Advaita Acarya said: “ ‘My dear friends, what shall | say? Today | have
received the highest transcendental pleasure. After many, many days,
Lord Krsna is in My house!’ ”’

PURPORT

This is a song composed by Vidyapati. Sometimes the word mdadhava is
misunderstood to refer to Madhavendra Puri. Advaita Acarya was a disciple
of Madhavendra Puri, and consequently some people think that He was refer-
ring to Madhavendra Puri by using the word madhava. But actually this is not
the fact. This song was composed to commemorate the separation of Krsna
from Radharani during Krsna’s absence in Mathura. This song was supposed
to be sung by Srimati Radharani when Krsna returned. It is technically called
Mathura-viraha.
