Shri Krishn dancing on Kaliya Naag's head:Kaliya was the poisonous Snake(Naga) living in the Yamuna River, in Vrindavan. Once Krishna and herdboys were playing ball, and while playing Krishna climbed up the Kadamba tree and hung over the river bank, the ball fell into the river and Krishna jumped after it. Kaliya rose up with his hundred and ten hoods vomiting poison and wrapped himself around Krishna's body. Krishn became so huge that Kaliya had to release him. So Krishna saved himself from every attack, and when he saw the Brij Wasis were so much afraid he suddenly sprang into Kaliya's head and assumed the weight of the whole universe, and danced on the naga's heads, beating him with his feet. This leela is very melodious and unique because no one has ever danced in a way Shri Krishna danced on Kaliya Naag's head while Kaliya Naag was moving to save his life. The same Beautiful leela is depicted on the outer wall of Prem Mandir.
