Krsna Rescues His Teacher’s Son



1. Understanding that His parents were becoming aware of His transcendental opulences, the Supreme Personality of Godhead thought that this should not be allowed to happen. Thus He expanded His Yogamaya, which bewilders His devotees.

Sri Radhe-Krsna's playful pastimes (vihara) - Javata


Once, Srimati Radhika was in mana and did not meet Krsna for several days. The sakhis tried various means to convince Her to give up Her mana, but on this occasion Her mana was fixed and therefore difficult to subdue. Krsna's separation from Radha filled Him with great distress. Subala sakha therefore began to hatch a plan to help Him meet with Radha. Subala exactly resembles Srimati Radhika in age, beauty, speech and so forth and is skilled in many arts. He consoled Krsna, saying," Why are You so distressed? You should wait in this kunja for a short time while I arrange Your meeting with Priyaji." Saying this, he went to Yava-grama. When Jatila(Srimati Radhika's mother-in-law) saw him there, she cried out," Subala, you are the friend of that licentious debauchee Krsna, why are you hovering around our house? Leave this place immediately."
