Text 36] The Lord’s Inconceivable Behavior 195
TRANSLATION

““‘My dear friend, where is Krsna, who is like the moon rising from the
ocean of Maharaja Nanda’s dynasty? Where is Krsna, His head decorated with
a peacock feather? Where is He? Where is Krsna, whose flute produces such a
deep sound? Oh, where is Krsna, whose bodily luster is like the luster of the
blue indranila jewel? Where is Krsna, who is so expert in rasa dancing? Oh,
where is He who can save My life? Kindly tell Me where to find Krsna, the
treasure of My life and best of My friends. Feeling separation from Him, |!
hereby condemn Providence, the shaper of My destiny.’
