As the people of the world were worshiping Kali-yuga, Lord Gaura taught them to worship instead the Govardhana Hill of pure devotional service. That hill has nine parts, beginning with the part of hearing the Lord's glories. On that hill are many kalpa-taru trees whose fruits are the five rasas.

The grass on that hill is the devotees’ bodily hairs standing erect in ecstasy. The streams on that hill are the tears that flow from the devotees’ yearning hearts. The gentle breezes blowing by that hill are the devotees’ trembling in ecstasy. Using their own senses as the paraphernalia of worship, the people woprshiped that Govardhana Hill of devotional service. At the end they attained their desired boon, the jewels of ecstatic spiritual love.

As the clouds of lust showered torrents of rain and the thunderbolts of anger fell, the people of the world became afraid. As hailstones of greed an illusion fell and a sharp hurricane wind of envy and other vices blew, the people's peacefulness flew away.

When the people took shelter under that hill, their suffering and lamentation fled far away. Their fear of Kali-yuga was broken into pieces. The embarrassed King Indra of Kali-yuga was defeated and he spoke many prayers before Lord Krsna’s lotus feet.

Now humbled, he asked forgiveness. He was an individual soul taking shelter of the Supreme Lord. He said, “O Lord, I praise Your glories. Please do not punish me. You are the Supreme Truth. This I know for certain."

Then Lord Gauranga gave mercy to him. That is why Kali-yuga is known as a fortunate and glorious time. In this world to this day Kali-yuga is famous in this way. Caitanya dasa says: Yuga after yuga, manifesting this pastime like the lifting of Govardhana Hill, the Lord delivers the fallen souls.
