Brahma Vaivarta Purana
The Wedding of Sri Radha-Krsna
ENGLISH TRANSLATION
82.Why are some dear to the Supreme Lord and some not dear to Him? As they render service to Him, He grants His mercy to them accordingly. 83.You have the power to transform blade of grass into a mountain and a mountain into a blade of grass. Therefore You are equally kind to the competent and the incompetent, to the husband and to the wife. 84.O Lord, You are reclining on this couch and I am standing before You. This moment of Our conversation is like a hundred yugas. I cannot measure the time We have now spent together. 85.Please place Your lotus feet on My head and breast. Please extinguish the fire of separation that burns in My heart. 86.My glance at once fell on Your lotus feet. Only with a great effort am I able to pull My eyes from Your lotus feet and gaze at the rest of Your transcendental form. 87.Gazing, one by one, on each limb, My eyes finally rest on Your lotus face. I have no power to pull them to any other place. 88.Hearing Radha’s words, Lord Krsna smiled and spoke to Her the truthful and auspicious philosophy of the Sruti and smrti sastras. 89.Sri Krsna said: Beloved, for whatever happens to anyone in any place or any lifetime there is nothing to lament. I have already explained this to You. 90.O beautiful one, please wait for a moment. When the proper time comes I will fulfil Your desire and make You happy.
