God always does welfare of his devotees, hence he remembered Hanuman ji and immediately Hanuman ji came to Dwarka. Got to know why Shri Krishna had called. He also knew that both Shri Krishna and Shri Ram are one and the same, hence he did not go directly to the royal court but went to the garden to do some curiosity. They started plucking the fruits from the trees, ate some, threw some away, uprooted the trees, broke some and made the garden deserted. It was not Hanuman ji's intention to pluck and throw away the fruit, he was just curious about the signs of Shri Krishna. The news reached Shri Krishna that some monkey had destroyed Rajodyan.
Shri Krishna called the army chief. "Said, you go with the army and capture that monkey."
Shri Krishna was smiling in his mind. The army chief immediately reached the garden along with the army and challenged Hanuman ji and said, "Why are you destroying the garden? Why are you plucking fruits? Come on, Shri Krishna is calling you."
Hanuman ji said to the army chief, "I do not know any Krishna. I am a servant of Shri Ram. Go, tell me, I will not come."
The army chief got angry and said, "If you don't go, I will catch you and take you away."
Hanumanji caught the army chief by his tail and threw him towards the royal palace. The army chief reached the court and told the Lord, "He is not an ordinary monkey. I cannot catch him and bring him back."
Shri Krishna sent a message to Hanuman ji that Shri Ram was calling him and ordered Sudarshan Chakra, "O Sudarshan ji! Stay at the door."
No one should be allowed to come inside without permission and if anyone tries to come inside without permission, you should kill them. Shri Krishna thought that Hanuman ji could not stop even for a moment after hearing the message of Shri Ram. Sudarshan stopped them at the door of the court and said, "It is forbidden to enter without permission."
Hanuman ji cannot tolerate delay when Shri Ram is calling. Hanuman ji caught Sudarshan and pressed it in his teeth like cardamom and kept it in his mouth. Shri Krishna ji sat on the throne in the form of Lord Ram. Seeing Shri Ram sitting on the throne, Hanuman ji bowed down at the feet of Shri Krishna. Shri Krishna hugged Hanuman ji. Shri Krishna asked Hanuman ji, "Hanuman! How did you come inside? Did no one stop you?"
Hanumanji replied, "Lord, Sudarshan had stopped me, I thought there would be a delay in your darshan, so I did not quarrel with him, I kept it in my mouth."
Saying this, Hanuman ji took out the Sudarshan Chakra from his mouth and placed it at the feet of the Lord. Sudarshan Chakra's pride was shattered. This is what Shri Krishna wanted. Shri Krishna hugged Hanuman ji to his heart, there was a heart to heart conversation and Shri Krishna sent Hanuman ji away.
God does not allow pride among his devotees and those close to him. If Shri Krishna had not removed the pride of Sudarshan Chakra with the help of Hanuman ji, then Sudarshan ji could not have remained close to God. Only he can stay close to God who becomes free from “I” and knows “Neither” i.e. knows “Namah”. The meaning of Namah is that I am nothing, rather God is everywhere and I bow to that God again and again. Therefore, the first step on the path of devotion is a life without ego and pride.
