11 Forward The following work of Mr. Madan Rao is an ambitious project. It represents his unremitting labours particularly when it comes to match the Krishna s life teachings with the needs of existing generation. I fear that it is an act of supererogation on my part to append a long introduction and fairly profuse notes, that s what I felt when I was discussing about Krishna with the Author. Some natural questions came in my mind and when I interacted with Mr. Madan Rao for replies I got very interesting researches. I want to put in front of the readers, which is useful to understand this work. Anshika: Madan, please clear me who are these Yadavas, Kauravas and Pandavas? Why Nagas are very crucial when we see Krishna fought with many far eastern kings almost all are Nagas? Did Nagas held magical stones (like Uloopi saved Arjuna) like miraculous stones? Madan: well, Pandavas and Kauravas including Yadavas are the clans of Yayati, Devyani and Sharmistha. Nagas also diverted at some point from Ila s (Manu s daughter) family tree and they reached far eastern states and settled around Assam, Manipur and Meghalaya. First Nagas settled in Khandava Prastha, the present Delhi and they become resistant for any kind of

12 developments in Khandava Prastha, but Krishna wants to make it as Indraprastha, then Krishna drove them to Assam, Manipur. There he fought with Nagas and the intention behind war is to build a great capital city. We can see one thing in general that wherever peacock stays snakes wil run away from them. Krishna holds peacock s feather on his head this indicates something we need to think about. Great snakes like Takshaka, Kaaliya, Kaghasura they all are serpents. Actually so many books written on Nagas but this angle was not exposed yet. Shiva had sympathy with Nagas and lord Shiva tolerated them but here Krishna is different. Krishna punishes if you are bad, and protect if you are good. Anshika: Fine, I would like to know the roots of these tribes? Madan: yes, from the great floods in that water world, Manu took all Saptha Rishi and few breeds of animals, few samples of grains (Navadhanya) and then fled to Himalayas in search of fertile land with the help of Matsyavatara. First he landed at Manali, and then he established human life on the banks of River Saraswathi. Adityas, Daityas, and Danavas were the powerful tribes living in the banks of monsoon flooded river Saraswathi. At first it was not a snow flooded river but later it was linked to Yamuna and Ganges. Anshika: but river Saraswathi was dried up? Madan: let me brief you. Adityas slowly diverted as powerful Ikshwaku. Daityas stayed in the western bank of Saraswathi as Anus shifted to Iran, when River

13 Saraswathi dried up. They caused to create an Avastin literature and gradually it turned in to Zoroastrianism, which is present Kurdish region of northern Iraq. You can see many similarities in Kurdish and the people of Northern part of India. Anshika: How come these Dannan tribes settled in Greece? Madan: Danavas later migrated from Iran to Armenia and Greece to become the Danaan tribe mentioned in the Greek s Iliad and Odyssey, and they finally reached Ireland as Irishmen. The strong linguistic relationship between the Iranian, the Armenians and the Greek mentioned in Tallageira s work can be explained this way. Anshika: what about Adityas? Madan: The most ancestral tribe mentioned in the region between Yamuna and Saraswathi is the Adityas, and they are immediate after Manu, Hence, this region of Kurukshetra can be identified with the place where the Adityas and the Daityas coexisted for a long time, from where the Daityas and Danavas migrated westwards and the Adityas stayed back, because there was a continues fights in between them. War becomes a part of the struggle to survival. Anshika: what is the link of Manu with Pandavas Yadavas and Kauravas? Madan: Both Manu and Yama (Yima in Avastin) were the sons of Vaivasvat and hence Adityas. Sanskrit texts describe Manu as the patriarch-king, who faced the

14 Great Flood while in the Avastin texts, Yima (Yama) is portrayed as the king who faced the Great Flood. There was a city named after Yama on the banks of Yamuna called Yamaprastha. Manu and his daughter Ila is mentioned as living in this same Kurukshetra region which was also known as Ilaspada named after Manu s daughter Ila. After Ila, the family tree goes on with Purus, Nahusha and Yayati. It s the truffle between Shukracharya and Brihaspati, When Devayani rejected by Kacha, then she married to yayati, also yayati loved Sharmishatha. Yayati got two sons from Devyani Yadu and Turvasu. Yayati got three sons from Sharmistha Druhyu, Anu and Puru. The descendants of Yadu are called Yadavvanshi where Krishna, was bought up. Yayati had conquered the region of Saptha Sindhu. His five sons Yadu, Druhyu, Puru, Anu and Turvashu correspond to the main tribes of the Rigveda of 5000 BC. The descendants of Puru included the famous Kauravas and Pandavas of Mahabharata. Anshika: wow, so nice of you. Anus settled in Iran then what about Turvashu and Druhyu community? Madan: Yes, As Anus settled in Iran, Turvashu migrated to Russian counters and Druhyu tribes migrate through Iran and reached in the eastern parts of Europe. Yadus, Kurus and Panchalas settled in northern part of India. These roots are very crucial when we see the fight between Pandavas and Kauravas. Krishna first attacked Kamsa, Jarasandha, and Shishupal who are very powerful allies of Nagas, belongs to the present Assam and eastern parts of India. Because Krishna knows that these forces will support Kauravas later. He started

15 killing all 22 plus daemons and powerful eastern regional kings to clear the way for Kurukshetra war. Anshika: Thank you Madan. It was so nice gift for us After talking to Mr. Madan Rao I understood the base of the work and I want to forward you all, since it is the crucial theme behind this work. Krishna s childhood is the adventurous part of his life. Before moving to Dwaraka Krishna fought many wars with the help of Balarama. They wants to restore the sweet water lakes, they protected the nature, they taken care of River Yamuna, they established a culture and they ruined the Danavas who stayed back in India along with Adityas. Brij Bhoomi is the key place in destroying Daemons. Madan Rao took nicely the subject of Krishna as an Archaeological research and explained the glory of Krishna in a different way. As I am one of his fans and I am so lucky that, an opportunity to forward the book and I hope you all will enjoy the same way as I enjoyed reading it. - Anshika Mudgul

16 Author s Preface K.R.I.S.H.N.A: A Trio-epic (1) BRIJ BHOOMI - Destroying the Daemons - is my fist part on Lord Krishna, and begins as an element, a research of an archaeological professor. There are thousands of books written on Lord Krishna, this work I took as a directive for youngsters to get a perceptive outlook and to indulge themselves in the fragrance of Krishna. The only one line of Govind Damodara Sthotra inspired to search a new angle in the supreme lord as mentioned below: Vikretu Kama Kilagopa Kanya, Muraari padharpita chithha vruthi, Dadhydhikam moha vishada voched, Govinda damodara madhaveti (Gopiya didn t go to sell the milk and curd on the streets of Mathura; they went to explain the teachings of Krishna, what they learned while sitting with him in Vrindavan. They accepted that as a Chitta Vruthi and they associated with Krishna) They learned to worship the Govardhana, instead of Indra. They learned Maha Yoga by performing Rasa Leela, they did revolt against Kamsa, by going home to home and they preached what Krishna is? -

17 It was an experiment done by Krishna when he was at the age of Seven years. Lately we are talking of women rights, and womenaisation in social developments, now in the year of Somehow we lost the real sense of women s role in social development. But Krishna did an enormous job in 3222 B.C. If you see the Russian Revolution, it was tried by Lenin in 18 th century when he took the major support of Russian Women against the war on Tsarist oppression. In the great leadership of Ms. Krooks Kayer,.many of the women that had gone on strike or had sympathized with the arrested "Muscovites" joined the terrorist group called "Narodnaya Volya". This group fought with an extreme spirit of self-sacrifice, although with highly questionable methods later strongly criticised by Lenin himself, in defence of the workers' cause against Tsarist oppression. Eventually after revolution the Russian women were sub standardized somehow, is the sad part of Lenin. The struggle for the "right to vote" divided women along class lines. There were the various feminist associations that saw the need to unite all women in the struggle for women's rights - over and above class divisions. They hypocritically saw the struggle as merely a means of obtaining the vote for women of property. There is no doubt that Lenin did a wonderful job in that revolution, but subsequently Russian women reduced with the right of vote and a right to smoke. For the cause to achieve the revolution, on the way to defeat Tsars, the life of Russian women becomes critical in their families and in society while revolution.

18 If you see the great French revolution in this angle you will find a series of bad harvests, and the country s debt from their support of the American Revolution and bankrolling Marie Antoinette s expensive tastes, bread prices were skyrocketing in the summer and fall of The Wages were so low that poor, working class women were having trouble to feeding their families. The situation becomes worse after the revolution. Some began to participate in riots, such as the Reveillon Riot in Paris against low wages. So, economical security of women is also important when you talk about a revolution. After American internal revolution, there was a saying and they used to say: We ve no Voice, but a negative here, The use of the Taxable let us forbear. Then Merchants import, till yr. Traffics be dull, Stand firmly resolved bid Grenville to see, That rather than Freedom, we ll part with our Tea. Many African American women seized upon wartime activity to declare their own independence, running away from their masters, fleeing either to the British army, to Canada, or to American cities where they could blend in with the free black population. They were clearly taken by the language of liberty and equality that white patriots used in their fight against the British, using that language for their own purposes. Phillis Wheatley, an African American slave from Massachusetts, published poems that explicitly used white Americans demands for their own liberty to challenge the institution of slavery.-

19 Krishna succeeded with his experiment in 3222B.C, almost 8,000 years before he was succeeded in that and he fought Kamsa and Twenty Four plus demons. Krishna lifted Govardhana and established the importance of culture instead of money power. Krishna took the help of Gopiya but the standards of women he kept sacred. Krishna didn t disturbed their family life, Krishna explained them the culture. Krishna made them to feed butter and milk to their children and made them health conscious. Krishna steals their dresses, while they are disrespecting their own bodies. Krishna took them along with him, if it s the matter of security Krishna married Raaniya, after releasing from Narakasura s prison and gave them social security and social status both. My aim is to go along with story but it s not that i want to tell you the story; it was told many times by many great people. This Trio-Epic of Krishna is revolving around the characters of Mahabharata; still the central force is Krishna. One word for the book is - It s all about the greatness of Krishna, Vasudeva sutham devam, Kansa Chanoora mardhanam Devakiparamanandam, Krishnam Vandey Jagatgurum Madan Rao

20 SURYAKALA They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason, Will change the way I feel. Wanne tell you something, So, there won t be any doubts, You are so wonderful to think, But, you are so hard to be without. Miss you so much, And we are unlucky forever Since you left so far and very far... - Anshi - Nonu - Gopa - Padma - Raj - Sami - Madan

21 If I am to be a man, then let me, Live as a cowherd in the village of Gokul. If I am to be an animal, then let me Live always, gazing among, the cows of Nanda. If I am to be a rock, then let me Be one upon the very hill that Krishna used as an umbrella against Indra s storm. If I am to be a bird, then let me Live In the branches of a kadamba tree On the banks, of the river Yamuna... - Rasa khan (16th Century)
