Chapter
7:
Krishna Kicks the Cart, Defeats
Trināvarta
and Shows Yas'odā the Universe
(8) All the men and women
of Vraja who, being
invited by Yas'odā and Nanda, had assembled for
the utthāna
ceremony, witnessed that wondrous event and
wondered how the cart out
of
its own could have been damaged so badly.
(28) Grasped
by
the
throat
he
was
powerless.
His
eyes
popped
out
while
he
choked
and
lifeless,
together with the
child,
fell down to the ground in Vraja.
Chapter
8: The
Name Ceremony,
His Pranks and
Again the
Universe Within His Mouth
(11) S'rī S'uka said: 'The man
of learning thus urgently
requested, in secret
seclusion
performed the
name-giving
ceremony for
the two boys for which he had come.
(30) [With
the pots]
hung out of reach, He devises a way by piling up
things or turning over
a mortar, and then finds His way to the contents
by making a hole in
the
hanging pot. Awaiting the time that the gopīs
are busy with
their household affairs, He, with the necessary
light from the
radiating
jewels on His body, manages to find His way in a
dark room!
(40) 'Is
this all a dream, a divine phantasmagoria or
maybe a delusion of my
own intelligence,
or would that what I so see differently be some
yogic
phenomenon natural to my child?
Chapter
9: Mother
Yas'odā
Binds Lord Krishna
(8) Standing on top of a
mortar He had turned
over, He, anxiously looking around, from a
hanging [storage] pot to His pleasure handed
a share of the milk
goodies out to a monkey. From behind watching
these activities,
she very slowly approached her son.
(13-14) He to whom there is
neither an inside nor an
outside, neither a beginning nor an end, is both
the beginning
ąnd the end, both the inside ąnd the outside of
the
universe. He constitutes the complete of the
universe. And He, the One
Unmanifest, the One Unseen present in the form
of a mortal being, was
by the gopī taken
for
her son and bound to a mortar, like one does
with a normal child.
Chapter
10: The
Deliverance of the Sons of Kuvera
(6) Seeing him their
adherents [the girls] were ashamed and, afraid of being
cursed, quickly covered their naked
bodieswith
their garments.
But the two guardians of Kuvera's treasures
[the S'iva guhyakas], who were also naked, did
not.
(28) On the spot from the
two trees two persons appeared, resplendently
beautiful, like fire rising up
and illuminating all directions. They offered Krishna head down with folded hands their
obeisances. Being
freed from passion and ignorance they
said the following to the Lord of the
Entire World:
Chapter
11: A
New Residence, the
Fruitvendor and
Vatsāsura and Bakāsura Defeated
(11) What He had to
offer had slipped from the palms of His hands [on
the way], but the fruit
lady filled them [nevertheless] with fruits.
Thereupon the entire basket of fruits filled
with gold and jewels!
