CommentaryRädhä might say, “Kṛṣṇa, I cannot give you punishment. You have other lovers who are dearer than I. Go and beg from them.” With this apprehension, Kṛṣṇa says, “My beloved, you are my perfect and complete adornment. I am fortunate in all respects only when I am decorated by you. To say nothing of external ornaments, you are the very foundation of my life. You are my prana! Without you I cannot even live. So where is the question of other lovers? “You are the incomparable treasure in the ocean of my material existence. As one considers himself successful upon attaining a wonderful jewel from the ocean, I feel that my life is successful, having found the jewel of a lover like you. Therefore, always remain favourably disposed to me – my heart continually strives only for this. All my endeavours are simply for the sake of receiving your favour.” |
