Krishna's original nature is eternally playing with His beloved devotees in Vrindavan through unconditional, reciprocal love.Listen — Srila Prabhupada Uvaca
Jaya Rādhā-Mādhava & Purport — July 20, 1971, New York 710720PU-NEW YORK [16:19 Minutes] Purport_710720PU-NEW YORK Prabhupāda: So you know this song Jaya Rādhā-Mādhava? Devotees: Jaya! Prabhupāda: So you can follow...[break] [leads singing of Jaya Rādhā-Mādhava] Prabhupāda: Somebody play. [06:18] So this is the... [aside:] Sit down. ...original nature of Kṛṣṇa. Original nature of Kṛṣṇa. He is Rādhā-Mādhava. He is the lover of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī.
And kuñja-vihārī, always enjoying the company of the gopīs within the bushes of Vṛndāvana forest. Rādhā-mādhava kuñja-vihārī. So He's not only lover of Rādhārāṇī, but braja-jana-vallabha. The whole residents of Vṛndāvana, they love Kṛṣṇa. They do not know anything else.
They do not know whether Kṛṣṇa is God or not; neither they are very much harassed that "I shall love Kṛṣṇa if He is God." "He may be God or He may be whatever He is—it doesn't matter—but we love God..., Kṛṣṇa." That's all. That is called unalloyed love. "If Kṛṣṇa is God, then I shall love Him"—this is conditional love; this is not pure love. Kṛṣṇa may be God or whatever He may be, but by His wonderful acts, the vrajavāsī, they are thinking, "Oh, Kṛṣṇa, He is very wonderful child; maybe some demigod.
Maybe some demigod." Because people are generally under impression that the demigods are all-powerful. They're powerful within this material world. But they do not know that Kṛṣṇa is above all of them. Īśvaraḥ paramaḥ kṛṣṇaḥ sac-cid-ānanda-vigrahaḥ [Bs. 5.1]. The highest demigod, Brahmā, is giving his opinion: "The supreme controller is Kṛṣṇa." So as the residents of Vṛndāvana, they love Kṛṣṇa without any condition, similarly, Kṛṣṇa also loves them without any condition.
Vraja-jana-vallabha giri-vara-dhārī. When the inhabitants of Vṛndāvana were in danger because they stopped Indra-yajña and Indra became very angry, and he sent very great, powerful cloud and rained over Vṛndāvana incessantly for seven days, so when the inhabitants became very much disturbed, Kṛṣṇa, although He was only seven-years-old boy, He saved them by lifting the Govardhana Hill. So He taught Indradeva, demigod, that "To stop your disturbance is the business of My little finger, that's all." [chuckles] So he came down to his knees. These things you'll find in Kṛṣṇa book. So as gopī-jana-vallabha, His only business is how to protect gopī-jana.
So our Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement is how to become one of the gopī-jana. Then Kṛṣṇa will save us from any danger—even by lifting a hill or mountain. Kṛṣṇa is so kind and so powerful. When Kṛṣṇa lifted the hill, He did not practice some yoga system.
That is God. Although He was a child, He was playing like a child, He was dealing like a child, but when there was need, He was manifesting as God. That is Kṛṣṇa. That is Kṛṣṇa.
