“T have already killed all the mischievous demons who are enemies of the
Yadu dynasty, and | have also killed Karnsa and his allies. However, there are
two or four demons still living. 1 want to kill them, and after doing so | shall
very soon return to Vrndavana. Please know this for certain.

PURPORT

Just as Krsna does not take a step away from Vrndavana, Krsna’s devotee also
does not like to leave Vrndavana. However, when he has to tend to Krsna’s busi-
ness, he leaves Vrndavana. After finishing his mission, a pure devotee returns
home, back to Vrndavana, back to Godhead. Krsna assured Radharani that after
killing the demons outside Vrndavana, He would return. “| am coming back very
soon,” He promised, “as soon as | have killed the few remaining demons.”
