Arjuna Marries Subhadrā; Kṛṣṇa Honors Two Devotees in Mithilā (Śrutadeva and Bahulāśva)
वाचा मधुरया प्रीणन्निदमाहान्नतर्पितान् । पादावङ्कगतौ विष्णो: संस्पृशञ्छनकैर्मुदा ॥ ३० ॥
vācā madhurayā prīṇann idam āhānna-tarpitān pādāv aṅka-gatau viṣṇoḥ saṁspṛśañ chanakair mudā
皆が食事を終えて満ち足りると、王はさらに喜ばせようと甘美な声でゆるやかに語り始めた。主ヴィシュヌの御足を膝に載せ、歓喜のうちにそっと揉み奉った。
This verse highlights affectionate, reverent service—gently touching the Lord’s feet with joy—showing that humble physical service, joined with pleasing words, is a direct expression of bhakti.
It portrays ideal devotional conduct: even while addressing people who remain unsatisfied, a devotee keeps the Lord at the center—honoring Him through intimate, respectful service.
Speak gently to calm dissatisfaction and conflict, and keep a steady inner practice of devotion (remembrance, reverence, service) so your actions stay grounded in dharma and compassion.
