Emperuman took avatara as Krishna to do “dushta nigraham and

sistaparipAlanam” thereby making bhoomi a better place to live in.

In gokulam, Krishna did a number of leelas. Among them the leelas of

Krishna with the gopis, (“pancha laksham kudi pengal” say our

acharyas) viz., rasa leela, kudakooththu etc widely attract the

rasikas/Krishna bhakthas. Bhoomi piratti saw all these leelas and

was awed by the bhakyam of the gopis and gopans who joined hands with

kutti kannan in all his bala leelas. Nappinai piratti, avatara of

neelA devi had the great bhakyam of becoming the consort of Krishna

at gokulam. In order to marry nappinai piratti, Krishna showed his

bravery by subduing 7 mighty bulls at the same time. This act of

Krishna for the sake of nappinnai piratti has been talked by azhvars

at length in many of their paasurams.

 

Then in dwaraka, Krishna married 16,108 devis all of whom are

considered to be avataras of Sridevi nachiyar. Wanting to do all

services to the lord at a time Sridevi nAchiyar took various forms

and did all the kainkaryams.

 

Won’t bhoomi devi nAchiyar envy the other two pirattis, Sridevi and

neela dEvi enjoying the bhOgyam of doing kainkaryams to emperuman in

an avatara taken especially for removing the miseries of bhoomi?

Just removing misery is only – “Yogam” Then what is “kshEmam”?

Attaining the nithya kainkaryam under the divine feet of emperuman is

the only ultimate kshEmam. So bhoomi piratti took an exclusive

avatara to attain the divine feet of emperuman.

 

Let us see about that great avatara of bhoomi piratti in the next posting.
