  • Destruction of Narakasura - Narakasura was a cruel Asura who is originally the son of Goddess Bhooma Devi (Mother Earth). He got a boon stating that he can be killed only by his mother.

  • Story of Nriga - The princes of Dwaraka were playing in the garden. They found a giant lizard and tried to pull it. But in vain they reported to Lord Krishna. He came and pulled it with ease. Once he touched the lizard, it changed to Gandharva. The Gandharva is none other than King Nriga of Ikshwaku race. He was doing cows and calves as Dhanam to Brahmins. Once there was a issue brought to his court. It was about the Dhanam of cows which he gave. By mistakenly the cow which is already given as a Dhanam to a Brahimin oneday before was again given as a Dhanam to another Brahman on a next day. Both the Brahmins were telling truth. The mistake was done unknowingly. The king died on the spot. At heaven, Lord Yamaraj asked the king whether he would live as a lizard first as a result of doing mistake in the kingdom or first be in heaven as a result of doing Dhanams. The king made his first choice of being born as a lizard and then to heaven for enjoying. Thus told the story to Krishna Balarama and Yadavas, went to heaven. It was Krishna's Grace which made him to go to heaven.
