When the devastation, the entire cosmos, which contains all the entities created, movable and immovable, enter into Your transcendental body and held it without difficulty. But now that transcendental form is born from my womb. People can not believe it, and everyone will laugh at me. MEANING
As explained in the Caitanya-caritamrta , there are two different kinds of loving service offered to the Personality of God-purna aisvarya , full of opulence and aisvarya-sithila without opulence. True love starts with aisvarya-sithila at the level of pure love.

Pure devotees, whose eyes are anointed with the balm of love, prema , want to see the Supreme Personality of Godhead in His form Syamasundara, Muralidharan, holding a flute with his two hands. That is how accessible to the inhabitants of Vrindavana, who are enamored of the Supreme Personality of Godhead in the form of Syamasundara and not in the form of Lord Vishnu, Narayana, who worship the devotees who admire Vaikuntha opulence. Devaki, although not located in the plane of Vrindavan, it is close. In terms of Vrindavan, Krishna's mother is a mother Yasoda, and at the Mathura and Dwaraka, Krishna's mother Devaki. In Mathura and Dwaraka, love for the Lord is mixed with feelings of admiration for his affluence, but not manifested in Vrindavan opulence of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
In loving service offered to the Supreme Personality of Godhead are five stages: santa , dasya , sakhya , and vatsalya madhurya . Devaki is located at the stage of vatsalya. She wanted to relate to Krishna, the eternal Son, located at that stage of love, and therefore wanted the Supreme Personality of God withdraw His opulent form of Vishnu. Srila Thakura Visvanatha Cakravarti illuminates this fact with great clarity in his explanation of this verse. Bhakti
, bhagavan bhakta and outside the material world. This is confirmed by Bhagavad-gita (14.26):
mam ca yo 'vyabhicarena
bhakti-yogena sevate
gunan samatityaitan sa brahma-
kalpate bhuyaya
bhakti-yogena sevate
gunan samatityaitan sa brahma-
kalpate bhuyaya
"One who engages in spiritual activities of unalloyed devotional service, at once transcends the modes of material nature and is elevated to the spiritual plane." From the very beginning of our discussions at the level of bhakti , we stand on the transcendental. For that reason, Vasudeva and Devaki, located in a completely pure state of devotion, are beyond the material world, free from fear material. However, in the transcendental world of pure devotion leads to a concept like fear, which is due to the intensity of love.
As stated in the Bhagavad-gita (Javan abhijanati breast bhaktya casmi tattvatah yas ) And is confirmed in Srimad-Bhagavatam ( bhaktyaham Ekaya grahyah ) without bhakti can not understand the spiritual situation of the Lord. The bhakti can be divided into three states, called guni-bhuta , pradhani-bhuta and kevala , which correspond to the three divisions of Jnana , jñanamayi and ratified or prema that is, simple knowledge, love mixed with knowledge and pure love. With the former, we can perceive the transcendental happiness without variety. This perception is called mana-Bhuti . When we reached the state of jñanamayi We can understand the transcendental opulence of the Personality of Godhead. But when we pure love, we perceive the transcendental form of Lord Krishna or Rama. That's what I want. Especially in madhurya-rasa, one develops attachment to the Personality of Godhead (Sri-vigraha -nistha-rupadi ). Then begin the loving exchanges between the Lord and the devotee.
The special importance in Vrajabhumi, Vrindavan, Krishna holds a flute in hand, is explained with the words ... virajate madhuri. The Lord's form with a flute in your hands is extremely attractive, and the person feels a greater attraction is Srimati Radharani sublime, Radhika. She enjoys a supremely blissful relationship with Krishna. Sometimes people can not understand why no mention of the name Radhika in the Srimad-Bhagavatam . The fact, however, is that Radhika can be derived from the word aradhana , indicating that she enjoys the loving relationships Krishna higher.
Devaki, who did not want to be teased for having given birth to Vishnu, Krishna wanted to form with two arms, and therefore asked the Lord to change his form.
