Śrī Rādhā is (4) the ocean of deep compassion, always showering Her devotees with the nectarstream of Her mercy. Those who have been touched by the nectar of that compassion, can testify.

In the eighth canto of his ‘Vṛndāvana Mahimāmṛta’, Śrīpāda has drawn a very sweet picture of how Śrī Rādhā showers Her maidservants with the nectar of Her compassion:

kṣaṇaṁ caraṇa vicchedyāc chrīśvaryāḥ prāṇa hāriṇīm
padāravinda samlagna tayaivāharniśaṁ sthitām
preṣṭha dvandva prasāda srag vastra bhūṣādi mohinīm
mahā vinaya sauśilyādy anekāścarya sad guṇām

    “Day and night the maidservants are staying at Śrīśvarī’s (Rādhikā’s) lotus-feet, for they will die if they are separated from them for even a second. They are very enchanting as they wear the leftover garlands, dresses and ornaments of the loving divine Couple and they are also adorned with many amazing attributes such as great humility and good behavior.”

Śrīla Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī says: karuṇā vidravad dehā  “Her body melts with compassion”.

Normally, a person’s heart melts with compassion, but only in Rādhārāṇī’s case the whole body melts with compassion. She always bathes in streams of ambrosial compassion, and because Kṛṣṇa accepted Her mood when He became Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Mahāprabhu is so merciful! Mahāprabhu does not consider who is qualified or unqualified, who is from which caste or from which āśrama. He gives prema (love of God) without making such distinctions! That is ‘a body melting with compassion’! It is Rādhā’s storehouse of compassion, not Kṛṣṇa’s! In Vraja-līlā the storehouse of Rādhā’s mercy remained hidden and closed, but when Mahāprabhu accepted the mood and complexion of Śrī Rādhā, it became manifest to the world! Mahāprabhu showed the people of the world how the body can melt with compassion, because He assumed Śrī Rādhā’s merciful mood. Because Rādhikā’s body melts with compassion, it can be compared to the fourth cosmic ocean, the ocean of clarified butter.
