Let me therefore offer my respectful obeisances unto the Lord, who has become the son of Vasudeva, the pleasure of Devak\u012b, the boy of Nanda and the other cowherd men of V\u1e5bnd\u0101vana, and the enlivener of the cows and the senses.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Lord, being thus unapproachable by any material assets, out of unbounded and causeless mercy descends to the earth as He is in order to show His special mercy upon His unalloyed devotees and to diminish the upsurges of the demoniac persons. Queen Kunt\u012b specifically adores the incarnation or descent of Lord K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47a above all other incarnations because in this particular incarnation He is more approachable. In the R\u0101ma incarnation He remained a king\u2019s son from His very childhood, but in the incarnation of K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47a, although He was the son of a king, He at once left the shelter of His real father and mother (King Vasudeva and Queen Devak\u012b) just after His appearance and went to the lap of Ya\u015bod\u0101m\u0101y\u012b to play the part of an ordinary cowherd boy in the blessed Vrajabh\u016bmi, which is very sanctified because of His childhood pastimes. Therefore Lord K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47a is more merciful than Lord R\u0101ma. He was undoubtedly very kind to Kunt\u012b\u2019s brother Vasudeva and the family. Had He not become the son of Vasudeva and Devak\u012b, Queen Kunt\u012b could not claim Him to be her nephew and thus address K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47a in parental affection. But Nanda and Ya\u015bod\u0101 are more fortunate because they could relish the Lord\u2019s childhood pastimes, which are more attractive than all other pastimes. There is no parallel to His childhood pastimes as exhibited at Vrajabh\u016bmi, which are replicas of His eternal affairs in the original K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47aloka, described as the cint\u0101ma\u1e47i-dh\u0101ma<\/i> in the Brahma-sa\u1e41hit\u0101.<\/i> Lord \u015ar\u012b K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47a descended Himself at Vrajabh\u016bmi with all His transcendental entourage and paraphernalia. \u015ar\u012b Caitanya Mah\u0101prabhu therefore confirmed that no one is as fortunate as the residents of Vrajabh\u016bmi, and specifically the cowherd girls, who dedicated their everything for the satisfaction of the Lord. His pastimes with Nanda and Ya\u015bod\u0101 and His pastimes with the cowherd men and especially with the cowherd boys and the cows have caused Him to be known as Govinda. Lord K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47a as Govinda is more inclined to the br\u0101hma\u1e47as<\/i>and the cows, indicating thereby that human prosperity depends more on these two items, namely brahminical culture and cow protection. Lord K\u1e5b\u1e63\u1e47a is never satisfied where these are lacking.<\/span><\/p>\n
