Akrūra’s Mission: The Departure from Vraja and the Yamunā Vision of Viṣṇu-Ananta
सुखं प्रभाता रजनीयमाशिष: सत्या बभूवु: पुरयोषितां ध्रुवम् । या: संप्रविष्टस्य मुखं व्रजस्पते: पास्यन्त्यपाङ्गोत्कलितस्मितासवम् ॥ २३ ॥
sukhaṁ prabhātā rajanīyam āśiṣaḥ satyā babhūvuḥ pura-yoṣitāṁ dhruvam yāḥ saṁpraviṣṭasya mukhaṁ vrajas-pateḥ pāsyanty apāṅgotkalita-smitāsavam
此夜之后的黎明，必定为摩图罗的女子带来吉祥与欢喜。她们的愿望将得圆满；因为当弗拉阇之主、主克里希纳入城时，她们将能从祂面容上啜饮那从眼角流溢的微笑甘露。
FAQs
This verse describes the devotees ‘drinking’ Krishna’s face with their eyes—His glance and smile become a nectar-like experience, showing that darśana itself nourishes and awakens bhakti.
Because their heartfelt benediction—that they would behold Krishna as He entered—comes true; their longing culminates in direct vision of His captivating face and smile.
Cultivate intentional darśana—through deity worship, remembrance, and attentive hearing—so that the mind ‘drinks’ the Lord’s beauty and presence rather than chasing fleeting distractions.
