Written by <\/span>Sulaiman<\/span> Razvi<\/span><\/p>\n

As you may know<\/span>,<\/span> Krishna was an avatar of Vishnu who took birth on earth in human form. So a human would have a limited life and would die someday. Krishna grew old and died too, But in an unnatural way. A hunter named <\/span>Jara<\/span> shot <\/span>an <\/span>arrow <\/span>at<\/span> Krishna’s leg. And the story later may have been twisted to show that it was Krishna himself who wanted <\/span>it. Krishna was actually cursed. Krishna killed the hunter <\/span>Jara<\/span> but gave him entrance to heaven. <\/span>As per <\/span>Skanda<\/span> Purana<\/span> II.ii.12.118 the hunter shot the arrow whi<\/span>ch pierced the heart of Krishna, but as per Vishnu <\/span>Purana<\/span> the arrow was shot at Krishna\u2019s leg, <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Vishnu <\/span>Purana<\/span> 5.37.<\/span>61-6<\/span>9<\/span> \u201c<\/span>Respecting the words of the Brahman, the imprecation of <\/span>Durv\u00e1sas<\/span>, the illustrious <\/span>Krishn\u0301a<\/span> sat engaged in thought, resting his foot upon his knee. Then came there a hunter, named <\/span>Jar\u00e1<\/span>, whose arrow was tipped with a blade made of the piece of iron of the club, which had not been reduced to powder; and beholding from a distance the foot of <\/span>Krishn\u0301a<\/span>, he mistook it for part of a deer, and shooting his arrow, lodged it in the sole. Approaching his mark, he saw the four-armed king, and, falling at his feet, repeatedly besought his forgiveness, exclaiming, “I have done this deed unwittingly, thinking I was aiming at a deer! Have pity upon me, who am consumed by my crime; for thou art able to consume me!” <\/span>Bhagavat<\/span> replied, “Fear not thou in the least. Go, hunter, through my favour, to heaven, the abode of the gods.” As soon as he had thus spoken, a celestial car appeared, and the hunter, ascending it, forthwith proceeded to heaven. Then the illustrious <\/span>Krishn\u0301a<\/span>, having united himself with his own pure, spiritual, inexhaustible, inconceivable, unborn, <\/span>undecaying<\/span>, imperishable, and universal spirit, which is one with <\/span>V\u00e1sudeva<\/span>, <\/span>abandoned his mortal body and the condition of the threefold qualities<\/span>.<\/span>\u201d Tr. H.H. Wilson<\/span><\/p>\n

The following verse from <\/span>Srimad<\/span> Bhagavatam<\/span> states that though Krishna was capable of reversing the curse but he chose to accept his destiny, <\/span><\/p>\n

Srimad<\/span> Bhagavatam<\/span> 11.1.23-25 “The fish was caught in the ocean along with other fish in a fishermen’s net. The iron lump in the fish’s stomach was taken by the hunter <\/span>Jar\u0101<\/span>, who fixed it as an arrowhead at the end of his shaft. Knowing fully the significance of all these events, <\/span>the Supreme Lord, though capable of reversing the <\/span>br\u0101hma\u1e47as<\/span>‘ curse<\/span>, did not wish to do so. Rather, in His form of time, He gladly sanctioned the events.” Tr. Swami <\/span>Prabhupada<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

What happened to his wives, family and <\/span>Balrama<\/span>?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

As per Devi <\/span>Bhagavatam<\/span>, <\/span>Balrama<\/span> died too, and his city <\/span>Dvaraka<\/span> drowned in <\/span>the <\/span>ocean,<\/span><\/p>\n

Srimad<\/span> Devi <\/span>Bhagavatam<\/span> 2.28.1-23 “\u2026The high-souled descendants of <\/span>Yadu<\/span>, intoxicated by drinking wine, fought against each other and were extirpated in the presence of <\/span>Kri<\/span>sn<\/span>a<\/span> and <\/span>Balar\u00e2m<\/span>. <\/span>Balar\u00e2m<\/span> then quitted his mortal coil; the lotus-eyed <\/span>Bhagav\u00e2n<\/span> Krisna<\/span> quitted his life, struck by the arrows of a hunter, to pay<\/span> respect to a <\/span>Br\u00e2hmin’s<\/span> curse<\/span>. Vasudeva heard of Hari’s quitting his mortal coil, and meditated the Goddess of the Universe within his heart and left his holy life. <\/span>Arjuna<\/span> became very sorry; he went to <\/span>Prabh\u00e2sa<\/span> and performed the funeral obsequies of all duly. Seeing the dead body of Hari, <\/span>Arjuna<\/span> collected fuel and burnt his body together with his eight principal wives; he burnt also <\/span>Balar\u00e2m’s<\/span> body with that of his wife <\/span>Revat\u00ee<\/span>. <\/span>Arjuna<\/span>, then, went to the <\/span>Dv\u00e2rak\u00e2<\/span> city and removed all the inhabitants of the city when the whole <\/span>Dw\u00e2rk\u00e2<\/span> city of <\/span>V\u00e2sudeva<\/span> was drowned in the waters of the ocean<\/span>. While <\/span>Arjuna<\/span> was taking all the persons with him after getting out of <\/span>Dw\u00e2rk\u00e2<\/span>, he felt himself very weak on the way; and <\/span>therefore a band of robbers, known by the name of <\/span>\u00c2bh\u00eeras<\/span> plundered all the wealth and all the wives of <\/span>Krisna<\/span>. <\/span>Arjuna<\/span>, of indomitable valour, after his arrival at <\/span>Indraprastha<\/span> made Vajra, <\/span>Aniruddha’s<\/span> son, the king of the place\u2026” Tr. Swami <\/span>Vijnananda<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Eight wives of Krishna immolated themselves into Krishna’s pyre and <\/span>the <\/span>other 16100 wives were abducted by bandits<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Vishnu <\/span>Purana<\/span> 5.38<\/span>.1-11<\/span> \u201c<\/span>The 8 queens of Krishna, who have been named, with Rukmini at their head, embraced the body of Hari, and entered the funeral fire. <\/span>Revati<\/span> also embracing the corpse of Rama<\/span>, entered the blazing pile, which was cool to her, happy in contact with her lord. Hearing these events, <\/span>Ugrasena<\/span> and <\/span>Anakadundubhi<\/span>, with Devaki and <\/span>Rohini<\/span>, committed themselves to the flames<\/span>.<\/span>\u201d Tr. H.H. Wilson<\/span><\/p>\n

Linga<\/span> Purana<\/span> section 1.69.86-87 “<\/span>Krsna<\/span> abandoned the human form under the pretext of the arrow of the hunter <\/span>Jaraka<\/span>, and after blessing that hunter he returned to heaven. <\/span>Due to the curse of <\/span>Astavakra<\/span> as also due to his own Maya (power) the wives of lord <\/span>Krsna<\/span> were abducted by thieves<\/span>…” Tr. Board of Scholars, edited by J.L. <\/span>Shastri<\/span><\/p>\n

Srimad<\/span> Devi <\/span>Bhagavatam<\/span> 4.25.58-61 “The good-looking <\/span>S’amkara<\/span> saying these words remained silent; then <\/span>S’r\u00ee<\/span> Krisna<\/span> bowed down at the feet of <\/span>Girij\u00e2<\/span>, the wife of <\/span>S’amkara<\/span>. Then the Goddess <\/span>P\u00e2rvat\u00ee<\/span> addressed repeatedly to <\/span>V\u00e2sudeva<\/span> and said:– O mighty armed! O <\/span>Krisna<\/span>! O best of human beings! You will be the typical exemplary householder; (all people will try to follow you). When one hundred years will pass away, your race will be extinct, due to the curse of the <\/span>Br\u00e2hmana<\/span> and <\/span>G\u00e2ndh\u00e2ri<\/span>. Your sons and the other <\/span>Y\u00e2davas<\/span> will lose <\/span>their senses on drinking liquor; they will kill each other in the battle field and thus will be extirpated. [63-64] You should know that there can be no remedy to what will inevitably come to pass; therefore no one is to grieve for them; this is all along my view. O <\/span>Madhus\u00fbdana<\/span>! After Your death, due to the curse of <\/span>Ast\u00e2vakra<\/span> Muni, your wives will be forcibly stolen away by indomitable robbers<\/span>. There is no doubt in this.” Tr. Swami <\/span>Vijnananda<\/span><\/p>\n

These verses state<\/span> that due to the curse Krishna was shot dead by the hunter and his wives were abducted by robbers. It would’ve been acceptable if Krishna took the curse on himself and freed his wives from the curse. His inabil<\/span>ity to remove the curse is presented<\/span> in these verses as Krishna respected the curse of th<\/span>e Brahmin and accepted it. A<\/span>s per Padma <\/span>Purana<\/span> version, it was Krishna who cursed his wives after they were <\/span>enamored<\/span> of their stepson Samba,<\/span><\/p>\n

Padma <\/span>Purana<\/span> 1.23.74b-87a “The Lord said: O Brahman, born from the lotus, in the same city there will be sixteen thousand wives of Vasudeva. <\/span>Krsna<\/span>, the universal soul, having eyes like those of a deer, the dignified scion of <\/span>Yadu<\/span> family, who had put the garland of <\/span>Malati<\/span> flowers on his head, and being adorned with his praiseworthy wives, will enjoy with them in a garden rich with flowers, and situated on the bank of a lake, in the spring season abounding in cuckoos and swarms of bees. Samba, <\/span>Jambavatl’s<\/span> son, adorned with all (kinds of ornaments), going along with the path nearby, really of the form of Cupid, will be longingly seen by the ladies and passion will be aroused in the hearts of them who will be tormented by the arrows of Cupid. He, the lord of the world, the omniscient master, having perceived it with his eye of contemplation, will say to them: “The evil being will kidnap you, since you have thus entertained the passion of love (for Samba) in my presence.” Then the revered lord, the cause of beings, the holder of the bow made of horn, being propitiated (by the ladies) tormented with the curse, will say this: “(You will observe) the vow, beneficial in the future, which sage <\/span>Dalbhya<\/span>, emancipator of the fishermen living in the north and of an unlimited (generosity of) mind will tell you.” Saying so and leaving them, the lord vanished. Then after a (long) time when the burden (on the earth as a result of the great <\/span>Bharatawar<\/span>) will be lightened and when the fight with clubs (among the <\/span>Yadavas<\/span>) will be over, when <\/span>Kesava<\/span> will have come back to the heaven, when the entire <\/span>Yadu<\/span>-family will be no more, when even <\/span>Arjuna<\/span> will be defeated by the thieves, when <\/span>Krsna’s<\/span> wives will be kidnapped and will be enjoyed by the fishermen for a hundred million years and when they will be (thus) tormented, a devout soul, <\/span>Dalbhya<\/span> by name, with great penance (to his credit) will come there.\u201d<\/span> Tr. N.A. Deshpande<\/span><\/p>\n

Padma <\/span>Purana<\/span> 1.23.91-121 \u201cO revered sir, all of us have been perforce enjoyed by the evil beings; we have slipped from (i.e. erred in) our duty. You are our refuge. O <\/span>brahmana<\/span>, you have been formerly instructed by the intelligent <\/span>Kesava<\/span>. Why have we become prostitutes after having come in contact with the lord? O you, whose wealth is penance, explain to us the duties of the prostitutes.\u201d I shall tell you what <\/span>Dalbhya<\/span> Caikitayana<\/span> said to them. <\/span>Dalbhya<\/span> said: Formerly <\/span>Narada<\/span> approached you, who were proud, while (you were) sporting in the water of the <\/span>Manasa<\/span> lake. All of you were daughters of Agni and were the nymphs in olden days. Not saluting <\/span>Narada<\/span> through haughtiness you asked the sage conversant with deep and abstract meditation: \u201cAdvise us as to how Narayana will be our husband.\u201d From him, this boon and this curse came forth (i.e. <\/span>Narada<\/span> gave this boon to and pronounced this <\/span>curse on the ladies) in ancient days: \u201cBy giving a couple of beds with articles of gold (to a <\/span>brahmana<\/span>) on the twelfth day of the bright fortnight of <\/span>Caitra<\/span> and Vaisakha, Narayana will certainly be your husband (i.e. you will obtain Narayana as your husband); (and) since, you asked me (a question) without saluting me, due to your selfish addiction to your beauty and good fortune, you will be kidnapped by thieves and will become prostitutes.\u201d Thus, due to the curse of <\/span>Narada<\/span> and also that of <\/span>Kesava<\/span>, all of you, deluded by passion, have become prostitutes. O you excellent ladies, listen, even now, to what I shall say. The lord of lords, the best speaker, formerly said to the hundreds and thousands of thousands of the wives of the demons, the <\/span>Asuras<\/span> (the evil spirits\u2014enemies of gods), the sons of <\/span>Diti<\/span> and the goblins, when these (ladies) were married and enjoyed by force (by the gods), after hundreds of the <\/span>Asuras<\/span> and demons were killed by the gods in the war between gods and <\/span>Asuras<\/span> (that took place) in ancient days: \u201cO you devout and beautiful ladies, now live as prostitutes in king\u2019s residences and in temples of gods; you will obtain your livelihood from the king and the master; and all of you will have good fortune as per your capacity. He, who enters your house with the fee should be served by you with attitude of love void of deceit\u2026 At that time, he, having the five arrows as his soul (i.e. Cupid), will go (i.e. remain) near Hari. She should worship the lotus-eyed (god i.e. <\/span>Visnu<\/span>), followed by eulogies of Cupid. She should worship the feet (of the image of the deity saying:) \u2018My salutation to Kama\u2019; (she should worship) the shanks (saying:) \u2018My salutation to <\/span>Vaimohakarin<\/span>\u2019; (she should worship) the generative organ (of the image of the deity saying:) \u2018My salutation to <\/span>Kandarpanidhi<\/span>\u2026Having thus worshipped <\/span>Govinda<\/span>, the lord of the form of <\/span>Ananga<\/span>, the lady having made an offering with sandal, flowers and incense, and then having invited a Brahmana knowing customary observances, who has mastered the Vedas and who is without any deformity, and then having honoured him with adoration of sandal, flowers etc. she should give the <\/span>brahmana<\/span> rice of the measure of a <\/span>prastha<\/span> along with a pot of ghee, (saying:) \u2018May <\/span>Madhava<\/span> be pleased\u2019. She should bear in mind that the best Brahmana, who has eaten well according to his sweet will, is Kamadeva meant for Rati. The lady should do whatever the best Brahmana desires.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Padma <\/span>Purana<\/span> 1.23.130b-142 \u201cThen having <\/span>circumambulated<\/span> and allowed the best Brahmana to go, she should take all (the articles) like the bed, the seat, to the Brahmana\u2019s house. Since then whosoever comes to her house for sexual enjoyment should be similarly honoured on a Sunday and should always be adored. Thus till the thirteenth month arrives, she should gratify a Brahmana and then send him to his house; with his permission (she may entertain) a handsome (person) till he arrives (to her residence). When she has a difficulty as a result of impurity due to child-birth or abortion or from the king or a difficulty due to divine or human (forces) or due to an eclipse, then she should offer herself according to her capacity, for fifty-eight times. This (vow) I have especially narrated to you, since this is the duty that should be always performed by the prostitutes in this world\u2026\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
