Translation“She puts on bangles, a sash, rings, armlets, necklaces and other ornaments made of spotless white lotus-fibres and freshly sprouted leaves. She is living only in the hope of enjoying union with you.” Commentary“Rädhä has surrounded herself with the fibres of lotus stems and freshly spouted leaves to relieve the burning sensation of käma. Although she is feeble and emaciated, she has held on to her life-airs until now only because she feels happiness in the hope of enjoying amorous pastimes with you. Even now, the ways of your love reside in her life-airs and all the methods of your prema are resonating upon her heart-strings. Her total absorption in sensual union with you is the only cause of her continued existence.” |
