TRANSLATION

O master, if You live abroad all the time, then we cannot look at
Your attractive face whose smiles vanquish all our sufferings. How can we
exist without Your presence?

The Lord, who is very kind to the citizens and the devotees, upon
hearing their speeches, entered the city of Dvaraka and acknowledged all
their greetings by casting His transcendental glance over them.

PURPORT

Lord Krsna’s attraction is so powerful that once being attracted by
Him no one can tolerate separation from Him. Why is this so? Because
we are all eternally related with Him as the sun rays are eternally related
with the sun disc. The sun rays are molecular parts of the solar radiation.
Thus the sun rays and the sun cannot be separated. The separation by the
cloud is temporary and artificial, and as soon as the cloud is cleared. the
sun rays again display their natural effulgence in the presence of the sun.
Similarly, the living entities, who are molecular parts of the whole spirit,
are separated from the Lord by the artificial covering of mdyd, illusory
energy. This illusory energy or the curtain of mayd has to be removed, and
when it is so done, the living entity can see the Lord face to face, and all
his miseries are at once removed. Every one of us wants to remove the
miseries of life, but we do not know how to do it. The solution is given
here, and it rests on us to assimilate it or not.
