Text 11
The ten conditions of viraha, separation, are described in Śrī Ujjvalanīlamaṇi (15.167):
चिन्तात्र जागारोद्वेगौ तानवं मलिनाङ्गता
प्रलापो व्याधिर् उन्मादो मोहो मृत्युर् दशा दशcintātra jāgārodvegau tānavaṃ malināṅgatā
pralāpo vyādhir unmādo moho mṛtyur daśā daśaTen conditions arise in separation (viraha): (1) cintā–anxious con sideration, (2) jāgara–sleeplessness, (3) udvega–agitation, (4) tānava–emaciation of the body, (5) malināṅgatā–discolouring of bodily limbs, (6) pralāpa–incoherent speech, (7) vyādhi–being stricken with a tormenting ailment, (8) unmāda–madness, (9) moha–bewilderment and (10) mṛtyu–death, or being unconscious for a long time. At the stage of mohana, an extraordinary condition manifests in Śrī Rādhā, in which She experiences extreme anguish of separation from Kṛṣṇa.
