se—that Lord Kṛṣṇa; amṛta-ānande—in spiritual happiness; bhakta—the devotee; saha—with; ḍubena—plunges; āpane—Himself; kṛṣṇa—Kṛṣṇa; bhakta-vaśa—of being subjugated by the devotee; guṇa—the quality; kahe—say; aiśvarya-jñāni-gaṇe—learned scholars knowing the opulence of Kṛṣṇa.
TRANSLATION
"The exchange of spiritual happiness between Kṛṣṇa and His devotee, in which Kṛṣṇa is controlled by His devotee, is compared to an ocean of nectar into which the devotee and Kṛṣṇa plunge. This is the verdict of learned scholars who appreciate Kṛṣṇa's opulence.
