Passage 56

In English

She said, “! I cannot read that letter. Our bodies and minds are burning in the fire of separation. If I touch that letter, it might catch fire. It is not proper for us to burn the words written by God.” Another gopika said, “We have been crying endlessly. When I set eyes on the words written by our dear , all our agony will emerge as tears. The tears will fall on the paper and smear the words. So I cannot read it, either.”
