CH 24
VS 56 |
TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - This verse is available in both Shrimad Bhagwatji and Shrimad Bhagavad Geetaji and is GOD’s word and assurance of GOD.
Whenever there is a loss of righteousness in the world and sin increases then almighty GOD takes an incarnation and makes this world sinless and re-establishes the religion. This assurance of GOD gives so much strength to creatures else no option remains to control the loss of righteousness and increase in sins. If there was no assurance of GOD then this world will seem to be doomed in dark and all arrangements of the world will collapse.
It is only said on the strength of GOD’s assurance that religion can never be defeated because it is protected by GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- All arrangements of the world will collapse if there would be no assurance of GOD to uphold it.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD removes the burden of the earth but He can do this work by sitting in His own dwelling and with a mere resolution only. For this there is no need for GOD to incarnate on earth.
Saint says that GOD takes incarnation to grace His devotees. GOD has to come to let His devotees taste the juice of devotion. When GOD comes, He performs various Holy pastimes which increase the glory of GOD. One reason behind performing these Holy pastimes is that by listening and singing to these pastimes sorrows, grieves and ignorance of creatures are destroyed.
Therefore, we should always sing and listen to the Holy pastimes of GOD, so that our human life can become successful.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Our sorrow, grief and ignorance are destroyed when we listen to the Holy pastimes of GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
Singing the glory of GOD is the best means to make people pure. The Scriptures say that the foremost means to purify a creature is the means of praising GOD. For the ears of saints, praise of GOD is equivalent to nectar. Saints consider the result of praising GOD to be much higher than drinking nectar. If once anyone praises GOD by true devotion then all his longings of actions get nullified.
Therefore, saints always sing the serene glory of GOD by devotion and due to which they are successful in achieving GOD’s contiguity.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Singing the glory of GOD leads us to the contiguity of GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
GOD’s look is so divine and it is the height of beauty that for visualization of GOD all men and women drink the melody of the look of GOD continuously by making cups of their eyes. When GOD was there on earth while doing His Holy pastimes, at that time men and women drank the juice of His look and beauty. When GOD returned to His dwelling then even today also devotees are quenchless by visualizing the melodious form of GOD in their hearts. Devotees even do not like the falling of their eyelids as they disturb the visualization of GOD and they are annoyed by the falling of eyelids.
It is not possible to describe the melodious form of GOD in words. After visualizing GOD’s look it seems as if a flood of joy has come.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- The beauty of GOD is remarkable and devotees visualize it with ecstasy.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
King Shri Parikshitji wanted to listen to the supremely pure divine character of GOD Shree Krishnaji in detail. Great people sing the divine character of GOD by love and still remain unsatisfied. The divine character of GOD is the ultimate medicine for the destruction of worldly disease. GOD’s divine character provides ecstasy to saints and along with this it also provides pleasure to the ears and heart of worldly people. One who does not love GOD’s divine character and remains estranged hurts himself.
Therefore, a creature must listen and sing the divine character of GOD regularly in his life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We must listen and sing the divine character of Almighty GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - This is one of my favorite verse because it displays the gratitude of King Shri Parikshitji towards GOD.
King Shri Parikshitji says that in the war of Mahabharata there were Bhishma Pitamah and many great warriors and in the favor of Kauravas and even the army of Kauravas was much bigger than that of Pandavas. But Pandavas took the shelter of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD Shree Krishnaji and crossed the ocean of that war spontaneously. How easily Pandavas crossed the ocean of war, for these the simile given by King Shri Parikshitji is unique. King Shri Parikshitji says that as we cross the small pit created by the legs of the calf of a cow spontaneously because it is very small, similarly, Pandavas crossed the ocean of war spontaneously because of the grace of GOD.
We should always keep the feeling of gratitude towards GOD in our life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We must always be grateful to GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - King Shri Parikshitji said the above words to GOD Shri Shukdevji.
King Shri Parikshitji was listening to the narration of GOD with full attention because he was aware that the balance period of his life was only seven days. Not only grain, he had even abandoned water too. The sweet narration of GOD was providing him with so much ecstasy that he had no worry of hunger or thirst. He was so involved in listening to the pastime narration of GOD that he was even not aware of other subjects.
As deeply as we listen to the narration of GOD, we get a similar result. Only listening to narration is one thing but listening to the narration with immersion is a different thing. If we want our salvation then we should listen to the narration of GOD with full immersion.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We should listen to the narration of GOD with full immersion.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.
Questions asked for listening to the narration in respect of GOD purifies all three i.e, speaker, questioner and the listener. Just as the water of Bhagwati Ganga Mata or feet nectar of GOD Shree Shaligramji makes everyone pure, similarly, GOD’s narration purifies everyone. Therefore, the curiosity of listening to the narration of GOD should always remain in our heart. In this era narration of GOD is an infallible means to purify a creature.
Therefore, a creature should always keep the curiosity of listening to the narration of GOD in his heart and should daily listen to the narration of GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We should make it a habit of listening to the narration of GOD daily in life as it purifies us.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD is an adorable Deity of Deities also. Whenever Deities do face any adversity then they also take the shelter of GOD.
GOD fulfills all the wishes of His devotees. GOD destroys all afflictions of His devotees. There is no one else apart from GOD who can fulfill the wishes of a creature. There is no one else apart from GOD who can destroy all afflictions of a creature. Both these things are only possible because of GOD’s grace. A creature has some wishes and some afflictions in life and for both of these GOD’s grace is a must because GOD is the only owner of this universe.
Therefore, a creature must try to please GOD with devotion so that GOD’s grace can remain in his life continuously.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- We must make an effort to please GOD so that the grace of GOD remains in our life.

Then GOD called Yogmaya and instructed Her to establish the unborn in Bhagwati Rohini Mata’s fetus. Along with this GOD also told that I will take birth from Bhagwati Devki Mata and instructed Yogmaya to take birth from Bhagwati Yashoda Mata.

Those who will worship GODDESS, She will fulfill all their wishes. People on earth will worship GODDESS in various forms and several places of worship will be developed for GODDESS on the earth.
Because of this reason, GODDESS is worshiped on this earth in several forms and Mother fulfills everyone’s wish by considering them as children.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD provides dauntlessness to His devotees. Creatures of the world are prone to fear. But those take the shelter of GOD, GOD provides them dauntlessness. In the Scriptures, there are countless parables where GOD has provided dauntlessness to His devotees. These are the divine words of GOD that those who come in the shelter of GOD, GOD make him dauntless.
GOD is present everywhere in all forms. GOD resides in every particle. There is no such place where GOD is not there. When a devotee calls GOD, He does not have to come from anywhere because in one form He is situated there itself. Whenever devotees have called Him in distress, GOD immediately appeared there and resolved their grievance.
So a creature must dauntlessly remain in the shelter of GOD and must feel the nearness of GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Those who come in the shelter of GOD become dauntless.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD extricate the wicked people and provide them salvation. One reason behind this is that GOD has nothing else to offer except salvation. Therefore He cannot give anything except salvation.
Another reason behind the extrication of wicked people is because of fear or resistance they continuously think about GOD. While standing or sitting, eating or drinking, sleeping or awakened and while walking, Kans continuously thought about GOD because he was afraid of GOD. Wherever his vision went because of fear he visualized only GOD. In this manner, this entire world appeared Godly to him.
Therefore at several places, we will get this description that GOD killed wicked and demons and their flame came out and subsided in the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD and they achieved salvation.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- GOD provides salvation to all who are able to visualize GOD by any means.

By GOD’s grace, this world is protected in holocaust position. Origin of world, management of world and holocaust of the world all these tasks are performed by GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Devotees of GOD are true benefactors of this world. GOD’s devotees themselves cross this terrible and miserable worldly ocean by the grace of GOD. Along with this by rendering devotion and by taking the shelter of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD, they tell the world the way of crossing the worldly ocean for their welfare.
There is the great and special grace of GOD on the saintly persons. They are showered with so much grace of GOD that even we cannot imagine. Because saints themselves achieve salvation and by rendering devotion they show the path of salvation to others, therefore, they become eligible for the special grace of GOD.
Those who lead others toward GOD, such saintly persons achieve the special grace of GOD.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
- Saints show the path of devotion to the world and therefore receive the special grace of GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - When the time of GOD Shree Krishnaji’s incarnation came the entire universe started celebrating.
The constellation of the sky, the planets, the stars all became calm and serene. All four directions became sacred and serene. Mother Earth became blissful with Her son Mangal to welcome Her husband and was loaded with diamond mines. GOD meets the serene heart so all rivers became serene. GOD will play in the water on the bank of Bhagwati Yamuna Mata (Holy River), therefore rivers became pleased by this thought. The Fire was also pleased because it was aware that while performing Holy pastime GOD will hold Fire twice in His Divine Mouth. Kans has stopped the Yagnas (religious sacrifice) so after GOD’s arrival Deities will get an offering from the Fire so Shri Agnidev (Deity of Fire) was pleased in hope of getting food. Shri Vayudev (Deity of Air) was also pleased by thinking that when sweat will appear on the face of GOD, I will dry it up by blowing in a cool fragrant pace. Lotus were delighted and blossomed in the night also, trees of forests were loaded with flowers. Birds and bumblebees started humming.
When GOD arrives by taking incarnation the nature becomes eager for the welcome.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - When GOD incarnated at that time all the doors of jail were closed and they were studded with iron chains and big locks.
But as soon as Shri Vasudevji lifted GOD in his lap, guards of jail became unconscious and doors opened automatically. Iron chains and locks opened in such a manner that as on sunrise darkness disappears. With the remembrance of GOD, deed bondages of several lives are destroyed, when He comes in lap, He destroys the bondage of all types. When Shri Vasudevji moved ahead by taking GOD then clouds started showering water with thunder and at that time GOD Shri Sheshji stopped the water by His heads and started walking behind GOD. Although GOD Shri Sheshji had become elder brother as GOD Shree Balramji in the incarnation, He considered serving GOD as His main duty as always. He thought that it is not right that GOD faces difficulty when He is there.
A creature also must make the service of GOD as the main objective of his life.
GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS

GOD lowered His Divine Lotus Feet and Bhagwati Yamuna Mata became calm right after the blissful touch of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD and She gave the way from Her center to Shri Vasudevji.
