English translation
Pronounce of mutual curse between R3dhi TkHJ? ^ cJ2[?T?R I NSrSyana said- O sage, on her entry into the pleasure chamber RSdhika could not find the lord arid finding Viraja having been turned into the form of a stream she returned to her abode.
Thereafter lord Kf^pa finding that his beloved having been turned into a stream, he started crying seated on its bank and said, "O best of the beloved, you come to me immediately, O virtuous lady, O beautiful one, how shall I be able to remain alive without you"?.
You become the best of the streams on earth.
O beautiful one, with my boon you become a beautiful damsel. As a matter of luck you be more beautiful then your original figure because your earlier body has been turned into the stream. Therefore with a beautiful body you emerge out of the water of the stream. O beautiftal one, with that and in view I have bestowed upon you all the siddhis (success.
Thereafter with the permission of lord Krsna, Viraja emerged as Radha herself and stood before Kfspa.
Wearing a yellow lower garment and a serene smile on her face, the lotus faced damsel stood before Kfsna and started looking at him with She was carrying the weight of the heavy pelvic region besides the developed round breasts. She walked like a cow-elephant. She was a best of the beautiful ladies and most virtuous one, she had the complexion of beautiful campaka flower and her lips were resembling the ripe wood-apples. Her teeth were beautifully arrange like the pomegranate. Her face was having the lustre of the full moon of the winter season and her eyes were like blossoming lotus flower. She had a red spot of kasturt on her forehead and she had beautiful hair on the head which was designed in an attractive manner. She wore the ear ornaments studded with gems beside the rosary of jewels. She wore a jewel in the nose and the necklace of jewels adorned her neck. She wore the armlets and wristlets of gems
besides the ornaments of conch. The anklets worn by her produced the dazzling sound.
Finding the beautiful damsel there, the lord of the universe embraced her lovingly and kissing her at the same time.
The lord enjoyed her company in a secluded place and also enjoyed the conjugal pleasure with her again and again. Thereafter the chaste Viraja bore the semen of the lord and was She bore the divine semen of the lord for a hundred year and thereafter she gave birth to Then the beloved of lord Krsna became the mother of seven sons and she started dwelling there with her sons.
Getting attracted towards the make-up she again wandered with the lord in the secluded Vmdavana. At that very moment the youngest son rushed towards her getting afraid from his brothers and sat in her lap.
The merciful lord finding a son looking fearful disowned Viraja. She picked up the child in her lap and lord K|'sna retired to the abode of Radha, after consoling the child and pacifying him Viraja again came to the spot but could not find his beloved Krsna there remaining dissatisfied in the conjugal pleasure, she started crying.
She then cursed her small son. You become the ocean of saline water as a result of which no one would be able to drink your water.
She then cursed her other sons also saying, of you should proceed to the earth, on reaching the present JambQdvIpa, you cannot remain at one place, you remain in seven continents separately and live there quite comfortably you will remain in the secluded place and shall enjoy ^ ourself in the waters of the rivers of the respective continents." Thus the youngest son of Viraja became the ocean of saline water because of the curse pronounced on him by his mother.
Thereafter the youngest son came to his brothers and apprised them about the curse of their mother. All of them felt painful and came to the mother and all of them bowed in reverence to her in devotion and started moving towards the O sage, thus all of them were lodged in the seven continents surrounded by seven oceans.
Thus the area of each one of them was doubled.
All of them became the oceans of saline juice of sugar-cane, wine, ghee, curd, milk and water.
The waters of these oceans would be particularly use for the crops on the earth.
All the seven oceans covered the earth having seven continents thereafter all of them started crying getting separated from the brothers and the mother. Viraja on the other hand getting separated from her husband as well as her sons started crying and she ultimately got fainted.
m wm fg?im <ifiiebmfd:i Finding her so grief-stricken lord Krsna the beloved of Radhika arrived at that place wearing a smile, on his face.
Finding her lord there she stopped crying and also shed away the grief. She was engrossed in the ocean of bliss, because of her getting passionate she held the lord in embrace. The lord on his part felt delighted over Viraja who had been deprived of her sons.
Lord Krsna then expressing pleasure from his face and eyes delightfully spoke to her, "O damsel, I shall surely visit your place daily without fall." You are equally dear to me like Radha and with my blessings you will always have a look at your sons.
Crores of slaves were standing at the main gates while some of them held the canes in their hands and were of comparable age serving as a door keepers. All those gate-keepers prevented from getting in. Finding lord Kr§na there Radha again starts speaking harsh words which were not proper and should not have been spoken being in proper.
Radhika said- O Kfsna, O lord of Viraja, you leave this place and get out of sight, O Hari, you are unstable and the thief of love-sport, you are quite a degraded one. Why do you want to tease me? You immediately proceed to Padmavatl, Manorama, Ratnamala or immensely beautiful O lord of the steam, O lord of the gods, O teacher of the gods, I have known you fully well.
Therefore it will be in your interest to leave this Because you had been always behaving like a degraded person. Therefore you leave this Goloka at once. And dwell on earth as a human being. O Suslla, O Sasikala, O Padmavatl, 0 Madhavl, you remove this cheat from here. What has he to do here?.
On hearing the words of Radhika, the slave cowherdesses spoke to Kfsna, the words which were beneficial truthful, meek and were quite appropriate, suiting the occasion. Some of them said, "O Hari you move to some other place for sometime and after the anger of Radhika is subsided, we shall come to bring you back."
Some one said lovingly, you move to some other place for a moment because Radha's anger has risen to extreme heights because of you.
Therefore to whom shall she speak out her mind.
O sage, some of the slave girls said to the lord, fill such time Radha is brought round you better go to Vrndavana. Some of the cowherdesses spoke jokingly to the lord, "O great lover, you better remove the anger of Radha with Some of them said, you better go to the other damsel. O lord, how shall be able to welcome a Soihe of them said smilingly to the lord. You better go to her and lifting her up, you remove her pride.
Some of them spoke to the lord quite harsh words, ”Who would be competent enough to look at the lotus-like face of the queen.” Some of them said to the lord, ”0 Hari, you go to some other place for a moment and you come back again when her anger subsides.".
Thereafter some out-spoken cowherdesses spoke to the lord, we shall stop your entry into the chamber otherwise you go to your place.
Some of the indiscreet cowherdesses removed the lord from that place and did not allow to move forward but the lord regained peacefiil without anger, wearing a smile on his face and moved from that place.
When the cowherdesses did not allow the lord to enter the chamber of Radha, lord Krsna went to another palace but!§rldam5 was immensely enraged. He went to Radhika and spoke to her, though she was immensely angry and her eyes had become red like the red lotus flowers.
The one who is the lord of Brahma, eternal and the gods and happens to be the cause of all the causes and is served by the goddess of speech, Lak^ml, Maya and Pralq-ti, the one who is Nirguna and always remains with the soul, why do you show such a disrespect to the lord who fiilfils the desires of all. He is the one by serving whom you will become the best of the goddesses and by serving at whose feet you have become the great goddess. O goddess of welfare are, you not fully aware of him. Can I at any time be able to recite his glory.
With his side-glance lord Krsna can create crores of beautiful damsels comparable to your beauty. Are you aware of his personality.
LaksmI the goddess of fortune rinses the feet of the lord with her hair and serves him with the utmost devotion, Sarasvati adore him offering prayers which have soothing effect on the ears like a nectary, are you not aware of such a lord.
Sridama said- O mother, why have you addressed my lord with such harsh-words. O goddess, you have scolded him unthoughtfully without any reason.
Prakiti who happens to be the seed of all, always praise him with devotion. Proud damsel are you not fully aware of him.
All the Vedas recite the glory of the sixteenth, part of the lord but are unable to know about his reality. O damsel, are you not aware of him. O goddess, Brahma, the creator of the Vedas go on reciting his glory with all the four mouths and serve at his lotus-like feet. Siva the lord of yogis with his five mouths always recites his glory and also serves at his lotus-like feet and with his mind filled with emotion he serves as his lotus¬ like feet. Sesa recited his glory with thousands of his moths with devotion and also served at his lotus-like feet. Dharma protects all besides being the witness of all he also serve at his feet being the lord of all. Visnu the resident of Sveta-dvipa who is all-pervading happens to be an ams'a of the lord and has taken to the eternal form. All the gods, demons, sages, ascetics, intellectuals and humans continuously serve at his lotus-like feet but are unable to visualise him even in dream,
you must serve at the lotus-like feet of lord Hari shedding away your anger because he can reduce the earth to ashes with a simple side-glance.
With the twinkling of an eye of the lord, Brahma vanishes and with the spending of single day of the lord twenty eight Indras disappear. O Radha, he is the one having the age of hundred and eight years, the entire universe and the goddesses are being controlled by the same lord.
O Brahman, on hearing the words of Srldama which were quite harsh, Radha the beloved of lord was immensely enraged. At that point of time burning with rage her lips were uttering, the hair was dishevelled, the eyes became red like red lotus dower. She then came out and spoke very harsh-words.
Radhika said- O degraded one, a food and servant of a thief, listen to me. You are well aware of everything I am not aware of your lord.
O degraded one, lord Krsna happens to be your lord alone and not of we people. Therefore, you get lost from here I am quite well-aware that you always praise your father and denounce your O foolish one, as the demons always denounce the gods similarly you have always been denouncing me. You will therefore, become a demon. O cowherd, you will fall from Goloka and will be bom as a demon on earth. O foolish one, I have pronounced a curse on you. 1 shall see who comes to your rescue, Thus sneaking Radha, the goddess of the divine dance kept quiet and when she went to sleep her female friends started moving the fly-whisks with the handles decorated with gems.
But on the other hand on hearing the words of Radha, the lips of Sridama also started uttering, he also cursed her to be bom in a human race.
Sridama said- O mother your anger is like an ordinary human being Therefore, with my curse you will also be bom as a human being on earth.
There is no doubt about it. With the shadow of the eternal force you will appear on earth but the foolish people will call you as the wife of Ray ana. Vaisya, who will be bom of the Goloka of lord Kfsna in Vmdavana.
Because of the curse of Radha he would become a Mahdyogi in his mothers womb and shall be reborn as such. Thereafter you will achieve lord Krsna Gokula and shall roam about with him in the forest.
Thereafter you will be separated from the lord for a hundred years and thereafter getting united with him you would return to Goloka, rT ^ 'tT IT wm it: 3T:l Thus speaking to her and bowing before her Sridama went to the lord. He bowed in reverence to him and narrated to him the incident of the pronouncing of the curse.
He started crying again and again. At that point of time the lord said to him. Now you proceed on to the earth. There will be no other demon in the three worlds to over-power you.
You will be the king of the demons and in due course of time you will meet with your end with the striking of the trident of Siva and come back to Goloka, I am going to bless you that you will remain there for fifty yugas. On hearing the won of lord Krsna, Sridama felt grief-stricken and spoke to him, I accept your command but you do not deprive me of your devotion on earth at any time. Thus speaking he bowed before the lord and came out of his ds'rama, flftgrarsftr g- gr nigT -grtg ^Trfgf?T:i Radha also started following him and started speaking while weeping bitterly. O son, where are you going? Thus speaking she lamented again and again. Sridama also bowed in reverence to her and cried aloud for a long time.
Ultimately he became Sarhkhacuda >and husband of Tulasl.
At the departure of SrldamS, RSdha also went to lord Krsna and narrated the entire story to him.
The lord then spoke to her.
Finding Radha engrossed in grief lord Krsna consoled her variously. In due course of time again became the attendants of the TOTT T3nmr snnff #niT ot?i O sage, Radha went to the earth at the time of Varaha incarnation of Visnu and was bom in Gokula in the house of Vrsabhanu.
Thus I have narrated to you the entire story of lord Kr§na which provides welfare in all the times and all the people desire to listen to it.
What else do you want to listen from me?
