“When the cowherd girls and Krsna thus joined together, each girl thought that
Krsna was dearly embracing her alone. To behold this wonderful pastime of the
Lord, the denizens of heaven and their wives, all very eager to see the dance, flew
in the sky in their hundreds of airplanes. They showered flowers and beat sweetly
on drums.”
