PLATE TWELVE
In any situation, Krṣṇa is always the infinitely powerful Supreme Personality of Godhead. But just to increase the ecstatic emotion of His intimate, loving devotees like mother Yaśodā and Nanda Mahārāja, Krṣṇa agrees to come under their control. Sometimes Nanda Mahārāja would ask Krṣṇa to bring him his wooden slippers, and Krṣṇa, with great difficulty, would put the slippers on His head and take them to His father. At such times Nanda Mahārāja would exclaim, “My dear Yaśodā, just look at your offspring. Krṣṇa! See His blackish bodily luster, His eyes tinged with red color. His broad chest and His beautiful pearl ornaments. How wonderful He looks, and how He is increasing my transcendental bliss more and more!” ( p.  226)
