Dvaravati-sthasya harer virahah
Lord Krishna’s Feelings of Separation in Dvaraka

VERSE 375

Even though tightly embraced
by Rukmini-devi in a jeweled
palace in Dvaraka by the sea,
Lord Krishna, remembering the
fragrance of Srimati Radharani’s
transcendental pastimes in the
vanira grove by the lovely shore
of the Yamuna, suddenly fainted.

– Sri Umapatidhara
