Translation

They began to get angry (udyamya). They took fistfuls of reed as well.
Personal Guidance
Kṛṣṇa and Balarāma became angry, picked up cane stalks, and began killing with these clubs. Even the Lord's anger has a precise form.
Reflection Questions
- What does it teach me that the Lord's anger is part of His instruction?
- How could I imitate restraint even when angered?
