राजन् परस्य तनुभृज्जननाप्ययेहा माया विडम्बनमवेहि यथा नटस्य । सृष्ट्वाऽऽत्मनेदमनुविश्य विहृत्य चान्ते संहृत्य चात्ममहिमोपरतः स आस्ते ।। ११-३१-११ ।।

sanskrit

My dear King, you should understand that the Supreme Lord’s appearance and disappearance, which resemble those of embodied conditioned souls, are actually a show enacted by His illusory energy, just like the performance of an actor. After creating this universe He enters into it, plays within it for some time, and at last winds it up. Then the Lord remains situated in His own transcendental glory, having ceased from the functions of cosmic manifestation. ।। 11-31-11 ।।

मर्त्येन यो गुरुसुतं यमलोकनीतं त्वां चानयच्छरणदः परमास्त्रदग्धम् । जिग्येऽन्तकान्तकमपीशमसावनीशः किं स्वावने स्वरनयन्मृगयुं सदेहम् ।। ११-३१-१२ ।।

sanskrit

Lord Kṛṣṇa brought the son of His guru back from the planet of the lord of death in the boy’s selfsame body, and as the ultimate giver of protection He saved you also when you were burned by the brahmāstra of Aśvatthāmā. He conquered in battle even Lord Śiva, who deals death to the agents of death, and He sent the hunter Jarā directly to Vaikuṇṭha in his human body. How could such a personality be unable to protect His own Self? ।। 11-31-12 ।।

sanskrit

Although Lord Kṛṣṇa, being the possessor of infinite powers, is the only cause of the creation, maintenance and destruction of innumerable living beings, He simply did not desire to keep His body in this world any longer. Thus He revealed the destination of those fixed in the self and demonstrated that this mortal world is of no intrinsic value. ।। 11-31-13 ।।

Anyone who regularly rises early in the morning and carefully chants with devotion the glories of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s transcendental disappearance and His return to His own abode will certainly achieve that same supreme destination. ।। 11-31-14 ।।

As soon as Dāruka reached Dvārakā, he threw himself at the feet of Vasudeva and Ugrasena and drenched their feet with his tears, lamenting the loss of Lord Kṛṣṇa. ।। 11-31-15 ।।
