        The cow herd girls of gokulam look at this beautiful son of Yashodha with great affection. Their glances penetrate him like arrows and make him subservient to them.  He is the great fortune of the town of Mathura in northern India. Krishna who was born there is the delightful experience of the sages who look for nothing other than that in this world. Ever since he was born to Devaki in the prison and was breast fed by her as an infant he is the beauty of the three worlds.  I pray and offer my salutations to this Supreme Being – Gopalan.
