Akrur was highly pleased on seeing the face of Krishna and he absorbed himself in selfless service of Krishna
He touched the feet of Krishna and circumambulated around him
Having been absorbed in great affection, whatever food and victuals etc. were there in the house, he brought them all before Krishna
Whatever desire Akrur had in his mind, Krishna, the son of Yashoda fulfilled it.997.
Fulfilling the desire of Akrur and taking Udhava alongwith him, Krishna returned to his home
On coming home the medicants were called and getting pleased various types of alms were given to them in charity
Poet Shyam says, being jealous of him, he took them out of the house and gave a lot of charity.
By this act, there was so much approbation of Krishna, the poet Shyam says that with this praise even uptil this day, the daytime appears white in the sphere of death.998.
Akrur came to the palace of Krishna and fell at his feet
He began to praise Krishna, the killer of Kansa and Bakasura
(He) forgot all other senses, (just) became engrossed in the similitude of Sri Krishna.
Absorbed in such a praise he forgot his own consciousness, all his sufferings ended and the happiness was increased in his mind.999.
This Krishna is the son of Devaki who also graciously became the son of Nand
He had killed Kansa and also had torn asunder the heart of Bakasura, he is known as the hero of Yadavas
O Krishna! the killer of Keshi, the destroyer of all the sins and the killer also of Trinavrata
Showing your face to me, you have destroyed all my sins.”1000.
Hey Shyam! You are a thief (but) you (steal) the sorrows of the saints and are called the giver of happiness.
Krishna is said to be the mighty and powerful, the destroyer of the sufferings of the saints, the giver of peace and comforts, the Thug, who stole the garments of the gopis and the overthrower of the warriors of Kansa
He stays away from the sins and the savious of the people from all types of ailments
The poet Shyam says that the same Krishna is the Supreme Pundit who describes the mysteries of the four Vedas 1001.
Saying thus, Akrur fell at the feet of Krishna
He eulogised him repeatedly and all his sufferings ended in an instant
(And) the high and great Yash of that scene is thus uttered by the poet from his own mouth.
The poet has described the beauty of this spectacle like this that Akrur became subtle by wearing the armour of the name of the Lord in order to fight fearlessly against the evils.1002.
Then he imitated Sri Krishna in this way, O Hariji! It was you who overcame the enemy of 'Mur' (name).
Then he eulogised Krishna and said, “O Lord (Krishna)! you had killed the demon Mur and killed Kabandh and Ravana etc. in the dreadful war
“You gave the kingdom of Lanka to Vibhishana and you yourself went to Ayodhya along with Sita
I accept it without hesitation that you had yourself performed all these feats.1003.
husband of Lachmi! O Garuda Dhuja! O lord of the world! (You alone) are called (by the name) Kanh.
“O Banner of Garuda! O Sire of Lakshmi! and the Lord of the world! listen to me, Thou art the support of the whole world,”
Oh God! Take my love This kind of speech was heard by Krishna.
Krishna anticipated that Akruru wanted to say something about his deliverance from the attachment and mineness, therefore he effected Akrur’s mineness by granting him the boon through the mind and he himself kept sitting silently.1004.
Speech of Krishna addressed to Akrur:
SWAYYA
“O uncle! without comprehending me, you have seen me as the manifestation of the Lord
Give me the comfort, so that my life may become comfortable
“After Vasudev, you will be considered as the seniormost
I bow before you,” saying thus Krishna smiled.1005.
Hearing these words, Akrur was pleased and he hugged both Krishna and Balram
He forsook the sorrow of his mind,
He knew (them) as little nephews and did not consider them as the doers of the world.
And considered the small nephews as merely nephews and not the creator of the world. In this way, this story happened there, which has ben sung by the poet Shyam in praise of Krishna.1006.
End of the description of “Going to the house of Akrur” in Krishnavatara (based on Dasham Skandh) in Bachittar Natak.
Now begins the description of sending Akrur to Aunt
SWAYYA
Sri Krishna laughed and said, O best warrior (Akrur)! Move to Hastanapur ('Gajapur').
Krishna said smilintly to Akrur, “You go to Hastinapur in order to enquire about the condition of the sons of my father’s sister
“There a blind king is under the control of the wicked Duryodhana, bring his new also
