おお、主人よ。もしあなたがいつでも外国に住んでいるなら、私たちはあなたの魅惑的な御顔を見ることができない。あなたの御顔は我らのすべての苦しみを消し去ってくれます。どうして私たちはあなたがいないところで生きていられるでしょう？彼女たちの話を聞きながら、主は市民や献身者にはとても親切な方で、ドワーラカーの街に入って行った。そして、市民や献身者たちのすべての歓迎に、超越的な視線を投げかけることで感謝を示した。
Lord Kṛṣṇa’s attraction is so powerful that once being attracted by Him one cannot tolerate separation from Him. Why is this so? Because we are all eternally related with Him as the sun rays are eternally related with the sun disc. The sun rays are molecular parts of the solar radiation. Thus the sun rays and the sun cannot be separated. The separation by the cloud is temporary and artificial, and as soon as the cloud is cleared, the sun rays again display their natural effulgence in the presence of the sun. Similarly, the living entities, who are molecular parts of the whole spirit, are separated from the Lord by the artificial covering of māyā, illusory energy. This illusory energy, or the curtain of māyā, has to be removed, and when it is so done, the living entity can see the Lord face to face, and all his miseries are at once removed. Every one of us wants to remove the miseries of life, but we do not know how to do it. The solution is given here, and it rests on us to assimilate it or not.
