Dashaka 83 स खलु द्विविदो रक्षोघाते कृतोपकृतिः पुरा तव तु कलया मृत्युं प्राप्तुं तदा खलतां गतः। नरकसचिवो देशक्लेशं सृजन्नगरान्ति के झटिति हलिना युध्यन्नद्धा पपात तलाहतः।।9।। ENGLISH TRANSLATION Long ago Vividha, the monkey who had helped Thee in killing the Raakshasas (during Thy incarnation as Raama) nursed the desire to be killed by Thy part incarnation. As a minister of Narakaasura, he took to evil ways and started creating sufferings for the people in the vicinity of Dwaarika. In a fight with Balaraama, he was killed with ease by a blow of Balaraam's hand in no time. साम्बं कौरव्यपुत्रीहरणनियमितं सान्त्वनार्थी कुरूणां यातस्तद्वाक्यरोषोद्धृतकरिनगरो मोचयामास रामः। ते घात्याः पाण्डवेयैरिति यदुपृतनां नामुचस्त्वं तदानीं तं त्वां दुर्बोधलीलं पवनपुरपते तापशान्त्यै निषेवे।।10।। ENGLISH TRANSLATION Saamba was a captive of the Kurus because he had abducted their daughter. Balaraam went to the Kurus to pacify them but was enraged by their talks and lifted up Hastinaapur and released Saamba. Thou did not send the Yaadava army to confront them, because Thou wanted that the Kurus be killed by the Paandavas. Thou whose sporting ways are unfathomable, O Lord of Guruvaayur! I worship Thee so as to remove my sufferings.
