All glories to Cintamim and my i n i t i a t ing spir i t ual master, Somagiri. All glories to my instructing spiritual master, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, who wears peacock feathers in His crown. Under the shade of His lotus feet, which are like desire trees, Jayasrz (Radharanz) enjoys the transcendental mellow of an eternal consort.

There is an entity who has the appearance of an adolescent boy, and who is being inundated with desire-tree flowers falling from the fingertips of the damsels of heaven. That boy is completely carefree, situated in transcendental beatitude, as He sends forth waves of sound from His famed flute. He is encircled by thousands of effulgent milk m a i ds, whose garments are becoming loose again and again (from their extreme pleasure at hearing the flute) and wh o are trying to hold them up. That adolescent boy, the pinnacle of munificence, places liberation from birth and death into the hands of His surrendered devotees.

We worship that dark bluish young boy, in whom cu l m i n ate the prin cipal stimuli for amorous love, who causes Radha to become languid with the beauty o f His dancing sidelong glances, and who in turn becomes languid with l o v e when Srz Radha and Her friends cast th eir si d elong glances at Him. That boy s beauty, like waves of nectar, engenders an extreme thirst in the eyes of Radha and Her companions, and, conversely, their nectarous beauty makes Him thi r s ty to see them. He is affectionately worshiped by Radha s wistful glances, and He enjoys loving pastimes with Radha and Her friends on the bank of the Yamuna. We worship that young bluish boy, the source of the god of love, who has attained unchallenged dominion over love's sweetness.
