Translation
An example: When Kṛṣṇa, the rain cloud for the cātaka birds of her eyes, was brought to Mathurā, Yaśodā, turning red-faced in anger, began to scold Nanda Mahārāja with a choked voice. In this example, the change of color and choked voice of Yaśodā have been caused by the secondary rati of anger (krodha-rati).
Purport (Jiva Goswami)
Overcome with krodha-rati, a secondary rati, Yaśodā had changes in her color and voice. These sāttvika-bhāvas are classed as secondary. [Note: It is indirectly related to Kṛṣṇa because the anger is not directed to Kṛṣṇa but to Nanda.]
Purport (Nectar of Devotion)
… is described in the following statement: Kṛṣṇa, who is also called Puruṣottama, is to the eyes of Mother Yaśodā just like the cloud is to the eyes of the cātakī bird. When Kṛṣṇa had been brought to Mathurā, Mother Yaśodā, being very anxious and angry, began to rebuke the King of Mathurā.
