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.

Some more achievements of Krishna

Krishna,ie VASUDEVUDU,killed Kaalayavana,SAALVA,Jaraasandha and many wicked kings.He killed enemies of PANDAVAS.He was the main force behind killing of eighteen Akshouhinees of  armies in MAHAABHAARATHA WAR.Durinh that many cruel and wicked kings also perished.He made Yudhishtara,the king.When Aswathdhaama released Brahmaasthra to wipe out all Paandava dynasty,embryo in Uththaraas womb also got killed.But Krishna brought back life in to that embryo and he was later named as Pareekshith.He encouraged Yudhishtara to do many Aswamedha yaagaas.He lived happily married life with his many wives.He saw to it that all the right deeds were executed in the right manner at the right time.But he was never affected by those acts.He was always happy.He made all his people happy and content.
One day,some sages came to Dwaaraka.But arrogant and headstrong youth tried to humiliate them.They made fun of those sages and belittled them.They got angry and cursed them that their dynasty would also perish soon.Actually it was also Krishnaas plot to demolish his entire clan.

Krishnaas childhood

Krishna showed his magical powers to his childhood friends many a time.A multiheaded serpant named Kali was living in Kaliya madugu.He turned those Yamuna waters into poison and there by killed many cattle and cowboys.Krishna went into those waters and fought with that serpant king.He danced on his hood.He threatend him with dire consequences so that he left those waters and went away with his wives to distant place.Indra was very proud of his powers.Krishna wanted to teach him a lesson.He stopped his village people from praying Indra.Indra became angry and rained stones and stormed them.It rained continuously for a week.Then Krishna rescued the villagers and their cattle by lofting Govardhana hill on his little finger,like an umbrella.He is used to play with gopikaas and make them forget about worldly tensions in Brundavanam.Though he was the Almighty and the first Teacher,he went to Saandeepudu to learn studies just like any other commoner.When a demon named Panchajanudu killed his teachers son,he revived life in that boy.He married Rukmini,who loved him and wanted to marry against the wishes of her brother,Rukmi.He went to Vidarbha and took her away and married her.To make his wife,Sathyabhaama happy,he brought Paarijaatha pushpam from heaven.He killed Naraka and released sixteen thousand princesses who were imprisoned by him.When all of them requested him to marry him,he obliged their wish and married them at a time.He appeared before each one of them as Krishna and spent time with them and made them happy individually by forming into so many Krishnaas.
