Once when the residents of Vrindavana headed by Nanda Maharaja were making preparations for a sacrifice in order to worship and please Indra, the Lord of the heavens and the controller of rainfall, Lord Krishna advised them to stop the Indra <em>yajna <\/em>and induced them to worship Govardhana Hill and the local <em>brahmanas <\/em>instead. He explained them that they all should be grateful to Govardhana Hill which supplied the various needs of their daily life such as food, agriculture and maintenance of cows.\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\tNanda Maharaja along with other cowherd men accepted Krishna&rsquo;s proposal and performed Govardhana worship as instructed by Him. When the ceremony was complete, little Krishna assumed a great transcendental form and declared to the inhabitants of Vrindavana that He was Himself Govardhana Hill. He also accepted all the offerings.&nbsp;\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n\tWhen Indra learnt that the sacrifice which was to be offered by the cowherd men was stopped by Krishna, he became furious and caused a heavy rainfall resulting in an extensive flood which inundated the entire land of Vrindavana.

Then Indra realized his offense and begged Krishna to forgive him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Terrible Storm (Govardhana-Lila) Lord Krishna performed Govardhana lila when He was a seven year old boy in order to crush the pride of Indra.
