Jai sri krishna

 

In chapter 8 of the 10th skanda of the bhagavtam the Gopees of Vraj approach Matha Yoshoda to complian about Krishna and Balarma stealing butter and curds. In verse 29 the gopees describe the playful activities of Sri Bhagavan:

 

"Our dear friend Yaśodā, your son sometimes comes to our houses before the milking of the cows and releases the calves, and when the master of the house becomes angry, your son merely smiles. Sometimes He devises some process by which He steals palatable curd, butter and milk, which He then eats and drinks. When the monkeys assemble, He divides it with them, and when the monkeys have their bellies so full that they won't take more, He breaks the pots. Sometimes, if He gets no opportunity to steal butter or milk from a house, He will be angry at the householders,"...... SB,10.8.29

 

From knowledge of other shatras or oral traditions does anyone know if Sri Hanuman ji is amongst the monkies mentioned in this verse?????????????

 

Thanks and Jai Sri Krishna
