Messengers

Makhana Taskara (Krsna the butter thief) and Balaram along with other boys are taking butter to their full satisfaction. They then gave the remainder of the butter to the monkeys.

Visarada, Tunga, Vavaduka, Manorama and Nitisara are the leaders of the young gopa (male cowherds) messengers. They carry Krsna's messages to the youthful gopis (female cowherds) to arrange pastimes and also to settle quarrels. - Sri Rupa Gowami
