Before starting with the
Avtaar lilas (playacts) of Bhagwan Shri Krishna
lets understand the reason behind His Avtaar
(manifestation). Whenever the Ahdharam (Satanic/evil)
values come to prevail on the earth and Dharama
(righteous/good) values decline, the Purna Purshotam Bhagwan
embodies Himself forth as a human-being in order to uproot vice and to establish virtue so that the earth may get
rid of sinners. History stands witness to this fact. The Avtaar
(manifestation) of
Purna Purshotam Bhagwan Krishna, thousands of
years ago, can be cited as an example to prove this fact
Mother Earth was suffering from the tortures of demoniac powers and could not bear the weight of
Ahdharam (Satanic/evil) values that were at their heyday.
The pitch darkness of sin prevalent everywhere was devouring noble values mercilessly. When the Mother Earth could
not tolerate all this, she approached Shri Brahmaji, the
Creator of the world. Since Shri Brahmaji could do nothing
much He escorted her to Purnapurshotam Bhagwan to ask for
His help, Hearing the woeful tale of the Mother Earth who had taken a form of a cow,
Purnapurshotam consoled her saying. "Don't worry, Earth! I myself shall be
born and come in the form of Krishna in
Shrimadh Gokul, in order to rid you of the clutches of sinners." This was
not only the background of the incarnation of
Purnapurshotam Shri Krishna but many more. His main reason was to kill all the
ashura (demons) by performing
Bal-Lila.
This shows Bhagwan is so graceful that He cannot see his neared
and dearest one’s in pain and Himself comes ahead to protect them.
