Aadi
Kuntee Prayer to Krishn - Bhaagvat Puraan,
Muchukund Stuti to Krishn - Bhaagvat Puraan, 10/u1;
This prayer is by King Muchukund. It occurs in the 10th Skandh of Bhaagvat
Puraan in the 51st Chapter (Shlok 46-58). Muchukund was a king of the solar
dynasty being the son of the king Maandhaataa. He was extremely valorous
and helped the Devtaa in the war against Asur. Once he even waged a war against
Lord Kuber and when offered all his wealth he thankfully refused it. When
Kaarttikeya was made the commander of the Devtaa army, the Devtaa requested
Muchukund to take the well earned rest and made him enter in to sleep in a
cave. They also gave him a boon that whosoever wakes him up would turn in to
ashes. Kaalayavana (deathly Greek) a friend of Jaraasandh attacked Lord Krishn.
Krishn pretended to retreat and led Kaalayavan into the cave where the king
Muchukund was sleeping. Kaalayavan woke him up and was turned in to ash. King
Muchukund recognized the Lord and prayed him and was granted salvation.
