SUMMARY: (1) Owing to the love and affection towards his mother Kaikeyi, Srirama, along with pure-hearted wife Seetha and Lakshmana, who was an ardent devotee and like a flagpost for victory against the enemies, he (Srirama) swiftly travelled without an iota of agony or sorrow, towards the forest, for fulfilling the desires of the virtuous.

SUMMARY: (2) To make his mother Aditi happy, Sri Krishna, along with his beloved wife Satyabhama and the symbol on the flag of his chariot Garuda, happily and swiftly travelled towards Badarikashram to fulfill the desires of the virtuous.

The hidden message, as far as Sri Ramavatar is concerned, in this stanza is that Srirama had all affection for Kaikeyi. He was not upset for her becoming instrumental for his exile to forest. In fact, it was preplanned. If Srirama would not have gone to forest, the demons in various forests could not have been destroyed to pave the way for the Rishis, saints and Munis in those forests to continue their penance and spiritual activities. The lone goal of the incarnation of Sri Vishnu as Srirama was the destruction of Ravana and Kumbhakarna and the exile of Srirama to forest was inevitable for him to carry out the mission as per the desires of deities, including Indra, Rudra, Varuna, Agni and others.

Sri Krishna went to Badarikashram to kill Narakasura.

In the case of Ramavatara, “sa jagAma vanam” should be retained as it is; with reference to Krishnavatara, it should be read as “Sa KrishNaha satAmavanam vidaDhat”. “Matrujanam” refers to Kaikeyin in Ramavatar and Aditi in Krishnavatara. While “MahAjaDhwajalakshmaNAgrya suhruda” is retained for Ramavatara, it is slightly altered as “MahAjayaDhwajEna LakhmaNAKhyEna agrya suhrudA| amudA vina and “mahAvijayEna DhwajachihnEna GaruDEna cha” for Krishnavatara.

Sri Krishna was requested by the Rishis living around Badarikashrama to relieve them from the terrorism of Narakasura and his associates. The act was also aimed at making Aditi happy.
