sÄ vÄ«ká¹£ya viÅ›vaá¹ sahasÄ
rÄjan sañjÄta-vepathuḥ
sammÄ«lya má¹›gaÅ›ÄvÄkṣī
netre ÄsÄ«t suvismitÄ
sÄ - mother YaÅ›odÄ; vÄ«ká¹£ya - by seeing; viÅ›vam - the whole universe; sahasÄ - suddenly within the mouth of her son; rÄjan - O King (MahÄrÄja ParÄ«ká¹£it); sañjÄta-vepathuḥ - whose heart was beating; sammÄ«lya - opening; má¹›gaÅ›Äva-akṣī - like the eyes of a deer cub; netre - her two eyes; ÄsÄ«t - became; su-vismitÄ - astonished.
Because of her pure maternal love, mother YaÅ›odÄ thought that this wonderful child playing so many tricks must have had some disease. She did not appreciate the wonders shown by her child; rather, she wanted to close her eyes. She was expecting another danger, and therefore her eyes became restless like those of a deer cub. This was all the arrangement of Yoga-mÄyÄ. The relationship between mother YaÅ›odÄ and Kṛṣṇa is one of pure maternal love. In that love, mother YaÅ›odÄ did not very much appreciate the display of the Supreme Personality of Godhead’s opulences.
At the beginning of this chapter, two extra verses sometimes appear:
evaá¹ bahÅ«ni karmÄṇi
gopÄnÄá¹ Å›aá¹ sa-yoá¹£itÄm
nandasya gehe vavá¹›dhe
kurvan viṣṇu-janÄrdanaḥ
“In this way, to chastise and kill the demons, the child Kṛṣṇa demonstrated many activities in the house of Nanda MahÄrÄja, and the inhabitants of Vraja enjoyed these incidents.â€
evaṠsa vavṛdhe viṣṇur
nanda-gehe janÄrdanaḥ
kurvann aniÅ›am Änandaá¹
gopÄlÄnÄá¹ sa-yoá¹£itÄm
“To increase the transcendental pleasure of the gopas and the gopÄ«s, Kṛṣṇa, the killer of all demons, was thus raised by His father and mother, Nanda and YaÅ›odÄ.â€
ÅšrÄ«pÄda Vijayadhvaja TÄ«rtha also adds another verse after the third verse in this chapter:
vistareṇeha kÄruṇyÄt
sarva-pÄpa-praṇÄÅ›anam
vaktum arhasi dharma-jña
dayÄlus tvam iti prabho
“ParÄ«ká¹£it MahÄrÄja then requested Åšukadeva GosvÄmÄ« to continue speaking such narrations about the pastimes of Kṛṣṇa, so that the King could enjoy from them transcendental bliss.â€
Thus end the Bhaktivedanta purports of the Tenth Canto, Seventh Chapter, of the ÅšrÄ«mad-BhÄgavatam, entitled “The Killing of the Demon TṛṇÄvarta.â€
