In plain words
We bring Prema into every matter. So the two letters of ‘Prema’ are losing their worth. This Prema is to flow towards God alone; all the rest is anurāga! The ones who longed for such Prema were the Gopīs. By this principle of Prema they could make the Supreme Principle their own. In any situation at all, they never gave themselves to thinking about things. When they had all gathered in one place and were contemplating this principle of Prema, Kṛṣṇa appeared before them.
The eyes that can see God are the eyes of Jñāna, not the eyes of skin
Experiencing the Ānanda of Kṛṣṇa who had appeared before them, they closed their eyes for a moment. Today, people in the world go to the temple to see God. They go to the temple, and the moment they come near God, they close their eyes and bow. Why should those who went to see God close their eyes? What is the inner meaning of this? “O God! These eyes see a form of You that is imagined. But the eyes that can truly see You are not the eyes of skin; they are the eyes of Jñāna. So I close my eyes and see with my eyes of Jñāna”: that is the inner meaning. As they closed their eyes, Kṛṣṇa vanished. The Gopīs scattered and ran in every direction. They went to the forests, they went to the groves, they entered Bṛndāvana. They take hold of a tree and ask it, ‘Where is our Kṛṣṇa?’ They took hold of a bush. ‘Where has our Kṛṣṇa gone? Do you know?’ they ask. What does that mean? The feeling of Prema that God is in everything had filled them. They took hold of a flower.
The dark one, the one with lotus eyes, the one who sprinkles the nectar of grace upon us, the one with the peacock feather waving on His crown, the one whose face is radiant with a smile: one such has stolen the maidens' treasure of honour. O jasmines, is He not hiding behind your bushes? Tell us!
