Cc Madhya 25.273

কৃষ্ণভক্তিসিদ্ধান্তগণ, যাতে প্রফুল্ল পদ্মবন, তার মধু করিঽ আস্বাদন প্রেমরসকুমুদবনে, প্রফুল্লিত রাত্রিদিনে, তাতে চরাও মনোভৃংগগণ

कृष्णभक्तिसिद्धान्तगण, याते प्रफुल्ल पद्मवन, तार मधु करिऽ आस्वादन प्रेमरसकुमुदवने, प्रफुल्लित रात्रिदिने, ताते चराओ मनोभृंगगण

kṛṣṇa-bhakti-siddhānta-gaṇa, yāte praphulla padma-vana, tāra madhu kari' āsvādana prema-rasa-kumuda-vane, praphullita rātri-dine, tāte carāo mano-bhṛṅga-gaṇa

Synonyms

kṛṣṇa-bhakti-siddhānta-gaṇa—the conclusive understanding of devotional service to Kṛṣṇa; yāte—by which; praphulla—enlivened; padma-vana—the forest of lotus flowers; tāra madhu—the honey collected from those lotus flowers; kari' āsvādana—relishing; prema-rasa—of transcendental love of Kṛṣṇa; kumuda-vane—in the forest of kumuda flowers (a type of lotus); praphullita—being jubilant; rātri-dine—day and night; tāte—in that forest of lotus flowers; carāo—make wander; manaḥ-bhṛṅga-gaṇa—the bumblebees of your minds..

Translation

Devotional service to Kṛṣṇa is exactly like a pleasing, jubilant forest of lotus flowers wherein there is ample honey. I request everyone to taste this honey. If all the mental speculators bring the bees of their minds into this forest of lotus flowers and jubilantly enjoy ecstatic love of Kṛṣṇa day and night, their mental speculation will be completely transcendentally satisfied.
