salvation and is only struggling in debates

bAgAye nayya-chandra jyOti -dESAdi
In this kruti Tyagaraja wonders at Lord Krishna's incomprehensible acts like
asking reluctant Arjuna to defeat kauravas and at the same assuring him that
neither of them will be effected by the sin of war and violence.

Oh Lord,your deluding acts are
indeed great.It is not possible even for Brahma to
laud you.

and at the same time deny your involvement in it. |

Once when Arjuna lamented that destroying
kauravas was sin,you encouraged him to
wage the war.You also declared that
neither of you would be inflicted by sin
in a war for the protection of Dharma.
Oh Lord of Tyagaraja,did you not
manage the crisis well?
