KB 10.5.6
On this occasion, the joyous vibrations could be heard in all the pasturing grounds and all the houses. Within and outside of the houses there were varieties of artistic paintings, done with rice pulp, and scented water was sprinkled everywhere, even on the roads and streets. Ceilings and roofs were decorated with different kinds of flags, festoons and green leaves. The gates were made of green leaves and flowers.
Purport (Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura)
The doors, yards and interiors of the houses of Vraja were first scrubbed and then sprinkled with sandalwood and flower-scented water. The doors were decorated with colorful flags and three types of gates: made from garlands, cloth and leaves.
Purport (Jiva Goswami)
The word sam (completely) in two words indicates that the place was cleansed and moistened more than on other days. Caila means small pieces of cloth. Flags were arranged like garlands. The word “was decorated” should be understood. Or sraj can refer to separate flower garlands, placed along with various flags.
