Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 7


Sanskrit:

गच्छ देवि व्रजं भद्रे गोपगोभिरलङ्कृतम् । रोहिणी वसुदेवस्य भार्यास्ते नन्दगोकुले । अन्याश्च कंससंविग्ना विवरेषु वसन्ति हि ॥ ७ ॥

ITRANS:

gaccha devi vrajaṁ bhadregopa-gobhir alaṅkṛtamrohiṇī vasudevasyabhāryāste nanda-gokuleanyāś ca kaṁsa-saṁvignāvivareṣu vasanti hi

Translation:

The Lord ordered Yoga-māyā: O My potency, who are worshipable for the entire world and whose nature is to bestow good fortune upon all living entities, go to Vraja, where there live many cowherd men and their wives. In that very beautiful land, where many cows reside, Rohiṇī, the wife of Vasudeva, is living at the home of Nanda Mahārāja. Other wives of Vasudeva are also living there incognito because of fear of Kaṁsa. Please go there.

Purport:

Nanda-gokula, the residence of King Nanda, was itself very beautiful, and when Yoga-māyā was ordered to go there and encourage the devotees with fearlessness, it became even more beautiful and safe. Because Yoga-māyā had the ability to create such an atmosphere, the Lord ordered her to go to Nanda-gokula.
