Radha Krsna Guna Gana Mithasakhi Samvardhana
Rupanuga Bhajana Darpana Song 17
rādhā-kṛṣṇa-guṇa-gāna mithāsakti
sambardhana ubhayābhisāra sampadana
kṛṣṇa sakhī-samarpaṇa narma-bākya-āswādana
ubhayera subeśa-racana
singing songs together about the glories of Radha - Krsna,
citta-bhāba-utgatana mitha-cchidra
saṅgopana pratīpa janera subañcana
kuśala śikhaṇa āra sammilana
du'janara byajanādi bibidha sebāna
7) The sakhis sometimes have to seek out and discover the particular ecstatic emotion which is hidden within the deepest core of Their hearts,
ubhaya kuśala dhyāna doṣe tiraskāra
dāna paraspara sandeśa bāhana
rādhikāra daśā-kāle prāṇa-rākha
su-kauśale sakhī-sādhāran ̣ akārja jana
13) Keeping in mind the benefit of Them Both, the sakhis sometimes have to chastise Them for some fault,
jeba je sakhīra kārja biśeṣa boliyā
dharja pradarśita ha'be jathā-sthāne
rūpānuga bhaje jeba je sakhīra
jei sebā tad- anuga sei sebā māne
Each sakhi is fixed up in her own specific eternal service, which she engages in befittingly at the proper time and place. Whoever wants to do the bhajana which strictly follows Srila Rupa Gosvami dwells upon one particular sakhi and her seva and thus becomes her follower.
