Shri Krishna

When Shri Krishna was sitting with the severed head of his devotee in his hand, why, what was the reason? When Shri Krishna was sitting with the severed head of his devotee in his hand.... This story dates back to the Mahabharata period when Surath, a distraught devotee of Krishna, agreed to fight with Arjuna. Shri Krishna tried a lot to stop this war, but Shri Krishna also gave up in front of Surath's devotion. After the Mahabharata war, Yudhishthira after performing the Ashwamedha Yagya left the Yagya horse for a ride, then King Hansadhwaj of Champakpuri and his son Surath captured the Ashwamedha horse out of longing to see Shri Krishna. Both father and son were great devotees of Shri Krishna and wanted to renounce the world at his hands. For this reason, after catching the horse, he conveyed the war cry to the ears of the Pandavas, hearing which Arjuna along with his huge army set out for the war. When Shri Krishna saw Arjuna and Suratha face to face on the battlefield, he was distraught. Though it was a way of a god to fulfill the wish of his devotee. Surath became very emotional seeing Shri Krishna with Arjuna. Shri Krishna has also recognized the gesture and devotion of his devotee and started returning after taking Arjuna from the war. Arjuna could not understand what was happening and why Krishna did not want to let him fight with Surath. On the other hand, as soon as Surath saw Shri Krishna returning, he understood that his salvation was not possible at the hands of Shri Krishna, so he followed Arjuna for a long time and far away and challenged Arjuna to fight. Hearing the challenge, Arjun could not stop himself and a fierce battle started. After which Arjun beheaded Surath. While dying, Surath bowed down to Krishna and said that Lord I am fortunate that I am getting death in front of you. Shri Krishna blessed Surath and sat in the battlefield carrying his devotee's head in his lap for a long time, then on being interrupted by Arjuna, he sent his devotee's head back to his palace with respect. Glory to Sanatana Dharma……….
