[28] 12TH OF THE NEXT 24 TIRTHANKARS Shri Krishna
(1) Krishna was a snake killer in his previous birth. (2) In next birth the female snake becomes mother and Krishna becomes his son Gangadutta. He is thrown by her in the garbage. (3) Gangadutta renounced the world. He resolute Niyana (Strong desire for worldly wishes) to be loved by all. He died and goes to heaven. (4) Devaki's seventh child was Shri Krishna. (5) Ketumanjari's father asked her to decide between being a Queen or maid. She decided to be a maid and she was married to a weaver. She did not do any housework so the weaver beat her. She complains her father, she renounces the world. (6) Drunken Shyam and others beat Dweepayan. Dweepayan resolute Niyana and becomes Deity Agni Kumar and put Dwarika city on fire. (7) Bharat told his 98 brothers, "Take your own kingdoms given by me and live under my order". 98 brothers came to God Rushabhdev to say "We will fight". Rushabhdev delivered sermons to them to shed Kashay (passions like Anger, Ego and Greed) along with total nonviolence. Upon hearing this sermons all the 98 brothers renounced the world. (8) Krishna advises Arjun in the Bhagawatgeeta to indulge in war with brothers Kauravas, Guru and friends with Kashay and follow his warrior roots and instincts (Kshatriya Dharma). He said, "If you do not do that you will bring disrespect to your religion, disgrace to your self and commit sins". (9) Dwarika is burning. (10) In the absence of Baldev, Jara Kumar shot an arrow under the illusion that there was a deer in the bush. Krishna died. (11) Monk Balram reached heaven by severe penance. A carpenter who offered alms with lofty heart to Baldeva, reached heaven and a deer by watching all this and praising also reached heaven. At this time half cut huge branch of a tree fell killing all three.
