She advised Krishna to open his mouth so she could clean out the soil. Krishna rejected. At last, when he opened his mouth, Yashoda saw the whole universe inside. She saw the 9 planets, twirling stars, and heavenly visuals. She was entranced. Be that as it may, abruptly, the grandiose vision evaporated, and all she recalled was her child having eaten mud.
100 Kings caught by Jarasandh

Sometime later, Krishna propelled his cousin Yudhisthir to conduct the Rajasuya yagna. Any way for its prosperity, he would need to vanquish the entirety of Bharatvarhsa’s lords including Jarasandh.
Krishna, and Yudhisthir siblings Bhim and Arjun went to Jarasandh and tested him. With the direction of Krishna, Bhim had the option to crush him at a wrestling match, and even execute Jarasandh.

Kalyavan thought he saw Krishna dozing inside the cavern when truly it was Muchukund. At the point when Kalyavan kicked Muchkund thinking he was Krishna, the lord arose and the force which had gathered inside his eyes (since he had them shut for a long time while he rested) consumed Kalyavan to remain. Clarifying the occasions and what his identity was, Krishna expressed gratitude toward Muchukund for executing Kalyavan.
