30 Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead

Godhead, Krsna, enter the palace, they immediately became captivated by
the beauty of the Lord and prayed for His causeless mercy. Within their
minds, they decided to accept Lord Krsna as their husband without any
hesitation. Each one of them began to pray to providence that Krsna might
become her husband. Sincerely and seriously, they offered their hearts to
the lotus feet of Krsna with an unalloyed devotional attitude. As the
Supersoul in everyone’s heart, Krsna could understand their uncontami-
nated desire, and He agreed to accept them as His wives. Thus, He arranged
for suitable dresses and ornaments for them, and each of them, seated on
a palanquin, was dispatched to Dvaraka City. Krsna also collected unlimited
wealth from the palace, along with chariots, horses, jewels and treasure.
He took from the palace fifty white elephants, each with four tusks, and
all of them were dispatched to Dvaraka.

After this incident, Lord Krsna and Satyabhama entered Amaravatt, the
capital city of the heavenly planet, and they immediately entered the
palace of King Indra and his wife, Sacidevi, who welcomed them. Krsna

the competitive womanly nature of His co-wives, and He smiled. He
immediately asked Satyabhama, ‘Why are you asking for only one flower?
I would like to give you a whole tree of parijata flowers.”

Actually, Krsna had purposely taken His wife Satyabhama with Him so
she could collect the parijata with her own hand. But the denizens of the
heavenly planet, including Indra, became very irritated. Without their
permission, Satyabhama had plucked a parijata plant, which is not to be
found on the earth planet. Indra, along with other demigods, offered
opposition to Krsna and Satyabhama for taking away the plant, but in
order to please His favorite wife Satyabhama, Krsna became determined
and adamant, so there was a fight between the demigods and Krsna. As,
usual, Krsna came out victorious, and He triumphantly brought the
parijata plant chosen by His wife to this earth planet, to Dvaraka. After
this, the plant was installed in the palace garden of Satyabhama. On
