vamsi-svanair gopa-vadhu-ganahrtir
gopi-hrte rasa-maha-mahotsavah
rasotsavad vanchita-purtir isitus
tat-purtito ‘bhut sukha-sambhrtam jagat

 

The gopis were enchanted by the sounds of Krsna’s flute. Because the gopis were enchanted the great great rasa-dance festival was performed. Because rasa-dance festival was performed the Lord’s desires were fulfilled. Because the Lord’s desires were fulfilled, the universe became full of joy.

gabhiro ‘pi sthira-matir api ksanti-purnah su-silah
sri-krsno ‘yam sukha-maya-vapuh sa-trapo nirvikarah
sri-radhayah pranaya-vivasas tan-mukhaloka-jatair

Although Lord Krsna is very steady-minded, patient, shy, and humble, although He is the greatest exemplar of impeccable good character, although His transcendental form is by nature full of all transcendental bliss, and although all of these good qualities are eternally present within Him and they never decay or lessen, nevertheless, when He sees the face of Sri Radha, He becomes beside Himself with love for Her. He trembles with love for Her and wanders aimlessly as a madman.

The beautiful-eyebrowed girls of Vraja worship Lord Krsna, offering their perspiration, their hairs standing up in ecstasy, the nectar of their respectful speeches, the fragrance of their bodies, and their gentle smiles as padya water, arghya water, acamaniya water, incense, and flowers. The nectar of their embraces and amorous pastimes is the offering of foodstuff they place before the Lord, and the nectar of their kisses is their offering of betelnuts.
