Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu .5.10
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
This is a statement by an ordinary person of Mathurā on seeing Kṛṣṇa after He had come to Mathurā….
Why has my mind, like bee’s wax (mānasa-madanam), become soft (mradimānam)? The sweet sun (Kṛṣṇa) has risen on the road in Mathurā. Therefore, there is a conjecture that this is the reason for the mind becoming soft. It implies “I can see no other reason.” [Note: The attraction for Kṛṣṇa is so weak that there is a doubt whether He is the cause for the softness of mind.] The locative case (asmin mathurā-vīthyām udayati madhure virocane purataḥ) has been used to describe one action taking place while another action takes place: yasya ca bhāvena bhāva-lakṣaṇam. (Pāṇini 2.3.37) (The literal meaning would be “Tell me friend, why has my mind become soft like bee’s wax while Kṛṣṇa has appeared on the road in Mathurā?”)
