Verse Text
premṇa eva vilāsatvād vairalyāt sādhakeṣv api |
atra snehādayo bhedā vivicya na hi śaṁsitāḥ ||19||
Translation
Sneha and other advanced stages are the manifestations of prema, but because they are rare, even in those who have practiced bhakti, the distinctions will not be described here. [Note: They are described in the Western Section.]
Purport (Nectar of Devotion)
The affection and the dealings of love that are different branches of the original tree of love precede many varieties of affectionate manifestations that will not be discussed here.
