The Narakaasura vruttaanta is going to be narrated.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 1:

Sri Paraasharar – When Krishna was in Dwaaravati, the king of all the gods, Indra, came mounting on his Airaavata, to see Krishna.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Bhouma is Bhoomi's son Narakaasura. In order to narrate the story of Narakaasura vadha, and also about another thousand wives which Krishna gets here, that story is being narrated in the beginning of this chapter.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 2:

He entered into Dwaarakaa, and met Krishna there. And narrated to him the story of Narakaasura, what all bad things he had been doing.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 3:

O Krishna, You are the Supreme Lord, and though You have incarnated as a human here, You destroyed all the evil and everyone's grief is put to an end. O Madhusoodana.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 4:

In order to torture the sages, Arishta, Dhenuka, Keshi, and other demons, You destroyed all of them.

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

Kamsa was killed by You, along with Kuvalayaapeeda, Chaanoora, Mushtika, and Pootanaa who used to kill the children. All of them were killed, destroyed by You. And also all the others who were causing trouble to the people of this world.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 6:

All the three worlds, when they are protected by Your powerful arms, Your presence, O Krishna, and all the yajnya amsha, and havis with which the people perform and offer in the yaagaas, all of that the gods obtain properly, when all the evil forces are destroyed. The gods are all very satisfied and happy.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Indra is eulogizing Krishna that He has done so many wonderful acts. He incarnated as a human and killed all the evil forces, and all gods are happy that they are getting the havis, and are all very satisfied. You did all these wonderful acts, destroying Arishta, Dhenuka, Keshi, Pootanaa, Kuvalayaapeeda, Kamsa.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 7:

Now, I have come to You, for a particular reason. Having heard that reason why I have come to You, You can decide how You are going to take care of that, O Krishna.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 8:

There is one Narakaasura, who is son of Bhoomi, Pruthvi, and he is king of Praagjyotishapura. And he is torturing all the people, O Krishna. I will tell You what all bad acts he has done, and You can decide what to do.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 9:

All the gods, devaas, siddhaas, suraas, and kings – he has stolen the daughters of all these people. And he has arrested them in his house.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 10:

Narakaasura is such a powerful demon that he has stolen Varuna's umbrella itself, which actually pours down water. The peak of Mandara itself, called Maniparvata, he has taken away that itself and kept in his palace.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 11:

My mother Aditi's karna kundala, the earrings which actually are pouring down amruta, those divya kundalaas, those he has stolen. He is after my Airaavata now.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 12:

O Krishna, Govinda, I have told You all the bad acts of Narakaasura, that he has done – stolen things from Varuna, stolen the peak of Meru parvata itself, and my mother Aditi's divya karna kundala, now wanting to steal my Airaavata. How to take care of him, and destroy him, please do think over and find a way.

Sri Paraasharar continues with Krishna going after Narakaasura, and next is the Narakaasura vadha prakarana which comes. We see this next.

We are studying Chapter 29 of Amsha 5. Where Indra has just arrived and met Sri Krishna, and tells Him about how Narakaasura is troubling everyone, and that he has stolen all valuable things from svarga, Indraloka. Narakaasura has stolen the kundala of Indra's mother Aditi, has stolen the chatra of Varuna himself, and the peak of Meru parvata itself. Now, Narakaasura is after the Airaavata elephant.

Indra requests Krishna to do something so that Narakaasura's tortures will all stop, all his troubles will stop.

Indra says that he has told all the bad things which Narakaasura is doing, and now requests Krishna to do whatever is right for this.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 13:

Sri Paraasharar – Having heard this, Krishna smiled, and holding Indra's hand, got up from his feet.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 14:

Immediately, Krishna thought of Garuda, and immediately, Garuda came there. Taking Satyabhaama also along, Krishna got onto Garuda, and started to go towards Praagjyotishapura, where Narakaasura was living.

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Satyabhaama was Amsha of Bhoomidevi. Bhoomi's son was Narakaasura, and Krishna had given a word that He would kill her son only with her permission, and since Satyabhaama was Bhoomidevi's amsha, He took Satyabhaama along, as He knew that He would destroy Narakaasura. In Harivamsha it is also told that Naarada brings a Paarijaata flower from Devaloka, and gives it to Rukmini. When Satyabhaama sees this, she is immediately jealous of Rukmini, that she got such a wonderful flower from heaven, and she did not get it. So, Krishna had told here that He would get her the entire tree itself. In order to fulfil this also, Krishna took Satyabhaama along with Him.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 15:

Indra got onto his Airaavata and got back to svarga. Krishna, when all the people of Dwaaravati were looking at Him, travelled to Praagjyotishapura, on Garuda.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 16:

A demon by name Mura had created a huge strong net around Praagjyotishapura, which was as sharp as a razor's edge, in order to protect the city. So, nobody could enter into that city. Praagjyotishapura was covered like this all around.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 17:

Krishna used His Sudarshana Chakra and tore away the net, which demon Mura had created. At that time, demon Mura got up and came to fight with Krishna, and Krishna killed him.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 18:

Mura's seven thousand children came, seeing their father being killed. They came to fight against Krishna. He created a series of fires from His Sudarshana Chakra, and burnt all of them as though they were just like fireflies.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 19:

Having killed demon Mura and two more demons Hayagreeva and Panchajana, He rushed towards Praagjyotishapura.

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

Then Narakaasura came with his huge army, and there was a big fight with Krishna, along with the huge army of Narakaasura. Krishna killed thousands of demons there.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 21:

Bhouma is Bhoomi's son, Narakaasura. Bhouma rained arrows, shastraas, astraas, incessantly, and Krishna threw the Sudarshana Chakra on Narakaasura and cut him into two pieces.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 22:

The moment Narakaasura was killed, Bhoomidevi came bringing with her the kundalaas, earrings of Aditi, and she addressed Krishna thus –

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 23:

Bhoomidevi – When I was saved by You, when You had incarnated as Varaaha Moorthi, at that time, with Your touch, I gave birth to this Narakaasura. He was born when You touched me, bringing me up.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 24:

Narakaasura, who is Your own son, You had given to me, and You only killed him now. Please take this kundala of Aditi, and protect his progeny.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 25:

O Lord. You are always graceful and You lovingly grace all those who take refuge in You. I had requested You to reduce the weight of evil forces on me, and because of that only, You have incarnated here. You are amsha of Bhagavaan Vishnu, and You are none other than the Supreme Lord.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 26:

Sri Engal Aalwaan’s Commentary:

Bhoomidevi eulogized Krishna. She says that "You are the intelligent or efficient cause, You are the one who nurtures this whole world. You are the material cause. The whole world is sustained because of You only. You are the one who does dissolution also. Everything comes and merges into You only. You are only present in the form of this whole world. What else can I praise You as? What can I pray You as? You are everything".

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 27:

You are the all pervader. You also pervade all the objects individually, and You only get everything done. You are the act also. You are the doer also. You are the creator also, You are everything. You are the inner self of all beings. How is it possible to even praise You?

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 28:

You are the Supreme Self, Paramaatman. You are the inner self of all beings. You are the inner self of everything and controller of everything. You are immutable, and any stuti is not sufficient to praise of eulogize You.

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

O Lord, who is the inner self of all beings. Be pleased, and do grace me. Whatever this Narakaasura has done, do pardon him. You have done all this only for establishing dharma. Because of this only, You killed Your own son.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 30:

Sri Paraasharar – Krishna said that "Let it be so". He went to Narakaasura's palace, and collected all the gems which he had stolen.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 31:

In the harem where Narakaasura had put all the girls, Krishna saw more than 16,100 girls whom Narakaasura had brought and kept there.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 32:

He saw excellent elephants, and each elephant having four tusks; He saw 6000 such elephants. He saw 21 lakh horses, brought from Kaambhoja desha, which were of excellent breed.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 33:

Using all the servants of Narakaasura, Krishna carried all the 16,100 girls, and all elephants, and horses and everything, and sent them to Dwaarakaapuri.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 34:

He saw the chatra of Varuna, and also Maniparvata, which is the peak of Meru.

He took both on Garuda.

Sri Vishnu Puraana – Amsha 5, Chapter 29, Shloka 35:

He also got onto Garuda, loading the parvata of Meru, and Varuna's chatra, and then, in order to return the kundala of Aditi, Indra's mother, He went to svarga.

This completes Chapter Twenty Nine.
