And then the creator said this: "O Surabhi, go near the slayer of the Asuras to pacify the fear of the lord of the gods. And having gone, indeed avert from Kṛṣṇa the downfall of this one, who has truly acquired the name 'Duścyavana' ('hard to cast down' / 'fallen through evil'), whose appellation should certainly be disregarded by assemblies of poets out of fear of reciting a grievous sin. And that sovereignty over Goloka, another Vaikuṇṭha world that surpasses all others through proximity to his own opulence, should become manifest to him even in the mortal world; thus through the excess of service in his consecration, you are esteemed."
