Kunthisthuthi…
Kunthidevi offered a very devotional prayer to Lord Krishna by describing His various qualities and remembering all the merciful support He gave them. She sees Him as the ONE that lives in every one as the Chaithanyam.
She said Krishna was kinder to her, more than His own mother Devaki who had suffered in Kamsa’s prison for a very long time and lost her children. But Kunthi and her sons were always protected by the Lord. Bheema from Duryodhana’s poison, all of them from “Arakkillam”,
Panchali from “Vastrakshepam”, and now even Uthara’s baby in the womb from Aswathama’s Brahmastram. How indebted the Pandavas are to Lord Krishna!
(Note – Let us ask ourselves, if we are given a choice, what will we select – all the worldly wealths or the Lord himself?).
Thus she prayed to Him, to stay with them further and moreover, protect Uthara and her child. How can the most merciful Lord reject such a devotee’s appeal? So, He consented to stay with them.
Note – Krishna’s compassion to His true devotees is vividly expressed here. When you turn back in your own life, you can also see so many examples where you were supported by that invisible force. Whenever your strength vanished and prayed for help, you were always taken care of.
So, let us recognize that Power and feel grateful from the deepest core of our hearts…
