- King Yudhiṣṭhira said: O supreme controller, I do not know what pious deeds we fools have done so that we can see You, whom the masters of yogic perfection rarely see.

- After the two Kṛṣṇas bathed there, they drank the river’s clear water. The great warriors then saw an attractive young girl walking nearby.

- The women became enchanted when they saw that most excellent of males enter. In their minds they each accepted Him, who had been brought there by destiny, as their chosen husband.
- Then the imperishable Supreme Personality, assuming a separate form for each bride, duly married all the princesses simultaneously, each in her own palace.
- From her maidservant’s hand Goddess Rukmiṇī took a yak-hair fan with a jeweled handle, and then she began to worship her master by fanning Him.
- Terrified of these kings, O lovely-browed one, We took shelter in the ocean. We have become enemies of powerful men, and We practically abandoned Our royal throne.
- O fine-browed lady, women are usually destined to suffer when they stay with men whose behavior is uncertain and who pursue a path not approved by society.

- O sinless one, I have now seen firsthand the pure love and chaste attachment you have for your husband. Even though shaken by My words, your mind could not be pulled away from Me.

- O King, Balī, the son of Kṛtavarmā, married Rukmiṇī’s young daughter, large-eyed Cārumatī.
- Urged on by the wicked kings, Rukmī ignored the divine voice. In fact destiny itself was urging Rukmī on, and thus he ridiculed Lord Balarāma as follows.
- Rukmī said:] You cowherds who wander about the forests know nothing about dice. Playing with dice and sporting with arrows are only for kings, not for the likes of You.

- Citralekhā said: I will remove your distress. If He is to be found

- Lord Balarāma fought with Kumbhāṇḍa and Kūpakarṇa, Sāmba with Bāṇa’s son, and Sātyaki with Bāṇa.
- Lord Kārtikeya was distressed by the flood of Pradyumna’s arrows raining down from all sides, and thus he fled the battlefield on his peacock as blood poured from his limbs.
- Excited to a frenzy by the fighting, Bāṇa simultaneously pulled taut all the strings of his five hundred bows and fixed two arrows on each string.
COMMENTARY
Due to ignorance the materialist is bound in the cycle of birth and death. Similarly, Rukmiṇī could not understand the depth of Kṛṣṇa’s joking because she was bound by pure love of God (prema-bandha-nam). As kṛṣṇa-prema increases to anurāga (intense attraction), the devotee, who is the shelter of that anurāga, feels more and more humble and wretched at every moment. Overwhelmed by delusion, he thinks, “I am not worthy of Kṛṣṇa, and therefore I deserve to be rejected by Him.”

paryaṅkād avaruhyāśu tām utthāpya catur-bhujaḥ

pramṛjyāśru-kale netre stanau copahatau śucā
āśliṣya bāhunā rājan ananya-viṣayāṁ satīm
sāntvayām āsa sāntva-jñaḥ kṛpayā kṛpaṇāṁ prabhuḥ
hāsya-prauḍhi-bhramac-cittām atad-arhāṁ satāṁ gatiḥ
TRANSLATION
Wiping her tear-filled eyes and her breasts, which were stained by tears of grief, the Supreme Lord, the goal of His devotees, embraced His chaste wife, who desired nothing but Him, O King. Expert in the art of pacification, Śrī Kṛṣṇa tenderly consoled pitiable Rukmiṇī, whose mind was bewildered by His clever joking and who did not deserve to suffer so.
COMMENTARY
Kṛṣṇa wiped Rukmiṇī’s tear-filled eyes (aśru-kale) and her breasts, which were stained with tears of sorrow (śucā).
