If you think Krishna consciousness is just a smooth ride.... well you might want to aim for liberation or the brahmajyoti instead. There are some heavy duty characters hanging around Vrndavan that don't particularly like Krishna and Balarama. They are fond of changing their forms to disguise themselves. When they get close enough to Krishna they go for it. KILL!
Even the demigods get into challenging Krishna. They don't appreciate His personality in Vrndavan. Indra wanted to see the residents drowned and did his best to flood them out of existence.
Same with Brahma. He didn't particularly like a little boy having so much fun and being worshiped in full surrender as if He we God himself.
