Krishna-The Enigmatic Deceiver (Part-2)

After a few years both Krishna and Balrama are sent to the Ashram of Guru Sandipani who educates both of them very well.

After the education of Balrama and Krishna is completed, Krishna asks his Guru Sandipani that what does he want for Gurudakshina or the offerings given to Guru by the students or disciples; at first Sandipani refuses for any Gurudakshina but Krishna forces him to ask for it.

Sandipani asks Krishna to rescue his son who has disappeared in the ocean at ‘Prabhas’; Krishna and Balrama both travelled to Prabhas and discovered that Sandipani’s son was kidnapped by a demon named ‘Sankhasura’ both of them fought with the demon and rescued the kid.

Then returned him back to Sandipani and he became extremely contened and blessed both of them.

After this incident Krishna and Balrama became renowed as very dangerous and strong warriors and were never defeated in a single battle, Krishna was also had mastery in ancient Indian martial arts named ‘Kalari Pattu’ and Krishna also taught this to his army soldiers and his army was one of the most feared ones, in the epic Mahabharata Krishna is considered as the strongest warrior Arjun himself said Krishna to be the most dangerous warrior.

Afterwards they return to Vrindavan and planned to go to Mathura to slay evil Kansa.

Balrama, Subhadra and Krishna go to Mathura and go to the palace of Kansa and in the battle field Kansa first sends 4 fierce tigers but they get defeated by Krishna, then he sends 2 powerful wrestlers but they also get killed by Krishna and Balrama easily.

At last Kansa himself arrives to fight with Krishna alone, as he arrives in the battlefield he sees Krishna and becomes scared of his strength and personality; Krishna then starts coming towards Kansa with an enigmatic smile.

Kansa’s sword slips in fear upon seeing his nephew coming towards and Kansa tries to run away but by the time Krishna catches him by his hair and it becomes impossible for Kansa to escape from Krishna’s grip; then Krishna throws him against the ground and chocks him for his every sin he committed and ultimately slays Kansa at the age of 16 years.

After the slaying Kansa flowers were showered above both Krishna and Balrama by gods and people cheered for both of them; the Krishna and Balrama free both Devaki and Vasudev from prison also their grandfather and Krishna becomes the leading prince, Subhadra becomes the princess and Balrama also becomes the prince.

After a few years Krishna becomes the King of Mathura another king named ‘Jarasandh’ became jealous of Krishna and declared a war but at last he was badly defeated by Krishna and Balrama in 16 wars and was left without an army and pleaded to Krishna for his life due to kindness Krishna always forgiven Jarasandha.

After a few years Krishna settles his kingdom in the current Gujrat and named his kingdom ‘Dwarka’ after this only he was named ‘Dwarka Dhish’.

Krishna befriends the Pandavas and other princes of the Kuru Dynasty there are many legends of Krishna associated with the epic Mahabharata like:

Krishna saves Draupadi from Cheer Haran by providing endless amount of cloth to her by his supernatural powers which was done for humiliating Draupadi and Pandavas and all this was done by Duryodhana, Dusashan and Shakuni; a vow was made by Bheem that he will tear apart the chest of Dusashan and will drink his blood Bheema also made another vow that he will break the thigh of Duryodhana which was fulfilled by Bheem during the Kurukshetra war;  during Cheer Haran the other 4 Pandavas were full of rage and anger for the way Draupadi was getting humiliated.

When Pandavas were in their exile Janardan Krishna visited them as soon as he came to know this; after Draupadi saw Krishna in her front she became emotional and started crying and told everything Kauravs has with her.

Krishna made her calm down and said that ‘the bodies of the people who have done this with you will be lying in the battlefield of Kurukshetra and whenever Pandavas will need support I will always be with you all.

Madhusudan helps the Pandavas in all ways during their exile with Draupadi, like eating a grain of rice from the Akshay Patra and fulfilling the hunger of Muni Durvasa and his 1000 disciples who were asked to go in the place where Pandavas were spending their exile by Duryodhana.

Later Madhusudan becomes the charioteer of Arjun in the Kurukshetra war and preaches the divine Bhagwat Geeta to Arjun and finally Pandavas win the deadly dangerous and war.

Therefore, this was the mighty saga of Shree Krishna and he is totally Enigmatic…..
