Salva conveys the message of Jarasandha to Kalayavana





Vaishampayana said — 0, Janamejaya, the king of Yavanas known as kalayavana, was the strongest of all, who protected his people according to dharma.

He was well-versed in trivarga (dharma, artha and ката) quite intelligent, who practiced the six elements of polity, provided refuge to others, was unaware of the seven types of evils and was always absorbed in virtues.

He was quite learned, religiuos minded, truthful, had controlled all the sense orngans, well versed in the welfare, and followed the gains which were difficult toget.

There was none equal to his strength. He was valorous and was served by the courtiers. Once when he was seated in his court, surrounded with his courtiers, quite comfortably, when the selfconscious and leaned Yavanas were present in his court in attendance with him, and several divine stories were being narrated, at the same time the fragnent cool breeze started blowing. The cool and pleasent breeze aroused their passions and lust.

All those present in the king’s court, become desirous to know what it was? The eyes of all of them were blossoming with surprise. Even the king kalayavana, could not remain unaffected by the same.

Then all of them witnessed a divine plane descending from the sky having the wheels of gold. The plane was studded with various types of gems. The divine flags were fluttering over it. The plane was driven by the steed which moved with the speed of the wind.

The chariot or the plane had been built by Visvakarma with Jambunada gold, which was shining like the sun rays. It had been covered with the tiger skins from all the sides.

The plane created are in the minds of the enemies and was approching from the southern direction. It could shatter the enemy chariots in no time.

Finding that the illustrious Saubhapati king Salva was seated in the plane, the minister of the king of Yavana, who was the best among the ministers of the king of Yavana, who was the best among the ministers was immensely pleased and spoke again and again, “Bring arghya, bring, padya.”

At that point of time, the valorous Kalayavana, himself rose from his royal seat of lion throne, and moved forward with arghyas, and stood at the stair of the plane, which was meant for discending from the same.

The immensely illustrious king Salva went to the king Kalayavana, with delight and fearlessly got down from the chariot alone, and with the desire of meeting his friend, entered his abode with great satisfaction.

Finding that the great monarch was standing there carrying arghya, he said, «O intelligent one, I am not fit enough to receive arghya (because I am a messenger).

I have arrived here as a messenger of the monarchs. The learned Jarasandha and several other monarchs have sent me collectively. Therefore, О Maharaja, I think therefore I am not entitled to the arghya meant for the rulers alone.

Kalayavana said — О valorous one, I am fully aware that you have arrived here as a messenger and the king Jarasandha of Magadha together with other rulers have sent you here.

О monarch, О intelligent one, because of that I intend to adore you patiently. In case you get adored with the offering of argha, padya etc, then in this way all the rulers monarchs would be adored. Therefore, О monarch, now you occupy the shining lion throne with me.

Vaishampayana said — 0 Janamejaya, then Kalayavana shaking hand with Salva enquired about his welfare. Thereafter both of them sat together over a seat.

Kalayavana said — О king, with the strength of arms of the great monarch Jarasandha, we live fearlessly as the gods depending on Indra live with comfort, what type of the grave calamity has been fallen over the king Jarasandha, that he had to send you to me?

What is the message conveyed by him, you speak out to me truthfully. What is the command of the lord for me? I shall surely obey his command. At his command I can undertake an extremely difficult task even.”

Salva said — О Rajendra, О lord of Yavanas, whatever the king Jarasandha has desired me to speak to you, I shall repeat the same to you.

Jarasandha has said that the extermely invincible Shri Krishna has appered (in Mathura) is a cause of trouble for the entire world. On coming to know about his misconducts, I became ready to kill him.

Many monarchs joined me with their armies. With their vast armies I had surrounded the Gomantaka mountain (because at that point of time Shri Krishna and Balarama were present at the said mountain top) After laying siege of the mountain, I heard the speech of Damaghosa, the rulers of Chedi country which was quite meaningfull. Then for the destruction of both of them, the entire mountain was put to flames.

The fire was multiplied into hundreds and thousands of flames which appeared like the Sarhvartaka fire of the time of dissolution. Finding that fire flames increasing Balarama, the carrier of the banner of tala tree, took a jump from the mountain peak and fell in the ocean of army. Falling there, he started destroying the elephants, horses, soldiers as well as the chariots besides the foot soldiers. It became impossible to kill him at that time.

By pulling and pushing the plough like the serpent king he destroyed the army including the elephants, horses, chariots and foot soldiers with the use of musala.

He killed elephants with elephants, chariots with chariots, cavalrymen with the cavalrymen, besides the soldiers with soldiers.

As the sun has the severe heat during the summer season, similarly the battle ground, having been filled with several of the monarchs resembling the sun, were killed at the hand of Balarama.

Shri Krishna is younger than Balarama, who is the best of the holder of cakra. He is resplendent like the sun, holding cakra in his hand, he pounced upon the enemy army as the lion pounces upon the useless deer.

The immensely glorious Shri Krishna, shook the mountain with his feet and then he jumped from the high mountain peak amidst the enemy army. At that point of time the great mountain appeared like dancing. It actually was bathed with the flow of the water from its springs, extinguishing the entire fire at the same time. The mountain then rotating itself entered the earth and disappeared.

О king, by jumping below from the waters of the mountain Sr! Krishna, with cakra held in his hand killed many monarchs as well as the army.

With the throwing of the vast cakra, he attacked also with the club. On the other hand Balarama striking with the miisala held in his hand, he reduced to pulp the elephants, horses and the soldiers.

With the cakra which went in flames with anger, besides the plough, all the soldiers as well as the monarchs were reduced to ashes.

Both the greats warriors, who were on foot, destroyed in a moment in numuble elephants, horses, and army of humans, carrying flags in a moment.

Having been frightened with the fire flames of Cakra the army fleeing from the battle ground, I started fighting with both of them surrounding them from all the sides. At that point of time, Balarama, the elder brother of Krishna, holding a club and the plough in his hands arrived before Jarasandha to fight with him.

He, like an injured lion, destroyed my twelve Aksauhini army, discarded the plough and the miisala. Then carrying the club in his hand, he attacked me (Jarasandha).

Its force was like the fall of vajra. He then attacking me with the goda, again stood in the battle field holding a sakti in his hand.

As in the earlier times, Karttikeya had shattered the Karuncha mountain, similarly aiming over my sensitive spots, he intended to shoot the Sakti at me, looking at me as if he was going to reduce me to ashes.

Observing the horrific form of Baladeva in the battlefield, who is the person on earth to stand before him, desirous of his life.

Then he raising the terrific gada held by him in his hand, resembling the Kaladanda, stood in the battle field. The goda was being rotated at the inpiration of the destiny.

At that point of time lord Brahma with his speech resembling the thunder of clouds, spoke in invisible form, “O sinless one, donot attack on Jarasandha. He is invincible for you. He is to be killed by someone else. Therefore, О Balarama, the carrier of plough, donot attack on him.

On hearing the divine voice from the sky, I feeling worried, returned from the battle field, because those words were spoken by Brahma himself, which took almost the life out of my body.

Therefore, I, for the benefit of all the monarchs went to request you something, which you can accomplish on hearing the same.

Gargya, the great sage, whose feet are adored even by the gods, as well as the asuras, observing Brahmacarya for twelve years and consuming the iron powder, performed penance. With the desire of getting a son, he performed severe and hard tapas for Siva. Thereafter, he achieved you as a son comparable to Indra the lord of gods. You are invincible from the people born in Mathura.

As a result of the penance performed by Gargya the great sage and because of the boon of lord Siva, you were born on earth. Getting in conflict with you Krishna would be destroyed as the melting of the snow with the rays of sun.

О king, you getting inspired with the words of the rulers try to be victorious over Shri Krishna, you better attack Mathura in order to overcome him. Entering the city and the kingdom of Mathura, killing Shri Krishna enhance your glory.

Both Shri Krishna and Balarama with their kiths and kins, were born in Mathura and are Mathurs. You will surely be victorious over both the brothers, after invading Mathura. "

Salva said — О monarch, Jarasandha who is like the sun among the rulers and words spoken by him for the welfare of all the rulers, have been repeated by me before you. You should now consult with your ministers intelligently, on the entire issue and should do what is considered beneficial and proper for you.

Here ends chapter — 53, of Visnu Parva of the Harivamsa Purana, khilabhaga of the epic of Mahabharata relating to Salva’s conveying the message of Jarasandha to kalayavana. (Vrs. 1-57, P.T. = 5984)
