150 Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead

they were great scholars in Vedic knowledge and that they took to Krsna’s
transcendental vibration and rejected all branches of Vedic knowledge.
Even the River Yamuna, being desirous to embrace the lotus feet of Krsna
after hearing the transcendental vibration of His flute, broke her fierce
waves to flow very nicely with lotus flowers in her hands, just to present
flowers to Mukunda with deep feeling.

The scorching heat of the autumn sunshine was sometimes intolerable,
and therefore the clouds in the sky appeared in sympathy above Krsna
and Balarama and Their boy friends while They engaged in blowing Their
flutes. The clouds served as a soothing umbrella over Their heads just to
make friendship with Krsna. The wanton aborigine girls also became fully
satisfied when they smeared their faces and breasts with the dust of
Vrndavana, which was reddish from the touch of Krsna’s lotus feet. The
aborigine girls had very full breasts, and they were also very lusty, but
when their lovers felt their breasts, they were not very satisfied. When
they came out into the midst of the forest, they saw that while Krsna was
walking, some of the leaves and creepers of Vrndavana turned reddish
from the kunkuma powder which fell from His lotus feet. His lotus feet
were held by the gopis on their breasts, which were also smeared with
kunkuma powder, but when Krsna travelled in the Vrndavana forest with
Balarama and His boy friends, the reddish powder fell on the ground of
the Vrndavana forest. So the lusty aborigine girls, while looking toward
Krsna playing His flute, saw the reddish kuikuma on the ground and
immediately took it and smeared it over their faces and breasts. In this way
they became fully satisfied, although they were not satisfied when their
lovers touched their breasts. All material lusty desires can be immediately
satisfied if one comes in contact with Krsna consciousness.

Another gopi began to praise the unique position of Govardhana Hill in
this way: “How fortunate is this Govardhana Hill, for it is enjoying the
association of Lord Krsna and Balarama who are accustomed to walk on it.
Thus Govardhana is always in touch with the lotus feet of the Lord. And
because Govardhana Hill is so obliged to Lord Krsna and Balarama, it is
supplying different kinds of fruits, roots and herbs, as well as very pleasing
crystal water from its lakes, in presentation to the Lord.” The best presen-
tation offered by Govardhana Hill, however, was newly grown grass for
the cows and calves. Govardhana Hill knew how to please the Lord by
pleasing His most beloved associates, the cows and the cowherd boys.

Another gopi said that everything appeared wonderful when Krsna and
Balarama travelled in the forest of Vrndavana playing Their flutes and
making intimate friendship with all kinds of moving and nonmoving living
