Seeing the beautiful woman, the King was very much enlivened, and the fatigue of his hunting excursion was relieved. He was of course very much attracted because of lusty desires, and thus he inquired from her as follows, in a joking mood.
Gauḍīya Ācāryas
Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura
Gauḍīya
Translation
Delighted to see her, relieved of his fatigue, and agitated by desire, he inquired from her, in a joking mood with gentle words.
Personal Guidance
Lust quickly relieves the king's hunting fatigue. The very fact that one fatigue dissolves on meeting another sense object should alert us — fatigue's true cure was elsewhere.
Reflection Questions
- When a new attraction suddenly relieves my exhaustion, what is that telling me?
- Where am I medicating one appetite by inflaming another?
