॥ अथ वर्वांशोअध्यायः ॥

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 1:

Sri Paraasharar – Krishna comes back to the Raajamaarga, the path which leads to the palace, and sees a young woman, who is coming there, who has a crooked body, and humpback, Kubjaa, and she is carrying all kinds of fragrant paste to be smeared on the body.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 2:

Krishna said – O beautiful woman, with eyes like indeevara, for whom are you taking all these pastes? Tell me the truth.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 3:

That Kubjaa, when Krishna addressed her like that, she, full of love towards Him, told Him with great love, because of the sight that she had, seeing Krishna directly there.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 4:

O dear, who don't you know me as Naikavaktraa, which is my name, and I am being deployed by Kamsa and I prepare this paste for him everyday and take it to him.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

All these fragrant pastes that I am grinding and bringing, are for Kamsa, to be applied on his body.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 5:

He does not like the fragrant pastes which are smeared on the body, to be ground by anyone else. When I go and deliver this to him, and serve him, he will be very pleased and will grant me all kinds of rewards.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 6:

Sri Krishna said – O beautiful woman, all these fragrant pastes which are applied on the body, please do give which are suitable to us.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 7:

Sri Paraasharar – Having heard this, immediately, she gave all the pastes to Krishna, saying "Please do take, please do take", with great respect. And she also applied it on Their bodies, as suitable to them.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 8:

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

She had a style of smearing, where the paste is smeared in such a way that all the Vaishnava chihnaas are marked on the body, like on the forehead, on the arms – this is called Patra rachanaa vidhi, or Bhakticcheda. She decorated Them with all these things, which were most fragrant, with the wonderful paste which she was carrying for Kamsa. With this, Balaraama and Krishna were radiant like two clouds – white and black clouds, which were decorated by the Indradhanush, the multi coloured bow of Indra.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 9:

Then, Krishna, who was an expert in treating such people, with such deformities, about how to straighten them. He placed two fingers under her chin, and pulled her up. He shook her.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 10:

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Pressing her feet with His foot, and two fingers under her chin, He pulled her up, such that all her deformity vanished and she became straight. All her deformity immediately went away. Having lost all her deformity, she became a beautiful woman.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 11:

Immediately, she was filled with great love for Krishna, and told with very sweet voice, and with great love, held Krishna's clothes and said "Please do come to my house", she pleaded.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 12:

When she told like this, Krishna gave a meaningful glance to Balaraama, indicating that this girl has fallen for Me, and He told that Naikavaktraa thus.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 13:

Smiling, He told her that he will come to her house. After she went, He laughed loudly, telling that she was attracted by Me.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 14:

Having got decorated with this fragrant paste, with all the wonderful marks on their body, wearing Neelaambara and Peetaambara, Balaraama and Krishna went towards the Dhanus Shaalaa, where the yaaga was organized. They were radiant with the wonderful garlands.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 15:

In order to do the yaaga, a wonderful bow was kept there, and He asked all the security people who were protecting it, about which is that bow. Then, He just took that bow, without any effort, and tried to bend it, by the rope.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 16:

Immediately, that bow was broken, and made a loud big sound, when He forcefully bent it to tie the knot. This loud noise was heard all over Mathura.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 17:

Immediately, They were attacked by the security people, and their army who were protecting that dhanus. They killed all of them, and left that dhanus shaalaa, and came out.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 18:

Kamsa came to know that Akroora has reached Mathura, and also heard that loud sound of that bow breaking, and immediately called Chaanoora and Mushtika, and told them thus.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Having heard that Akroora has come, and also having heard the noise of the huge bow breaking, Kamsa immediately calls Chaanoora and Mushtika, and gives them orders.

We next see what Kamsa told Chaanoora and Mushtika.

We are studying Chapter 20 of Amsha 5, where Balaraama and Krishna have come to Mathura, and Krishna has graced Kubjaa, and also the one who gave garlands. After that, He goes to the Dhanus shaala, and breaks the bow, which makes a huge loud noise, which Kamsa has heard, and he has also heard that Akroora has come along with Krishna and Balaraama. Immediately, Kamsa is giving directions to Chaanoora and Mushtika.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 19:

Kamsa – The two gopaala baalaas, cowherd boys have come. You have to kill both of them in front of me. Because they are the ones who are trying to kill me.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 20:

In the duel, both of you have to kill Krishna and Balaraama both. Once you kill Them, I will give you whatever you desire. Both of them are very powerful.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

If you do not kill, I am not going to give you.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 21:

Whether in the proper way, or in the way of cheating them, the wrong way, I want you to kill both of Them, because they are trying to do everything bad to me. I want you to kill both of them, and then I will share my kingdom equally with both of you.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 22:

Having ordered thus to both Chaanoora and Mushtika, Kamsa calls the mahout who is taking care of the elephant Kuvalayaapeeda, and tells him loudly that he has to bring the elephant Kuvalayaapeeda and make it stand at the very entrance of the ground where the wrestling competitions are going to happen.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 23:

I want you to keep the Kuvalayaapeeda elephant ready, and I want both of them to be killed by that elephant, when they come for participating in the wrestling competition here.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 24:

Having ordered that mahout also, and making sure that the platforms are all ready for everyone to come and be seated and witness all the events, Kamsa, whose death was near, awaited sunrise.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Upaakrutaan, means having kept ready.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 25:

The platforms were separately kept, and all the people of the city, all came and occupied their respective places. And, in the Raaja mancha, the kings had a separate platform, where they all came and were seated there, along with all their assistants.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 26:

The judges for the events, and were located in the centre of the ground where all the competitions happen. Kamsa had a high platform for himself, and he sat there.

The platforms for the ladies of the palace, were separately created. All the courtesans and women folk of the city, were all seated in separate platforms.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 28:

Nandagopa and the other gopaas, were all seated in separate platforms. Also, Akroora and Vasudeva were seated at the end of the platform.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Vasudeva and Akroora were sitting at the end of the platform because they wanted to discuss something in secret, so that others will not know.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 29:

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Devaki also came and she mixed herself with all the women folk of the city, and out of love for her child, she sat there. The reason is, even at the end of my life, I want to see the face of my son. She was eagerly waiting to see Krishna and Balaraama.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 30:

All the instruments were being played loudly. Chaanoora and Mushtika were all ready, clapping their arms, ready for the wrestling competition. All the people were making loud noise.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 31:

Both Balaraama and Krishna were mildly smiling. They came in the form of gopaalakaas, both of Them came to the entrance of the hall where these events were going to happen.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 32:

Then, Kuvalayaapeeda, which was sent towards Krishna and Balaraama, by the mahout, who was taking care of that elephant, came running fast towards Balaraama and Krishna, in order to kill Them.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 33:

Immediately, at the centre of the platform, there was a loud noise. Baladeva saw Krishna, and told Him thus.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 34:

Our enemies are sending this elephant, to kill us, and this elephant has to be killed.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 35:

As soon as he said this, Krishna, being told like this by His elder brother, makes a loud noise, roars like a lion, and is ready to kill the elephant.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 36:

He took its trunk in His hand, Krishna, who is Keshinishoodana, who has killed the demon Keshi, started to rotate it around, that elephant which had the power equal to that of Airaavata. He just rotated it all around, holding its trunk.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 37:

Though He is the ruler of the entire world, and all the worlds, following the sport of a child, He started to play like a small boy, moving around between its tusks and legs. He started to play a little bit, as He is the Lord of the three worlds.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 38:

He took away the left tusk, with His right hand, and started killing the mahout, who controls the elephant, with that. The mahout's head broke into hundred pieces.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 39:

Baladeva removed the right tusk of the elephant, and He started hitting and killing all the other people around the elephant, who were all trying to protect it.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 40:

Immediately, Balaraama, jumped onto the elephant, and started to kick the head of the elephant, with His left foot, with great anger.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 41:

Immediately, that elephant was killed and fell down. Balaraama killed it without any effort. Just as Indra, who had hit all the mountains which had the wings, with his Vajraayudha, and had cut off all their wings, and they all fell down. Just like a huge mountain falling down, the Kuvalayaapeeda fell down, being killed.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 42:

Having killed that Kuvalayaapeeda, which was sent by the mahout, Their body was all smeared with the mada jala which comes from the elephant, and its tusks were kept as weapons, by both of Them.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 43:

In the middle, both of these, Balaraama and Krishna, were standing with great pride and garva, as though a lion was standing in the middle of deer. Then, They entered the main hall, where the events were going to happen.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 44:

Immediately, there was a huge noise from the people who had assembled there, in the centre court. They all started to tell "This is Krishna, this is Balaraama". And they were all stunned by the look of Krishna and Balaraama.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 45:

This is the one Krishna, by whom, that fierce demoness Pootanaa was killed, Pootanaa, who was killing all the children. And also, Shakataasura was broken into pieces. And the Yamalaarjuna trees were also broken. They were telling – This is the same Krishna, take a look.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 46:

This is the same Krishna, who controlled that Kaaliya, and then sent him off, this boy Krishna. He subdued that Kaaliya, mounted on that. He is the one who held the huge mountain Govardhana, for seven nights. They started praising Him for all His wonderful acts.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 47:

Arishta, Dhenuka, Keshi, and these demons were killed without any effort by this great person Krishna. They were all wicked demons. Do take a look at this Krishna, behold the wonderful sight, they were telling.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 48:

This is Balabhadra, who is very powerful, and is the younger brother of Krishna. The way He is walking so majestically, He is like a sight for all the womenfolk.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 49:

All the persons who are experts in understanding the meanings of the Puraanaas, and the wise ones, they say that this Krishna, who was born as a gopaala, in order to uplift and revive the Yadu vamsha, which was almost extinct.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 50:

He is the same Vishnu. In whom everyone is born. He is the one who is creator of the whole world. He has incarnated on earth. He is saakshaat amsha of Vishnu. He has come in order to reduce the weight of evil on this earth.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 51:

When all the people of the city were wonderfully praising Krishna and Balaraama, their wonderful acts, their wonderful looks, etc., immediately, Devaki was troubled in her heart. And milk started to ooze from her breasts. Out of great love towards her children, Krishna and Balaraama.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 52:

Vasudeva, having seen the wonderful radiant faces of Krishna and Balaraama, his children, it was as though it was a great festival for him, looking at Their faces. Though he was old, he became a youth in no time. He forgot totally the old age which was coming. He again became as though he was a young person.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 53:

All the women folk of the city, all their eyes were wide open, and also the women folk of the harems. All of them could not close their eyes. They were just beholding the wonderful sights of Krishna and Balaraama.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 54:

The womenfolk were all telling each other – Look at Krishna's face, and eyes which is so beautifully reddish. Because of the strain of having fought with Kuvalayaapeeda, His face is all filled with wonderful drops of perspiration, we can see that radiant face.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 55:

His beautiful face, covered by perspiration, is putting to shame the full blown lotus of the autumn, with glittering dew drops on it. Let your eyes feast with this wonderful sight, and this is proper; you would have done what is worth doing in your life.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 56:

Look at His wonderful huge chest, which is the resting place of Mahaalakshmi, where there is the mark of Shreevatsa. Look at this boy Krishna. Look at His two arms, which even destroy the enemies.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 57:

Why don't you see this Balaraama, who is radiant, like milk or moon, or the flower, or the stalk of a lotus. Look at Balabhadra, who is wearing this wonderful blue cloth.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 58:

Mushtika, who is clapping his arms, being arrogant, is inviting them for the duel. And also Chaanoora. Look at Balabhadra and Krishna who are playing with him. Look at their playful looks.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 59:

Another woman is telling her friend – O friend, look at Chaanoora, who is ready to fight with Krishna. Is there no elder person here who is trying to stop this, this looks very unjust.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 60:

Where is this Krishna, who is just turned into His youth, and is so soft to look at, and wonderful. Where is this great demon, Chaanoora, whose body is like a Vajraayudha, so huge.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 61:

These two brothers Krishna and Balaraama, Tier body, hands, legs are all so soft, and beautiful, and they have just entered into their youth. Whereas Chaanoora and Mushtika are very fierce.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 62:

The judges of this event have no justice, they are doing the wrong thing. They have allowed the most powerful wrestlers Chaanoora and Mushtika, to fight with these two young boys, who look so soft. All the middle men are just seeing as though unconcerned, simply watching.

The womenfolk were all very concerned looking at Krishna and Balaraama, being attracted by their beauty.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 63:

Sri Paraasharar – Like this, when all the womenfolk of the city were talking, Sri Krishna started moving. Having tightened all His clothes and body, He was ready, slapping His arms, ready for the duel.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 64:

Even Balabhadra made loud slapping noise, with His arms, and He stamped His feet in such a way, where it looked as though the earth is going to break into pieces.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 65:

Krishna started to wrestle along with Chaanoora. Balaraama who was an expert in wrestling, took on Mushtika.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 66:

This shloka has all the acts of wrestling, where the two pull each other, hit them, pull their legs, make them to fall, turn around, etc.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

First, they hit their arms against each other. One person is trying to hold the other person, and is trying to escape from the grip of the other person. Pulling them, making them to fall down. The various locks with the thighs, and hands are told, which are used during wrestling. Hitting with the fist, and all of these are told – the various acts which happen during wrestling.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 67:

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

With the stamping of the feet, there was a huge fight.

Holding them fully and making them to fall down, and then sitting on them and trying to push them. These are the various things which happened. Entwining, pushing, pulling, beating each other with fists and arms and elbows, interlocking arms and feet, which happen during wrestling.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 68:

This fight was without any weapons, but was a very fierce duel. A fierce duel was happening between Chaanoora and Krishna, and Mushtika and Balaraama. It could make one to die, and make them lose all their powers. In that festival, when everyone was witnessing this fight.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

They will feel weak by physical strength, and also in the mind.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 69:

As long as Chaanoora fought with Krishna more and more, his breath became weaker and weaker.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 70:

Krishna fought with him without any effort, and He started to push His beautiful tuft on His head, to the side, as He was fighting.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 71:

Kamsa was seeing that Krishna was becoming powerful and Chaanoora's power was reducing, and he was on the path to losing. At that time, Kamsa stopped all the noise of all the instruments, and they all became silent. Kamsa was very angry.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 72:

When all these Mrudanga and other instruments were stopped by Kamsa, immediately in the sky was heard the huge noise of all these instruments, made by the devataas, as they were extremely happy that Krishna was overpowering Chaanoora.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 73:

The devaas were extremely pleased, and they started to tell Krishna, without anyone seeing them – "O Govinda, win over this Chaanoora, kill that Chaanoora. Victory to You".

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 74:

After having played with Chaanoora for a long time, Krishna lifted him and started to rotate him all around, in order to kill him.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 75:

He rotated him so fiercely all around, a hundred times, and banged him on the ground, and Chaanoora's breath had left him when he was in the air itself.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 76:

When Chaanoora was banged on the ground, by Krishna, he broke into a hundred pieces, and there was blood splashed all around on the ground.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 77:

At the same time, Baladeva was fighting a fierce duel with Mushtika, as Krishna was fighting with Chaanoora.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 78:

With His firm fist, Baladeva hit him on his head, and kicked him on his chest with His knee, made him to fall on the ground, and just pounded him, who was already dead.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 79:

There was another wrestler called Tosalaka, who came next. Krishna, with His left fist itself, killed him in just one hit.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 80:

When Chaanoora was killed by Krishna, and Mushtika killed by Balaraama, and Tosalaka killed by Krishna, all the other wrestlers ran away out of fear.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 81:

Krishna and Balaraama were enjoying and celebrating, slapping their arms, and called all their friends of the same age, being very happy.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 82:

Kamsa, being very angry, and his eyes red with blood, told loudly to all the people around, to take them away by force from this assembly.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 83:

"Even Nandagopa has to be caught and chained, with iron chains. Even Vasudeva has to be killed, by giving him punishment not fit for old people, make him suffer." Kamsa ordered.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 84:

"All the gopaas who are enjoying with Krishna, catch all of them, and take away all their cows, and their money and other things they have." – he ordered.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 85:

When Kamsa was ordering all his assistants like this, Krishna had a mild smile in His face, and immediately jumped up to the platform where Kamsa was, and held him there.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 86:

He held him by his hair, and his crown was falling down on the ground. He pushed him down, and fell on Kamsa.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 87:

When Krishna, who is the support of the entire world, the three worlds, because of the weight of Krishna, when He fell on Kamsa, immediately Kamsa died, unable to tolerate the weight of Krishna. Kamsa, the son of Ugrasena died.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 88:

Krishna held the hair of Kamsa, who was already dead, and dragged him along to the centre of the court.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 89:

As He dragged with his hair, because of the weight of Kamsa's body, there was a huge furrow created on the ground. As though a powerful flow of flood causes a furrow on the ground.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 90:

When Kamsa was killed like this, Kamsa's brother by name Sunaama, came there. Balabhadra without any effort, killed him.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 91:

That court, where all the people were seated, the people made a huge noise, and saw with how much of disrespect, the way by which Krishna had killed Kamsa. They were all taken by surprise.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 92:

Krishna, being helped by Baladeva, immediately held the feet of Vasudeva, and Devaki, who were His parents.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 93:

Immediately, Vasudeva and Devaki brought Him up, and they remembered their earlier births. They were only bowing down to Krishna, that Krishna was none other than the Supreme Lord, and they spoke thus –

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 94:

Vasudeva starts eulogizing Krishna – O Lord Krishna, do be pleased. You had given the devaas a boon, to the devaas who were all suffering. That boon was fulfilled by being born as our child.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 95:

We worship You, You who are none other than Bhagavaan, You have incarnated here in my house, in order to kill all the evil forces on the earth. Because of that, our whole Yadu clan was purified.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 96:

You are the one who does srushti, sthiti, samhaara. You are present in all these dehaas as antaryaami. Everything is being run by You only, whatever happened earlier, whatever is going to happen in future, everything is controlled and regulated by You only.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 97:

O Lord. Your svaroopa and guna cannot be thought fully by anyone in their mind also. You are being worshipped by all the yajnyaas. You are only the yajnya, and for people who perform the yajnyaas and do the yajnyaas, You are the Supreme Lord.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 98:

You are the one who creates the whole world. O Janaardana.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 99:

Because of the putra sneha, the love that You are my son, the love that I am getting towards You, and also for Devaki, that You are her beloved son, that is very laughable, because You are the Supreme Lord, and who are we?

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 100:

You are the creator of all beings. You are without a beginning and without an end. Which tongue of a human being can call You as son?

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Having remembered all his previous births, and having known that Krishna is the Supreme Lord, Vasudeva is eulogizing Krishna.

We are studying Chapter 20 of Amsha 5, where Kamsa has been killed by Krishna, and He prostrates to both Vasudeva and Devaki, His parents, and Vasudeva remembers his poorva janma, and knows that Krishna is none other than the Supreme Brahman, and is eulogizing Him, as "How can anyone say that You are a human? You are the creator of everything".

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 101:

This entire world, from whom it has been created, is born from whom. But for the veil of maayaa, through what logic can we say that the creator of this whole world is being born to us?

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Maayaa is Bhagavaan's shakti which covers our real knowledge.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 102:

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

This world, consisting of sthaavara and jangama, the immovables and movables, is established in whom, how can He be born as a human, who lies in the womb during pregnancy, and after that, in the lap of the mother during childhood?

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 103:

O Supreme Lord, please do be pleased with us. Protect this whole world, with Your amsha avataara, You have incarnated as Krishna. You are not my son. This whole world, starting with a tree, up to Chaturmukha Brahma, whatever is there in this world, is all created from You only. Why do You delude us, O Purushottama?

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 104:

With our knowledge being covered by maayaa, prakruti, we thought that You are our son. And, because of the terrible fear of Kamsa, the enemy, You were taken to Gokula. You grew up there only. I don't think that You are mine. You are the creator, protector of this whole world.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 20, Shloka 105:

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Whose wonderful acts, even Rudra, the Marut gana, or Ashvini devataas, or Indra, or anyone, cannot perceive the real nature. O Vishnu, You are the lord of this world. In order to protect and do good to this whole world, You have incarnated here. I have now realized that this is the truth. My moha is no more there.

The highest of the gods, Rudra, Indra and others cannot see. That Supreme Lord, You have incarnated as my son, now I know that. The word 'hi' is in the sense of kaarana, cause. Because of that, my moha is gone.

This completes Chapter Twenty.
