Lord Krishna the Hindu god was born to Vasudev and Devaki but was bought and raised by his foster parents Nandalal and when mother Yashodha in village named Vrindavana. As per hindu custom the ceremony called Uthana is celebrated which means the properly bath of child. When Lord Krishna turned three months old, mother Yashoda celebrated this ceremony with neighborhood women. Same time Kansa the maternal uncle of Lord Krishna sent Sakatasura Demon to kill him. Sakatasura took the form of cart with the intention to crush the little baby Krishna.
Mother Yasoda found her child closing his eyes in sleep after the bath so she put him under the cart on bed lying there. The cart was full of vessels full of milk and curd. After a while the baby Krishna opened his eyes and cried for milk. Mother Yahsoda was engaged in receiving her guests so she did not hear baby Krishna’s cry. Lord Krishna crying angrily for his mother's milk pushed his leg upward resulting cart to collapse. The cart collapsed violently, the wheels separated from the axle, the hubs and spokes fell apart, the pole of the handcart broke and all the vessels scattered. This incident resulted the death of the demon Sakatasura.
When mother Yashoda with neighborhood ladies and other villagers assembled for the utthana festival, saw this unexpected situation, they began to wonder how the handcart collapsed by itself. As they were trying to find out the cause the small children present stated that the cart had been kicked apart by the baby Krishna.
The assembled villagers unaware that Krishna is always unlimited could not believe that baby Krishna had such incredible power. They could not believe the statements of the children, and therefore they neglected these statements as being childish talk. They did not realize the immeasurable strength of that child.
