tvam vai samasta-purusartha-mayah phalatma

 yad-vañchaya su-matayo visrjanti krtsnam

tesam vibho samucito bhavatah samajah

 pumsah striyas ca ratayoh sukha-duhkhinor na

 

Translation: 

 

You are the embodiment of all human goals and are Yourself the final aim of life. Desiring to attain You, O all-powerful Lord, intelligent persons abandon everything else. It is they who are worthy of Your association, not men and women absorbed in the pleasure and grief resulting from their mutual lust.

Here Queen Rukmini refutes Lord Krsna’s statement in text 15:

 

yayor atma-samam vittam

 janmaisvaryakrtir bhavah

tayor vivaho maitri ca

 nottamadhamayoh kvacit

 

“Marriage and friendship are proper between two people who are equal in terms of their wealth, birth, influence, physical appearance and capacity for good progeny, but never between a superior and an inferior.” In fact, only those who have given up all such material conceptions of sense gratification and have taken exclusively to the Lord’s loving service can understand who their real friend and companion is — Lord Sri Krsna Himself.
