Three People Who Were Harassed By Family Members Because Of Their Devotion

“The demon harasses the devotee, even though the latter may happen to be his kin. Although Prahlada Maharaja was the son of Hiranyakashipu, he was nonetheless persecuted by his father; although Devaki, the mother of Krishna, was the sister of Kamsa, she and her husband Vasudeva were persecuted only because Krishna was to be born of them.” (Shrila Prabhupada, Bhagavad-gita, 4.8)
