King Kirtiman under guidance of Vashista organised a Kingdom-wide campaign of propagating
Dharma in the Vaishakha Month and spreading the awareness of the „do‟s and don‟ts‟ as also strictly
enforcing
- early mornig bathings,
- performances of daanas,
- Pujas‟by individual families and a general
uplift of Dharma.
This resulted in a very thin outgo of deaths from his Kingdom in the months of Vaishaka
and Lord Yamaraja made an appeal to Brahma that the traffic of deaths and births registered in the
Kingdom of Kirtiman was highly disturbed, that there was little difference of „Swarga‟ and „Naraka‟ and
even those few deaths in the Kingdom made a bee-line to Vaikuntha! Amused by the complaint of
Yamaraja,
Brahma accompanied by Yamaraja approached the Ksheera Sagar‟ (Ocean of Milk) and
Vishnu replied smilingly that He would rather leave away His
- Srivatsa,
- Kaustubh jewel,
- Vijayanti Mala,
- Sweta Dwip,
- Vaikuntha,
- Ksheera Sagar,
- Sesha Nag,
- Garud or
- even Devi Lakshmi,
but would never
abandon His Bhakta Raja Kirtiman.
