His parents were Va- sudeva and Devakī; but he was brought up in the house of Nanda and Yasodā, to conceal him from the tyrant Kansa, to whom it had been predicted that a child, the eighth of this family, would destroy him. In the family of Nanda he passed his youth, among the gopas and gopīs. During his childhood he vanquished the serpent Kāliya, and slew many giants and monsters.
