Significance of Damodara Bandhana Lila

Radhanath Swami

Today, Diwali is the actual day when this lila, Damodar bandhan took place. Actually, after Krishna was untied and was reunited with mother Yashoda more intimately than ever, the Gopis from that day on, they would love to call Krishna, Damodar, one who is bound by the waist by the rope of your mother’s love. Satyavrat Muni in Damodar-Ashtakam, offers his obeisances to Gopal, who is conquered by the love of his devotee, and he offers his obeisances to Yashoda Mayi, who is such a devotee, and he conq…he offers his obeisance’s millions of times to the rope, which personifies the love of a devotee's heart.
