We offer our respectful obeisances unto Śrī Rādhikā, the sustainer of the universe, by whose golden radiance even the dark-hued form of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, shining like a blue sapphire, appears bright. By the intensity of Her divine effulgence, even the darkest bumblebees, crows, and cuckoos appear fair-complexioned.
