Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.71.25
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
-
viklinna - hṛdayaḥ
—
with melted heart
Viklinna — wet, melted, dissolved. Gauḍīyas treat heart-melting as the signature of true bhāva; āśru and sveda are the body's reading of an interior thaw.
-
cirāt
—
after a long time
Adverb of duration. Viraha is named in one word; the verse trusts the reader to feel the years of absence packed into it.
-
priya - tamam
—
the dearmost
Superlative — beyond priya and priyatara to priyatama. For Yudhiṣṭhira, Kṛṣṇa is not one of many loves but the topmost; the very grammar excludes rivals.
-
punaḥ punaḥ
—
again and again
Reduplication of intensity. Bhakti's mathematics: one embrace will not exhaust the moment; the body keeps repeating what the heart cannot finish.
Kṛṣṇa was by his nature attractive to all hearts (kṛṣṇam). But he was especially dear to Yudhiṣṭhira. Kṛṣṇa was the crest jewel among all his dear friends. And he was seeing him after a long time. Therefore repeatedly he embraced Kṛṣṇa since he felt unsatisfied when he stopped.
Yudhiṣṭhira's heart melting and embracing Kṛṣṇa again and again after long viraha is like a beeswax seal held to flame — the moment the warmth touches it, the form softens and pours toward its source.
Kṛṣṇa and the Pāṇḍavas have not seen each other since before the Yadu council. The Mahābhārata records years of correspondence and intermittent visits; the Bhāgavata compresses the emotional arc to a single word: cirāt — 'after long.'
Gauḍīya rasa-śāstra reads viraha as the heater of love. When milana finally comes, the heart cannot embrace just once. Punaḥ punaḥ — again and again — is the marker of bhakti's surplus.
