O King, when the burden of unrighteousness grew too heavy upon the earth, Lord Hari, the Supreme, instructed the gods to descend into the illustrious Yadu dynasty. At His behest, the divine beings took birth in a hundred noble families, plus one, all to aid in subduing the forces of evil. Among these exalted Yadavas, it was Lord Hari Himself who shone as the very measure of greatness, ruling with sovereign might. Under His leadership, all the Yadavas who followed Him flourished and prospered. So absorbed were the Vrishnis in Krishna—whether lying in their beds, seated, walking about, conversing, playing, bathing, or engaged in any daily activity—that they became oblivious even to their own separate selves, their hearts and minds utterly captivated by Him. When the Lord was born among the Yadus, the earth itself became a holy place. The celestial river, the Ganga, was rendered pure just by washing His feet. Both those who loved and those who opposed Him attained their true forms, conquered by the unconquerable Lord. Simply by hearing or uttering His name—which removes all inauspiciousness—the sacred lineage of the Yadus was established. Is it any wonder, then, that Krishna, the wielder of the wheel of time, lifted the burden of the earth? Victory to Him—the abode of all beings—whose birth from Devaki is renowned, who, surrounded by the foremost of the Yadus, destroyed unrighteousness with His own mighty arms. With His beautiful, smiling face, He removed the suffering of all creatures, both moving and unmoving, and kindled the god of love in the hearts of the women of Vraja and the city alike. Thus, let the glorious deeds of the foremost Yadu—whose playful form enacted such perfect pastimes to protect the righteous path, and whose actions sever the bonds of karma—be heard by those who wish to follow in His footsteps. For by hearing, chanting, or contemplating the wondrous stories of Mukunda, even a mortal, through devotion, attains His abode, which lies beyond the swift reach of death itself. Indeed, for His sake, even mighty kings abandoned their homes to seek the forest. In this way concludes the ninetieth chapter, entitled "The Description of the Deeds of Sri Krishna," from the tenth canto, second half, of the great Purana, Srimad Bhagavata—the scripture for the paramahamsas.
