BRAHMA VAIVAARTHA PURANAM KRISHNA KAVACHAM KR IRS 28424 PART 5
Shri Krishna ‘Stuti’ and ‘Kavacha’ & Shiva ‘Stuti’ and ‘Kavacha’ An ever-grateful Malavati broke into tears with suppressed emotions and commended Shri Krishna as follows: Vandey tam Paramaataanam Sarva Kaarana Kaaranam, Vinaa yena shavaah sarveyh praanino jagateetaley/ Nirliptam Saakshi rupam cha Sarveshaam sarva karmasu, Vidyaamaanam na drushtam cha Sarveh Sarvatra sarvadaa/ Yena Srashtaacha Prakritih Sarvaadhara Paraatparaa, Brahma Vishnu Shivaa deenaam Prasuryaa Trigunaatmikaa/ Jagatsrashtaaswayam Brahmaa niyato yasya sevayaa, Paataa Vishnushcha Jagataam Samhartaam Shankarah swayam/ Dhyaayantey yam Suraah Sarvey Munayo Manavastathaa, Sidhhaascha yoginah Santah Prakriyeh param/ Saakaaramcha Niraakaaram Param Swecchhaamayam Vibhum, Varam Varenyam Varadam Varaaham Vara kaaranam/ Tapah phalam Tapo-beejam tapasaamcha phalapradam, Swayam Tapah Swarupam cha Sarva rupamcha sarvatah/ Sarvaadhaaram Sarva beejam karma tatkarmanaa phalam, Teshaamcha Phaladaataaram tadbeeja kshaya kaaranam/ Swayam tejah swarupam cha Bhakta –anugraha vigraham, Sevaadhyaanam na ghatatey Bhaktaanaam Vigraham binaa/ Tat tejo mandalaakaaram Suryakoti samaprabham, Ateeva Karmayeeyam cha Rupam tatra manoharam/ Naveena neerada Shyaamam Sharatpankaja lochanam, Sharad paavarna Chandraasyameeshad bhaaswadaasya samanvitam/ Koti kandarpa laavanyam leelaadhaama manoharam, chandanokshita saavargam Ratna bhushitabhushitam/ Dwibhujam Muraleehastam Peetakousheya vaasasam, Kishora vayasam Shaantam Raadhaakantamanantakam/ Gopaanganaa parivrutam kutrachinnirjaney vaney, Kutrachitraasamadhyastham Raadhayaa parisevitam/ Kutrachid Gopavesham cha veshtitam Gopabaalakaih, Shatashringaachalotkrushtey Ramye viridaavaney vaney/ Nikaram Kaamadhenuunaam rakshatam shishurupinam, Golokey Virajaateerey Paarijaata vaney Vaney/ Venum kvanaantam madhuram gopi-sammoha kaaranam, Niraamaey cha Vaikunthey kutrichiccha chaturbhujam/ Lakshmi kaantam paarshadaischa sevitam cha Chaturbhujaiih, Kutrachit Swaamsha rupena Jagataam paalanaayacha/ Swetadweepey Vishnu rupam padmayaa parisevitam, Kutrachit swaamsha kalayaa Brahmaandey Brahma rupinam/ Shiva swarupam Shivadam Saamshena shivarupinam, Swaatmanah Shodashaamshena Sarva -adhaaram Paraatparam/ Swayam Maha Viraadrupam Vishvogham yasya lomasu, Leelaayaa Swaamshakalayaa jagataam paalanaaya cha/ Naanaavataaram Vibhrantam beejam teshaam sanaatanam, Vaantam Krutrachit santam yoginaam hridaye sataam/ Praana rupam Praaninaam cha Paramaatmaana meeswaram, tam cha stutomashaktaamabalaa Nirgunam Vibhum/ Nirlakshyam cha nireehamcha saaram Vangmanasoparam, yam stotumakshayonantah Sahasravadanena cha/ Panchavaktraschaturvaktro Gajavaktrah Shadaananah, yam stotrum na kshamaa Maayaa Mohitaa yaya Maayaa/ Yam stotum na kshamaa Shrischa Jadibhutaa Saraswati, Vedaa na Shaktaa yam stotum ko vaa Vidwamscha Vedavit/ Kim stoumi tamaneeham cha shokaartaa stree Paraatparum/ ( I salute Paramaatma who is the Cause of Causes, without whom the whole World and its inhabitants are non-existent as he is the under- current and the Evidence of each and every activity of all Beings; he is the fulcrum of the Universe and the Creation of Tri-Gunaatmika Prakriti who in turn is the Creator of everything including Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva entrusted with their own activities of Srishti, Sthithi and Samharam; She is also the Creator of all Devatas, Manus, Siddhaas,Yogis and Saints who are eternally engaged in the devotion of that Paramatma who is far above the Prakriti; that Paramatma who has Visible and at the same time Invisible, who is ‘Aaakara’or possessive of Form, yet ‘Naraakaara’ or without Form; who is the boon, the boon-giver, the reason of giving a boon; the seed, the plant, the tree, the fruit and the enjoyer of the fruit, the taste of the fruit as also the destroyer of the fruit. He is a huge fund of Tejas (radiance) but to enable devotees take various Forms, Names, Typical Appearances, and Features. Specified Boons are expected from the Bhaktas like good progeny, knowledge, powers, wealth, good health, fame, or Salvation and indeed he is the instant Provider. He is an Epithet of Radiance with unimaginable shine of crores of Suryas; his Rupa is readily attractive like crores of Kandarpas with the complexion of blue sky with Sharad season’s lotus-like eyes; he has a physique smeared with Sandalwood paste all over and ornamented with jewellery and fresh flower garlands full of intoxicating fragrance; with high shoulders wearing scented and sift silks with a Murali in hands full of youthful vigour in the company of Radhaakanta and countless of Gopikas and Gopabalas; visualised sometimes in the Form of a Bala Gopala who did the miracle of lifting the Govardhana mountain with his little finger; some times in the most charming Brindavan forests pressing his tender fingers to produce the celestial music of flute leaning on a tree with crossed legs; some other times in yoga Nidra while Devi Lakshmi was pressing his tender feet on the Sesha Nag’s bed of coiled softness; yet other times in the Form of Vishnu with four arms adorned with shankha, chakra, gada and Padma while Devas and Sages were singing prayerful hymns and rhythmic utterances of Veda Mantras; while assuming the Swarupa of Parama Shiva at the Shiva dhamma; like a Brahma as the Creator of the ‘Chara achara Jagat’ and as the Veda Swarupa outlining virtues and their practices and recognising the sublimity of the Unique Paramatma; and as the Virat Swarupa with the Universe within him as the make-believe kaleidoscope with endless variations who is at once a reality but a fantasy full of Maya that is visible yet invisible; legible yet illegible; distinct yet amorphous! Devi Malavati finally said that it would never be possible to gauge what Paramatma was all about, even as Tri Murtis failed in defining him/her/it / and this or that or other! Pancha Mukha Maha Deva, Chatur Mukha Brahma, Gajanana Ganesha, Shadaanana Kartikeya, Maya herself lost her way in seeking to define Krishna Deva; Lakshmi and Saraswati made determined efforts but in vain; when such was the reality, a grief-stricken helpless woman like Malavati could only betray her pettiness to define that Maha Shakti called Paramatma!). In course of time, Devi Malavati gave birth to a boy and as the curse of Brahma was over, Upabarhana died; she left to Pushkara Tirtha and immolated herself in an Agni kunda but was reborn as the daughter of King Srinjay; as she was a great Pativrata she decided to marry Upabarhana again in his next birth. Meanwhile, there was a pious woman, named Kalavati the wife of a Goparaja Dwimali; Kalavati and Muni Kashyapa had a chance union and thus was born a boy of great radiance; he was named Narada as there was a severe drought at that time since ‘Naara’meant water and ‘da’ denoted a provider. Dwimali came to know of the Kalavati-Kashyapa Muni affair and left for Badarikashram and died in a Yogic way. Kalavati was in the protection of a kind Brahmana till Narada was born. As a ‘Jatismara’ with the knowledge of previous births, Narada became an intense devotee of Shri Krishna; Maharshi Sanat Kumara taught the Maha Mantra: Om Shri Namo Bhagavatey Raasa mandaleswaraya Shri Krishnaaya swaahaa/ The boy Narada eventually became a Maha Tapaswi and left the Gopa Sharira. After a few Kalpas, Brahma materialised Narada again from his throat along with Marichi and other Maharshis. Brahma mooted the idea of Narada’s wedding, but Narada refused as he was keen on Tapasya to Shri Krishna. Brahma advised that already Narada’s earlier wife Malavati was engaged in severe Tapsya with a determination of wedding Upabarhana. Moreover, Brahma said that he taught Vedas and Narada would have to furnish Guru Dakshina to him. In principle, Narada agreed to marry but requested Brahma to provide the Upadesam of Krishna Kavacham and Shiva Kavachas before the wedding.
