Shri Kṛṣṇa is distraught in his condition of separation from Rädhä. When a sphürti of Rädhä suddenly became visible, Kṛṣṇa began to speak as if she were directly before him, addressing her, “O slender-waisted woman” (tanvi). “O Rädhä, I abandoned you to enjoy pastimes with other vraja-gopés. Your heart is now polluted by jealousy towards them because you consider yourself superior. Your heart is depressed because you are superimposing faults upon me. You have left this place to go somewhere else. What can I do about that? If I knew where you had gone, I would touch your feet, pacify you and beg for forgiveness.” |
