Returning With the Cowherd Boys

“As They strolled about at will, the sun began to set, so They left the city with the cowherd boys and returned to the cowherds’ wagon encampment.”
Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.42.23, translation

What the purport teaches

Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma strolled about the city at will.
As the sun began to set, They left the city.
The cowherd boys accompanied Them back to the cowherds’ wagon encampment.

Try this today

At sunset today, briefly remember Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma returning with the cowherd boys.

Ask yourself

What do you notice about the cowherd boys sharing this return journey?

Carry the question through the day, then answer it in your own words before sleep.

From Canto 10, chapter 14 onward, the translation and purports were completed by Śrīla Prabhupāda's disciples after his departure, and published by the Bhaktivedanta Book Trust.
