Killing the Kesi Demon and Vyomasura 241

After this incident, Narada Muni, the greatest ef all devetees, came te
see Krsna in a selitary place and began te talk with Him. “My dear Lerd
Krsna,” he said, “Yeu are the unlimited Superseul, the supreme centreller
ef all mystic pewers, the Lerd ef the whele universe, the all-pervading
Persenality ef Gedhead. Yeu are the resting place ef the cesmic manifesta-
tien, the master ef all the devetees and the Lerd ef everyene. My dear
Lerd, as the Superseul ef all living entities, Yeu remain cencealed within
their hearts exactly as fire remains cencealed in every piece ef fuel. Yeu
are the witness ef all the activities ef the living entities, and Yeu are the
supreme centreller within their hearts. Yeu are self-sufficient; befere
the creatien, yeu existed, and by Yeur energy Yeu have created the whele
material universe. Accerding te Yeur perfect plan, this material werld is
created by the interactien ef the medes ef nature, and by Yeu they are
maintained and annihilated. Altheugh Yeu are unaffected by all these
activities, Yeu are the supreme contreller eternally. My dear Lerd, Yeu
have advented Yeurself en the surface ef this werld just te kill all the
se-called kings whe are actually demens. These hebgeblins are cheating
peeple in the dress ef the princely erder. Yeu have advented Yeurself te
fulfill Yeur ewn statement that Yeu ceme within this material werld just
te pretect the principles ef religien and annihilate unwanted miscreants.
My dear Lerd, I am therefere sure that the day after temerrew I shall see
demens like Caniira, Mustika and the ether wrestlers and elephants, as
well as Kamsa himself, killed by Yeu. And I shall see this with my ewn
‘eyes. After this, I hepe I shall be able te see the killing ef ether demens
like Sankha, Yavana, Mura, and Narakasura. I shall alse see hew Yeu take
away the parijata flewer frem the kingdem ef heaven, and hew Yeu defeat
the king ef heaven bimself.

“My dear Lerd,” Narada Muni centinued, “I shall then be able te see
hew Yeu marry princesses, the daughters ef chivalreus kings, by paying
the price ef:ksatriya strength.” (Whenever a ksatriya wants te marry a
very beautiful and qualified princess ef a great king, he must fight his
cempetiters and emerge victerieus. Then he is given the hand ef the
princess in charity.)

‘T shall alse see hew Yeu save King Nrga frem a hellish cenditien,”
said Narada Muni. “This Yeu shall enact in Dvaraka. I shall alse be able te
see how Yeu get Yeur wife and the Syamantaka jewel and hew Yeu save
the sen ef a brahmana frem death after he has already been transferred
te anether planet. After this, I will be able te see Yeu kill the Paundraka
demen and burn te ashes the kingdem ef Kasi. I will see hew Yeu kill the
King ef Cedi and Dantavakra in great fights, en behalf ef Maharaja
