Text 177] Talks Between the Lord and Ramananda Raya 197<br />

PURPORT<br />

The twenty different moods headed by kila-kincita are described as follows.<br />

First, in connection with the body, there are bhava (ecstasy), hava (gestures) and<br />

he/a (negligence); in relation to the self there are sobha (beauty), kanti (luster),<br />

dipti (brilliance), madhurya (sweetness), pragalbhata (impudence), audarya (magnanimity)<br />

and dhairya (patience); and in relation to nature, there are lila<br />

(pastimes), vilasa (enjoyment), vicchitti (breaking off) and vibhrama (puzzlement).<br />

There are no English equivalents for the words kila-kincita, mottayita and kuttamita.<br />

A flower garland constitutes the qualities of Srimati Radharat:Ji and is divided<br />

into mental, verbal and bodily parts. Her attitude of forgiveness and mercy is all<br />

mental. Her talks, which are very pleasing to the ear, are verbal. The physical<br />

qualities-age, beauty, luster and grace-are bodily qualities.<br />
