Vidura meets Sage Maithreya

Pareekshith got a doubt.He questioned Sree Suka Maharshi  like this.Hey great soul!great yaadava warriors died killing among themselves without any reason or rhyme.Even Lord Sree Krishna also left this world.But then,how come Uddhava ,was still alive?

Sree Suka cleared Pareekshiths doubt.Hey King!Krishna decided to leave this materialistic world.He wanted some one as knowledgeable as him to propagate the knowledge to remaining good people.For that he felt tha Uddhava was the apt person.So,he left him to do the needful.

Uddhava went on his way.Vidura moved on to Haridwara.There he met Sage Maithreya and saluted him.Vidura requested Maithreya to enlighten him on many important issues.Hey great sage!people would do many things in search of happiness.But they end up in misery.God is impassionate and impervious.Then,why is he incarnating in so many forms?How is he managing creation,maintenance and destruction?I am eager to learn about stories of Lord Sreemannaaraayana.Have mercy on me and teach me thaththva jnaana bodha.

Maithreya Mharshi was happy.He said.Hey great man!actually you are Yamadharma raju.Sage Maandavya gave curse and as aresult,you were born to low caste woman through Vedavyaasa.Sree mannaarayana likes you a lot.That is the sole reason why he called me and told me to enlighten you on many issues.He imparted that entire knowledge to me personally.So,I will teach you everything he taught me.All those who hear what I am saying are sure to benefit and prosper in all fields.

Sage Maithreya visits Krishna

After few months, all yaadavaas  went to Prabhaasa theerdham to perform a great uthsav.There,they gave donations on large scale.They prepared many tasty dishes and ate.They enjoyed by drinking alcohol.They were not in proper senses and laughed at one another,fought with others and killed one another.Sree KRISHNA was observing all this dispassionately.He performed last rites to all of them.Balaram also left his body and reached heaven.Uddhava went in search of Krishna and found him under Aswaddha vruksham.He was lying with his four arms and halo around his head.He kept his right foot on his left thigh and was thinking with closed eyes.
At the same time,Sage Maithreya came there.He is classmate of Vedavyaas.Great disciple and follower of Krishna.He saw Krishna and closed his eyes with reverence.
While Maithreya was hearing,Krishna addressed Uddhava and told him.Uddhava!you were Vasuvu (deities purohith)in your earlier life.While all your people were performing Sathrayagam,you had no wishes to make except permission to serve at my feet.So,I decided to stay in your heart.This is your last birth.I am going to impart the celestial knowledge which I gave to Brahma in Padmakalpam.Then you will be free of these materialistic attachments and understand me and attain Moksha.
I was happy hearing those words.Krishna gave me that knowledge.I saluted Him.I am returning to Badarikaasramam now.Now,Maithreya Maharshi is thinking of leaving his body.Sree Krishna has directed him to teach Thaththvajnaanam to you.If you go fast and reach him,He is sure to impart you with philosophical Thaththva jnaananam.SOo,Uddhava told this to Vidura.
