If one gains the favor of the gopīs, he easily gains the favor of Kṛṣṇa because on the recommendation of the gopīs Kṛṣṇa at once accepts the service of a devotee. Lord Caitanya, therefore, wanted to please the gopīs instead of Kṛṣṇa. But His contemporaries misunderstood Him, and for this reason Lord Caitanya renounced the order of householder life and became a sannyāsī. #/div# #/div# please wait#div class="mw-parser-output"# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TEXT_189"#TEXT 189#/span##/h4# #div class="verse"# #dl##dd#e virodhera eka mātra dekhi samādhāna#/dd# #dd#gopikāra sukha kṛṣṇa-sukhe paryavasāna#/dd##/dl# #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="SYNONYMS"#SYNONYMS#/span##/h4# #div class="synonyms"# e — this; virodhera — of the contradiction; eka — one; mātra — only; dekhi — I see; samādhāna — solution; gopikāra — of the gopīs; sukha — the happiness; kṛṣṇa-sukhe — in the happiness of Lord Kṛṣṇa; paryavasāna — the conclusion. #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="TRANSLATION"#TRANSLATION#/span##/h4# #div class="translation"# For this contradiction I see only one solution: the joy of the gopīs lies in the joy of their beloved Kṛṣṇa. #/div# #h4##span class="mw-headline" id="PURPORT"#PURPORT#/span##/h4# #div class="purport"# The situation of the gopīs is perplexing, for although they did not want personal happiness, it was imposed upon them.
