Last night's episode, seemed to reveal why Krishna couldn't bring others back to life. Previously, one might have questioned the notion of everyone's destiny being written in advance, but in this episode, we found out why he can't.
When Yamaraj appeared b4 Krishna, Krishna ultimately told him that he'd reduce 40 years of his own life in his kundali and give it to Kritavarma's son, so as not to upset the balance of nature. Yamaraj praised him, and left.
Later, Devaki asked him to bring her 6 dead babies back to life. For a change, when Balarama asked Krishna about it, he was forthcoming. Also, when Krishna explained his dilemma to Balarama, the latter was sympathetic - he didn't mindlessly demand that Krishna do what he was told. In tonight's episode, Krishna appears b4 Brahma to discuss his dilemma.
But back to the above - if Krishna had to take 40 years off his own life to give to Kritavarma's son, then he'd have do take x number of years off his own destiny anytime he wants to revive somebody. In this case, Devaki presumably got her babies back for a day, so one would imagine that Krishna would have deducted another 6 days off the balance of his life. But imagine if this kept happening - if everytime any woman lost her son, she'd approach him, and he'd have to keep deducting. At some point, since he had a finite #years in his kundali, he'd be having zero balance and going negative. And if he keeps doing it, then finally, he'll be at that point in time where he no longer exists 😲, and finally goes into negative territory.
In other words, to support any such endless demands, Krishna would have to in the end exist for minus n (-n) years. In other words, not only would he then never have existed, but there would have to be something to support his going into negative terretory. Maybe a Krishna composed of anti-matter or negative mass existing in Gokul, Vrindavan, Mathura and Dwarka for those number of years.
So the law that would be violated if Krishna got people back to life would be elementary laws of arithmetic, not astrology. 😆 Now this, I can perfectly understand 😆 - even the gods, no matter how supreme or powerful, can't make actual physical entities exist for a negative amount of time 🤣
