Sukadeva Gosvami said: Having observed many disturbing signs in the sky, on the earth and in outer space, Lord Krishna addressed the Yadus assembled in the Sudharma council hall as follows.
PURPORT
According to Srila Sridhara Svami, the inauspicious sign in the sky was the appearance of a halo around the sun, on the earth there were small earthquakes, and in outer space there was an unnatural redness on the horizon. These and other, similar omens were impossible to counteract, because they were personally arranged by Lord Krishna.
