The Consecration (Anointing) of Indra
सर्वदैत्यविनाशार्थे भूभारहरणाय च । वासुदेवाख्यस्ते पुत्रो भविष्यामि न संशयः
sarvadaityavināśārthe bhūbhāraharaṇāya ca | vāsudevākhyaste putro bhaviṣyāmi na saṃśayaḥ
เพื่อทำลายเหล่าไทตยะทั้งปวง และเพื่อปลดภาระแห่งแผ่นดิน เราจักเป็นบุตรของท่าน มีนามว่า “วาสุเทวะ” ไร้ข้อสงสัย
Vishnu (as the future Vāsudeva/Krishna), addressing Vasudeva
Concept: Bhagavān voluntarily incarnates to protect the world and destroy adharma; divine birth is purposeful, not karmically compelled.
Application: When overwhelmed by ‘burdens,’ remember dharma is upheld by higher order; act courageously in your sphere as an instrument of restoration rather than despairing.
