Attacking More Asuras

Chapter 11, 12

Vatsasura: When a demon entered the herd disguised as a calf, Krishna twirled him around and killed him.

Bakasura: The crane demon attacked Krishna with his sharp beak and tried to swallow Him. He met his death when his body was bifurcated by the Lord.

Aghasura: This snake demon was the younger brother of Putana and Bakasura. When the cowherd boys wandered into the gigantic python’s mouth, Krishna followed them and suffocated Aghasura. He then brought all the gopas and calves back to life. Krishna was five years old when this incident took place but the residents of Vrindavana only learned of it a year later – Maharaja Pariksit enquired why.
