Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.74.49
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
-
anujñāpya
—
requesting leave
Gerund of causative of anu + √jñā — 'having caused-permission'. The Lord, who needs no permission, takes Yudhiṣṭhira's. Gauḍīyas: divine courtesy. Bhagavān models the etiquette His bhaktas must learn.
-
anicchantam
—
who did not want it
Present participle of an + √iṣ — 'not-wishing'. One word holding the full ache. Gauḍīyas: every parting from Kṛṣṇa is anicchā for the bhakta; the verse honours that pain without trying to dissolve it.
-
devakī - sutaḥ
—
the son of Devakī
Compound: Devakī + suta (son). Kṛṣṇa is named by His Mathurā-mother at the moment of return-to-Dvārakā. Vraja's Yaśodā-suta has become Dvārakā's Devakī-suta — the geography of names traces the līlā-arc.
Though he was supremely independent (īśvaraḥ), he took permission to leave. He went with palanquins for the convenience of his mother, father and others (devakī-sutaḥ).
Though he was supremely independent (īśvaraḥ), he took permission to leave. He went to his city because he appeared as the son of Devakī to manifest qualities like affection for his devotees (devakī-sutaḥ). Or he went to give pleasure to his parents. He was requested by his friends. Because he stayed a long time there, the other relatives had returned to Dvārakā. That is made clear in the next chapter (SB 10.75.29).
Even the host who lingers must finally leave; even He must take permission. Kṛṣṇa asks the reluctant Yudhiṣṭhira's leave and turns toward Dvārakā — the parting is half the visit; the verse holds the ache of farewell in a single 'anicchantam'.
