Srimadh Bagawatham - Krishnavataram Part 9




 Chakatasuran: The Asuran came in the guise of a cart wheel and was killed by Lord  Krishna. The cart wheel is our repeated journey through samsara which is destroyed by Perumal’s grace.
Unlike Putana, Chakatasuran’s body was not found. This was because Perumal killed him wth His thiruvadi. Therefore, Chakatasuran’s body became purified and was converted to Shudha Satvam. Hence, even his body reached Sri Vaikuntham. Perumal used His thiruvadi to kill only Chakatasuran.
Trinavratan: He was a whirlwind and represents rajo gunam which promotes aggressive behaviur in us. This quality carries away Bagawad Bakthi. Bagawan suppress our rajo gunam so that we can enjoy Him here itself.
Namasankeerthanam rids all our sins similar to 1000 years of darkness in a cave being dispelled by a single lamp. If the lamp is turned off darkness comes back similarly if we stop namasankeerthanam we are once again affected by sins. Namasankeerthanam is indicated when Gargar performed the naming ceremony for the Lord.
The Lord ate dirt and opened His mouth when ordered by Yashoda. He revealed to her the entire Universe to show that He keeps us safely in His tummy during pralayam.
Butter Thief:Everything is His property but by mistake we think that we the atma are our property. We will never realzie that He is our master unles  He takes us. To show this He stole butter which is equal to atma while breaking the pot to show He is not interested in the body. While performing prapatti, butter is placed before Perumal and He is asked to accept us by reminding Him about the way in which He showed us that we are His property by stealing butter. Butter takes the shape of any pot when melted like that the atma can reside in any body from a worm to a man.
