• The unease and troubling incidents that compel the Yadavas to seek a safer and more auspicious dwelling.

• The suggestion by the great Gopa Upananda to relocate to Vrindavana, a beautiful forest near the Govardhana mountain and the Yamuna river.

• The beginning of their journey to Vrindavana, a place well-loved by Lord Krishna, where he would grow up and perform many divine pastimes.

• The entry into Vrindavana marks a significant transition to Krishna's childhood and youth, where many of his miraculous deeds and leelas occur.

• Vrindavana symbolizes spiritual refuge, divine play (leela), and the manifestation of divine love and devotion.
