Seeing Radha stand alone,
Krishna came from behind and blindfolded her with his hands.
But his hands could not fully cover her large and elongated vivacious eyes.
They shone out from within his fingers as a serpent's gem which it had disgorged and hid between its fangs;" or as Rahu finding the sun and Mars together, had pounced and held them fast.
Krishna does not have any self-interest, for there is nothing for him to desire or achieve.
But he removes the grief of separation of those whom he loves.
His eyes came close to Radha's, and his lips were on hers.
It was as though the lotuses forgetting their opposition to the moon had opened their petals to be kissed by the moon rays.
Says Suradasa,
Krishna's loving embrace removed from Radha. the sorrow of her parting.
