Hi,
Everything that is good is unstoppable. The Hindu scriptures reveal that Lord Vishnu would descend on earth when ever there is an excess of evil in order to annihilate it and preserve the righteous and protect the good. The birth of Lord Krishna was one such divine event that was unstoppable.
In dwapara yug, there was an evil force called Kamsa, the ruler of Mathura. His people were utterly terrified of him and his demonic rule. He was ruthless to the extent that when a prophesy was heard that the 8th son of his own sister Devaki would become his destroyer, he tried by all means to avoid it. But he could not stop it, because the god and the good are unstoppable. Here it is HOW?
|
What was attempted to stop the god (and the
good) happening
|
How it became Unstoppable
|
1
|
Kamsa wanted to kill his sister so that there
was no question of any children born to her and the prophesy coming true
|
But he spared her, as he was promised
that every newborn child of hers would be handed over to him soon after their
birth.
|
2
|
Kamsa imprisoned Devaki and her husband
Vasudeva so that the children born to them could be killed soon after
their birth.
|
But the prison’s doors opened on their own
when needed by Vasudeva.
|
3
|
Kamsa employed high degree of security to
prevent any escape from the prison on the night of the birth of the 8th child.
|
The security fell asleep and were not aware
of any movements that night.
|
4
|
At midnight on ashtami, the
divine baby was born in Kamsa's prison. Kamsa thought he would kill the baby
the next morning.
|
But Vasudeva got divine instructions that he
should carry the baby to Gokula in the night itself. He was told that 'nothing
would bar his path.'
|
5
|
As Vasudeva was carrying the baby to Gokula
in the middle of the night, there was heavy rain and the river Yamuna was in
full spate.
|
But, a five-hooded snake followed him
providing cover to the baby and the river Yamuna gave way as Vasudeva crossed
it without any difficulty.
|
6
|
Vasudeva returned to Mathura and as he
entered the prison, there were prison doors and the security guards.
|
But the doors of the prison opened and closed
themselves while the security were still unconscious of what was happening.
|
The God was born. The good was unstoppable, however hard the evil tried stopping it happening.
Happy Krishna Janmashthami!
To your unstoppable success,
With love and regards,
Siva
