HOW KRISHNA LEFT EARTH:BHALKA TEERTH

It was the end of Mahabharata war. The loss of all her sons filled Gandhari, mother of Kauravas, with grief and anger.
She chided Krishna n cursed him, “36 years from today, you will die. Dwaraka will be flooded. Yadava clan will end”

Time passed. Once, Rishi Durvasa visited Krishna and as per his wish, Krishna applied Payasam (rice kheer) on his body. As his legs were resting on the ground, he could not apply it to his feet. Durvasa said, “You have not applied Payasam to my foot. Your death is in your foot.”

36 years later, Krishna lay down under a tree and went into Yoga Samadhi. A hunter Jara while hunting, misunderstood the moving foot of Krishna as a hidden deer and shot a lethal arrow that pierced into Krishna’s feet.

Krishna told the grieving Jara that in his previous birth, Jara was Bali (brother of Sugreev). Rama had killed Bali from behind and in this birth, the same fate was met by Prabhu himself.
This is how Prabhu showed that the law of karma remains the same for all.

Bhalka Tirtha Veraval (भालका तीर्थ) which is about 4 kilometers from the Somnath Mandir is believed to be the place where Krishna gave up his mortal body and ascended to Baikunth. The name Bhalka is said to be derived from the word Bhal which means arrow.
