- **Language:** Sanskrit

### [1.6.16](https://indike.org/pramana/in.lit.campu.krsna.gopalacampu.1.6.16)

\[8\] tadā ca pūtanāvan nūtanārbhakāya kaṃsa-prahitaḥ kaścid diviṣad-ahitaḥ samāgamya divi sthita evaṃ cintayāmāsa: "sa pūtanā-pothako' yaṃ poto visaṅkaṭa-śakaṭādhastād āste | sākṣān mantuṃ vidhātuṃ na ko' pi jantur amuṣya śakṣyatīti lakṣyate | chadma-rūpa-sadmatayā ca pūtanā saṃsthitā, tasmād amūrta eva sann atra pūrtaye bhavāni" iti | tataś cāsau śakaṭam aprakaṭam āviṣṭavān |

> And then, sent by Kaṃsa against the newborn infant just like Pūtanā, a certain enemy of the gods arrived and, standing in the sky, reflected thus: "This child, the crusher of Pūtanā, sits beneath a huge cart. It is evident that no creature will be able to inflict harm on him directly. And Pūtanā stayed there having assumed a deceptive form; therefore, remaining entirely bodiless, let me bring about \[my goal\] here!" Then he invisibly entered the cart.
