Tarakasura gets a boon from Lord Brahma, plagues the devas

Lord Shiva in deep meditation, disturbed by Kamadeva

Kamadeva burnt to ashes

Kartikeya born to Lord Shiva and Parvati

Page 3: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Kamadeva resided in the heavenly planets

In charge of inducing lusty desires

When burnt he merged in the body of Vasudeva

His wife Rati was consoled

He got back his body upon being begotten by Lord Krishna

Page 4: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Pradyumna born to Krishna and Rukmini.

Kamadeva reborn as Pradyumna

Begotten by Krishna directly

Exactly resembled Lord Krishna

Page 5: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Krishna’s son Pradyumna is jiva tattva

Krishna’s expansion Pradyumna is Visnu tattva

Page 6: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Sambarasura is destined to be killed by Pradyumna and he knows it

Kidnaps Pradyumna from the maternity home

Uses his mystic powers and rises into the sky

Page 7: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Sambara threw the baby into the sea

A big fish swallowed Pradyumna

This fish was later caught and sold to Sambara

Sambara gave it to his cook

In his kitchen there was a maid named Mayavati

Mayavati was Rati , Kamadeva’s wife, reborn

Page 8: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

The cook cut open the fish - Pradyumna was revealed

He handed over the baby to Mayavati

She was astonished to see the baby alive

Narada Muni appeared and told the whole story

Mayavati took charge of the baby

Page 9: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Pradyumna miraculously grew into a very beautiful young man.

Mayavati knew this was her former husband

She now desired to unite with him

Pradyumna asked “Why this sudden change?”

Mayavati reveals the past

Tells him that he is the son of Rukmini

Requests him to kill Sambara demon

Page 10: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Mayavati gives Pradyumna mahamaya power

This power supercedes supernatural power maya

Page 11: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Pradyumna challenged Sambara with strong words

Sambara felt insulted like a snake that is kicked

Serious fighting ensued

Page 12: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Sambara had learnt mysticpowers from Mayasura

He threw nuclear weapons from the sky on Pradyumna

Pradyumna used mahavidya whichis based on goodness

He defeated Sambara and cut off his head.

Pradyumna and Mayavati arrive in Dwaraka

They arrive by airways

Descend into inner chambers

Pradyumna mistaken for Krishna

“Who is this boy? Who is thisyoung woman with him?”

Rukmini remembers her lost son

Page 15: Krishna Leela Series - Part 50 - Pradyumna Born to Krishna and Rukmini

Lord Krishna arrived with Vasudev and Devaki

The Lord remained silent

Narada discloses the past

Everyone embraces couple

“The dead son has returned! What could be

more pleasing?”

REVERENTIAL DEVOTIONAL SERVICE

Leader of all sons of Krishna

He never talked to his fatherin a loud voice, nor showed

his tearful face, always gazedat the lotus feet of Krishna

Immediately executed any order of Krishna
