Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam 10.90.12
Blended reading (Sanskrit + English inline)
-
adāt
—
He gave
Aorist of √dā. The opposite verb to grāha (seizing). The Vaiṣṇava life is one of dāna — what Bhagavān places in our hands is for onward gift, not for accumulation. Hari-bhakti-vilāsa makes this a regulative principle.
-
krīḍā-alaṅkāra-vāsāṁsi
—
the ornaments and clothing of His sport
Compound: krīḍā (play) + alaṅkāra (ornament) + vāsāṁsi (clothing). Items intimately worn by Bhagavān become mahā-prasāda. Gauḍīyas treasure His mālā, His remnants, His worn cloth — they carry His touch.
-
naṭānām
—
of the actors
Genitive plural of naṭa — performer, dramatic actor. Note Bhāgavatam's affirmation of the artist-class as worthy recipients of the Lord's grace — not despised, as in some ascetic traditions, but rewarded directly.
-
gīta
—
singing
Past participle of √gai. Those who live by song are honored. Saṅkīrtana is the Gauḍīya yuga-dharma; here Kṛṣṇa in Dvārakā already foreshadows it by enriching the singers.
Krsna and his queens gave the ornaments and clothing used during the water sports to the musical performers (natanam). Genitive case is used for the dative case.
Kṛṣṇa and his wives pleased the dancers and other performers. The possessive case (naṭānāṁ) stands for the dative (gave to the dancers).
Kṛṣṇa and his wives rewarded the dancers and other performers who earned their living by singing or playing instruments. The possessive case (naṭānāṁ) stands for the dative (gave to the dancers). With great generosity Kṛṣṇa and his wives gave the clothing and ornaments worn during their playing.
The possessive case (naṭānāṁ) stands for the dative (gave to the dancers).
When the game ends, Kṛṣṇa and His queens unfasten the ornaments they wore and hand them to the singers and dancers who served the play. The Lord's līlā always overflows downward: those who frame the song receive the jewels.
King Rantideva (SB 9.21) had fasted forty-eight days, and when at last he received a little food, he gave it away to a brāhmaṇa, an outcaste, and a dog — each appearing in turn. Bhagavān then revealed Himself and granted him bhakti.
Like Kṛṣṇa giving away the very ornaments He had just worn, the Vaiṣṇava ideal is unselfconscious onward-flow: what the Lord touches is not hoarded; it is at once redistributed to those who served the līlā.
