Text 51] The Lord’s Feelings of Separation 213

TRANSLATION

“There is a solitary garden where Krsna enjoys His pastimes, and in one cor-
ner of a pavilion in that garden, the yogi of My mind, along with his disciples,
practices mystic yoga. Wanting to see Krsna directly, this yogi remains awake
throughout the night, meditating on Krsna who is the Supersoul, uncontami-
nated by the three modes of nature.

TRANSLATION

“When My mind lost the association of Krsna and could no longer see Him,
he became depressed and took up mystic yoga. In the void of separation from
Krsna, he experienced ten transcendental transformations. Agitated by these
transformations, My mind fled, leaving My body, his place of residence,
empty. Thus | am completely in trance.’’

PURPORT

In this verse, the outward activities of the kapdlika mendicants have been de-
scribed, but not their actual life. The kapalika mendicants are tantric materialists
who carry skulls in their hands. They are not Vaisnavas and have nothing to do
with spiritual life. Therefore they are untouchable. Only an outward comparison
