- Shri Parmanand Das, Parmanand Sagar (605)

Shri Gopala is pleased only by pure, effortless love, free from any trace of pretense or artificiality.
O friend, when I gaze upon the beloved face of Sri Krishna, my heart is filled with immense joy, and when His eyes meet mine, my bliss knows no bounds. [1]

Just as the lotus blooms naturally at the sight of the sun, and the night-blooming lotus blossoms in the presence of the moon,
Just as the cuckoo loves the spring season by its very nature, so too is the effortless love between Sri Radha and Sri Krishna. [2]

Just as the chatak bird naturally loves the raindrops of Swati’s star. Just as the earth and water share an inseparable bond.
One should love Sri Krishna naturally, through mind, action, and words. Shri Paramananda Das declares this to be the essence of true love. [3]
