- Krsna is the personification of rasa. He creates and savors.
- The gopis again ask Krsna: “What do you gain from seeing us suffering?, “the sweetness condensed by separation”.

- Krsna savors the prema-madurya of the nitya-siddha-gopis.

- The gopis abandoned everything to meet Krsna, and they say: “You abandoned us, You deceived us”; as stated in the Gopi Gita.
- The pastime of mangoes refers to the sadhana-siddha-gopis; and the lotus pastime refers to the nitya-siddha-gopis.
