Tallks Between the Lord and Rāmānanda Rāva
ဘိဒ
PURPORT
Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī and the  gopīs  are not interested in their personal happiness derived from association with Kṛṣṇa. Rather, they become happy by seeing one another associate with Kṛṣṇa. In this way their dealings are further nourished by love of Godhead, and seeing this, Krṣna is very pleased.

sahaja gopira prema,—nahe prākṛta kāma kāma-kriḍā-sāmye tāra kahi 'kāma'-nāma
SYNONYMS
sahaja  —natural;  gopīra  —of the  gopīs ;  prema  —love of Godhead;  nahe  —is not;  prākṛta  —material;  kāma  —lust;  kāma-krīḍā  —lusty affairs;  sāmye  —in appearing equal to;  tāra  —of such activities;  kahi  —l speak;  kāma-nāma  —the name “lust.”
TRANSLATION
“It is to be noted that the natural characteristic of the gopīs is to love the Supreme Lord. Their lusty desire is not to be compared to material lust. Nonetheless, because their desire sometimes appears to resemble material lust, their transcendental love for Kṛṣṇa is sometimes described as lust.
PURPORT
Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Țhākura says that material lust should never be attributed to Krṣṇa, who is full of transcendental knowledge. Material lust cannot be engaged in the service of the Lord, for it is applicable to materialists, not to Krṣṇa. Only  prema , or love of Godhead, is applicable for the satisfaction of Krṣṇa.  Prema  is full service rendered unto the Lord. The lusty affairs of the  gopīs  actually constitute the topmost love of Godhead because the  gopīs  never act for their own personal satisfaction. They are simply pleased by engaging other  gopīs  in the service of the Lord. The  gopīs  derive more transcendental pleasure from indirectly engaging other  gopīs  in the service of Krṣṇa than from engaging in His service themselves. That is the difference between material lust and love of Godhead. Lust applies to the material world, and love of Godhead applies only to Krṣṇa.
