CommentaryRädhä tells Kṛṣṇa, “My darling who wears a yellow shawl, decorate my ears with these ornaments, elegant as the trap of Kämadeva. My ears prevent the deer of my eyes from bounding away. O delight of my heart, adorn my ears with these ornaments that bewilder the hearts of young men.” This verse describes how Rädhä’s eyes are so wide that they reach around to her ears. The comparison with a deer has been made to shed light on their restlessness and their rapid angular movements. |
