Krishna’s Bal- lila

Nand Baba and Yashoda Maiya enjoying Krishna’s Bal-Lila

Krishna and Balram used to play in the compound of Nand Baba's house. Seeing them at play, Yashoda Maiya and Rohini maiya felt extremely happy. Krishna was given to the habit of being resented over trifles but even his resentments were very captivating indeed. The Gopis vied with each other to replenish his mood. Sometimes Krishna would get angry at mealtime. He insisted on dining out of Nand Baba's dishes. Baba would start pleasing Lala, forgetting about his own meal. Playful Krishna often smiled to see his parents' affection for him.

At times, Yashoda Maiya would feel fed up with her son's pranks and sit weeping pulling up a long face. Now the things would the other way round. Krishna would try in several ways to make his mother laugh. At last the mother’s affection would over-ride her anger and she would hug him closely. Little Krishna's lovely pranks used to fascinate his parents a lot. Not only this, his lovely, handsome and captivating looks had cast a spell on all the Gopis of Gokul and they had started calling him by the name--Manmohan. Each and every Gopi in Gokul had a keen desire to see Manmohan in her house enjoying butter and yogurt etc. Not only this, the Gopis used to adorn young Krishna with their personal ornaments. Sometimes they did not hesitate to vie with one another in the act of adorning young Krishna.
