    Pūtanā Mokṣa - Liberation of the Ogress Pūtanā

    We have a special guest today, Dr. Sahitya Chaturvedi, CA based in the UAE, Sanskrit Language and Braj Traditions Expert.  Join us as we explore the Pūtanā Mokṣa episode from the Bhagavāta Purāṇa. Dr. Sahitya ji shares the inner meaning of this līlā from the context of the writings of Vallabhācārya ji, Vaiṣṇava Ācārya of the 15th century who propounded the Śuddhādvaita philosophy. Pūtanā is the first demon to threaten Krishna's life.  She is a huge ogress and her role is that of child-killer sent by the evil Kaṃsa. Pūtanā assumes the form of a sweet and charming lady, she dabs her breasts with poison and while Nanda is still at Mathura, she comes to his house.   In the Bhagavāta Purāṇa Canto 10, Chapter 6, Verses 5 & 6 it states:  Pūtanā's earrings were brilliant, and as she smiled very attractively, glancing upon everyone, her beauty drew the attention of all the inhabitants of Braja.  When the Gopīs saw Pūtanā, they thought that the beautiful goddess of fortune, Shri Lakṣmī holding a lotus flower in her hand, had come to see her husband, Kṛṣṇa.

    Two fold Theme

    The Purāṇa at this point concentrates on two main themes: one - on Kṛṣṇa's infancy in Gokula, celebrating his baby pranks, his capacity for mischief, the love he arouses in the hearts of his foster-mother, Yaśodhā, and of all the Gopis and, the second theme, about his supernatural powers and his skill in destroying troublesome demons.

    Mother Earth's plea

    Kaṁsa throws his father into prison, assumes his powers and bans the worship of the lord. As his crimes increase, he extends his conquests. At last Earth can bear the burden no longer and appeals to the gods to approach the Lord, to rid her of the load.  In the Bhāgavata Purāṇa Canto 10, Chapter 1, Verse 18 it states: "Mother earth assumed the form of a cow. Very much distressed, with tears in her eyes, she appeared before Lord Brahmā and told him about her misfortune."
