HAVING received no news of her Gopala
(Krishna, God incarnate), Yasoda once came to
Radha and asked her if she had any news from
Him. At that time Radha was in a deep trance,
and so did not hear Yasoda. Subsequently, when
her trance was over, she saw Yasoda, the queen of
Nanda, sitting before her. Bowing down to her at
once, Radha asked Yasoda the reason of her visit,
and when Yasoda stated the reason, she said:
“Mother, shut your eyes and meditate upon the
form of Copula, and you will be able to see Him”.
And as soon as Yasoda shut her eyes, Radha, who
was herself the very essence of spiritual feelings
(Bhava), overwhelmed her with her power, and in
that super-conscious mood, Yasoda saw her
Gopala. Then Yasoda asked this boon of Radha,
"Mother, grant me that I may see my beloved
Gopala whenever I close my eyes."
