NARAYANEEYAM DASAKAM - 56- KAALIYA GARVA SAMANAM AND BHAGAWATH ANUGRAHAM


Dasakam - 56- Kaaliya Garva Samanam and 
Bhagawath Anugraham








Krishna, for long time, danced on the raised hoods of Kaaliya with his lotus feet, for the tunes of  musical sound made by Devas on dundhubhi, a drum type instrument and songs rendered by the beautiful celestial damsels, with his ear drops too dancing along with him. Krishna played around for long time, dancing on the hoods with his lotus feet, clapping hands beautifully in rhythm with dancing on hoods of Kaaliya which raised up, leaving the ones which dropped down.

The hoods were getting crushed under Krishna's feet and soon Kaaliya became tired and expelled blood making the waters of the river Yamuna red. When all the hoods started to droop in fatigue, the serpent wives surrendered at the feet of Lord with humility. Having known the mighty valour of the Lord, they sang such praises of Lord, which were not even sung by even Devarishis and requested that their husband be spared.

Overcome with melting compassion, Krishna took his feet off Kaaliya, who immediately surrendered at Lord's lotus feet along with his wives. Krishna directed Kaaliya to go to Ramanaka Island, situated in the middle of the ocean and promised that he will not be disturbed by Garuda there. Respecting the words of Krishna, serpent king Kaaliya left to Ramanakam island with his wives immediately.

Krishna dressed himself with the priceless gems and jewels gifted by the wives of serpent king and reached the shore by the evening. Gopas greeted Krishna with tears of joy. It became dark by then and hence, Krishna and gopas could not return to Vraja. They decided to stay back in the forest for the night.

Gopas were sleeping on the banks of the river in the shelter of Krishna's feet. A forest fire engulfed them at the middle of night on all four sides. Gopas awakened by the forest fire, cried to Krishna for help. Krishna drank the fire to protect the gopas. It is no surprise as Lord's face itself is agni.

Gopas appreciated the fact that earlier, the Peethathvam or yellowness was only found in agni or fire as colour, but now due to his action, it can be perfectly called Peethathvam (act of drinking in the verb form). Bhattathiri prayed to the Lord Guruvayoorappan to remove his sins and afflictions.
