TEXT 40
गते मयि युवां लब्ध्वा वरं मत्सदृशं सुतम् । 
  ग्राम्यान् भोगान्भुञ्जाथां युवां प्राप्तमनोरथौ ॥४०॥
gate mayi yuvām labdhvā  
 varam mat-sadṛśam sutam  
 grāmyān bhogān abhuñjāthām  
 yuvām prāpta-manorathau
gate mayi —after My departure;  yuvām —both of you (husband and wife);  labdhvā —after receiving;  varam —the benediction of (having a son);  mat-sadṛśam —exactly like Me;  sutam —a son;  grāmyān bhogān —engagement in sex;  abhuñjāthām —enjoyed;  yuvām —both of you;  prāpta —having been achieved;  manorathau —the desired result of your aspirations.
TRANSLATION
After you received that benediction and I disappeared, you engaged yourselves in sex to have a son like Me, and I fulfilled your desire.
PURPORT
According to the Sanskrit dictionary  Amara-kośa , sex life is also called  grāmya-dharma , material desire, but in spiritual life this  grāmya-dharma , the material desire for sex, is not very much appreciated. If one has a tinge of attachment for the material enjoyments of eating, sleeping, mating and defending, one is not  niṣkiñcana . But one really should be  niṣkiñcana . Therefore, one should be free from the desire to beget a child like Kṛṣṇa by sexual enjoyment. This is indirectly hinted at in this verse.
