21) Plucked away Pārijāta. During the period when Narakāsura was having his own ways on the earth and when he took away by force Indra's royal umbrella and the ear-rings of Aditi, the Devamātā, Indra sought Krṣṇa's help to suppress the Asura. Krṣṇa along with Satyabhāmā, mounted Garuḍa, went and killed the Asura and restored the royal umbrella to Indra and the ear-rings to Aditi. On their way back home Krṣṇa, as desired by Satyabhāmā, plucked by its roots the Pārijāta from Devaloka at which Indra fought Krṣṇa, but defeated. The Pārijāta was brought to Dvārakā and planted in front of Satyabhāmā's palace. It is stated that Pārijāta was thus brought and planted by Krṣṇa to alleviate the grief caused to Satyabhāmā by the return by Krṣṇa of Syamantaka to Satrājit. (Bhāgavata, 10th Skandha).
