Text 111] The Opulence and Sweetness of Krsna 291

TRANSLATION

“Krsna wears a pearl necklace that appears like a chain of white ducks
around His neck. The peacock feather in His hair appears like a rainbow, and
His yellow garments appear like lightning in the sky. Krsna appears like a
newly risen cloud, and the gopis appear like newly grown grains in the field.
Constant rains of nectarean pastimes fall upon these newly grown grains, and
it seems that the gopis are receiving beams of life from Krsna, exactly as
grains receive life from the rains.

“‘The Supreme Personality of Godhead, Krsna, is full in all six opulences, in-
cluding His attractive beauty, which engages Him in conjugal love with the
gopis. Such sweetness is the quintessence of His qualities. Sukadeva Gosvami,
the son of Vyasadeva, has described these pastimes of Krsna throughout
Srimad-Bhagavatam. Hearing the descriptions, the devotees become mad
with love of God.”
