He was born in a poor Brahmin family, to Matuka and Rochana Devi. Krishna, on the other hand, came from the royal family and hence, enjoyed the highest possible social status. However, this difference did not in any way hinder their friendship - the two were inseparable all the way through the tenure of their schooling while in Vrindavan. They studied together at Acharya Sandipan's ashram (hermitage). After finishing with their studies, they lost touch for several years. Krishna moved away from Vrindavan and went on to Dwaraka, where he got married. He then became the King and a military leader of great reputation. Sudama, on the other hand, remained as poor as always and stayed on in the same village. He did not have much money to spare for his wife and children. There were many times when the family did not even get two meals a day. The children often cried out due to hunger and drank a lot of water to try and satisfy themselves. But despite this situation, Sudama would always offer half portion of his meal to God and live on the little that was left on his plate. Finally, unable to take the hunger of her children anymore, Susheela ordered him to leave for Dwarka and request help from Krishna. He eventually agreed to visit his long-lost royal friend at Dwaraka. Sudama’s love and devotion to the Lord was so immense, that if God ever had to repay him the price of each grain of rice, there will nothing left in the universe for anyone else and all the riches of the world will end up with Sudama. Krishna began eating the rice. Krishna took his first bite and with the first bite he gave away SwargaLok (Heaven - First of the three Lokas) to Sudama. Then Krishna took his second bite and with this one he donated the PrithviLok (Earth – Second of the three Lokas) to Sudama. When he was about the take the third bite, his wife Rukmini came and stopped him indicating that she wouldn’t let him donate their home – the Vaikuntha Dhaam (Abode of Vishnu and Third Loka) to Sudama. If that happened, there would not be any difference between Sudama and the Lord, as Sudama would become the King of Three Lokas. Krishna tried to justify his actions saying that, the poor Sudama’s only possession in life was his small portion of meal for a day and he would still donate half of that to God. When Sudama could donate half his possessions to God, God would do the same for him. But Rukmini was adamant about not letting him have the third bite. She took away the left portion of the rice and shared it amongst the wives of Krishna, thus saving her Vaikuntha Dhaam. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- **Please Like, Share and Subscribe our videos.** Press the bell button to stay notified about our new videos! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Disclaimer: 1.
