The umbrella acutally belonged to Varuna, but because of Indra’s superior position among the devatas, the verse mentioned that it was stolen from Indra. Being informed about the activities of Bhauma by Indra, whose umbrella, mother's earrings and jewel mountain were stolen, Krsna went to Bhanuma’ss city with his wife Satyabhama. Krsna had promised to Bhumi that he would not kill her son except with her permission. Satyabhama is non different from Bhumi since Bhumi is her expansion. During the fierce battle Satyabhama would give permission to kill Bhauma, not Bhumi. Krsna took Satyabhama to the battle for this purpose. Satyabhama became angry when Narada brought a parjiata flower for Rukmini. Krsna then promised her that he would bring her a whole tree of parijata. He therefore brought her along, to show her is capacity to take the tree from Indra.

It should be understood that Indra went to Dvārakā and informed Kṛṣṇa. Viṣṇu Purāṇa says: dvāravatyāṁ sthite kṛṣṇe śakras tri-bhuvaneśvaraḥ / ājagāmātha maitreya mattairāvata-pṛṣṭhagaḥ // Indra, lord of the three worlds, mounted on intoxicated Airāvata, came to Dvārakā where Kṛṣṇa was staying. Bhauma had also stolen the mountain playground of the devatās, Mandara mountain, with its jeweled peak. Stealing Varuṇa’s umbrella and other acts of Bhauma are also described in Viṣṇu Purāṇa. bhaumo 'yaṁ narako nāma prāgjyotiṣa-pureśvaraḥ / karoti sarva-bhūtānām upaghātam arindama // deva-sidda-surādīnāṁ nṛpāṇāṁ ca janārdana / hṛtvā tu so 'suraḥ kanyā rurudhe nijamandire // chatraṁ yat salila-srāvi ujjahāra pracetasaḥ / mandarasya tathā śṛṅgaṁ hṛtavān maṇi-parvatam // amṛta-srāviṇī divye man mātuḥ kṛṣṇa kuṇḍale / jahāra so 'suro ‘dityā vāñchaty airāvataṁ gajam // Bhauma, also called Naraka, the controller of Pragjyotiṣa, is disturbing all living beings, the devatās, Siddhas, sages, and kings, O lord. He has kidnapped young women and locked them in his palace. He has stolen Varuṇa’s umbrella which flows with water. He has stolen the jeweled peak of Mandara. The demon stole my mother Aditi’s shining earrings which flow with nectar. He desires my elephant Airāvata. He made his request while offering respects on the ground. That is understood from verse 41. Garuḍa arrived just by calling him in his mind or he was in the vicinity ready to serve. Kṛṣṇa mounted Garuḍa with his wife since she wanted to see the excitement of retrieving the goods, and he wanted to present her with the pārijāta tree. Having her accompany him also indicates disregard for Bhauma’s ferocity. ”She will go with me to the battle and then desire the pārijāta tree, which I will bring back. I will derive pleasure when Rukmiṇī desires it. It is not that I desire to fight with Bhauma.” This is how he felt in all the battles with demons. Indra returned to his city. āruhyairāvataṁ nāgaṁ śakro 'pi tridivaṁ yayau / tato jagāma kṛṣṇaś ca paśyatāṁ dvārakaukasām // Mounting Airāvata, Indra returned to Svarga. Kṛṣṇa went to Bhauma’s city while the people of Dvārakā watched. The wind defense was a strong wind whirling around like a potter’s wheel. The various obstacles are here described as the Lord came to them. The order in which he pierced them is described later. The fortress of weapons consists of weapons used as obstacles (not held by warriors) which on begin touched produced injuries on the body. They were terrible (ghoraiḥ) because they were sharp. Viṣṇu Purāṇa describes the city: prāgjyotiṣa-purasyāpi samantācchata-yojanam / ācitā mauravaiḥ pāśaiḥ kṣurāntair dvija-sattama // The city was a hundred yojanas in length and breadth, piled with sharp ropes of the Mura demon. The word mauravaiḥ comes from Mura just as saukara comes from sūkara. The ropes were difficult to cut (dṛḍhaiḥ).
