6Purport: The association of a bona fide spiritual master like the sage
Maitreya can be of absolute help in achieving transcendental attachment for the direct service of the Lord.
The Lord is the enemy of the Madhu demon, or in other words He is the enemy of the suffering of His pure devotee. The word
rati-rāsaḥ is significant in this verse. Slide7
7Service to the Lord is rendered in different transcendental mellows (relationships): neutral, active, friendly, parental and conjugal.
A living entity in the liberated position of transcendental service to the Lord becomes attracted to one of the above-mentioned mellows,and when one is engaged in transcendental loving service to the Lord, one’s service attachment in the material world is automatically
vanquished.As stated in Bhagavad-gītā (2.59), rasa-varjaṁ raso ’py
asya paraṁ dṛṣṭvā nivartate.Slide8

[The cowherd men and women addressed the Lord:]
Kṛṣṇa
,
Kṛṣṇa
, O most fortunate one, please deliver the cows from the wrath of
Indra
! O Lord, You are so affectionate to Your devotees. Please save us also.
Purport: At the time of Lord Kṛṣṇa’s birth, Garga Muni had predicted, anena sarva-durgāṇi yūyam añjas

(
Bhāg
.
10.8.16): “By His grace you will easily cross beyond all difficulties.” The residents of
Vṛndāvana
were confident that in such a great emergency Lord
Śrī
Nārāyaṇa
would empower
Kṛṣṇa
to protect them. They accepted
Kṛṣṇa
as everything, and
Kṛṣṇa
reciprocated their love.Slide11
11SB 10.25.15 — [Śrī
Kṛṣṇa said to Himself:] Because We have stopped his sacrifice, Indra has caused this unusually fierce, unseasonable rain, together with terrible winds and hail.
SB 10.25.16
— By My mystic power I will completely counteract this disturbance caused by Indra. Demigods like Indra are proud of their opulence, and out of foolishness they falsely consider themselves the Lord of the universe. I will now destroy such ignorance.Slide12
12SB 10.25.19 Having said this, Lord Kṛṣṇa, who is
Viṣṇu Himself, picked up Govardhana Hill with one hand and held it aloft just as easily as a child holds up a mushroom.Slide13

Purport:
It is confirmed in the
Hari-
vaṁśa
that
Śrī
Kṛṣṇa picked up the Govardhana Mountain with His left hand: sa dhṛtaḥ

.
“With His left hand He picked up that mountain, which was touching the clouds.” According to
Śrīla
Viśvanātha
Cakravartī
Ṭhākura
, when Lord
Kṛṣṇa
was preparing to lift
Govardhana
Hill, a partial expansion of His Yoga-
māyā
potency named
Saṁhārikī
temporarily removed all the rain from the sky so that as He ran very swiftly from the porch of His house to the mountain, neither His turban nor other garments became wet.Slide14
