iti - in this manner; adri - to Govardhana Hill; go - the cows; dvija - and the brÄhmaṇas; makham - the great sacrifice; vÄsudeva - by Lord Kṛṣṇa; pracoditÄḥ - urged; yathÄ - properly; vidhÄya - executing; te - they; gopÄḥ - the cowherds; saha-kṛṣṇÄḥ - together with Lord Kṛṣṇa; vrajam - to Vraja; yayuḥ - they went.
The members of the cowherd community, having thus been inspired by Lord VÄsudeva to properly execute the sacrifice to Govardhana Hill, the cows and the brÄhmaṇas, returned with Lord Kṛṣṇa to their village, Vraja.
Although the Govardhana-pÅ«jÄ was performed in a blissful and successful way, the matter was hardly finished. Lord Indra is, after all, tremendously powerful, and he received the news of the Govardhana sacrifice with burning anger. What ensued will be described in the following chapter.
Thus end the purports of the humble servants of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami PrabhupÄda to the Tenth Canto, Twenty-fourth Chapter, of the ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam, entitled “Worshiping Govardhana Hill.â€
