coming of gopis for rasa lila-canto-65-narayaneeyam

the gopis of vraja looked upon krishna, not as parabrahman, but as their paramour, and yet they attained so soon to that state of liberation, which is the goal of the pramahamsas,through absorption of the mind in the lord. krishna,the embodiment of sat-chit-aananda,through any feeling or attitude(be it sex-love,anger,fear,friendliness, affection,servitude,or adoration) the seven types of bhakthi .here the relationship with paramour is explained.it embodies the  strongest form of affection overlooking all ethical norms in which considerations  of prestige,returns,security and even self-preservation is given up by a woman who goes away with her lover out of genuine and overpowering love,love of god and surrender under unto him should attain to this kind of uninhibited intense love and renunciation of self centeredness giving away everything to him and asking for nothing from him. and that's  the bhakthi of vraja gopikas
