The Childhood Pastimes of Krṣṇa
241
boys;  yāsyāmaḥ  —we shall go;  anyatra  —somewhere else;  sa-anugāḥ  —with our followers.
TRANSLATION
All these incidents are being caused by some unknown demon. Before he comes here to create another disturbance, it is our duty to go somewhere else with the boys until there are no more disturbances.
PURPORT
Upānanda suggested, “By the mercy of Lord Viṣṇu, Krṣṇa has always been saved from so many dangerous incidents. Now let us leave this place and go someplace where we may worship Lord Viṣṇu undisturbed, before there is another cause of death from some demon who may attack us.” A devotee desires only that he may execute devotional service undisturbed. Actually we see, however, that even during the presence of Krṣṇa, when Nanda Mahārāja and the other cowherd men had the Supreme Personality of Godhead in their presence, there were disturbances. Of course, in every case, Krṣṇa came out victorious. The instruction we may derive from this is that we should not be disturbed by so-called disturbances. There have been so many disturbances to our Krṣṇa consciousness movement, but we cannot give up our forward march. On the contrary, people are receiving this movement very enthusiastically all over the world, and they are purchasing literature about Krṣṇa consciousness with redoubled energy. Thus there are both encouragements and disturbances. This was so even in Krṣṇa’s time.
