Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.42.6
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
-
prasannaḥ
—
satisfied, gracious
From pra + √sad. Prasāda flows from prasannatā. Gauḍīya note: He is not bargaining — He is already pleased; the straightening is the natural overflow of His already-given grace.
-
bhagavān
—
the Supreme Lord
The six-fold opulence one: aiśvarya, vīrya, yaśas, śrī, jñāna, vairāgya (Viṣṇu Purāṇa 6.5.47). Used here precisely because what He does next is an aiśvarya display compressed into a tender act.
-
darśane
—
of seeing Him
Locative of darśana. Gauḍīya doctrine: darśana is not passive viewing — it is reciprocal exchange. The verse calls Kubjā's transformation the phala (fruit) of one such darśana.
-
phalam
—
the result, fruit
From √phal. Every contact with the Lord bears phala — the verse here makes Kubjā the demonstration-case, the public proof that even an unintended darśana ripens.
-
rucira
—
attractive
From √ruc, to shine, to please. Even in her crooked state her face was rucira — Gauḍīya commentators note that Kṛṣṇa's mercy descends through the latent goodness already there; nothing is wasted.
Kṛṣṇa, pleased with her, decided to make Kubjā, or Trivakrā, straight. Another reason for making her straight was that she had a lovely face. He showed the immediate result of seeing him.
A sculptor seeing a piece of warped wood does not throw it out; He turns it on His knee until it remembers its straight form. Kṛṣṇa straightens Kubjā not because she earned it but to show the world what one darśana of Him does to a soul.
In SB 6.1–3, the fallen brāhmaṇa Ajāmila, dying, calls his son Nārāyaṇa — and the inadvertent utterance of the holy name straightens his entire course. Yamadūtas retreat, Viṣṇudūtas arrive.
Kubjā's bodily straightening is the outer parallel of Ajāmila's inner one. Gauḍīya principle: a single contact with Kṛṣṇa — name, form, glance, or touch — reorients the jīva irreversibly.
