SB 10.22.8
bhagavams tad abhipretya
krsno yogesvaresvarah
vayasyair avrtas tatra
gatas tat-karma-siddhaye
Translation:
Lord Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead and master of all masters
of mystic yoga, was aware of what the gopis were doing, and thus He
went there surrounded by His young companions to award the gopis the
perfection of their endeavor.
Purport:
As the master of all masters of mystic power, Lord Krsna could easily
understand the desires of the gopis, and He could also fulfill them. The
gopis, like all young girls from respectable families, considered the
embarrassment of appearing naked before a young boy to be worse than
giving up their lives. Yet Lord Krsna made them come out of the water
and bow down to Him. Although the bodily forms of the gopis were all
fully developed, and although Krsna met them in a secluded place and
brought them fully under His control, because the Lord is completely
transcendental there was not a trace of material desire in His mind.
Lord Krsna is the ocean of transcendental bliss, and He wanted to share
His bliss with the gopis on the spiritual platform, completely free of
ordinary lust.
Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura explains that the companions of
Krsna mentioned here were mere toddlers two or three years old. They
were completely naked and were unaware of the difference between male
and female. When Krsna went out to herd the cows, they followed Him
because they were so attached to Him that they could not bear to be
without His association.
