Prabhupada told him that by eating one is getting mercy. "Eating nobody will refuse. So by eating he is being favored by Krsna. This is the process. You understand Bengali?

Then Krishna and Baladeva used to go out, and lie down on the ground beneath them, and the cows udders would spontaneously pour milk into Their mouths. The cows would think, “If only Krishna were my son! Then I could give Him my milk, and show love and affection for Krishna.“ This mood was everywhere in Vraja.
Krishna and Baladeva grew up, and when They were

color:maroon"">Question: Is Krishna (God) Male, Female, or Both?
In talking with friends about God, they struggle to understand when I refer to God as He. They believe that because everything comes from God then He must be a She also. They also find itextremely hard to refer to God as He due to past negative experiences growingup as Christians. They feel that referring to God as He does not liberate themas females. I'm not sure how to handle their objections.mso-fareast-font-family:"Times New Rom

In the rainy season, when the rivers swell and rush to the ocean, and as the wind blows the waves about, the ocean appears to be agitated. Similarly, if a person engaged in the mystic yoga process is not very advanced in spiritual life, he can be affected by the modes of nature and thus will be agitated by the sex impulse.
A person fixed in spiritual knowledge will not be attracted by the allurement of material nature in the form of beautiful women a
Prabhupada chuckled, hypothetically paraphrasing our parents: "'When you are older, you become a debauch -- but don't become now!' If it is a good thing, why older and younger?"
He said that such a reaction was natural. "These things are not good. They know it, but they are habituated. But they do not like that son should be habituated."

एक पुकार ,
मे कौन ?
कहाँ से आया हू?
तू है कृष्णा का अंग ,
तू था उसी के संग ,
तूने किया कोई जब पाप ,

A female parrot sitting on the branch of a nearby tree began to sing of Sri Radhika's glorious qualities.

I am so thankful for the time You have allowed me to live here in Srila Prabhupada house and do full time service. Because it's the nature for all
