While strolling in Brundavana Sri Krishna, once told Gopikas that his abode has no specific form and that he could be in any form. So saying Krishna immersed in Supreme bliss and disappeared. Gopikas started searching for him in great distress.

Oh friends, let us search for Krishna in this Brundavana forest which is sacred like Vedas because Lord Krishna moved there.

|
We searched for him on branches of various fruit trees but in vain. Pious and blessed people only will be able to find him. (Krishna can be found in branches of Vedas.)

| C3,4 |

He governs all creation without ay attachment. He is knowledge personified. We should use our intelligence to comprehend his countless number of deeds.
Sensory organs like ears and eyes alone can not comprehend him. He can be perceived by utmost piety. He will not be visible by physical search alone.

| C5,6 |

Krishna is the embodiment of infinite wisdom. He is within and outside also. He is all pervading like the sky. Our egoistic search will not yield fruits.
Know that Krishna is the embodiment of Supreme conciousness. He is the one who kept the cosmos in stomach.

He is immutable. He is there even after apocalypse. Though he is all pervading he is invisible due to Maya.
Demons and agnostics are against him. They are self destructive. They don't have his grace.

| C 9 |

|
The scriptures are great because they extol his glory. Ralised souls are his partial manifestations. Narayana Teerdha authored this divine song. He always worshipped the unblemished Lord.
