Krishna and boiling milk

One day, Yashoda sent all the servants for the preparation of Indra Yagya.She herself was busy in churning curd. While she was busy with her work, little Krishna woke up from his sleep and

started crying loudly. Yashoda put the curd aside and held her son in her arms. She started feeding

him with milk. But just then , she remembered that she had put the container of milk on the fire

and the milk must have boiled. She hurriedly put Krishna down on his bed and rushed towards the

kitchen. But Krishna’s hunger was not satisfied till then. Mother Yashoda had given priority to the

boiling milk and put him down from her  lap. So Krishna got angry. He held a stone and threw it

to the vessel of the curd. The vessel broke and the curd started flowing from it. He then broke the

vessel of butter too and distributed it among the monkeys of Gokul. When Yashoda returned and saw that it was Krishna’s naughtiness, she scolded him , but when she saw him sad , she lovingly took him in her lap and started feeding him again .
