WORD BY WORD



TRANSLATION

Do you perhaps think I’m ungrateful and thus hold Me in contempt? After all, it is the Supreme Lord who brings living beings together and then separates them.

PURPORT

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī reveals the gopīs’ thoughts:

“We are not like You, who, with Your heart shattered by remembering us day and night, gave up all sense enjoyment in Your distress of separation. Rather, we have not remembered You at all; in fact, we have been quite happy without You.”

In response, Kṛṣṇa here asks whether they resent His ingratitude.
