"When we remember the past births of Krsna, My dear bumblebee, we are very afraid of Him. In His incarnation as Lord Ramacandra, He acted just like a hunter and unjustly killed His friend Vali. Lusty Surpanakha came to satisfy Ramacandra's desires, but He was so attached to Sitadevi that He cut off Surpanakha's nose. In His incarnation as Vamanadeva, He plundered Bali Maharaja and took all his possessions, cheating him on the pretext of accepting worship from him. Vamanadeva caught Bali Maharaja exactly as one catches a crow. My dear bumblebee, it is not very good to make friends with such a person. I know that once one begins to talk about Krsna, it is very difficult to stop, and I admit that I have insufficient strength to give up talking about Him."
