When Lord Brahma ordered Drona, the best of the Vasus, and his wife Dhara to increase progeny, they said unto him, “Dear father, we seek your benediction. Please let us be born on earth so that after our appearance the Supreme Lord will appear as our son and spread devotional service.
In this way those born in the material world may very easily be delivered from misery.” Brahma agreed, and thus when Drona and Dhara took birth in Vrndavana as Nanda Maharaja and mother Yasoda, Lord Krsna appeared as their son and in their presence enacted His most attractive childhood pastimes. Their dealings with Krsna were so powerful that simply by hearing of them anyone can very easily cross over the nescience of birth and death.
Having gotten Krsna as their son, Nanda and Yasoda developed their unalloyed devotion for Him, and all the men, women, boys, girls, and others in the cowherd community who associated with Krsna naturally developed their own distinct feelings of love for Him.
Thus fulfilling the benediction of Lord Brahma, Lord Krsna appeared with His plenary expansion Balarama and performed all kinds of childhood pastimes to increase the transcendental pleasure of the residents of Vrndavana.
