Verse Text

yathā vā – rādhā śāntir ivonnidraṁ nirnimeṣekṣaṇaṁ ca mām | kurvatī dhyāna-lagnaṁ ca vāsayaty adri-kandare ||69||

Translation

Another example: Rādhā is like śānta-rasa. She makes Me sleepless; she makes My eyes unblinking; she makes Me live in a mountain case, absorbed in meditation.

Purport (Nectar of Devotion)

There is the following statement by Kṛṣṇa Himself: “Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī has become peace personified for Me. Because of Her, I now go without sleep. I stare constantly without blinking My eyes, and I am always in a meditative mood. Because of Her I have even made My home in the cave of a mountain!” This is an example of conjugal love mixed with neutral love, but there is no incompatibility.
