The Prem sagur
Caturbhujamisra, active 17th century
Krishna (Hindu deity)
Dwarpur age, Shree Krishnù Chund having descended upon the earth,
shall go to you, you will then be released.’ O great king! from that
time I have been lying in this blind well, in the form of a lizard,
and have meditated upon your lotus feet; you have now come and
delivered me from a great affliction, and carried me across the ocean
of existence.”
Having proceeded thus far in the narrative, Shree Shookdeo Jee said to
the Raja Pureechit,--O great king! the Raja Nurug having thus spoken,
took leave; and, sitting in a chariot went to Vishnù’s paradise; and
Shree Krishnù Chund Jee explained to all the cowherds’ children, and
began to say, “Do not any of you commit a crime against a brahmin, nor
seize on a brahmin’s portion; whatever you may have vowed in your
minds to offer, keep back no portion of it; speak the truth to
brahmins. Jum has inflicted this punishment on one, who received back,
what had been given to a brahmin; continue to be the servants of
brahmins, submit to all the transgressions of brahmins; whoever
respects a brahmin respects me, let not any one think a brahmin and me
separate from each other, he, who shall suppose that there is a
difference between me and a brahmin, shall fall into hell; and he who
shall treat with consideration and honour a brahmin, shall obtain my
favour; and shall, without doubt, go to heaven.”
O great king! having thus spoken, Shree Krishnù Jee took them all
thence, and returned to the city of Dwarka.
CHAPTER LXVI.
Shree Shookdeo Jee said,--O great king! on one occasion, Shree
Krishnù Chund, the root of joy, and Bulram, the abode of happiness,
were sitting in a jewelled house, when Buldeo Jee said to Krishnù,
“Brother! when Kuns sent to invite us from Brindabun, and we went off
to Muttra, then you and I promised the cowherdesses, and Nund and
Jusodha, that we would return quickly, we have not gone there, but
taken up our abode at Dwarka; they will be thinking of us. With your
permission I will go and see the place of our birth, and will offer
them consolation.” Krishnù gave his consent; and upon this, Bulram
took leave of them all, carrying a ploughshare and pestle; and
mounting his chariot, started off.
