Verse 51

Destroyer of the demon Agha — the serpent-demon Aghāsura opens his enormous body as a mountain-cave; the boys walk in thinking it a wonderful cave; Kṛṣṇa expands his body within to suffocate the demon.

'Destroyer of obstacles for Vraja' — Kṛṣṇa systematically destroys every demon Kaṃsa sends to harm Vṛndāvana; his presence makes Vraja the safest of all places.

'Reviver of Vraja' — after Aghāsura's death, the boys had been swallowed; Kṛṣṇa pulls each one out alive; his revival of the cowherd children is celebrated by the village.

'Treasury of all blessings (śreyas)' — Brahmā in his hymn calls Kṛṣṇa the source of all auspiciousness; whatever any being seeks, the path lies through him.

'Giver of liberation to demons' — even Aghāsura, like Pūtanā before him, attains a high destination because his death came at Kṛṣṇa's hand; the Bhāgavata notes this with wonder.
