Purport (Jiva Goswami)
The killer of Tṛṇāvarta, Kṛṣṇa, thought, “Having killed this demon covered by passion and ignorance, who thought he was important and took me away, I shall now bewilder my own people.” The līlā-śakti shows the powers within Kṛṣṇa in order to pacify Yaśodā who had become dried up by the previous fears and worry about future disturbances. She took him from the bed, or since he was on the ground playing, she took him in her lap. Bhāvinī is seen instead of bhāminī in some versions. Bhāvinī means she was naturally endowed with all good qualities. She was submerged completely in affection for her son. Her breast was flowing strongly (pra-snutam) with milk, causing her garment to become wet.
Purport (Sanatana Goswami)
The devotees will shine with devotion for me if I kill the demon who disturbs the universe. Thinking this, the Lord killed Tṛnāvarta, leader of rajas and tamas. An astonishing pastime related to this is now told. This event happened at some unspecified time (ekadā), since the Lord is independent of time. Or the age could not be clearly discerned since even in his youth he shows characteristics of childhood, and in childhood shows characteristics of youth.
She, the most excellent woman (bhāvinī instead of bhāminī), took him from the bed, or since he was on the ground playing, she took him in her lap with force (ā). She was submerged completely in affection for her son. Her breast was flowing strongly (pra-snutam) with milk, causing her garment to become wet.
