Beautiful Śyāma’s crown, pearl necklace, flowergarland and loincloth have all broken and fallen off, so Svāminī says:

“Sundara! Just look at Your condition! Wait, let Me decorate You! I’ve spoiled Your looks, and I’ll make You look nice again! Just sit down for a while!”

Then She tells Rūpa Mañjarī: “Rūpa! Come here! We’re going to pick some flowers!” Svāminī takes Rūpa along into the gardens and picks flowers of Her own choice there. Then She comes back into the kuñja and, along with Rūpa Mañjarī,  begins to decorate Her Prāṇanātha with ornaments made of these flowers.  Tulasī stands on one side of the kuñja and floats in oceans of bliss as she sees her Īśvarī’s expertise in service.

She thinks: “O Svāmini! Only through You such services are possible!” 

Meanwhile, because of Svāminī’s touch Śyāma’s body becomes adorned with ecstatic bodily symptoms such as sweat drops, that obstruct Svāminī’s service. Svāminī gives a hint to Tulasī to stand by Her Hero’s side and to fan Him. Because of Tulasī’s fanning Nāgara’s sweat drops dry up, but now Tulasī begins to fan with such humorous expertise that the breeze she makes causes Svāminī’s clothes, like Her blouse, to loosen. Śyāma becomes agitated from seeing Rādhikā’s sublime limbs half-covered and this causes Him to engage in activities that obstruct Svāminī’s  initial activities of dressing Him. Tulasī softly giggles, but still she won’t stop her expert fanning. Svāminī then rebukes her with Her meaningful glances, as if saying: “Tulasi, how naughty you are!  How can I decorate My Nāgara when you fan Him like that? Fan Him nicely, so that He will sit down peacefully!”

After receiving Svāminī’s sublime chastisement Tulasī blissfully finds a new way to fan Kṛṣṇa. Now she starts fanning in such a way that Svāminī’s bodily fragrance enters into Śyāma’s nostrils and His patience is destroyed once more. Blessed is this maidservant! Blessed is her service!

         In order to relish these pastimes a devotee must awaken his svarūpa.
“Even when a person like me is in the right environment (living in Vraja) it does not work! The mind is so stubborn and crooked!”

In material consciousness nobody can approach Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa. One must enter into svarūpāveśa. bhūta-śuddhi (identification as a servant of the deity) is also required during deity-worship.
Svarūpāveśa is the bhūta-śuddhi of the Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇavas. During mental service one must awaken one’s svarūpa, and this is similarly required while practising other limbs of devotion. A practising devotee should always identify himself like this: “I am Rādhā’s kiṅkarī!”

No one can delight Svāminī and Śyāma as much as the kiṅkarī, for she actually establishes Their meeting, which makes Them very happy. They are so pleased with the kiṅkarī that They give even Themselves to her!

Śrī Līlāśuka has said: apāsya vṛndāvana pāda lāsyam upāsyam anyaṁ na vilokayāma (Kṛṣṇa Karṇāmṛta) – “We cannot see any other object of worship than the dancing feet (of Kṛṣṇa) in Vṛndāvana.”

Śrī Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja has written in his Sāraṅga Raṅgadā-commentary on this verse: vṛndāvane pāda-lāsyaṁ yayos taṁ yuva-dvandva ratnaṁ tyaktvā anyam upāsyaṁ sevyaṁ na vilokayāma –  “We don’t look at any other object of worship than the jewel-like young pair of Vraja, that is devoted to dancing in Śrī Vṛndāvana.”

The loyalty of the mañjarīs goes even deeper! Allegiance to the great words of the Gosvāmīs leads to a steady wakefulness of one’s svarūpa. Śrīman Mahāprabhu gave them (the Gosvāmīs) the duty: “Do bhajan and in this way teach the world!”
