KRISHNA SAVES THE MISSING BABIES

 STORY OF A VAIDIKA BRAHMIN

 Once a vaidika brAhmin came to KrishNa and sought protection for his child who was to be born. All the earlier babies had simply vanished as soon as they were born, even before the mother could see them. Arjuna intervened and offered to protect them by raising a scaffolding where even air could not enter. Nevertheless, the baby went missing.  The furious brAhmin complained to KrishNa.  KrishNa along with Arjuna and the brAhmin rode in their chariot to the resplendent paramapadam. MahAlakshmi (tAyAr) had secretly whisked away the babies in order to see perumAL in His avatAra lakshaNam. KrishNa retrieved the four babies and handed them back to the delighted brAhmin.
