Later prayed to the lion: “O Banaraja, my calf is hungry. I am ready to come back after feeding my calf and become your diet. On this the lion let Bahula go but said to Bahula: “If you do not come, I will remain hungry. On this Bahula cow took the oath of truth and religion. Then Shri Krishna, taking the form of a lion, let the Bahula cow go. Bahula cow came back to the forest after giving milk to the calf to become a lion’s morsel. Then pleased with Bahula’s truthfulness, Shri Krishna appeared in His real form and said: “O Bahula, you have passed the test!
