Balarama struck the evil demon Pralamba on the head with all his might. Balarama was also an incarnation of Lord Vishnu just like Lord Krishna. So, Balarama had divine strength in his veins, and when he struck the blow on Pralambasura’s head, it was like the impact of a thousand punches. Facing such a powerful blow, the demon reeled under shock. The force of the blow was so strong that the demon fell senseless on the ground. In one mighty stroke, Balarama had killed the demon. Lord Krishna said, “You are just as strong as I, brother. Never fear evil again.” Balarama realised his own strength and said, “Krishna, the sight of that monstrous demon was horrific, but I heard Your words and realised he was no match for me.” The cowherds stared at the dead demon with astonishment. They praised Balarama for relieving them from the evil.
