Kṛṣṇa Recognizes the Approaching Threat

“This Yavana is besieging us already, and the mighty King of Magadha will soon arrive here, if not today then tomorrow or the next day.

Śrīla Prabhupāda · Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.50.46, translation

What the purport teaches

  • Kṛṣṇa noted that the Yavana was already besieging them.
  • The mighty King of Magadha was also expected to arrive soon.
  • His arrival could be today, tomorrow, or the following day, making the danger urgent.

Try this today

Identify one responsibility coming in the next few days and take one small step to prepare.

Ask yourself

Am I considering approaching responsibilities as well as the difficulty directly before me?

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.
