Then when intoxicated Balaraam was sporting happily and at will with the damsels, he
called over Yamuna to him. When Yamuna did not comply to his wishes he subdued her by
turning her course. At that time Paundraka Vaasudeva misled by the ill advice of his
subordinates, sent a messenger to Thee.

Kaustubha) and wearing also fish shaped ear ornaments and a yellow silk garment.

It may be due to stupidity or due to believing the immature words of young people that
Paundraka for long firmly believed in his mind that he himself was indeed Vaasudeva. This
thought made him constantly be in oneness with Thee and so he attained Saayujya (union
with Thee). Who knows whose good deeds lead him where and to what credit?

Then the son of the king of Kaashi, called Sudakshina fervently worshipped Shankara. He

Long ago Vividha, the monkey who had helped Thee in killing the Raakshasas (during Thy
incarnation as Raama) nursed the desire to be killed by Thy part incarnation. As a minister
of Narakaasura, he took to evil ways and started creating sufferings for the people in the
vicinity of Dwaarika. In a fight with Balaraama, he was killed with ease by a blow of
Balaraam's hand in no time.

Saamba was a captive of the Kurus because he had abducted their daughter. Balaraam
went to the Kurus to pacify them but was enraged by their talks and lifted up Hastinaapur
and released Saamba. Thou did not send the Yaadava army to confront them, because
Thou wanted that the Kurus be killed by the Paandavas. Thou whose sporting ways are
unfathomable, O Lord of Guruvaayur! I worship Thee so as to remove my sufferings.
