Another example, from Kṛṣṇa-karṇāmṛta: In Vṛndāvana, the ornaments on the feet of the women are cintāmaṇi. The flower trees for making decorations are desire trees. The desire cows are the wealth of Vraja. This display of wealth is an ocean of happiness.

This was verified by Bilvamaṅgala Ṭhākura when in Kṛṣṇa-karṇāmṛta he addressed Kṛṣṇa thus: “My dear Lord, what can I say about the opulence of Your Vṛndāvana? Simply the ornaments on the legs of the damsels of Vṛndāvana are more than cintāmaṇi, and their dresses are as good as the heavenly pārijāta flowers. And the cows exactly resemble the surabhi cows in the transcendental abode. Therefore Your opulence is just like an ocean that no one can measure.”
