English translation of verses 2.24.29-31:

There was a very austere saint named Asuri Muni, who was a king of sages and a great devotee of Śrī Kṛṣṇa. He performed austerities on Nārada Mountain and in his meditation he always saw handsome Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa standing in a circle of light on the lotus of his heart. Then, one night, Kṛṣṇa was suddenly no longer present in his meditation.
