Maharaj Yudhisthir, although nobody's enemy, engaged four divisions of defensive measures (Horse, elephant, chariot and army) to accompany Lord Krishna, the enemy of the Ashuras, just being afraid of other enemy as also out of affection for the Lord.

Natural defensive measures are the horses and elephant combined with chariot and army. Horses and elephants are trained up to move to any part of the hills, forest or on the level. The charioteers could fight with many horses and elephants by the strength of powerful arrows even up to the standard of Brahmastra (similar to modern atomic weapons). Maharaj Yudhisthir knew it well that Krishna is everyone's friend and well wisher and yet there were Ashuras who were by nature envious of the Lord. So out of being afraid of attack from others and out of affection also he engaged all varieties of defensive measure as body guard of Lord Krishna. If required Lord Krishna Himself was sufficient to defend Himself from the attack of others who counted the Lord as their enemy but still He accepted all the arrangements made by Maharaj Yudhisthir because He could not disobey the King who was His elder cousin. The Lord plays the part of a subordinate out of transcendental humour and as such sometimes He puts Himself at the care of Yosoda Mata for His protection in His so called helplessness of childhood. That is the transcendental Leela or pastimes of the Lord. The basic principle for all such transcendental humour between the Lord and His devotees are exhibited to enjoy a transcendental bliss for which there is no comparison even up to the level of Brahmananda.

Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira, although no one's enemy, engaged four divisions of defense [horse, elephant, chariot and army] to accompany Lord Kṛṣṇa, the enemy of the asuras [demons]. The Mahārāja did this because of the enemy, and also out of affection for the Lord.

Natural defensive measures are horses and elephants combined with chariots and men. Horses and elephants are trained to move to any part of the hills or forests and plains. The charioteers could fight with many horses and elephants by the strength of powerful arrows, even up to the standard of the #i#brahmāstra#/i# (similar to modern atomic weapons). Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira knew well that Kṛṣṇa is everyone's friend and well-wisher, and yet there were #i#asuras#/i# who were by nature envious of the Lord. So out of fear of attack from others and out of affection also, he engaged all varieties of defensive forces as bodyguards of Lord Kṛṣṇa. If required, Lord Kṛṣṇa Himself was sufficient to defend Himself from the attack of others who counted the Lord as their enemy, but still He accepted all the arrangements made by Mahārāja Yudhiṣṭhira because He could not disobey the King, who was His elder cousin. The Lord plays the part of a subordinate in His transcendental sporting, and thus sometimes He puts Himself in the care of Yaśodāmātā for His protection in His so-called helplessness of childhood. That is the transcendental #i#līlā#/i#, or pastime of the Lord. The basic principle for all transcendental exchanges between the Lord and His devotees is exhibited to enjoy a transcendental bliss for which there is no comparison, even up to the level of #i#brahmānanda#/i#.
