GOPIS ACT AS SHE DEMON PUTNA AND INFANT KRISHNA

Kasyanshchitputnayanitya krisharhantyaapibat satnam I

Tokyitiva      rudatyanya          padahanchhatkayatim II (15)

Some Gopi posed as She Demon Putna and other became infant Krishna and drank milk from her breast. Someone crying like child Krishna kicked another Gopi posing cart like.

Comments: Gopis were so immersed in devotion to Lord Krishna that they always remembered Krishna pastime acts.

Lord Krishna explains the qualities of his devotees in chapter 12 of Shrimad Bhagwad Geeta.

In reply to Arjun’s query as to who is better of the devotees whether one who worships him in personal form or one who worships him in impersonal form, Lord Krishna replies in verse 2:

            Mayyaveshya   mano     ye  mam   nityyukta  upaste I

           

             Shardhya paryopetaste  mey      yukttamah    matah II (2)

Lord Shri Krishna says: Those who surrender themselves unto me and fix their total devotion on me and worship me with deep faith, with their minds completely absorbed in me, I consider them most devoted to me.

Gopis are ideal example of devotion unto Lord Krishna.
