Kripa Cripa : adopted son of Shāntanu (see Bhīṣma). Powerful warrior & minister of Hastināpūra, too desired just reconciliation with Yudhishthira yet, bound to the throne, obeyed Duryodhana’s orders to the extent of joining in cornering of Abhimanyu, & the midnight murder of the sleeping sons of the Pandavas.
... of it is beyond expression. On 13.7.1984, was the pure, sacred, blissful and extremely auspicious Guru Purnima (full moon) day. In Bharuch, Kamalaben's brother's bungalow which had been named 'Kripa' (Grace) by the Mother. In this place, Grace descended also on Champaklal. ...
... for intenser care as well as for greater understanding of the ailing who come to the emergency department. Most probably your new job reveals a field for which your new name - "Kripa" - has acted like an "Open Sesame". "Kripa" in place of the old "Catherine" is what has come through me from the Mother's overflowing love and compassion not only to kindle in you her true child but also to act through ...
... their universal mission, have there not been some sons of man who have conquered death for all time ? Thus Utnapishtim of the Babylonian legends and Ashwa-thama, Vali, Vyasa, Hanuman, Vibhishana, Kripa and Parashu- 1 Vide D. Mérejkovsky, op. cit., chapter entitled "Gilgamesh et l'arbre de vie." 2 Mérejkovsky, op. cit., section II: Babylone. Page 328 ...
... experience and expression flow mellifluously through the revelatory utterance of another mantric lyricism. As the Upanishad would say, ascetic effort ( tapah-prabhava ) and benedictive grace ( guru-kripa ) have given him this siddhi. We are fortunate to receive it through him. Jnaneshwar raises the Guru to the height of the Supreme, not just because of a certain tradition but because of a definite ...
... equally intelligible line. Throughout the Mahabharata we perceive that the great weakness of the Kurus lay in the division of their counsels. There was a peace party among them led by Bhishma, Drona, Kripa & Vidura, the wise & experienced statesmen who desired justice and reconciliation with Yudhisthere and a war-party of the hot-blooded younger men led by Karna, Duhsasana & Duryodhana himself who were... that men of such lofty character as Bhishma and Drona should have acted against their sense of right and justice and fought in what they had repeatedly condemned as an unjust cause.

I have long felt I have got gurur kripa though till now I have seldom felt I have got Krishna's kripa. But I thought Guru's kripa will lead to Krishna as Guru and Krishna are really one and Krishna comes as the Guru to facilitate the introduction to himself... what is being done as he is absorbed in himself and his endeavour. In such cases the decisive psychological movement, the touch that makes all clear, may take longer to come.
