Kanha, it is so said “Therefore [ until ] will be. "
Then that Kanha Vasudeva said thus to the saint Arit:hanemi.
“And, sir, coming to death in the death-month -where shall I go from here ; where shall I be born?”
Then the saint Aritthanemi said thus to Kanha Vasudeva.
." Verily thus Kanha, you will be sent by your father and mother—while in the meantime, the city of Bāravas shall be consumed by the wrath of Divayana, fire and wine-; sent forth with Rāma Baladeva on the southern coast to Pandu-Mahura in the presence of five Pandavas - the sons of king Pandu, Johitthilla and others, and there in the Kosamba forest, under an excellent Nyagodhra tree, on a slab of stone on earth, your body covered with a yellow robe, you will be pierced in the left foot by a sharp arrow released from the bow by Jarākumāra So will you come to death in the deathmonth and will be reborn as a hell-dweller in a flaming hell in the third earth, Vāluyappabhā.”
