Nandadi (those living in the place called Nanda Gokula) Gopala's (those who are looking after cows are called Gopala's) started doing customery festival to Indra (called Indrotsava). In that festival Gopala's have prepared Holige (sweet cake), Payasa (liquid sweet dish), Tovve (dish prepared from Toor dal) and different types of rices (cooked rice, mixture rice) to offer the same to Indra. But Krishna suggested to perform the same puja (festival) to Govardhana Mountain in Vridavana instead of Indra. On Sri Krishna suggestion Gopala's offered all the above items to Govardhana Mountain, Sri Krishna received all these offerings by his presence in one form inside the Govardhana Mountain. Indra got very wild with the stopping of his puja (festival). Then Indra sent clouds with full of water and started pouring heavy rains in Vridavana. This rain was equal to the waters gushing during the extinction time. By this Indra created dangers to all cows and Gopala's. Then Sri Krishna lifted Govardhana mountain and protected and given shelter to all Gopala's and their cows (below) under the mountain.
Sri Krishna who has the quality of Manmatha by attracting beautiful Gopika ladies by seeing through the edges of his eyes. By attracting all these Gopika ladies all of them desired to have him as their husband. By showing his play Sri Krishna robbed the sarees of these beautiful looking ladies when they were taking bath in the river Yamuna and kept on the top of the trees. He also realised their pure love and devotion and blessed all them. The same Sri Krishna has stolen the Parijatha Tree which was there in adobe and brought to Dwaraka. He also killed the demon called Vyamasura who is the enemy of Gopala's.
Sri Vadiraja is praying that Sri Krishna has done like this many wonderful things and has solved many dangers and he is praying to solve many dangers.

Garuda one who is the king (leader) of birds is Sri Krishna vechicle (carrier). Sri Krishna is acting as the master to Arjuna, who is sitting in the car (ratha) which constitutes white horses. (That's why his ratha (car) is being called 'Shwetha Vahana' (white vechicle)).
Sri Krishna has destroyed one demon called 'Keshi' who came in the form of horse and was giving torments (troubles) to Gopala's by putting his hand inside the horse mouth and blocking the respiratory system.
Sri Krishna's head is decorated by the fragrant flowers like Jasmine, Cadamba, Lotus and other flowers.

In these two verse Sri Vadiraja is explaining Sri Krishna concern towards devotees and love towards Pandavas.
Tormented Duryodhana made Bhimasena who is considered to be equal to his nature to under go the follwing troubles :
Duryodhana made Bhimasena to eat poisonous sweets like laddu and other sweets, because of Sri Krishnas blessings Bhima digested all those eatables.
Duryodhana made poisonous snakes to bite Bhimasena, by doing so snakes lost their teeths, but it has not affected Bhima. When Bhimasena was fast asleep, Duryodhana tied him with strong threads and with his assistants he has thrown him to the deep waters of Ganga, even at that time Bhima was not affected. At that time Bhima went to Pathala (lower region) and drank eight pots of Amrutha which Vasuki (snake) has given and came out with more powers. When Pandavas were living in the woods jealous (envious) Duryodhana tried to kill (destroy) them by burning inside the wax house where they were residing. By the blessing of Sri Krishna they all (Pandavas) escaped from this trouble.
Bhimasena crossed the river Ganga, there he killed the demon called Hidimba. Later in the city of Ekachakra when all pandavas are living as Seekers (bhikshakaru), Bhimasena killed Bhakasura.
>From there they moved to the city of Panchala there they got married to Drupadi and returned to Hastinavati where they were all living on getting the half of their share of their kingdom.
Again tormented Duryodhana invited Pandavas for betting and through deceitful Shakuni made pandavas to lose the game and sent them to the woods (forests) again.
Duryodhana and company were always talking very bad about Pandavas. By the blessings of Sri Krishna Pandavas completed the period of living in woods (vanavasa) and were living in disguise in the court of the king Virata who is lower in their cadre.
At all these times many bad people were making radicule (mockery) of sacred Padavas again and again and were laughing.
All these things were seen by Sri Krishna and according to his will (wish, purpose) he made arrangements for the great Mahabharatha War.
Sri Krishna along with his own man Bhimasena, his eldest brother Dharamaraja and Indra's son Arjuna and many good people decided to wage war and destroy Duryodhana and his associates and Akshohini army. For this purpose he left Garuda his vechicle and king of birds, sword called Nanda, bow called Shagrya & arrows, sharpened sudharshana wheel and became the driver (sarathi) to Arjuna's vechicle (ratha) where Hanuma's flag has been hoisted, mainly to protect him. This decision (will, purpose) is very great.
Sri Vadiraja is praying that Sir Krishna paramathama is big by doing all these things.

============
There was a time, when the whole world (kaliyuga) was full of divine culture and vaidic (sacred) environment and at the same time many demons (asuras) were also born and started following the divine culture and learning divine knowledge. Because of this dharma started decaying (spoilt) in their hands.
During that time for the king of Shakya by name Shudhodhana a baby was born. It is understood that Sri Paramathma in the form of this baby started talking and preached that this world is void (shunya, empty) and all things which are happening are all miseries. This is suppose to be Bhuddha philosophy. (Sri Hari who is in the form of Baby has preached this).
In order to prove this philosophy is true to the people Sri Hari has swallowed all the weapons which devataas has attacked to the baby. After seeing these wonders and these incidents the King Shuddodaka and his followers started believing the new philosophy and started practising the same, by leaving aside the vedic philosophy.
After sometime the Paramathma who was in the form of baby has disappeared.
and Shuddodaka son appeared again. Shuddodaka son grown up as Bhudda
started preaching Bhudda philosophy which Paramathma has publicised previously.
Even in Devaloka (adobe) Sri Paramathma has preached devataas (demi gods)
the real essence of Bhudda philosophy which he has preached as Bhudda in
this world. Sri Paramathma preached demi gods the essence of Bhudda
philosophy which is publishised as 'Prashanthavidya' which even Shuddodaka's
son Bhudda and his followers cannot understand this
philosophy.
Sri Vadiraja is praying Sri Hari who is in the form of Bhudda to be kind to him by doing bhuddanjali.
Sri Vadiraja is praying Sri Hari who is in the form of Sri Kalki
as one who is destroying (killing) wildered enemies and one who is wearing
(holding) sword and shield and sitting on top of the pleasant horse. His
body with all organs of the body are shining like splendour and Sri Vadiraja
is praying that he is his own person who has to protect him.
PS : The original preaching of Bhudda philosophy was preached and publisised by Sri Narayana in the form of Bhudda. The preaching are meant in two ways. The original meaning was told to demi gods or devataas by himself in deva loka (adobe). But the sinful asuras or demons taken (understood) his preaching in wrongful meaning and started practising the same by blaming the vaidic dharama. Like this Paramathma will incarnate to get love from Asuras to Devataas has been told in Bhagavatha prathama scanda chapter 32 shloka 24.
In order to attract the Asuras who are enemies of devataas Sri Hari will incarnate as Bhudda as son of Jinana in the place called Gaya in the land of Magadha. This has been told in Mahabharata Tatparya Nirnaya Chapter 32 shloka 139.
Further, it has also been told that after completing 1000 years of Kaliyuga when all the devataas who were there in that yuga reached adobe and one who is killed by (destroyed by) Rudra by name Tripurasura was reborn in this world. At that time even Sri Vedavysa has disappeared and divine culture was existent by removing all faulty practices. At that time even demons had the opportunity to learn divine knowledge. But devataas and Paramathma did not like the idea of demons gaining divine knowledge. All devataas went to the ocean of milk where Sri Hari is residing and prayed him to bless them the solution for the above scene. During the same time in the place called Gaya (land of Magadha) Tripurasura was born to Shuddodana or Jinana. Paramathma disappeared the new born child and incarnated as a child. When Shuddodaka started doing ritual for the new born baby, the baby started smiling. They all stunned by the happening and the baby started preaching the new siddhanta called Bhudda sidhanta. Because of the prevailing situation ie divine culture they all did not believe the new philosophy, Paramathma remembered (called) his devataas and those devataas started launching different weapons on the new born baby. But that baby swallowed all the weapons like trishula etc and even when Vishnu attacked the baby with his discuss (chakra), even that the paramathma in the form baby made it as its seat and sat. On seeing the wonders of this child, Shuddodana and his followeres started believing and accepted the new philosophy by leaving divine culuture which they were following. After that the Paramathma disappeared from there and preached the real meaning of the new philosophy to the devataas, but demons were attracted by this new preaching and started following the same.
Even before this incident there is mention in Bhagavatha that Bhudda manifested earlier to attract Tripurasura's wives.
The Bhudda who was born during 3000 AD is not the incarnation of
Sri Narayana. Goutama Bhudda is one who has publicised the Bhudda
philosophy which was preached by Sri Narayana as a child. It should
be assumed that Goutama Bhudda is not the manifestation of Sri Narayana.

Translations
============
There is bird called 'Jataka' (which belongs to cuculus melnoleucus family which suppose to live upon rain drops) which depends on rain and this bird eagerly waits for the rain and when it sees clouds this bird feel very happy and joyous. Sri Vadiraja is comparing the Jataka bird to the R^ishis (saints) who wear deer skins as cloths and they will be very happy to devote to Sri Hari and inturn Sri Hari act as clouds to them like the same for Jataka bird. When king of Elephant was in difficulty and having misery with the crocodile Sri Hari rushed towards him for rescue and to bless him. (Great epic Gajendra Moksha)
Further, Sri Vadiraja is explaining for and behalf of the devotees who are living in this world to Sri Hari. In this materialistic world most of the devotees are attacked by the bhava roga (great disease, materialistic needs disesase) and are weakened by the same. Their pledges for doing good things, dharma etc are failing because of their egotism (assuming 'I', myself etc). There is no medicine to solve this kind of samsaric diseases or conlude (retire) these miseries except Sri Hari's rescue and shelter. All devotees are going to Sri Hari like the black bees going in search of flower to suck the juice.
Sri Vadiraja is praying that Sri Hari's feets are so beautiful even Lotus flower feel shy on seeing the same and the same feets are roaming on all parts of adobe (vaikunta). The same two feet Sri Vadiraja is taking refuge continuously (without any interruptions) and praying Sri Tivikrama who is wearing mace (club, gada) to protect him.
