22 Sri Caitanya-caritamrta [Antya-lila, Ch. 7

TRANSLATION

“The unalloyed love of the gopis and Srimati Radharani is without any trace
of material lust. The criterion of such transcendental love is that its only pur-
pose is to satisfy Krsna.

wounded by pebbles as You roam about on the forest path.’
