There is a description in the Hari-vaṁśa of Pradyumna’s activities when he kidnapped Prabhāvatī. Pradyumna addressed Prabhāvatī at that time and said, “My dear Prabhāvatī, just look at the head of our family, Śrī Kṛṣṇa. He is Viṣṇu Himself, the supreme driver of Garuḍa, and He is our supreme master. Because we have become so proud and confident of His protecting us, we sometimes do not even care about fighting with Tripurāri [Lord Śiva].”
