- Krishna is the possessor of all the potencies and Srimati Radhika is potency itself.
- The different moods are manifested from the potencies and each of them has a name.
- Antaranga-sakti (svarupa-sakti), bahiranga-sakti (maya-sakti), and tatastha-sakti (jiva-sakti).
- Sloka: ete cāṁśa-kalāḥ puṁsaḥ
kṛṣṇas tu bhagavān svayam (SB 1.3.28). - On hladini, sandini, and samvit.
- Through hladini-sakti Krsna tastes the sweets and offers them to His devotees.
- The root of all types of bliss/hladini-sakti is Srimati Radhika. She is the embodiment of mahabhava.
- Mahabhava is condensed until it becomes madanakyia-mahabhava.
- Radha manifests in all the gopis in Vrndavana; in Dvaraka She manifests as the queens; and in Vaikuntha She manifests as Laksmi.
- Krsna is the ocean of rasa, but to taste rasa He needs Radha.
- Rasa is like caramel syrup, condensed and sweet, and those who want to dip into Brahma (the impersonal effulgence of the Lord) are like ants that die when they enter the syrup, become submerged, and float there.
- Srimati Radhika’s body is very bright and full of transcendental sweetness. She fulfils all the desires of Krishna.
- The difference between sukha (happiness) and ananda (bliss) is that sukha means ‘I am happy’ and ananda means ‘we are happy’.
- Such is Caitanya Mahaprabhu, He tastes transcendental sweetness and distributes it to everyone.
- About the pranaya-bandana wedding mantra: My heart is your heart and your heart is my heart.
- The mood of Lalita manifests in the form of Lalita-sakhi; the mood of vishesha manifests in the form of Visakha-sakhi; the humour of Radha’s form in Rupa Manjari; Ananga Prema manifests as Ananga Manjari; parental humour as Yasoda and Nanda; anger manifests as Abhimanyu, and so on.
- The mood of anger is selfless and also pleases Krsna.
