Madhurageetham: Sri Krishna Leela – 13
Kubera’s sons’ Prayer!
The 10th canto in Srimad Bhagavatam is known as “Ashrayam” or “refuge” for Lord Krishna’s devotees for it talks about the Lord’s incarnation and his sweet lilas on this Earth. Sri Swamiji has written beautiful kirtans on these various lilas of Lord Krishna. So, in this series, we will relish those lilas of Lord Krishna through Sri Swamiji’s kirtans.
To fulfill his devotee, Sage Narada’s words, the ever compassionate Lord, delivered the sons of Kubera and they put forth a beautiful prayer before they went back to their abode. Sri Swamiji too has composed numerous songs in a similar bhava.
