Krishna and Balarama
Kans was a cruel king some thousands of years ago. While he
was travelling along with his sister Devaki, he suddenly hears a voice from heaven.
It said that the eighth son born to her will be the incarnation of Lord Vishnu who
will be born to kill him one day. Hence Kans imprisoned his sister and her
husband Vasudev. Vasudev’s first wife Rohini was staying with his friend Nanda
in Gokul. When Devaki was pregnant the seventh time GOD transferred the unborn
child from her body to that of Rohini. This boy born was named as Balarama.
When the eighth child was born every one in Mathura went on to a deep long sleep.
The river Yamuna was in spate .Vasudev took this child and went to Gokul to
replace this child with the child born to Yashoda. As soon he reached the banks
of the river, the river became silent by the touch of the baby’s leg. Hence Vasudev
went and completed the job and bought back the baby girl child to Mathura. Now
Mathura came to life as soon the baby girl reached the prison and began to cry.
Soon Kans came to kill the child, as soon as he lifted the baby in his hand;
the baby flew from his hands and said that his killer was born in Gokul. Kans
was angry and disappointed. The baby born to Yashoda and Nanda was named as Krishna.
He along with his brother Balarama Killed many demons
