nor could the sages, who were all pure devotees of the Lord, be influenced
to anger by any of the sporting activities of the princes born in the holy
dynasty of Yadu or Bhoja wherein the Lord Himself appeared as a
descendant. The cursing of the princes by the sages is another transcen-
dental pastime of the Lord to make a show of anger. The princes were
cursed in order that one may know that even the descendants of the Lord,
who could never be vanquished by any act of material nature, were
subjected to the reactions of anger by great devotees of the Lord. One
should, therefore, take great care and attention not to commit an offense
at the feet of a devotee of the Lord.

TRANSLATION
A few months passed, and then, bewildered by Krsna, all the
descendants of Vrsni, Bhoja and Andhaka who were incarnations of
demigods went to Prabhasa, while those who were eternal devotees of the
Lord did not leave but remained in Dvaraka.
