Strange happenings in Kali age

Strange  happenings in Kali age

Translated by

P.R.Ramachander

After  the Mahabharatha   war, just  outside  ,

Their capital,  horses   were auctioned .

Towards  the end a  black man   came ,

With a pretty horse  and every one  wanted it.

At that  time Sahadeva  the last of pandavas,

Came there  and when he   asked   for the horse ,

The black man said, “please   answer  my question,

And would    give    the   horse  free to you.

SAhadeva said,  “ okay”    and the black man asked,

There  was a big well  of water  and all  the water,

In it   was completely filled into seven small wells,

But when all the water  of seven wells  tried,

To fill up the big  well,  it was  almost empty”

Sahadeva  could not answer and then Nakula  came,

And the black  man asked, “ one elephant  entered through,

The nozzle  of needle  .Though it could  its tail,

Did  not pass   through    that  nozzle, Why?”

Sahadeva   could not answer  and when Arjuna   came,

The black man asked, “one  crop was completely   fenced,

And  though the  fence   was very much   there,

Not a  single  plant   was  seen inside  in the field”

After some time Bhima  and  took back   all ,

The three   brothers back and they told,

Dharmaputhra   about    the happenings  ,

As well    as the difficult   questions   asked:

Dharma  Puthra   was shocked  and  told,   that black man,

Is the deplorable  Kali age and  his questions ,

Indicate about  what  is going  to happen,

And we better  die   and go to heaven.”

“In Kali age  parents   would feed    their children,

But   the children    would not   able  to help  them back,

And this  is indicated by his first question, and the big well,

Is the parent   and seven small wells are   their children.

“ The elephant’s body   entering   through   the nozzle,

Indicates the great  evil  would    easily  happen

and tail  not entering, indicated that  good  will be difficult  to happen

And  the fenced    crop disappearing   , with fence intact

Would indicate that the  government  servants   who are  the fence,

Would eat   away   all the crops   and crop will not be there ,

And pandavas   started   their journey towards heaven to avoid Kali
