The boys were amazed at the huge size of the demon and how easily Kṛṣṇa killed him. They praised him because they could not really understand how it happened and because he had killed an invincible demon. They repeated the words “Sādhu sādhu” out of astonishment and joy. Because his death was beneficial to the devatās, the devatās were joyful and showered flowers.

The boys did not speak of the killing of Vatsa in Vraja since it was not so astonishing, among many astonishing events. Or because they were absorbed in playing they forgot immediately. Later when Baka was killed, they remembered. “We have told the story at some time.”
