Dasakam 52 Destroying pride of Brahma.

(Lord Brahma wanted to test your power and hid all the calves and Gopa boys with you. Then you , yourself took the forms of each individual calf and the Gopa boy. This continued for one full year. Later Brahma came and begged your pardon.)

अन्यावतारनिकरेष्वनिरीक्षितं ते

ब्रह्मा परीक्षितुमना: स परोक्षभावं
निन्येऽथ वत्सकगणान् प्रवितत्य मायाम् ॥१॥

And observing your great power which was not seen in other incarnations,
Decided to test you and using his power of delusion ,
Caused the entire of herd of calves vanish from there. 52.1

When the group of Gopa boys drowned in sorrow,
At the disappearance of the herd of calves,
You left your half finished meal and as if to obey Brahma’s wish,
Started searching for the calves and then that Brahma hid ,
The Gopa boys also with their half finished meals. 52.2

Later you , yourself became the calves and groups of Gopas,
As well inanimate things like flute , vessel and milk stand,
And happily played as to how you were playing before Brahma came,
And you due to your deception came back in various different forms. 52.3

Dasakam: 052 -- Slokam: 04

Later you who had taken both the forms of calves and Gopas,
And inanimate things like milk stand , vessel and flute,
Was received by the cow mothers and mothers of Gopas,
With great delight ecstasy and happiness. 52.4

जीवं हि कञ्चिदभिमानवशात्स्वकीयं

While before this happened , the Gopis and cows ,
Due to the self centeredness of the soul ,
Were greatly loving them as their children,
But when they got you who is the God himself as their child,
They were drowned in ecstasy and great joy. 52.5

Even your brother Balarama was able to realize this only at the end of the year,
That the cow herd clan was really nurturing and pampering only you,
In your various different forms, indicating the real fact,
That though both of you are incarnations , you both were different. 52.6

When after one year Lord Brahma restored the real Gopas and calves.,
He was terribly perplexed that he could not find any difference,
Whatsoever among the real Gopas and calves and your forms,
And to dispel his confusion by all your forms ,
You appeared before him with four hands and a crown,
With the blue colour of the water rich clouds. 52.7

Lord Brahma saw the differently varying forms of yours,
Some with Goddess Lakshmi gently massaging your feet,
Some with you sleeping on Adhi Sesha, giving great joy,
Some with your eyes shut in the deep yogic sleep,
And some with you being served by sages like Sanaka and Sanath kumara. 52.8

Seeing before him innumerable forms of you as Lord Vishnu,
And in every place seeing himself attending on you,
When drowning in delusion Brahma lost his senses,
You appeared before him in your old form of a child,
With a ball of half eaten food in your hand. 52.9

Oh Lord of Guruvayur , who made Lord Brahma loose his pride,
And made him bow before you again and again in humility,
And made him return back to his abode in Sathyaloka,
And who returned with the happy gopa lads and calves home,
Please be kind enough to cure all my diseases. 52.10
