PRAHLADA

"Brahma granted the boon.

"Children, you have now heard about the power of the King of Rakshasas. How strong is he! What god can oppose him? The three worlds belong to him. Now why should you turn away from him? Why follow any other religion and seek another god?"

Then Prahlada smilingly said, " Why ‘masters, a king may secure boons from Brahma. But does that mean he can do what is evil, and that he will not be punished ? All must bow to the will of Mahavishnu who is the master of Brahma. His kindness flows in innumerable ways to protect the world." At 'the wise -words of young Prahlada, the other boys nodded their heads in agreement and admiration.
