Garga Muni Names Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma; the Butter-Thief Pastimes; Yaśodā Sees the Universe in Kṛṣṇa’s Mouth
श्रीशुक उवाच द्रोणो वसूनां प्रवरो धरया भार्यया सह । करिष्यमाण आदेशान् ब्रह्मणस्तमुवाच ह ॥ ४८ ॥
śrī-śuka uvāca droṇo vasūnāṁ pravaro dharayā bhāryayā saha kariṣyamāṇa ādeśān brahmaṇas tam uvāca ha
舒迦提婆说道:诸婆苏之中最卓越的德罗那,与其妻大地女神达拉一道,为遵行梵天之命,便如此对梵天说道。
As stated in the Brahma-saṁhitā (5.37) :
This verse shows Brahmā issuing instructions that are to be executed by exalted beings like Droṇa and Dharā, indicating that Kṛṣṇa’s līlā is supported by divine arrangement within the cosmic administration.
Droṇa is described as the foremost among the Vasus, and Dharā is his wife; they are presented here as empowered personalities preparing to fulfill Brahmā’s command connected to the unfolding of Kṛṣṇa’s līlā.
It highlights disciplined obedience to dharma and higher guidance—doing one’s duty in service to a greater divine purpose rather than acting only from personal preference.
