water. Krsna began to take rest under a huge hanyan tree lying down on a slab of stone and covering his body by a yellow robe. He had put his one leg on the other leg. Every Vāsudeva has padma-mani in his foot. From a distance as eye of deer shines such was the shining of the padma-mani in the foot of Sri Krsna. Jarākumāra was wandering in the same forest. He was in the search of prey. When he came near that huge banyan tree, then from a distance, it seemed to him that a deer is sitting under the tree. At once he put a sharp arrow on the low and released it with his full strength. As the arrow pierced the foot of Sri Riya he tossed and trembled about. A painful cry came out of his mouth. He thought lest this arrow may be of Jarākumāru. Hearing that painful human cry Jarākumāra also came there almost running and began to weep bitterly. Seeing Jarūkumāra in front, Sri Krsna said to him
Jarākumára ! What is your fault in it? It was such destined. How could be otherwise the forecast of Bhagawāna Aristanemi. Balarama is about to reach here. You quickly run away from here, otherwise you cannot remain alive. Balarāma will definitely kill you.
Jarākumāra wanted to escape from the meanest deed and for this he left Dwārakā and accepted to live in Kośāmra forest, but the same sin occurred by his own hands. He began to weep bitterly. But what can be done now? What has been done cannot be undone.
Śri Krsna had died, before Baluräma returned.
