Educational Q&A
The verse frames the Harivaṁśa as a supplementary Purāṇic continuation that highlights Viṣṇu/Kṛṣṇa’s life and deeds, implying a moral arc: divine power supports dharma, nurtures the righteous (even through playful childhood līlā), and removes oppressive rule (symbolized by Kaṁsa’s death).
The speaker is listing the contents that follow: after the main Mahābhārata divisions, the Harivaṁśa is introduced as an appendix-like Purāṇa, containing the Viṣṇu-parvan, accounts of Kṛṣṇa’s childhood activities, and the episode of Kaṁsa’s slaying.
