Flute

Krishna's fast friend is the flute, and the gopis (the cowherd maidens) are envious of the flute because it always gets to drink the nectar of Krishna's lips, which is rightfully their property. When He plays the flute, everyone and everything go absolutely mad--the sound is so beautiful and so bewitching that everyone who hears it stops dead in their tracks and runs to find that flute player. So the gopis never have any peace of mind--that flute melody can come dancing into their ears at any time and pull them out of their houses. So, jokingly, the gopis call the flute their enemy. One ongoing pastime is the gopis stealing the flute. They figure if they can get it away from Krishna, then they can have some peace in their lives. There are many funny stories about them stealing and hiding the flute in their braids or in their skirts, but eventually Krishna always gets His flute back. So this amusing story goes on eternally, always with a new twist. Here is one verse from Srila Rupa Gosvami'sPadyavali (Text 245):

nécair nyäsäd atha caraëayor nüpure mükayanté
     dhåtvä dhåtvä kanaka-valayäny utkñipanté bhujante
mudräm akñëoç cakita-cakitaà çaçvad älokayanté
     smitvä smitvä haraté muralém aìkato mädhavasya

                                                                              
[One day Radha told Krsna, “You are the very treasure of My existence, but Your flute has robbed us of all our virtues – our chastity, our religiosity and our observance of social etiquette. Indeed, this murali has ruined our lives. If I ever get the chance I will grab that flute and throw it in the Yamuna and You will never see it again.” Always remembering Radharani’s threat, Krsna would hide the flute under His cloth when He would fall asleep in a kunja. But one time Radha got Her chance.]

She approached Madhava stealthily like a cat, taking care that Her ankle-bells did not tinkle. She slid Her golden bangles up Her arms lest they jangle, and keeping Her eyes on His, in fear that He might wake up, She slyly stole the flute from His lap.                       

                                                                                                              Sri Daityari Pandita

And in Vidagdha-madhava Sri Rupa Gosvami describes how Krsna becomes so bewildered by Radha's glance that He unknowingly gives Her His flute when giving Her a package of naga-kesara flowers. Radha says to Herself (4.35): "This is the same flute that causes the gopis' hands to become numbed when they perform their household duties. At nighttime this flute attracts the golden-complexioned gopis, even from their husbands' embraces. This flute loosens the gopis' tight belts, even in the presence of their elders. This rascal flute - the property of the auspiciousness of Gokula (Krsna) - is now under My control!"

Hansaduta

This story has been related by Sri Rupa Gosvami in his beautiful poem Hansaduta, "The Swan Messenger." Krsna has gone to Mathura and all the Vrajavasis are suffering without Him. One day at noon Radhika was burning up in separation so She went to the Yamuna with Her sakhis to cool down. On the way She saw a kunjawhere She had shared amour with Krsna many times. Remembering the pastimes They had enjoyed there gave Her so much pain that She fainted on the spot. Her sakhis were so worried, afraid that She had left Her body. When they saw that She was still breathing, they collected wet lotus leaves from the Yamuna and fanned Her to cool Her down. Lalita went to the river to bring water to revive Radhika, and there she saw a swan approaching her. She spoke to the swan, asking him to act as their messenger and go to Mathura right away to tell Krsna of their plight and to inspire Him to return to Vrindavan without delay. In Krsna's absence, the forest is burning up and the peacock has been crying so much that he has lost his color and turned white. Such is the plight of Vraja after Krsna departed.

Rupa Mañjari

sri rupa mañjari kararcita padapadma
gostendra-nandana bhujarpita mastakayah
ha modatah kanaka-gauri padaravinda
samvahanani shanakais tava kim karishye

(Vilapa-Kusumanjali 72, Raghunatha dasa Gosvami)

“When will that day come when Rupa Mañjari will call me and order me to do this seva, when Radha and Krsna are both tired from walking here and there in Vrndavana?” Radhika is more soft, so She is more tired. She has put Her head in Krsna’s lap, and Her feet in the lap of Rupa Mañjari. Krsna is gently massaging Her head. And sometimes with His pitambara He is wiping Srimati Radhika’s face very affectionately. And Rupa Mañjari is massaging Her feet very gently, softly and sweetly.

Nearby Rati Mañjari is standing and fanning with a camara. Rupa Mañjari calls her with her eyes, “Come on, come on. I will give you a remnant of maha maha maha prasadam. You should take these feet and gently massage them. I am going to bring water, very beautiful water because They are thirsty.” Saying this, Rupa Mañjari placed those feet in the hands of Rati Mañjari. “When will I have a chance to serve like this? When will Rupa Mañjari and Rati Mañjari give me this remnant of this maha maha maha prasadam?” This is siddha-rupena, serving Them in one's perfected spiritual body.

Four Types of Friends

KŠa has four types of friends in Vnd€vana

1.) Suht - Well-Wishers
"KŠa's well-wisher friends are a little bit older than KŠa, and they
have some parental affection for Him. Because of their being older than
KŠa, they always try to protect Him from any harm. As such, they sometimes
bear weapons so that they can chastise any mischievous persons who want to
do harm to KŠa (NOD pg. 322)."

Principal Suhts

"Counted among the well-wisher friends are Subhadra, MaŠal…bhadra,
Bhadravardhana, Gobha˜a, Yaka, Indrabha˜a, Bhadr€‰ga, V…rabhadra, Mah€guŠa,
Vijaya and Balabhadra (pg. 322)."

Their Bhakti

"My dear MaŠal…bhadra, why are you wielding a shining sword as though you
were running toward Ari˜€sura to kill him? My dear Baladeva, why are You
unnecessarily bearing that heavy plough? My dear Vijaya, don't be
unnecessarily agitated. My dear Bhadravardhana, there is no need to make
these threatening motions. If you will all look more closely you will see
that it is only a thundercloud upon Govardhana Hill; it is not the
Ari˜€sura in the shape of a bull, as you have imagined (pg. 322)."

The Foremost Suhts
"Among the well-wisher friends, MaŠal…bhadra and Balabhadra are the chiefs
(pg. 322)."

2.) Sakh€ - Friends
"Friends who are younger than KŠa, who are always attached to Him and who
give Him all kinds of service are called ordinary friends, or, simply,
friends (page 323)."

Principal Sahk€s

"The names of some sakh€s are Vi€la, Vabha, Ojasv…, Devaprastha,
Var™thapa, Maranda, Kusum€p…a, MaŠibandha and Karandhama (page 323)."
Because the sakh€s are younger than KŠa, they have a trace of
servitude. They greatly enjoy helping to dress KŠa, keeping KŠa informed
about the whereabouts of His cows, and other relishable tasks like fanning
and massaging Him. (See second full paragraph of page 323.)

The Foremost Sakh€

The foremost of all sakh€s is Devaprastha.

Devaprastha's Form
"He is very strong, a ready scholar, and is very expert in playing ball. He
wears a white dress, and he ties his hair into a bunch with a rope... (pg.
324)."

Devaprastha's Bhakti
KŠa began to recline and, "taking this opportunity, Devaprastha, out of
his strong affection for KŠa, immediately began to massage His legs (pg.
324)."

3.) Priya-Sakh€s - Confidential Friends
"The more confidential friends are called priya-sakh€s and are almost
KŠa's age. Because of their very confidential friendship, their behavior
is only on the basis of pure friendship. The behavior of other friends is on
the ground of parental love or servitude, but the basic principle of the
confidential friends is simply friendship on an equal level (pg. 324)."
Suhts are older than KŠa. Consequently, parental love mixes with
their friendship. Sakh€s are younger than KŠa. Thus, servitude mixes with
their friendship. Priya-sakh€s, however, are the same age as KŠa. Their
friendship is perfectly on the level of equality. It is pure friendship
without any influence of parental affection or servitude.

Principal Priya-Sakh€s

"®r…d€m€, Sud€m€, D€m€, Vasud€m€, Ki‰kiŠi, Stoka-kŠa, Aˆu, Bhadrasena,
Vil€s…, PuŠar…ka, Vi˜a‰ka and Kalavi‰ka (page 324)."

Their Bhakti

®r…mat… R€dh€r€Š…'s friend describes their devotional mood. (See pg. 324.)
®r…la R™pa Gosv€m… gives a second description: "Sometimes a
confidential friend would come before KŠa and embrace Him with great
affection and love. Another friend would then come up from the rear and
cover KŠa's eyes with his hands. KŠa would always feel very happy by
such dealings with His confidential friends (pg. 325)."
®r…la Prabhup€da adds his own commentary, further illustrating the
devotional mood of the priya-sakh€s by describing KŠa's lau-stealing
friend, Madhuma‰gala. (See pg. 325)

The Foremost Priya-Sakh€

"Out of all these confidential friends, ®r…d€ma is considered to be the
chief (pg. 325)."

4.) Priya-Narma-Sakh€s - Most Intimate Friends
 "There are other friends who are still more confidential. They are called
priya-narma, or intimate friends (pg. 325)."
The priya-narma are the most intimate and exalted of all devotees in
the sakhya mood, because KŠa engages them in the very confidential service
of arranging His meetings with the gop…s.

Principal Priya-Narmas

"Counted among the priya-narma friends are Subala, Arjuna, Gandharva,
Vasanta and Ujjvala (NOD pg. 325)."

Their Bhakti

A gop… tells ®r…mat… R€dh€r€Š…, "My dear K€‰g… [delicate one], just see
how Subala is whispering Your message into KŠa's ear, how he is delivering
the confidential letter of ®y€m€-d€s… silently into KŠa's hand, how he is
delivering the betel nuts prepared by P€lik€ into KŠa's mouth, and how he
is decorating KŠa with garland prepared by T€rak€. Did you know, my dear
friend, that all these most intimate friends of KŠa are always engaged in
His service in this way? (pgs. 325 - 326)."

The Foremost Priya-Narma

"Out of the many intimate priya-narmas, Subala and Ujjvala are considered to
be the most prominent (pg. 326)."

Subala's Form

(Subala is slightly superior to Ujjvala): "His complexion is just like
molten gold. He is very, very dear to KŠa. He always has a garland around
his neck, and he wears yellow clothing. His eyes are just like lotus flower
petals... (pg. 326)."

Subala's Bhakti

When KŠa would speak to Subala no one else could understand what they were
saying; not even the assembly of sakh…s who are expert in understanding
KŠa's subtle gestures and movements. Subala's superior intimacy would thus
become evident. ®r…la Prabhup€da says, "The degree of intimacy shared by
KŠa and Subala can be understood by the fact that the talks between them
were so confidential that no one else could understand what they were saying
(pg. 326)."

Ujjvala's Form

"Ujjvala always wears some garment of orange color, and the movements of his
eyes are always very restless. He likes to decorate himself with all kinds
of flowers, his bodily hue is almost like KŠa's, and on his neck there is
always a necklace of pearls (NOD pg. 326)."

Ujjvala's Bhakti

®r…mat… R€dh€r€Š… said, "My dear friend it is impossible for Me to keep My
prestige! I wanted to avoid talking to KŠa anymore - but just see! There
again is His friend Ujjvala, coming to Me with his canvassing work. His
entreaties are so powerful that it is very difficult for a gop… to resist
her love for KŠa... (page 326)."
Ujjvala always desires to glorify KŠa's very confidential love
