no soap or detergent can cleanse the bad odour. It
is only Sadguru that can act as a cleansing agent and wash our
sins and help us tread the right path.
All of us are very fortunate for being with our Reverential Datta
Sadguru.

With this incident yashoda was very much upset and stunned.
The Boy was not growing in an ordinary manner. He played, ate
well, but at times he never behaved like a smallkid. Yashoda was
worried and she lived in Upasana of Lord Krishna remaining in
silence and awe. The boy wanted His mother to sleep since she
was tired and stressed. He was trying to put her to sleep by
yawning.( If a person yawns,t he other person also yawns
consequently and feels sleepy).But she remained still and quiet.
Hence the boy kept on opening his mouth wide and wide to
make her also yawn to put her to sleep. But as he was opening

Another reason for His visiting so many houses was that He had
to feed fourteen lokas present within Him. He used to run from
House to House to create funny problems among the family
members of that house.
Once Krishna took a calf to one of the households and tied its
tail to the daughter in law's plait when she was asleep. Suddenly
when the calf wanted to run, it pulled the lady and she got
terrified by the impulse. Everybody questioned her as to why she
shouted. When she wanted to tell about the calf, it ran away
leaving everybody in suspicion for the lady. But never did Krishna
create a serious problem to anybody.

Gopikas sang:

Oh!Yashoda! Your son is stealing Milk and curds from our houses
and do not allow them to remain in our houses, due to which we
want to leave Gokulam and go to some other place.

Yashoda felt very bad and prayed to all of them and promised
hat she would control the mischief of Krishna.
Bala Rama was very strict and watched over Krishn very
keenly.One such time,Krishna swallowed mud. Bala Rama
informed Yashoda about this deed of Krishna. Having been fed up
of several complaints against Krishna by innumerable number of
people, Yashoda caught hold of Krishna and questioned as to why
He ate mud. Krishna Said!!!
This was for the first time that Krishna spoke, rather started to
speak with the word AMMA!!

and surprise, she was able to see all the lokas (Padunaalgu
Bhuvana Bhandammulu-All the 14 worlds above and below. )
She totally forgot what she was looking at. She wondered
whether it was a dream or ‘Vaishnava Maya’ if it was specially
intended for her or if that was the final Truth??Having been
totally perplexed, Yashoda was doubtful about her existence itself.
She doubted whether she was in Gokulam or in a different placet
o witness this grandeur. She wondered whether she was that
fortunate tow itness such a miracle.Yashoda became
speechless.Krishna was scared of Yashoda's condition and took
back His Viswarupa and went back to his normal human form.

In the process of churning, the butter milk spilled out and fell on
the face and body of Lord Krishna. He being Neela Megha
Shyama(Dark as it almost looks blue, metaphorising the
sky),enjoyed white bubbles of buttermilk which decked his body
Page 37

and shone like stars in the sky. Krishna called every one and
explained how happy he was. Yashoda was ecstatic in joy at her
son’s perspective.
Krishna asked for milk, again and again and yet again…there
are 14 lokas in Him, and that act symbolized his need to look
after them all. One such time, Krishna smeared His face with
butter and held in His hands to take it out and distribute to
others. Yashoda entered and Krishna was caught red handed…

Krishna was not with in the reach of Lakshmi, Vedas, or any
other sages but was caught in the lap of Mother. He went to her
only after she threw the stick and not when she had it in her

Among the intellectuals, there is a demon called EGO, without
which an intellectual becomes a Gnani to perfection.
Since Krishna was very naughty, she was upset and inspite of
herself, had to punish him for the sake of the villagers and tied
Him to a grinder(a huge stone churner)- (Rolu)with ropes How
much ever she tried to tie Him, she was falling short of the rope
miraculously. He was pretending to be very innocent, trying to
escape at the earliest. In the meanwhile He asked mother for
Butter. She went inside, ever loving as she was .The moment she
left, Krishna noticed two tall trees at a distance. He thought that
the rope would get cut when it was kept between the trees. He
rolled himself to the trees , dragging the grinder along. He
placed the grinder between the two trees and pulled the rope
and with a huge ‘phela phela’ sound, the trees fell down and He
got rid of the rope. People around Him were aghast and
informed to his parents about the amazing power and strength
of Krishna, who never agreed with them about his divine
involvement in the incident.Yashodamma was alas, again
flabbergasted and dumbfounded!

Bakasure vadha:
After this vadha(slain), all the friends of Krishna and Bala Rama
relaxed near a lake,o n the opposite side of which, they saw a
crane and wasl ooking like a broken piece of mountain. It was
staring at Krishna without ablink.It was infact an Asura sent by
Kamsa to kill Krishna.T he crane like Asura flew into the air
causing the felling of many trees. He suddenly swallowed Krishna.
Having gone into the neck part of the Asura ,he settled across his
throat which caused severe burning sensation to the Asura. Asura
having not been able to hold Krishna in his throat pushed out of
his mouth and Krishna tore the jaws of Asura and killed
him..Looking at this amazing deed, ever y one from heaven sang
the songs of Krishna's glory.

Story of Aghasura:
When all the Goapalas were enjoying with Krishna and
BalaRama, there appeared an enormously huge Python. He was
none other than Aghasura,t he brother of Bakasura who was
killed by Krishna. Aghasura's strength was so much that even
Angels were scared of the demon Aghasura. He was lying down
on the way from where the cows, calves and Gopalas were to
walk.Krishna was about to warn them abou tt he danger but the
Gopalas proceeded since they were confident of Lord Krishna’s
presence with them.

Enjoyment of lunch:
At lunch time, Krishna also ate with them; with a cloth
tied across his waist to hold his flute ( Kommu Bura) and a
kolafixed under the arm, Krishna was enjoying the rice with curd
and sipping thepickle pieces. During that time they realized that
some of the calves and cows went astray .Realising this,Krishna
inthe same attire and hand,left in search of the cattle.
That was the time when Brahma looked at the cows and Gopalas
staying in the absence of Krishna and placed them all in a
place.Krishna went round in search of the missing animals and
came back since He did not find them anywhere. By the time He
returned, there was not a single Gapala nor a cow. Within no
time Krishnaunderstood Brahma'sinvolvement in this deed and
Page 46
Maha Vishnu Sapthaham
from His own body He created similar Gopalas and cows (their
replicas).That wasKrishna!!
Just before a week after one year, one day Bala Rama while
observing all the Gopalas and cows very keenly, suddenly realized
that He literally found Lord Krishna in every being over there.
Having understood the difference He asked Krishna why he was
finding Lord Krishna in every being when prior to this Bala
Rama always considered Cows as Rishis and Gopalas as
Devatas.( with theirAmsha)
Page 47
Maha Vishnu Sapthaham
One day, Krishna along with his friends and cows went to a
forest.
There was a river by name ,Kalindi. The thirsty cows and his
friends drank water from the lake and lost their lives.
Krishna understood that the water was contaminated with the
poison secreted and released by a dreadful snake by name
Kaliiyudu.
Immediately Balakrishna with his nectarine looks brought them
back to life.
Page 48

They were all happyfor the grace they had from Lord Krishna in
getting back their lives.
Page 49

only Balarama who was not perturbed since, he knew the divine
power of Lord Krishna. All of them were prepared to jump into
the lake and were warned by Krishna. Krishna beat on the five
hoods of Kaliya vigorously. Later, Krishna caught hold of Kaliya’s
jaws, and rotated them in high speed. With this, the poisionous
fire oozed out from the eyes of the Kaliya.
Page 50
Maha Vishnu Sapthaham
Till then Krishna had been dancing holding the tail of Kaliya in
his left hand (Tail representets chanchalam-instability and fickle
nature). The group of snakes also pleaded Lord Krishna that it
was all His creation. The form poison and cruelty were given by
Him and that Krishna was responsible and cause of such lives of
all of them. They also requested Krishna to show them a correct
path. ( Whoever listens and speaks of this Kaliya Mardhana
chapter will get relieved of wrong deeds of them if there were
any).

friends. He left Ramanaka Island and decided to hide him self in
a lake beside Yamuna. There was a reason for Kaliya to select
this lake.

Among the lot,some women missed out since their husbands did
not allow them to go to see Krishna. More over,they tied them
with ropes. When the women,(wives of priests) stayed back with
Krishna, He instructed them to go back immediately, the women
resisted. Hence Krishna went to Yagashala, met all the priests
and the remaining women and blessed all of them. The priests
too realized their mistake after they saw Lord Krishna. DATTA

First they started watering the plants and trees. While pouring
water,He suggested to think that it was GHEE which they were
supposed to pour in Homagunda,( Fire pit) while uttering the
Mantra. That was how Krishna brought a revolution and
awareness among people to take care of the available resources.
When Indra came to know that the Yagna intended to be
performed to please him was stopped, Indra got furious and
ordered “Pralaya Kaala Megha” the most dangerous cloud to go
in the form of a horrible rain and trouble people and animals in
Krishna’s place.

of His left hand and provided a huge shelter to all the people and
cattle for seven continuous days since it rained for seven days
heavily. On the 8th day, there was Sun rise looking at which
Krishna decided that the rain was tired and went back and
released all of them.
