Svāminī goes to Nandīśvara, the abode of the king of Vraja and his son Śrī Kṛṣṇa.
How dear this abode is to Svāminī! The cows are mooing and the whole town is filled with the sounds of cowherders, reciters and artists. This place is even greater than Govardhana Hill, which is praised by all the people of Vraja!
The Nandīśvara Hill is always served by hundreds and hundreds of Amarāvatīs (the celestial abode of Indra). When Svāminī sees the hill, Her unrivalled sweetness and beauty wells up and gushes out with a hundred streams. How many hundreds of emotions are manifest in the embodiment of emotion! How sweet are the paces of Bhāvamayī and Her sakhīs! This picture is ever to be meditated upon by the devotees. 

The Mahājanas are singing:

sundarī sakhī saṅge korolo payāna
raṅga paṭāmbara,     jhāṁpalo saba tanu,
kājare ujara nayāna

“Sundarī Rādhikā walks along with Her girlfriends. Her colorful silken sārī covers Her whole body and Her eyes are beautified by eyeliner.”

daśanaka jyoti,        moti naha samatula,
hasaite khase maṇi jāni
kāñcana kiraṇa,          varaṇa naha samatula,
vacana jiniyā piku-vāṇī

“Even pearls cannot compare to the lustre of Her teeth and jewels fall out of Her mouth when She laughs. Golden rays cannot compare to Her bodily complexion and Her voice defeats that of the cuckoos.”

kara padatala thala,  kamala dalāruṇa,
mañjīra ruṇu jhunu bāja.
govinda dāsa koho,          ramaṇī śiromaṇi,
jitala manamatha rāja

 “Her handpalms and footsoles shine like red landlotus-petals and Her anklebells are jingling. Govinda dāsa says: “This crownjewel of women defeats even king Cupid!”

Svāminī enters into the city of Vrajarāja. How beautiful is this city!

Wherever you look, you see extraordinary architecture! This city is filled with a fountain that produces all delightful sweetness and beauty. 

Śrīmatī and Her girlfriends see:

sphaṭika ghaṭita kuḍyamīḍya bharmojjvala paṭalaṁ pavikīlakaṁ kabāṭam
maṇimaya lalanā dhṛta pradīpa vratati naga dvijarāji rājitad vā
dyumaṇi kiraṇa dīpta ratna-kumbha dhvaja naṭa keki vṛtāgra pauraṭāṭṭam
suravara pura ninda yatra śandaṁ vilasati mandira-vṛndam indirāḍhyam

 “The walls of Nandīśvara are made of crystal, the roofs and gates of gold and jewels and the bolts of these gates of diamonds. Female statues made of jewels carry the chandeliers and birds of jewels sit up in jewelled trees that are entwined by vines made of jewels. The sunrays are reflected in the jewelled pots hanging over the veranda and many artificial peacocks are dancing on the flags on top of these pots. The abode of king Nanda defeats the abode of the heavenly king Indra in blissfulness and is full of regal opulence.” (Kṛṣṇa Bhāvanāmṛta 5.48-49)

When Svāminī walks through the alleys of the town, She becomes more grave. Kṛṣṇa considers the jingling of Her anklebells to be like a stream of nectar entering into His ears.

Śrī Rādhikā is the very life of Queen Yaśodā’s maidservant Dhaniṣṭhā, who restlessly walks in and out of the palace, looking out for Her and thinking:

“Why has Rādhikā not come yet?” 

When she finally sees Rādhikā coming in the distance, she quickly comes out, takes Her by the hand and asks Her: “Why are You so late? I was so distressed because of not seeing You!”

Svāminī replies: “You know that I am controlled by My superiors!”  When Śrīmatī is led inside king Nanda’s abode She illuminates the whole place with Her sweet effulgence. When Dhaniṣṭhā takes Rādhikā before queen Yaśodā, Yaśodā exclaims:

“Aho! I understand that the goddess of beauty of all the three worlds has appeared within my house!”

Svāminī is a bhakti-latā, or vine of devotion. She bows down to Mother Yaśodā’s feet, and mother lifts Her and holds Her to her chest, cuddling Her just as she would cuddle her son, by holding Her chin, looking at Her face, kissing Her and smelling Her head. It seems as if Svāminī melts of mother’s pure parental love. Pressed at mother’s breasts Svāminī says with tearfilled eyes and faltering voice: “Mā! I am yours!”

The sakhīs and mañjarīs also bow down to mother’s feet and Yaśodā also embraces and blesses them. Śrīmatī and Her friends look very beautiful when they wear garlands of bhāva-flowers coming from the vine of mother Yaśodā’s parental love. Mother Yaśodā, her heart melting of affection, seats Rādhikā on the best sittingplace and has some of the best sweets brought. Svāminī bows Her head out of shyness when Yaśodā requests Her to eat the sweets, so Yaśodā leaves it up to Dhaniṣṭhā to serve Rādhikā Her meal and goes elsewhere to perform other duties. After Śrīmatī Rādhikā has eaten mother Yaśodā takes Her to the kitchen and says: “O Rādhe! You are the goddess of fortune Herself! You always glance mercifully on my house, so my storehouse is filled to the brim! There is no shortage of any ingredient in my unlimited storehouse! Whatever You need for cooking You can take!” Ullāsavatī Śrīmatī is very happy to get that order from Queen Yaśodā, so She starts cooking for Her dearmost Priyatama.
