Verse Text
navyena yauvanenāpi dīvyan goṣṭhendra-nandanaḥ |
bhāti kevala-vātsalya-bhājāṁ paugaṇḍa-bhāg iva ||37||
Translation
Though Kṛṣṇa is beautiful in the age of nava-yauvana (late kaiśora), He appears as if He were still in the paugaṇḍa age for those fixed in pure vātsalya-rasa.
Purport (Nectar of Devotion)
When Kṛṣṇa, the beloved son of Nanda Mahārāja, steps into His kaiśora age, although He becomes more beautiful, His parents still consider Him to be in the paugaṇḍa age—even though He is between the ages of ten and fifteen.
