“I will relate to you the topics of My distress resulting from love of Kṛṣṇa in a solitary place, devoid of materialistic people. No materialistic person will understand the distress I feel due to separation from Kṛṣṇa.

That is why I will open the doors of My wounded heart and reveal the pain I feel due to separation from Kṛṣṇa to intimate devotees like you.”
