He has countless very humble devotees. He makes them proud with the unmatched beauty of His slightly rose-tipped eyes and sweet lips. My mind is repeatedly kissing That Mur\u00e2ri\u2019s lotus like face. 85.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

arlier Sri Lil\u00e2shuk <\/span>had prayed \u2013<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“O Krishna! When will I get to see Your lotus-like face with Your rosy lips that are always lit up with soft smiles? When will I get to see Your face that is twice as alluring due to Your restless half-open beautiful large eyes and due to the blissful serene song of the flute<\/span>?\u201d \u2013 (KK.44.)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Srila Krishnad\u00e2s Kavir\u00e2j Gosw\u00e2mi says Sri Lil\u00e2shuk is a devotee in the sweet mood. He is once again eager to relish Sri Krishna\u2019s sweetness and this verse reveals His great temptation. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

My mind is repeatedly kissing the lotus face of Mur\u00e2ri. My eyes are like the honeybees. They are relishing the honey of His beautiful lotus-face. Srimad-Bh\u00e2gavatam tells us that the devotees relish the beauty of every part of Sri Bhagav\u00e2n\u2019s body. When Sri Krishna and Baladev entered King Kamsa\u2019s arena, They very much enchanted the residents of Mathura with Their beauty. Sri Shukadevmuni has described how they relished it with delighted eyes \u2013<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“The devotees of Mathura drank in Sri Krishna and Baladev\u2019s beauty with their eyes. It was as if they licked Them with their tongues, drew in Their fragrance with noses and embraced Them with their arms.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

–<\/span> <\/span><\/span><\/span>(Srimad-Bh\u00e2gavatam10.43.21.)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In the same way, Sri Lil\u00e2shuk too is drinking Sri Krishna\u2019s sweet beauty with his eyes and relishing it in his mind. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sri Bhagav\u00e2n destroys the false pride of His devotee. If He finds us taking pride in wealth or body, He snatches them to rid us of our false ego. On the other hand, He strengthens the pride of our siddha deha.<\/em> We should feel proud of our manjari-<\/em>status. Then He intoxicates us with His beauty and sweetness. Therefore, such \u2018true pride\u2019 is welcome.<\/span><\/p>\n

How is Sri Krishna\u2019s sweet beauty?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

His lips are sweet. His face is as beautiful as a lotus. His eyes are slightly rosy at the corners. He is casting compassionate glances all around. With such priceless bounties, He is enhancing the pride of his innumerable surrendered devotees and the Brajavadhus<\/em>.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“After performing s\u00e2dhan\u00e2<\/em> for thousands of life-times, one proudly feels, \u2018I am V\u00e2sudev\u2019s servant\u2019. Such a surrendered soul delivers everyone.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>– (Itih\u00e2s Samuchchay)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Srimat Jiva Gosw\u00e2mip\u00e2d has quoted this verse in Bhakti-Sandarbha and has written \u2013 <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“Forget performing meticulous bhajan<\/em>. If we simply feel, \u2018I am Sri Bhagav\u00e2n\u2019s servant\u2019 \u2013 it is enough to gain prem-bhakti<\/em><\/strong>.<\/em>\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Srimat Rupa Gosw\u00e2mip\u00e2d has written –<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“This world is full of attractive objects. Nevertheless, I desire solely one Object \u2013 Govinda Who sports on the banks of K\u00e2lindi. The wise call this \u2018pride\u2019.\u201d \u2013 (Ujjwal-Neelmani14.19)<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The Brajadevis<\/em> congratulate such pride.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“During <\/span><\/span>Purva-r<\/span><\/span>\u00e2<\/span><\/span>g<\/span><\/span><\/em>, a <\/span><\/span>Vrajab\u00e2l\u00e2<\/em><\/span><\/span> failed in her attempts to obtain a date with Govinda. She felt humble and considered herself unworthy of Him. She knew the fourth phase of the moon brings dishonor (Lord Ganesh had cursed the Moon-god since he had made fun of him). Therefore, she prayed \u2013 “O Moon, you who romance with the stars at night! O fourth phase of the moon! O enhancer of passion! O Moon-god ! I worship you. Please bless me that there may a scandal involving me with Krishna, never mind if it is false. I will feel proud that the people think I am K\u00e2nh\u00e2\u2019s sweetheart.\u201d <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Sri Bhatta Gosw\u00e2mip\u00e2d has explained \u2018muhur-mur\u00e2rer-madhura-adharoshtham mukh\u00e2mbujan chumbati m\u00e2nasam me<\/em><\/strong>\u2019 in a different manner. He says,<\/span> Sri Lil\u00e2shuk has seen Sri Krishna and admitted joyously that His lotus-face was kissing his mind repeatedly. This means that Sri Krishna\u2019s beautiful face has attracted and hypnotized him. It may also mean that Sri Krishna\u2019s sweet face is deep-seated in his mind and it is experiencing the joy of being kissed. Sri Lil\u00e2shuk has equalized his mood with that of a Gopi, so he is able to gain this experience. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How is Sri Krishna\u2019s lotus like face?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This means \u2018he is making innumerable devotees proud with His sparkling eyes that have rosy corners.\u2019 His lotus like face has sweet lips. In fact, His lips are so sweet that they have obliterated all sweet objects by their presence.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Srila Chaitanya d\u00e2s Gosw\u00e2mip\u00e2d has written: Sri Lil\u00e2shuk is ecstatic since he has Sri Krishna\u2019s darshan<\/em>. He is pouring ras <\/em>with <\/em>his lips. My mind is repeatedly kissing Murari Sri Krishna\u2019s lotus like face since it is looking gorgeous with its sweet lips. He is forcing my mind to behave like this, because He has rose-tipped eyes that indicate that they are full of anur\u00e2g<\/em>. 85.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
