Madhukaṇ ṭ ha said “Previously due to our bad karma, we traveled around, living from day to day. Hearing of Kṛ ṣ ṇ a meeting the Yadus (at Mathurā ), we almost gave up our lives. Much later, hearing of Kṛ ṣ ṇ a’s return to Vraja we desired to go there quickly. Hearing that Kṛ ṣ ṇ a and his Vraja followers had disappeared from mortal eyes, we desired to enter the ocean to give up our lives. Then, taking the authority of Nā rada’s orders, maintaining our lives, we came to Vraja. We fainted on seeing that place as the abode Kṛ ṣ ṇ a’s pastimes. Waking, we had suddenly entered into Goloka without understanding how. ”

Everyone said in astonishment “Then what happened? ”

Madhukaṇ ṭ ha said “Having seen the lotus feet of the Lord, having been brought back to life, we have had the auspicious opportunity of completing the first part of Gopā la-campu in order to satisfy you. What other topic should I speak? ”

Having said this, he spoke this verse as a conclusion.

“O Nanda! Your son is most worthy of worship among the best among the best. His mind is bound in friendship in many ways to your various friends. You have attained from Kṛ ṣ ṇ a an abode, beauty, power, and the sweetness of the highest prema-- rarer than any conceivable object in the hearts of Ś iva or Brahmā. ”

Saying this he spoke to his brother:

Just as iron becomes gold by contact with touchstone, our birth in a reciter’s family has become purified by the fame of Kṛ ṣ ṇ a.

O friend! How can I describe the mercy of the Lord? How can I speak of our great fortune? First we meditated on Goloka, then we entered the inner chambers furnished with seven enclosures, saw Kṛ ṣ ṇ a along with Balarā ma in the assembly of Nanda, and he then gave us the order to recite his pastimes here.

Seeing Kṛ ṣ ṇ a’s tender face, the two boys could not look again because their hairs stood on end with force. Their bodies trembled intensely, and they became stunned. At total loss, they fell on the ground. They then recovered their former condition and stood with unblinking eyes like devatā s. Folding their hands, attractive as lotuses with many freshly opened petals, and filling those hands with fresh, attractive flowers covered with their tears, Snigdhakaṇ ṭ ha and Madhukaṇ ṭ ha in conclusion prayed for a boon pleasing to the senses and the Lord.

O enemy of Kaṁ sa! Let our speech be your pastimes! Let our ears hear your pastimes. Let our hands serve you continually! Let your hearts long for your pastimes! Let our heads bow down to the objects of Gokula! Let our eyes steadily see all the dear people of Vraja. Let our senses and organs serve nothing else.

Calling repeatedly to the two boys who had spread bhakti, Nanda, with a weak heart and full of joy, brought them near, and, thinking them worthy of respect, made them sit down. By honoring them he gave happiness to the assembly.

The king of Goloka personally gave them great quantities of tilaka, unguents for the upper body, his jeweled ornaments, the best betel nut, and excellent clothing. Others gave swift horses, all types of servants and charming household articles. He then addressed them.

“From today, I will protect you two boys. Yaś odā will protect your mother and I will protect your father. ”

Ah! The people of the assembly raised a clamor of victory cries, and, going to the outer room, showered excellent treasures on them. Seeing that, persons still in the assembly went to that place full of treasures and gave gifts to anyone they met there.

[349] tad evaṁ kathā -sā tau datta-sā tau madhukaṇ ṭ ha-snigdhakaṇ ṭ hau sadaiva labdha-kṛ ṣ ṇ opakaṇ ṭ hau ca tad-vinā savilokanotkaṇ ṭ hau pratikṣ aṇ am amanda-paramā nandam anuvindamā nā v eva virā jete |

Having completed their recitation, Madhukaṇ ṭ ha and Snigdhakaṇ ṭ ha, giving happiness to all, remained always at Kṛ ṣ ṇ a’s side. When not with him, they desired to see him, and experienced the highest, radiant bliss at every moment.

Though at the beginning of the work, because of fear of difficulty in understanding everything, Parjanya was not mentioned, at the assembly giving glory to Goloka, Parjanya, the best of all people, giving happiness to all his people, was seated among the respectable members in pure dress, showering all happiness like a cloud. His excellent wife Varī yasī shone in the gathering in the inner chambers. Uddhava was also there, giving joy to all. How can one describe the happiness of everyone present there?

Please taste this secret:

Vṛ ndā vana is like a lake. Among all the gopī s equal to lotuses, Rā dhā, the chief gopī, is most excellent, continually beautiful like a divine water lily. As a bee plays in the lotuses, Kṛ ṣ ṇ a, wandering about, using the other gopī s as steps to attain her, produces the most intense pastimes with her using all arts.

Gopā la-campu was written in the Saṁ vat year 1645 or Ś ā ka era 1510 (1588 AD) by some insignificant jī va who took shelter of Vṛ ndā vana. May Vṛ ndā vana produce perfection in this work.

I have indicated most of the pastimes of Kṛ ṣ ṇ a one after the other. May the great souls as they please, according to their taste, partake of this work!
