ENGLISH TRANSLATION
1.Sri Narayana Rsi said: After seeing all of Goloka, the joyful demigods again approached the first gate to Sri Radha’s palace. 2.The gate had two pillars of splendid jewels and great doors of priceless diamonds, topaz, and other jewels. At that gate the demigods saw peerless Virabhanu,... 3. ...who, wearing yellow garments and a jewel crown decorated with jewel ornaments, sat on a jewel throne. 5.Then, speaking to the gatekeeper Virabhanu, the demigods cheerfully asked permission to enter the very wonderful gate. 6.Without hesitating, the gatekeeper said to the great demigods, “Without Lord Krsna’s permission, I cannot allow you to enter.” 7.Then the gatekeeper sent some servants to Lord Krsna’s abode. O sage, when they returned with Lord Krsna’s permission, the gatekeeper allowed the demigods to enter. 8.After thanking the gatekeeper, the demigods proceeded to the second gate, which, very beautiful, wonderful, and pleasing to the heart, was even greater than the first . 9.O Narada, at that gate they saw handsome Candrabhana, who was dark and youthful, who held a golden staff,... 10. ...who sat decorated with golden ornaments, seated on a jewel throne, and very glorious in the company of five hundred thousand gopas.
