TRANSLATION

The Lord ordered Yogamaya: O My potency, who are worship-
able for the entire world and whose nature is to bestow good for-
tune upon all living entities, go to Vraja, where there live many
cowherd men and their wives. In that very beautiful land, where
many cows reside, Rohini, the wife of Vasudeva, is living at the
home of Nanda Maharaja. Other wives of Vasudeva are also living
there incognito because of fear of Karnsa. Please go there.

PURPORT

Nanda-gokula, the residence of King Nanda, was itself very beautiful,
and when Yogamaya was ordered to go there and encourage the devotees
with fearlessness, it became even more beautiful and safe. Because
Yogamaya had the ability to create such an atmosphere, the Lord ordered
her to go to Nanda-gokula.
