question if the demigods are not competitors of Krishna then why do they compete with Krishna as in the Brahma Vimohan Leela or the Govardhan Leela answer this question is based on a Gita Delhi article the demigods are not in competition with Krishna they are in procreation with Krishna so are the demigods constitutionally in competition with Krishna no their constitutional position is that they are subordinate to Krishna Krishna is the supreme lord and they have specific jurisdictions over specific things so in that sense the demigods are subordinate to Krishna but along with that they also have their own anarthas and because of those anarthas they may sometimes become overwhelmed so they may sometimes falling prey to temptation decide to do things thinking that they themselves are supreme and that Krishna is not supreme so that is how the Brahma Vimohan Leela or the Govardhan Leela happen and we see these are one off incidents the same devatas like Brahma and Indra they were there when the Garbha Stuti happens that means when Krishna is in the womb of Devaki as described in the initial chapters of the 10th canto at that time its clear that Krishna is they understand Krishna or whoever is the person in the womb they do not know at that time it will be Krishna who will be appearing they know its the incarnation of Vishnu and there they clearly talk about him as supreme and we will see that immediately after those particular past times also that means after Brahma Vimohan Leela chapter 14 of the 10th canto 13 chapters of Vimohan Leela 14 chapters Brahma’s prayers and similarly chapters 26 and 27 in the 10th canto which are the concluding parts of the Govardhan Leela they also talk about how Krishna is the supreme as even Indra acknowledges so that means that these are behavioral deviations that happen because of succumbing to the ego because of being temporarily overworn by illusion but the demigods are not constitutionally they are not supreme so in this particular article I was contrasting the demigods with the concept of demigods with the concept of false gods in the Abrahamic religion so in the Abrahamic religion the idea of a false god is that that god is competing constitutionally for the supreme position that belongs to the one supreme god and that is why that is and that is not a desirable thing that is a mistaken idea and that idea should be rejected so the Vedic understanding is that demigods are subordinate to Krishna always but sometime in terms of constitution they are also souls who are parts of Krishna but sometimes because of illusion they may try to act as supreme and then they are corrected and when they are corrected they immediately return back to their constitutional position again thank you
