Life is difficult only without Krsna

By Sacinandana Swami

As Krsna displays His attractive three-fold bending form, His left side stretches up broad and straight, without showing the three lines on His belly. His right heel is raised, and His left foot appears to be kissing the earth. His well-shaped left knee is slightly contracted, and His waist is gently curved. His garland and thin caddar are swinging to the left side. It is very pleasant to see His arm pit as He effortlessly holds His strong left arm aloft. ... The pollen fell on His right cheek and He looked so beautiful! ... Krsna smiled so kindly, and Vrajavasis just looked. But one thoughtful Vrajavasis said: The ankle-bells who warble like swans the whole day now are silent- I think they are absorbed in meditation. ... Krsna has such a variety of moods -- and all of a sudden here He takes the flute and makes the sound. Vrajavasis burst into laughter - He is making music now. Madhumangala only is worried, "It is no time for concert - concentrate on your work, otherwise Giriraj by hearing will melt and flow over your head. Because your flute mountains into rivers and rivers into stones." ... We could hear many more discussions about this. But I wanted to summarize why this lila has such a supreme place in Krsna's pastimes. It is because all the devotees were together and could exchange their rasas with Krsna at the same time.
