________________ 15. GITA Omens appeared in Dwaraka, Day by day strong winds blew. Earthen pots showed cracks or broke from no apparent cause. Society became corrupt. The day of the new moon coincided with the thirteenth and the fourteenth lunation. The fourteenth lunation has been made the fifteenth by Rahu once more. Such a day had happened at the time of the great battle of the Kurukshetra War. It has once more appeared after 36 years. The messengers proclaimed at the command of Vasudeva Krishna that the Vrishnis should make a journey to the seacoast for bathing in the sacred waters of the ocean. (16,2) La jeunesse de Bacchus (The Youth of Bacchus) William Bouguereau 1884. 429
