PURPORT
This verse from  Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam  (10.32.22) was spoken by Śrī Kṛṣṇa Himself when He returned to the  gopīs  upon hearing their songs of separation.
TEXT 181
তবে যে দেখিয়ে গোপীর নিজদেহে প্রীত । সেহো ত’ কৃষ্ণের লাগি, জানিহ নিশ্চিত ॥ ১৮১ ॥
tabe ye dekhiye gopīra nija-dehe prīta seho ta’ kṛṣṇera lāgi, jāniha niścita
SYNONYMS
tabe —now;  ye —whatever;  dekhiye —we see;  gopīra —of the  gopīs ;  nija-dehe —in their own bodies;  prīta —affection;  seho —that;  ta’ —certainly;  kṛṣṇera lāgi —for Lord Kṛṣṇa;  jāniha —know;  niścita —for certain.
TRANSLATION
Now whatever affection we see the  gopīs  show in their own bodies, know it for certain to be only for the sake of Lord Kṛṣṇa.
PURPORT
The selfless love of Godhead exhibited by the  gopīs  cannot have any parallel. We should not, therefore, misunderstand the carefulness of the  gopīs  in their personal decoration. The  gopīs  dressed themselves as beautifully as possible, just to make Kṛṣṇa happy by seeing them. They had no ulterior desires. They dedicated their bodies, and everything they possessed, to the service of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, taking for granted that their bodies were meant for His enjoyment. They dressed themselves on the understanding that Kṛṣṇa would be happy by seeing and touching them.
