Åšukadeva GosvÄmÄ« said: When Nanda MahÄrÄja learned that the Yadus had arrived, led by Kṛṣṇa, he immediately went to see them. The cowherds accompanied him, their various possessions loaded on their wagons.
The cowherds of Vraja were planning to stay at Kuruká¹£etra for some days, so they came equipped with adequate provisions, especially milk products and other foods for the pleasure of Kṛṣṇa and BalarÄma.
