Chapter 27: Verse 201-210

ENGLISH TRANSLATION 201.By learning, from Lord Çiva, the mantra of Your kavaca, Paraçuräma attained perfection at Puñkara-tirtha. It was only then that he was able to kill the demon Kärtavirya. How can You be a human being? 202.When Paraçuräma broke Gaëeça's tusk, the mere sound of Your name brought fear. How can You be a human being? 203.Only to please You did the Supreme Personality of Godhead protect Paraçuräma when I became angry and was about to burn to ashes, How can You be a human being? 204.Lord Kåñëa is Your husband birth after birth and kalpa after kalpa. O mother of the worlds, You followed this vow only for the benefit of the people. 205.-206.O saintly one, three months from now, in the month of Madhu (March-April), on a splendid night, in a beautiful, secluded grove of Våndävana forest, in a graceful räsa-dance circle, You will enjoy happy pastimes with Lord Kåñëa and all the gopis. 207.Destiny has written that You will enjoy these pastimes with Lord Kåñëa on the earth kalpa after kalpa. Who can stop these pastimes? 208.O beautiful one, as I am fortune to be Lord Çiva's companion, so You are fortunate to be Lord Kåñëa's companion. 209.As whiteness is present in milk, as heat is present in fire, as fragrance is present in earth, and as coolness is present in water, so You are always present in Lord Kåñëa. 210.No goddess, human, gandharvi, or räkñasi was or will be fortunate like You.
