In this connection it is necessary to understand one thing which has always puzzled people who wanted to understand Krishna.
In this context I would like to recall your words, “When Krishna says that he is here to destroy the wicked, he actually means to change them, to reform them.” But these stories clearly say he really destroyed them. Do you think these are true stories or mythical ones? And what do they suggest and symbolize? He subdued a very venomous snake known as Kalia, and put out a whole forest fire single-handed. He killed the tyrant king Kansa and destroyed demons like Kirti, Agha, Baka and Ghotaka in a duel he defeated powerful wrestlers like Chanoor and Mustika. Krishna's life, particularly his childhood, is full of stories of his extraordinary heroism.
