apūrvatvena tasyaiva

mahimā keli-bhūr api


TRANSLATION
Those unprecedented attractive features of Kṛṣṇa leave one struck with amazement. So also do His pastimes, His qualities, His pure love, His glorious virtues, and the places where He sports.

Bṛhad-bhāgavatāmṛta Part 1 Chapter 6 Text 50


śrī-rukmiṇy uvāca
bho mātar nava-nītāti-
mṛdu-svāntasya tasya hi
avijñāyāntaraṁ kiñcit
katham evaṁ tvayocyate
yūyaṁ śṛṇuta vṛttāni
tarhi tarhi śrutāni me


TRANSLATION
Śrī Rukmiṇī said: My dear mother, you don’t understand the inner feelings of Kṛṣṇa at all. His heart is softer than newly churned butter. Why are you saying these things? Just hear from me what I have heard.

Bṛhad-bhāgavatāmṛta Part 1 Chapter 6 Texts 36-38


mama pratyakṣam evedaṁ
yadā kṛṣṇo vraje ’vrajat
tato hi pūtanādibhyaḥ
keśy-antebhyo muhur muhuḥ

daityebhyo varuṇendrādi-
devebhyo ’jagarāditaḥ
tathā cirantana-svīya-
śakaṭārjuna-bhaṅgataḥ

ko vā nopadravas tatra
jāto vraja-vināśakaḥ
tatratyās tu janāḥ kiñcit
te ’nusandadhate na tat


TRANSLATION
My own experience is this: When Kṛṣṇa lived in Vraja, so many calamities threatened to destroy it. Vraja was disturbed by demons, from Pūtanā to Keśī, by demigods like Varuṇa and Indra, by creatures like the python, and by the falling of familiar things at Kṛṣṇa’s house like the cart and the arjuna trees. But to these dangers the residents paid no regard.
