FAQs
In this verse, Indra and Indrāṇī respectfully worship Śrī Kṛṣṇa after He returns Aditi’s earrings, showing that even the king of heaven honors the Supreme Lord.
Because Kṛṣṇa restored Aditi’s stolen earrings and demonstrated His supreme power and protection of the righteous, Indra received Him with reverence and affection.
Offer respect to divine goodness and virtue wherever it appears, and cultivate humility—recognizing that real greatness naturally honors the Supreme and His service.
