- We are on the border between Mathura and Vrndavana.
- The distance between Mathura and Vrndavana is only two fingers’ width.
- Vrndavana is the land of sweetness, and Mathura, of opulence.
- Kamsa sent many demons to Vrndavana, but none of them returned.
- After Kamsa had used all the available demons without obtaining a satisfactory result, he lost hope.
- Kamsa’s conclusion was that as long as Krsna was in Vrndavana, he would not be able to kill Him.
- Akrura was the person who had a connection with Mathura and Vrndavana.
- When Krsna left Vrndavana and went to Mathura, He was ten years and eight months old.
- To try and convince Krsna and Balaram, Akrura declared to Them that Devaki and Vasudeva were His parents.
- It is Krsna’s duty to punish the demons and protect the devotees.
- In Nanda Maharaja’s lap, Krsna gently asked permission to participate in the great event that would take place in Mathura.
- Jiva Gosvami, describing the heat of separation that the gopis felt, explained the three types of separation: past, present, and future.
- At that moment the gopis prayed, saying: “Oh Brahmaji, you have no compassion, we have friends and family now, but, in the course of time, we will be separated.”
- Although the opulence of Vrndavana outweighs the opulence of all the other sacred cities combined, the sweetness of Vrndavana overshadows this opulence.
