PURPORT

At the time of Lord Kṛṣṇa's birth, Garga Muni had predicted, anena sarva-durgāṇi yūyam añjas tariṣyathā (Bhāg. 10.8.16): "By His grace you will easily cross beyond all difficulties." The residents of Vṛndāvana were confident that in such a great emergency Lord Śrī Nārāyaṇa would empower Kṛṣṇa to protect them. They accepted Kṛṣṇa as everything, and Kṛṣṇa reciprocated their love.
