The sound of the flute, from Vidagdha-mādhava: Hearing the sound of Kṛṣṇa’s flute, the thousand eyes on Indra’s shaking body are shedding tears which are falling on the ground. Though there are no clouds in the sky, Vṛndāvana has been nourished by showers made of those tears.

In the Vidagdha-mādhava there is the following statement: “When Kṛṣṇa was playing on His flute, Baladeva very anxiously declared, ‘Just see how, after hearing the transcendental sound of Kṛṣṇa’s flute, Indra, the King of heaven, is crying in his heavenly kingdom! And from his teardrops falling on the ground, Vṛndāvana appears to have become a celestial residence for the demigods.’ ”

Commentary

Deva-mātṛkam (having Indra as foster-mother) means “nourished by rainwater.”
