Balarāma Slays Balvala and Visits Sacred Tīrthas; He Attempts to Stop Bhīma–Duryodhana
योऽनुस्मरेत रामस्य कर्माण्यद्भुतकर्मण: । सायं प्रातरनन्तस्य विष्णो: स दयितो भवेत् ॥ ३४ ॥
yo ’nusmareta rāmasya karmāṇy adbhuta-karmaṇaḥ sāyaṁ prātar anantasya viṣṇoḥ sa dayito bhavet
All the deeds of the unlimited Lord Balarāma are wondrous. Whoever regularly remembers them at dawn and at dusk becomes very dear to Śrī Viṣṇu, the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
Śrīla Prabhupāda writes: “Lord Balarāma is the original Viṣṇu; therefore anyone remembering these pastimes of Lord Balarāma in the morning and evening will certainly become a great devotee of the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and thus his life will become successful in all respects.”
