(38) Oh KaalanEmi kaalanE! Oh Swami! The One who was a Yama (death) of KaalanEmi asurA! [OR] the One who runs the kaala (Time) ChakrA over ages! Kaala nAthA! Sarva Swami! The One who broke the tusker of huge strong elephant Kuvalayaapeetam and then practiced dancing on the heads of poisonous KaaLingan snake in the middle of the Yamuna river! Oh cloud hued KaNNA! The one who danced holding the array of pots on is head in the intersection of streets! (kudakkootthA!) heeding to the cowherd woman’s plea in order to get a handful of butter from her! [what a sowlabhyam] The One who wears most fragrant thuLasi garland on his divine chest! Kutti KaNNan went in between the strong legs of the huge strong elephant while fighting with the same (at the entrance of Kamsa’s palace] and that angered the elephant which made the waters ooze out of its forehead and then Kutti KaNNan broke its tusker and killed the same. The way he danced in the intersection of streets with pots on His head is in no way less enjoyable for Him than the dance He performed on the poisonous many headed Kaalingan- the snake. When gopas with their cattle strayed to the spot where part of Yamuna river by name Kalindi was there and the thirsty boys drank along with the cattle from that pond and dropped dead. KaNNan gazed upon them and realized what happended. They revived with his divine glance and KaNNan decdied to resolve the issue then and there with Kaalingan snake who loves in that pond making the whole pond waters poisonous with his presence. So, while the Gopas watched, KaNNan climbed the tree nearby , removed His peethAmbaram, peacock flowers and the few flowers, tightened his lion cloth and jumped straight into the pond. So great was the jump the water splashed few meters high. Kaalingan was angered and even surprised and with terrific rage, attacked the Kutti fiercely and stung Him with his fangs. He entwined Himself around the divine Body of Kutti in order to choke him and cut him into various pieces. The Gopaka boys could not bear to see the darling KaNNan being chiked. They felt certain that His death is unavoidable and feel down with sorrowful tears. Cattle wept and lowered their heads in distress. The elders by now were informed and the whole cowherd clan has arraived at the pond bank alarmed including Nandhagopan. They were more wooried as there was no Balarama that day with Kutti. Balarama was never perturbed and consoled all and even prevented Nandhan from jumping into the waters to save KaNNan. It was almost few long minutes and KaNNan was in the grip of the deadly snake. When KaNNan realized the distress of entire cowherd clan and of his father and mother even, KaNNan grew himself so much that the snake could not hold him anymore. KaNNan leaped onto one of the heads of Kaalingan and held the tail with His one hand. Angered Kaalingan raised his other heads and their tongues to touch KaNNan and kill Him; KaNNan jumped on those heads that rose up; Thus, it became kind of dancing jumping from one head to other and taming down one head and the other- thus touching all heads of Kaalingan with His lotus feet (wow! What a bhAgyam!). The sight was indeed wonderful and enchanting for everyone and even Devas appeared in the sky! They can not miss such golden opportunity of seeing and enjoying paravtham in such simple enchanting form doing such a wonderful dance! Kaalingan exhausted by his own struggle and heeding to the requests and prayers of his (Kaalingan’s) wives, KaNNan spared him from getting killed. Kaalingan went with his family, for Ramanaka Dweepa and left Yamuna river. nATHA! Only the master and Swami needs to protect His property and hence You did that wonderful deed of protecting Your property, namelt Gopakas and cattle! You did it so effortlessly and charmingly! He shows His Supremacy of Lordship with his wearing thuLasi garland and declares His Parathvam! The pots, the snakes and He- all are dark hued colour- and hence AzhwAr addresses Him- koNdal vaNNA! Cloud coloured Lord! Not just colour; also in showering His dayA like the cloud that showers with no partiality.

For ur information,hope everyone knows, in Sri Naaraayaneeyam, there are ten slokas in the 5th centum, describing the beauty of this leela. it starts with ' Athavaariniko ratharam paninam.......' For bhagthas who want to drink more of krishna leela, Naarayaneeyam is a good source. adiyaen dhasan, sridharan.
