Commentary

When memories of her pastimes with Kṛṣṇa awakened, Rädhä’s mind became unsteady. In this state, she revealed the content of her heart to her companion for the sake of meeting with Çyämasundara.

Shri Rädhä is referred to as nidhuvana-nägaré because she is also expert in sensuality. May this description of her passionate games and loving thirst for Shri Kṛṣṇa bestow auspiciousness upon all.

This sixth song of Shri Géta-govinda is entitled Akleça-keçava-kuïjara-tilaka. The whole song is permeated with vipralambha-çåìgära-rasa. The metre is laya chanda.
