The Lord comes...

Verse 1.11.34 (Balagovind Pr):
* Here it is told that the Lord was pacified after killing the demons. That is the purpose of the Lord coming to the material world - to establish religious principles.
* SP tells that the ruling demons were burden to the earth, because they were puffed up due to their material opulence. And in that they committed many sins, this causing the burden to this world.
* In the present condition also, same thing is going on. We as living beings are also puffed up, have our own small militaries (our body, that which is generated from this body - relations - called atmasainya), so we are also puffed up. And our actions are like that. We think that at the time of death, this army will save me, but it is not so.
* We are able to see, but not able to realize it. that is in our maddened condition, we are not able to understand our bad condition. So reading Srimad Bhagavatam, will help us realize this.
* But in Kaliyuga, devotees and demons are all living in the same place, so if the Lord wants to eliminate the miscreants, then no one will remain. So, the Lord incarnates in the form of the Holy name, so that through this chanting of the holy name, we can eliminate our anarthas, thus going towards God.
* Whoever surrenders to the Lord, chants His holy name, will be able to overcome the onslaught of the material world. That is Krishna Consciousness.
