“Hearing such entreaties of Cupid, Lord Brahmâ melted with compassion, and said: ‘In the reign of King Vaivasvata, Râma the destroyer of many Râkṣasas and my compeer in power and prowess, will be born in the family of King Yadu. When Râma, the valiant prince, will fix Dwârikâ as His headquarters, You will be born as a son of His brother, the God Kṛiṣṇa.’”—17-18.
