Krishna Leela - Darshan to Akrura

On the way to Mathura, Akrura stops for his evening prayers. When he takes a dip in the Yamuna, he beholds Balarama and Krishna inside the water.  He checks the chariot again, but Balarama and Krishna are seated there.  When he takes a dip again, he has the darshan of Vishnu lying on Adisesha, with Lakshmi, the divine sages and other divine attendants. 

 

Akrura is overwhelmed and extols Balarama and Krishna.

Krishna Leela - Mathura Gamanam

 Kamsa gets to know that krishna is Vasudeva's eighth child. He instructs Akrura (a devotee of Krishna) to bring Krishna  to Mathura. Akrura gets the blessings of Krishna. The brothers, Krishna and Balarama, leave for Mathura.

 

The Gopikas are devastated by the separation. They lament, not knowing Krishna is always with them.
