Commentary

Rädhä notices that all the hairs on Kṛṣṇa’s body are standing on end. She is astonished to see the wonderful way his skin-pores become erect with pleasure. He is extraordinarily agitated by the expectation of engaging in love-games. On meeting Rädhä, Kṛṣṇa’s excitement mounts, along with his absorption in thoughts of kissing and other activities suitable in a performance of the erotic arts. Rädhä is beholding the aura of Kṛṣṇa’s wonderful body, enhanced by the lustre of his sparkling jewellery.
