TEXT No. 35

Krishne gate bhagawati sastari utpathagaminam
Tadbhinna setum aham adya sasmi pasya mevalam.


ENGLISH SYNONYMS

Krishne—Lord Krishna, Gate—having departed from this world, Bhagawati—the Personality of Godhead, Sastair—the Supreme Ruler, Utpathagaminam—of those who are upstarts, Tadbhinna—being separated, Setum—the protecter, Aham—my self, Adya—to day, Sasmi—shall punish, Pasya—just see, Me—mine, Valam—prowess.


TRANSLATION

On the departure of Lord Sri Krishna the Personality of Godhead and the Supreme Ruler of everyone, the upstarts have flourished separated from the protector and therefore I shall take up the matter to punish them just see my power.


PURPORT

The little inexperienced Brahmin puffed up by a little Brahma-teja became influenced by the spell of Kali yuga. Maharaj Parikshit gave license to Kali yuga for living in four places as mentioned hereinbefore but by his very expert Government the personality of Kali hardly found out the places allotted to him. The personality of Kaliyuga was therefore seeking out the opportunity to establish authority and by the Grace of the Lord the personality of Kali found out a hole in the puffed up little inexperienced son of a Brahmin. The little Brahmin wanted to show his prowess in the matter of destruction and had the audacity to punish a great king like Maharaj Parikshit. He wanted to take up the place of Lord Krishna after His departure? These are the principal signs of upstarts who went to take the place of Sri Krishna under the influence of the age of Kali. An upstart with little power wants to become an incarnation of the Lord. There are many such false incarnations after the departure of Lord Krishna on the face of the globe and they are misleading the innocent public by accepting the spiritual obedience of general mass of people for maintaining a false prestige of his own. In other words the personality of Kali got the opportunity of his reign through this son of a Brahmin Sringhee.
