Brahma found Krishna sharing food with cowherd friends amusing. Brahma had kidnapped the cows and Krishna's friends. Krishna wanted to teach him a lesson and created the stolen cows and cowherds out of himself and returned to the village. No one knew that they weren't real. Brahma then acknowledged Krishna's divinity.
Hastin was a great, violent cow. Balram wanted to kill Hastin, but Krishna told him that was not a good idea. Krishna challenged that he would ride Hastin by the next full moon. All warned Krishna against this but he didn't listen. Every night for a month, Krishna got closer to Hastin. By the next full moon, Krishna achieved riding Hastin and calming him. This is the lesson of kindness that Krishna taught. "The ultimate strength" (STORY)
Yashoda refused to let Krishna marry Nadha. Krishna could not marry Nadha as he was the saviour of Dharma. Krishna learned that Yashoda was not his real mother.
Kamsa was still aware that Krishna had not been killed. Kamsa sent Akrur to Vrindavan to get Krishna and Balram to come to his land. Akrur had respect for Krishna and told him the real reason why he was sent to get him. Krishna was not afraid to go to Kamsa and to Mathura, and agreed to go. The Gopis and people did not want Krishna to go. Krishna and Balram packed to go to Kamsa. Akrur witnessed the true form of Vishnu in the river. Spooked by what he saw, Akrur returned to the chariot to take Krishna and Balram to Mathura.
Krishna and Balram got accustomed into Mathura and with the people. Trivakra was a deformed woman living in Mathura. She was promised that the son of Vasudev would come and heal her. She realized that son was Krishna and she was excited. Krishna took her into a loving embrace and rid her of her deformities. More stories like this spread across Mathura and Kamsa heard them. Kamsa knew he only had a last chance to rid of him. An elephant, called Kuvalayapida, was frequently used in battle by Kamsa and he was going to use him to fight Krishna. The elephant attacked Krishna and flung him away. A single blow from Krishna onto the elephant sent it unconscious. Kamsa was fearful as Krishna had defeated the elephant and his plan had failed.
Krishna and Balram defeated some wrestlers that Kamsa put onto them. They went to the center and Krishna lifted the divine bow effortlessly. When he started stringing the bow, it snapped. Kamsa ordered his army to kill Krishna. Krishna and Balram defeated Kamsa's men with ease. Then they went after Kamsa and killed him. The people of Mathura wee thrilled that the evil Kamsa was gone. Krishna took charge as a leader in Mathura. Krishna helped Akrur free all the people in prisons. Ugrasen was made king of Mathura, Krishna's grandfather. and Kamsa's father
The death of Kamsa invited war from other allies. Every fight left Mathura in ruins. The other army was much larger and stronger and would not stop until Krishna was defeated. Dwarka was built and Mathura was shifted there. Krishna became king of Dwarka.
