mukunda-sandaraś ana-nirvṛ tendriyaḥ

Translation

Nā rada was honored by Kṛ ṣ ṇ a, who bowed to him. All of Nā rada’s senses were satisfied by his meeting with Kṛ ṣ ṇ a. Thus, having heard the decision of the Lord and having been worshiped by him, Nā rada placed him firmly within his heart and departed through the sky.

 

After their departure, Kṛ ṣ ṇ a offered respects to Nā rada and worshipped him. Nā rada then departed through the sky. He was worshipped with many articles of worship (ā hṛ tā rhaṇ aḥ ). He was also worshipped by all the Yadus. Or he received presents with devotion. Why? All his senses were blissful from directly seeing the Lord who bestows the highest bliss (mukunda), or is most beautiful with teeth like kunda flowers in his mouth. From the bliss of seeing him, he lost control. Or in spite of this, placing the Lord in his heart, because his senses were blissful, he departed to Svarga to sing the Lord’s glories. Why did he go? He had heard the decision of the Lord to go to Yudhiṣ ṭ hira’s place, and Uddhava’s advice.

 

Or hearing about the proper treatment of the bṛ ahmaṇ a (when Bhī ma disguised himself) from Uddhava or from the questions, he departed. Another version has niś ā mya (directly realizing) instead of niś amya. Instead of vyavahṛ tam sometimes vyavasitam is seen.

 

 — — — — — — — —

 

Hearing that his desires concerning the Pā ṇ ḍ avas and the imprisoned kings were satisfied, he left, but was continually thinking of Kṛ ṣ ṇ a in his heart, since his senses were blissful because of dealings with Kṛ ṣ ṇ a who destroys all suffering, even by just seeing him.

As he traveled through the provinces of Ā narta, Sauvī ra, Marudeś a and Vinaś ana, Kṛ ṣ ṇ a crossed rivers and passed mountains, cities, villages, cow pastures and quarries.

 

The provinces were huge, like the ocean. Thus they had to be crossed as one crosses the ocean (tī rthvā ). Or tī rthvā indicates that they crossed rivers. The Lord removed all suffering from the people of those places (hariḥ ). He crossed the rivers and mountains of those places.

Or the places are not mentioned in order. Pā ñ cala is situated before Marudeś a (desert). He bypassed Vinaś ana.

tam upā gatam ā karṇ ya prī to durdarś anaṁ nṛ nā m

ajā ta-ś atrur niragā t sopadhyā yaḥ suhṛ d-vṛ taḥ

Translation

King Yudhiṣ ṭ hira was delighted to hear that the Lord, whom human beings rarely see, had now arrived. Accompanied by his priests and dear associates, the King came out to meet Kṛ ṣ ṇ a.

 

Though Kṛ ṣ ṇ a was rarely seen by living beings, he had come close (upa-ā gatam). Yudhiṣ ṭ hira had a soft, straight-forward heart (ajā ta-ś atruḥ ). With peaceful heart, he was devoid of lust, anger and hatred at all times. Thus he was delighted.

gī ta-vā ditra-ghoṣ eṇ a brahma-ghoṣ eṇ a bhū yasā

abhyayā t sa hṛ ṣ ī keś aṁ prā ṇ ā ḥ prā ṇ am ivā dṛ taḥ

Translation

As songs and musical instruments resounded along with the loud vibration of Vedic hymns, the King, honored by Kṛ ṣ ṇ a, went forth to meet Hṛ ṣ ī keś a, just as the senses go forth to meet the life airs.

Commentary

Hṛ ṣ ī keś a means “having hair which shone. ” Thus from far off, he shone because of his effulgence. Or, he controlled all the senses by prema. Ā dṛ taḥ means respected or worshipped. Yudhiṣ ṭ hira was respected by Kṛ ṣ ṇ a when Kṛ ṣ ṇ a came to his place, got off his chariot etc. The senses which become inactive without the life air, which leaves the body as when fainting, approach the life air when it returns.

dṛ ṣ ṭ vā viklinna-hṛ dayaḥ kṛ ṣ ṇ aṁ snehena pā ṇ ḍ avaḥ

Translation

The heart of King Yudhiṣ ṭ hira melted with affection when he saw his dear friend, Kṛ ṣ ṇ a, after such a long separation, and he embraced the Lord again and again.

Commentary

Kṛ ṣ ṇ a was by his nature attractive to all hearts (kṛ ṣ ṇ am). But he was especially dear to Yudhiṣ ṭ hira. Kṛ ṣ ṇ a was the crest jewel among all his dear friends. And he was seeing him after a long time. Therefore repeatedly he embraced Kṛ ṣ ṇ a since he felt unsatisfied when he stopped.

dorbhyā ṁ pariṣ vajya ramā malā layaṁ

mukunda-gā traṁ nṛ -patir hatā ś ubhaḥ

lebhe parā ṁ nirvṛ tim aś ru-locano

hṛ ṣ yat-tanur vismṛ ta-loka-vibhramaḥ

Translation

The eternal form of Kṛ ṣ ṇ a is the everlasting residence of the goddess of fortune. As soon as King Yudhiṣ ṭ hira embraced him, the King became free of suffering separation and immediately felt the highest bliss. There were tears in his eyes, and his body shook due to ecstasy. He completely forgot that he was living in this material world.

 

sAme

 

In examining the good fortune of Yudhiṣ ṭ hira and others, Ś ukadeva sings using a longer meter in two verses because of his intense prema. Yudhiṣ ṭ hira embraced Kṛ ṣ ṇ a tightly for a long time. “Embracing with the arms” is redundant, but out of bliss it expresses the oneness of the two persons. Lakṣ mī does not remain personally in other abodes since they are faulty and without sweetness. She stays there only in a shadow form. However she stays with the Lord personally because he is the shelter of all good qualities and is faultless. The Lord removes all sorrow and bestows the highest bliss (mukunda). By Kṛ ṣ ṇ a’s embrace all his suffering from separation vanished (hatā ś ubhaḥ ) and he attained the highest bliss. The long separation was excellent since it ended with the highest bliss. Since he was the Lord of men (nṛ patiḥ ), all his followers also experienced similar feelings.

taṁ mā tuleyaṁ parirabhya nirvṛ to

bhī maḥ smayan prema-jalā kulendriyaḥ

yamau kirī ṭ ī ca suhṛ ttamaṁ mudā

pravṛ ddha-bā ṣ pā ḥ parirebhire ’cyutam

Translation

Then Bhī ma, his eyes brimming with tears, laughed with joy as he embraced his maternal cousin, Kṛ ṣ ṇ a. Arjuna and the twins — Nakula and Sahadeva — also joyfully embraced their dear friend, the infallible Lord, and they cried profusely.

 

As cousins they did not show undue reverence with each other. They were overwhelmed with affection. They embraced and felt bliss. Then their faces blossomed with smiles. All their senses were filled with prema. Then Nakula, Sahadeva and Arjuna shed even more tears out of joy than Bhī ma and Yudhiṣ ṭ lhira as they embraced their best friend Acyuta. All their senses were out of control because of prema (prema-java instead of prema-jala). Embracing Kṛ ṣ ṇ a, Bhī ma felt bliss. Or being blissful, Bhī ma smiled and his senses went out of control because of prema. He could not do or say anything.

 

The Yadus were friends. Uddhava was a greater friend. The Pā ṇ ḍ avas were the greatest friends. Thus Kṛ ṣ ṇ a was their greatest friend (suhṛ ttamam). They cried tears of joy with quivering etc. (pravṛ ddha). This should also be understood: out of prema Kṛ ṣ ṇ a was also fixed in embracing them (acyutam). Arjuna is mentioned last because he wanted to embrace Kṛ ṣ ṇ a for a long time. Or overcome with intense affection, he could not come quickly and thus arrived last. He is also mentioned last because Kṛ ṣ ṇ a was most dear friend (suhṛ ttamam). He wore the crown which Kṛ ṣ ṇ a had given him (kirī ṭ ī ).

arjunena pariṣ vakto yamā bhyā m abhivā ditaḥ

brā hmaṇ ebhyo namaskṛ tya vṛ ddhebhyaś ca yathā rhataḥ

mā nino mā nayā m ā sa kuru-sṛ ñ jaya-kaikayā n

Translation

After Arjuna had embraced him once more and Nakula and Sahadeva had offered him their obeisances, Kṛ ṣ ṇ a bowed down to the brā hmaṇ as and elders present, thus properly honoring the respectable members of the Kuru, Sṛ ñ jaya and Kaikaya clans.

 

First their embraces endowed with reverence, with a general description of everyone’s bewilderment in joy, were described. They observed proper behavior from their respective positions. Now the last three Pā ṇ ḍ avas’ more intense emotions are described. Arjuna embraced him again. This shows his great friendship with him. Though not stated, it should be understood that before Arjuna offered respects as mentioned in this verse, Yudhiṣ ṭ hira and Bhī ma offered respects to him first, just as they embraced him first.

 

Or they did not offer respects since it would restrict their bliss. More than previously they experienced bliss. As with place, so according to time, there is special bliss in special circumstances of meeting the Lord. The conclusion is described in Bhā gavatā mṛ ta. Mā ninaḥ means respectable persons. He offered respects in a suitable manner.

Translation

Thus surrounded by his well-wishing relatives and praised on all sides, Kṛ ṣ ṇ a, the crest jewel of the justly renowned, entered the decorated city.

Commentary

Surrounded by friends, Kṛ ṣ ṇ a was praised profusely because he was famous for his attractiveness (puṇ ya) or for being dharma incarnate (puṇ ya) for the Pā ṇ ḍ avas, and was full of all attractiveness (bhagavā n).

Men and young girls were beautifully arrayed in fine, new garments, adorned with flower garlands and ornaments, and anointed with aromatic sandalwood paste. Every home displayed glowing lamps and respectful offerings, and from the holes of the latticed windows drifted incense, further beautifying the city. Banners waved, and the roofs were decorated with golden domes on broad silver bases. Thus Kṛ ṣ ṇ a saw the royal city of the King of the Kurus.

Commentary

Taking the opportunity of the Lord’s entrance to the city, Ś ukadeva describes the city’s auspiciousness in two verses. The roads were completely drenched in water fragrant with sandalwood and the natural mada from elephants. The city especially shone (vi — rā jamā nam) with men and women having shining limbs, dressed in new cloth for this occasion. Each house had lamps and incense coming through the lattices. Among all the Kurus with great wealth, Yudhiṣ ṭ hira’s city was most attractive because he was dearest to Kṛ ṣ ṇ a.

Commentary

The women directly saw Kṛ ṣ ṇ a surrounded by elephants etc. in profusion. Later, to see him clearly, they climbed on the roofs in order to sprinkle flowers. With their glances and excellent smiles indicating their attraction (utsmaya), they welcomed him, seeming to say, “How are you? ” in order to please him. The welcome took place by their intense glances. This is how Ś rī dhara Svā mī explains it. Or “welcoming” can refer to the general reception of a guest. Or, they welcomed him especially in order to reveal their sentiments (vi — dadhuḥ ).

The wives moved along with Kṛ ṣ ṇ a just as stars move along with the moon. They obtained only a glimpse of him since he was surrounded by great personalities. Thus they envied the queens. What have they done so that he, the best of men, completely distributes (ā — tanoti) to them an excellent smile or a smile that gives all bliss (udā ra) and special happiness (utsava) of playful side glances, since, being the best of men, he is most suitable for service because of his beauty and qualities. Though he was capable of various sweet pastimes, only his glance is described since even by that they understood that he was most rare to attain. Or they did not want to show boldness.

pṛ thā vilokya bhrā treyaṁ kṛ ṣ ṇ aṁ tri-bhuvaneś varam

Translation

When Kuntī saw her nephew Kṛ ṣ ṇ a, the master of the three worlds, her heart became filled with love. Rising from her couch with her daughter-in-law, she embraced the Lord.

Commentary

She had special affection since he was her nephew and the cause of joy for the three worlds. In expectation of seeing the Lord, she had previously gone to the main palace and sat there. Then on seeing him, because of intense prema, she was unable to rise from her seat, but somehow she managed to do so. She embraced him. It is later mentioned that Draupadī however was standing behind with bowed head out of great respect. She was present with Kuntī, but did not embrace Kṛ ṣ ṇ a. Sabda-smṛ ti also agrees with this interpretation. The compound sa-snuṣ ā is poetic license.
