shri-radhovaca
yat-praptaye vidhi-hara-pramukhas tapanti
vahnau tapah paramaya nija-yoga-ritya
dattah shukah kapila asurir angira yat-
padaravinda-makaranda-rajah sprishanti

tam krishnam adi-purusham paripurna-devam
lilavataram ajam arti-haram jananam
bhu-bhuri-hara-bharanaya satam shubhaya
jatam vinindasi katham sakhi durvinite[1]

Shri Radha said: Foolish friend, why do You criticize Lord Krishna, the original and perfect Supreme Personality of Godhead who, to enjoy pastimes, remove the earth's burden, and bring auspiciousness to the devotees, has descended to the earth, to attain whom Brahma Shiva and all the demigods perform great yoga austerities, and the honey pollen of whose lotus feet Dattatreya, Shukadeva, Kapila, Asuri, and Angira touch?
