Sri Radha-Krsna-samvada

A Conversation of Sri Radha and Sri Krsna

Chapter 6: Verse 261-270

ENGLISH TRANSLATION 261.O Parvati, please go to Mount Kailasa with your husband and sons. At the proper time you will execute the mission I have given you. 262.As I have said, you will take birth as a partial incarnation. You will not be accompanied by Ganesa, who is the lord of the great and the small. 263.-264.Bowing down before Lord Krsna, the demigods happily returned to their homes. Then, bowing again before Lord Krsna and before Laksmi and Sarasvati, they went, eager to execute their mission, to the earth. Then Lord Krsna described Sri Radha’s mission, a mission beyond what the demigods can attain. 265.Lord Krsna said to Sri Radha: Accompanied by the many gopas and gopis I have already named, please go to King Vrsabhanu’s home. 266.Beloved, first I will go to Vasudeva’s home in Mathura, and then, on the pretext of fearing Kamsa, I will go to Gokula, where You will be. 267.Radha bowed down before Lord Krsna. Tormented with the thought of being separated from Her love, She wept, Her eyes now red lotus flowers, again and again. 268.She began to go and then She returned. Again and again and again and again She left, returned, and gazed and gazed at Lord Krsna’s face. 269.With the cakora birds of Her unblinking eyes saintly Radha drank the nectar moonlight of Lord Krsna’s face. 270.Seven times the supreme goddess Radha circumambulated Lord Krsna. Seven times She bowed down and respectfully stood before Him.
