Everyone in the material world is interested in a good spy story, this is because in Radha Krisnas pastimes these things are there, and they are pervertedly reflected in the material world.Lets cover the example of some famous material spies before we get into the transcendental realm.Spie's are mostly or always immoral people often with double spy tendencies, they spy for 2 Governments at once risking their life,if any party finds out. Everyone in material society are fascinated by James Bond movies, actually the real James Bond in British history is Sidney Rielley.He was born in Ukraine but ended up in England and was the most famous spy .lots of killings,many women , being a double agent for 2-3 countries ,benefiting for all this, untill he finally got caught by the Russian communists in 1920 something and was excecuted.There is so many examples in ancient and modern history .In Radha Krisnas lilas there is spies (transcendental spies, fully beyond the material modes of nature) , they are often Dutis (messengers) between Radha and Krishna, and they tell Sri Radha about Krishnas activities and Krsnas intimate friends the Priyanarma sakhas give so many details to Krishna about the activities of Radha.And there is the priya narma sakhis 
All glories to the fully transcendental spies of Radha Krsna

Srila Rupa Goswami has explained in his Ujjvala Nilamani:

Chapter 7

Varieties of Messengers (Duti-bheda)

Some gopis assist Lord Krsna by carrying messages. Situated in the various stages of ecstatic love, beginning with purva-raga (preliminary attraction), these messenger-gopis yearn to associate with Lord Krsna. They may be divided into two groups: 1. svayam-duti; and 2. apta-duti. They will be described in this chapter.

Svayam-duti (A messenger who acts on her own volition): A gopi who is filled with varieties of ecstatic love hose intense enthusiasm overwhelmed her natural shyness, and who thus, on her own volition carries messages for Lord Krsna and His lovers, is described in the smrti-sastras as svayam-duti.

The svayam-dutis are again divided into three groups:1. vacika; 2. angika; and 3. caksusa.

Vacika (verbal messages): Verbal messages are divided into two types: 1. sabda-vyangya (where a hidden meaning, secret message is concealed n the sounds of the words); and 2. artha-vyangya (where a secret message is concealed in the meaning of the words). these may again be divided in two ways: 1. krsna-visaya; and 2. purahstha-visaya.

Krsna-visaya may be divided into two ways: 1. saksat (direct); and 2. vyapadesa (by a trick).

Saksat: The saksat message may assume various forms, such as: 1. garva (the proud message); 2. aksepa (scolding); and 3. yacna (an appeal).

Garva-sabdottha-vyangaya (the proud message where the words themselves conceal hidden meanings): Radharani to Krsna: My dear Madhava, by association with Lalita I have become very proud, and now I am confident that I am the crest-jewel of all chaste, saintly girls. For Your own good, therefore, I tell you: Do not become a snakelike rake who tries to make advances to Me on this pathway. (My dear Madhava, I am always present in the thoughts of the chaste, saintly gopis, and therefore playful ecstatic love has filled Me with great pride. I have become very proud because the charming hero Krsna is so attached to Me. For Your own good, therefore, I tell You: Do not act like a snake; do not act like a debauchee; and do not try to embrace me.

Garva-arthottha-vyangya (a proud message where the hidden message is contained not in the words, but in the meaning): Syama to Krsna: My dear Krsna, whose limbs are dark like a tamala tree, why do You throw these charming sidelong glances at us? I am Syama, famous as the guru of all pious, chaste girls in all three worlds. If I try to even lightly bind these doe-like gopis with Your sidelong glance, they will become furious, surround You, and violently attack You from all direction.

Aksepa-sabdottha-vyangya (a rebuke with words that conceal a hidden meaning): A gopi says to Krsna: O rascal of Vraja, do not block my path. Turn Your eyes to the horizon and look at the big clouds that have already covered the splendor of the crescent moon. O crooked cheater, my fine beautiful, effulgent red bodice is already wet with rain drops. It is becoming ruined.

O rascal of Vraja, do not block my path, turn Your eyes to my uncovered thighs and breasts decorated with scratch-marks. My splendidly beautiful, youthful body nicely decorated with a glistening bodice, has now become stunned and pale with intense ecstatic love for You.

Aksepa-arthottha-vyangya (a rebuke where a secret message is concealed in the meaning): A gopi says to Krsna: Thief! In my presence You are stealing many fragrant, fresh, blossoming jasmine flowers from this kadamba forest. If You try to steal my splendid necklace, who will protect me? The village of Vraja is far away, and we are alone in this uninhabited forest.

Yaena (an appeal): This kind of message; is divided into two kinds: 1. svartha (with a direct meaning); and 2. parartha (with a hidden meaning).

Svartha-yaena: Radharani to Krsna: O Krsna, I yearn to get some nice flowers. I am now standing behind a beautiful flowering creeper. Please decorate Me with some of it's sumana flowers.

O Krsna, by searching for flowers in Your company I have become filled with amorous desires. I am a charming girl embraced by the blossoming creeper of transcendental beauty. Please satisfy My desires and make Me happy. After Radharani had spoken these words, Krsna took the flowers He had collected and placed them in Her bodice.

Radharani to Krsna: this snake-filled Vrndavana forest is not very safe. Because I neglected to offer flowers to the goddess Katyayani, I am afraid I will be punished by one of these snakes. O Krsna, O Lord who played on the raised hoods of the snake-king Kaliya, I am surrendered to You, I have full faith and trust in You. Please be kind to Me and give me a mantra to counteract the poison of snake-bites. (In this allegory the snakes and poison refer to the amorous desires in Radharani's heart. In this way these words contain a concealed invitation to Krsna. In response to this request Krsna whispered a mantra into Radharani's ear. at that time He took the opportunity to kiss Her cheek, and after that He touched Her bodice as the daksina.

Radharani: My dear Krsna, You are the glorified as the best of all famous men, and You traverse this dense, creeper-filled forest simply to protect the people staying her. O Krsna, O best of the Yadus, please be kind to us. Please be merciful, and show us the path through the forest. We women take shelter of You for we do not know the path that will bring us again to Vraja Village.

Parartha-yacna: A gopi addresses Krsna: When my friend once drank the fresh nectar of Your flute music with the cupped hands of her ears, her mind became very light and she at once fainted.Since then she has become very pale and constantly afflicted with a grave and mysterious disease. She thinks that You are the expert Dhanvantari who can cure her.

A gopi says: O Krsna, O killer of the Madhu demon, I come to You with a message from a dear friend who faithfully loves You. Please try to understand her love for You. she is a cakora bird and she considers Your face to be like the moon. If tonight she does not get the opportunity to drink the moonlight of Your face she will die. her death will cause me great pain.

Vyapadesa (a trick): when words are employed to deceive the hearer, the device is called vyapadesa.

A gopi to Krsna: O elephant blinded with intoxication, why do You leave this celestial Ganges River, glistening with nectarean beauty, and filled with blue lotus flowers and sweetly cooing, intoxicated swans? Why have You taken shelter of this dark, muddied Karmanasa River?

O hero who carries a lotus flower. This is the best of all girls on earth. She glistening with the great nectar of beauty, she speaks like a sweetly cooing, intoxicated swan, her breasts are decorated with musk, and she is very eager to enjoy amorous pastimes with You. O her blinded by folly, why do You ignore her and wallow in the mud of inaction?

A gopi to Krsna: My dear melodious cuckoo bird, why do You wander about Vrndavana forest, ignoring this sweet mango blossom so young that even the bumble-bees remain unaware of it's charming fragrance.

When one pretends to talk to another person, even though the words are actually intended for Lord Krsna who is standing by the speaker and hearing every word, such statements are called purahstha-visaya.

A gopi, in the presence of Krsna, addresses a malati creeper in the following words: O Malati creeper, the bumble-bees call you, wishing to collect the honey of your flowers. For myself I earnestly wish to take a beautiful flower from this fragrant punnaga tree.

O Malati creeper, the bumble-bees call you, wishing to collect the honey of your flowers. For myself, I passionately long to attain this Supreme Personality of godhead, the best of males, decorated with many beautiful, fragrant flowers.

A gopi, in Krsna's presence, addresses govardhana Hill: O Govardhana Hill, you are decorated with many creepers bearing beautiful flowers unpicked by anyone, and you are the home of many peaceful, confident birds. I wish to wander on your slope. Please tell me how I may easily do that.

A gopi, accidentally meeting Krsna in the forest: This Krsna, the Prince of Vraja, is famous for breaking the chastity of pious girls, and I am a delicate girl, unable to resist Him, even with words. Exhausted from walking, and lost in this impenetrable jungle of creepers, I have now stumbled on that Krsna.

angika: These messages consist of: 1. anguli-sphotanam (cracking the fingers); 2. vyaja-sambhramady-anga-samvrti (pretending to hastily cover the body); 3. pada bhu-lekhanam (writing on the ground with the toes); 4. karna-kanduti (scratching the ears); 5. tilaka-kriya (applying tilaka); 6. vesa-kriya (garments) 7. bhruvor dhuti (moving the eyebrows); 8. sekhyam aslesa-tadane (embracing, and also chastising a gopi-friend); 9. damso 'dharasya (biting the lips); 10. haradi-gumpha (stringing necklaces and garlands); 11. mandana-sinjutam (making the ornaments tinkle); 122. dor-muladi-prakatanam (uncovering the shoulders or other parts of the body); 13. krsna-namabhilekhanam (writing Lord Krsna's name); and 14. tarau lataya yoga (twining a creeper around a tree). These are some of the angika-messages the gopis send to Lord Krsna.

Cracking the fingers: Krsna to Subala: Beautiful-eyed Visakha, the best of all chaste and saintly girls, then began to crack her fingernails. Even though I was greatly fatigued, this activity enchanted Me and broke My mind into pieces.

Pretending to be very concerned to cover the limbs of the body: Krsna to subala: As she stood before Me this doe-eyed young gopi repeatedly covered her face and breasts with her sari. I think her heart is sorely wounded by the arrows of cupid.

Scratching the ground with the toe: Krsna to Subala: As soon as I arrived, this beautiful vraja-gopi began to scratch beautiful designs on the ground with her big toe. These designs contained the edicts of cupid, and as I read them I found My mind tightly bound with ropes and forcibly thrown into the valley between the two mountains of this gopi's breasts.

This lotus-eyed vraja-gopi scratched her ear with the tips of her red fingernails. as she scratched, the bangles on her wrist tinkled and her gold earrings playfully moved to and fro. I am now meditating on her ear-scratching.

Kundavali to Krsna: O Krsna decorated with a crown of peacock feathers, as soon as Gandharvika (Radharani) saw You, She at once began to happily decorate Her face, as beautiful as the autumn moon, with splendid tilaka dots of red sindura. As her hand, as splendid as a yellow bandhuka flower, applied the tilaka dots, Her earring swung to and fro. Her red tilaka dots looked just like the love for You that has newly sprouted in Her heart, and is now beginning to push it's new shoots onto the surface of Her transcendental body.

As she stood before Krsna, lotus-eyed Pali beamed with happiness as she playfully and suggestively placed an earring of nectar-filled lavanga flowers on her ear.

Vrnda to Visakha: My dear Visakha, why do you move the cupid's Longbows of your eyebrows in this frightening manner? What has made you so unhappy? After all, with the chains of the beauty of your moonlike face you have just chained up the maddened, ichor-scented elephant of Krsna.

Rupa-manjari to rati-manjari: Look! With a passionate sidelong glance Citra greets Krsna, who has just entered the pathway of her eyes. Her moving golden bracelets tinkling, for a long time she suggestively embraces a gopi-friend, pressing her to her own, round firm breasts.

Sakhi-tadanam: Subala to Krsna: visakha has fixed her mind on conquering You. She now directs the lightning bolts of her restless sidelong glances at Your lotus feet, and she repeatedly strikes a gopi-friend with a cluster of flower.

Adhara-damsa: Syama to Lalita: Now that vraja's Prince Krsna has entered the pathway of her eyes, your moon-faced gopi-friend has become maddened with passion. Look! She is now biting her lips as if she has become angry with a friend.

Haradi-gumpha: Krsna to subala: Who is this blossoming lotus-eyed girl? By gazing at Me from the corners of her eyes she has stolen the jewel of My heart, and placed it in the center of the necklace of pearls she strings.

Mandana-sanjitam: Krsna to Subala: Seeing Me from far away, Syama moves so that her clashing golden bracelets make a tumultuous tinkling sound. I think these bracelets are actually reciting the royal edicts of the monarch Cupid.

Dor-mula-prakatanam: Krsna to Syama: My dear beautiful and auspicious Syama, in this forest of Vrndavana there are many splendid creepers bearing many sweet fruits at their tendrils' ends, but of all these creepers, the braceleted creepers of your arms are especially wonderful, for at their roots (your breasts) they bear two glistening fruits that delight the black cuckoo bird of Krsna.

Krsna-namabhilekhanam: Krsna to Vrnda: O Vrnda, by writing My name in red kunkuma paste on the pages of her cheeks, your gopi-friend has sent Me a very clear message of her intentions.

Tarau Lataya yogah: Krsna addresses the cowherd boy Arjuna: O Arjuna, when I saw the beautiful form of this lotus-eyed vraja-gopi, I became overwhelmed with passion. At that moment, by suggestively wrapping a golden yuthi creeper around a dark tamala tree, she made me mad with happiness.

Caksusa: Erotic signals sent from the eyes are divided into the following varieties: 1. netra-smita (smiling eyes); 2. ardha-mudra (half-closed eyes): 3. netranta-bhrama (roving sidelong glances); 4. kunane (eyes turned away); 5. saciksa (tilting the neck and glancing); 6. vama-drk-preksa (crooked glances); 7. kataksa (sidelong glances).

Netra-smitam: one evening, when Radharani saw Krsna returning from the pasturing ground with the boys and cows, her eyes burst into a smile of great happiness. Seeing this, Syama, wishing to tease her friend, addressed Her: On fickle Radharani, I know very well that when You saw Krsna Your eyes became filled with amorous desire, which You craftily concealed by covering it with this smile upon Your eyes.

Netrardha-mudra: As Radharani gazed at Krsna with half-closed eyes, Her friend Kundavali jokingly addressed Her: Poets say that Krsna's face is the sky and His eyes the sun and moon. My friend, is this not the reason the lotus flowers of Your eyes are half-closed as You gaze upon them. (the lotus flower blossoms in sunlight and contracts in moonlight).

Netranta-bhrama: Vrnda to Syama: Mukunda has now lost interest in the playful duel between the bulls. His mind is no longer fixed on happily playing with His gopa-friends. O Syama, by glancing at you He has become stunned like a tamala tree. How have you become able to make your sidelong glances dance in this wonderful way?

Netranta-kunanam: Nandimukhi to Paurnamasi: As Syama was walking on the Yamuna's shore, Prince Krsna entered the pathway of her eyes. Astonished and embarrassed, she turned away from Him but then furtively glanced at Him from the corner of her eyes.

Saciksa: Krsna to subala: At the Yamuna's shore doe-eyed Radharani tilted Her neck and glanced at Me with dancing eyes. In this way She severely wounded My heart with the sharp point of cupid's arrow.

Vama-drk-preksa: One time Lalita noticed on Radharani's body the clear symptoms of Her enjoying amorous pastimes with Krsna.

Lalita then addressed Her: My dear Radharani, you appear to be helplessly tossed about by the moon-agitated tidal waves of happiness moving in the dark nectar ocean of Krsna. In a very excited condition You have repeatedly drunk the nectar of that ocean with the cupped hands of Your crooked eyes. In this way You have become a great pitcher filled with that transcendental nectar.

Kataksa: The pupils of the eyes may move with wonderful, expert quickness, going from place to place. Glances from the corners of such eyes are called kataksa.

Either a gopi-messenger, or Krsna Himself, addresses Radharani: O golden-complexioned Gandharvika, the enchanting bumble-bees of the pupils of Your eyes dart to and fro, repeatedly resting on the lotus flower in Krsna's ear. The pastimes of this bumble-bee have agitated the mind of Krsna and made Him completely forget everything, even His own self. Now where is His talking about Your lotuslike gopi rivals? Now where is His talking about Padma's friend Candravali? He has forgotten them all.

In this way we have given a brief glimpse of the numberless kinds of messages sent by the gopis, and also, when appropriate, by Lord Krsna, the enemy of the Agha demon. Those learned in the mellows of transcendental love explain that these messages are outward manifestations of the internal ecstatic love of the gopis.

Duti (the gopi-messengers): The gopi-messengers are very trustworthy, and can be depended on implicitly, even if their own lives ar e placed in danger. They are affectionate and eloquent.

These beautiful-eyebrowed gopis are divided into three categories: 1. amitartha; 2. nisrstartha; 3. aptra-hari (letter-carriers).

Amitartha: A gopi who, from one or two symptoms can understand the love of Krsna and a certain gopi, and who then proceeds to voluntarily arrange for their meeting, is called amitartha.

A gopi to Krsna: O killer of the Baka demon, I could se the message of love written on Your mononlike face, and I could also see Radharani futilely carry the armor of Her modesty that had been broken to pieces by the arrows of Your sidelong glances. I could understand by seeing. I did not need a verbal explanation.

Nisrstartha: A gopi-messenger who, shunning many complicated strategies, with a single logical argument is able to unite Lord Krsna and His gopi-beloved, is called nisrstartha.

A gopi addresses Krsna: O crusher of Aghasura, the transcendental virtues of Radharani are like a host of splendid priceless jewels that have no equal in all the three worlds fie on me! I am a fool for trying to describe these jewels to You, whose heart is as hard as diamond.

patra-hari: A gopi-messenger who carries letters between the youthful divine couple is called patra-hari.

A gopi to Krsna: O mukunda, please hear this message You lotus-eyed vraja-gopi friend gave me in a secluded place. She says to You: O rascal, why did You disturb me as I was enjoying the jubilant festival of deep sleep? Was this right or proper?

The gopi-messengers in Vraja may also be considered in the following way: 1. slipa-kari; 2. daivajna; 3. lingini; 4. paricarika; 5. dhatreyi; 6. vana-devi; and 7. sakhi.

Silpakari (an artist): A gopi to Krsna: The gopis then said to me, You are a second Visvakarma, appearing in a female form.Please quickly draw a picture of the most handsome man you know in this world. Requested in this way, I drew a picture of You. When Citra saw You in the picture, she became struck with wonder, and the eyes of all the other gopis also became filled with wonder.

Daivajna (an astrologer): A gopi sent by Radharani read Krsna's horoscope: At the time of Your birth the auspicious star Rohini was resting in Vrsabha. The calculation of Your horoscope makes me very happy. O Krsna, whose form is like a dark rain-cloud, I predict that you will become illuminated by a lightning flash and a full moon with wonderfully beautiful eyebrows. (Radharani's).

Lingini (an ascetic): A gopi-messenger who dresses like an ascetic, as Paurnamasi does, is called lingini.

Paurnamasi to Radharani: Honest daughter, do not become upset. I am an old ascetic expert at reciting mystic charms. I shall become Your messenger and the Prince of Vraja will be brought under Your dominion.

paricarika (Maidservants): Lavanga-manjari and Bhanumati are the leaders of the paricarika gopi-messengers.

Lavanga-manjari to Radharani: Attracted by the jewels of Your transcendental qualities, Krsna has left the other gopis and appeared before Your eyes. O my queen, pease tell me: what else may this maidservant do for You?

Dhatreyi (the Daughter of Radharani's nurse): A gopi to Krsna: My mother nursed Radharani in Her childhood, and we are just like two sisters. My dear Krsna, I have come here to tell You something very wonderful. Although Radharani's complexion is generally as splendid as gold, now that She is pining with love for You She has become thin and pale, just like the white crescent moon.

Vana-devi (a forest-demigoddess): A gopi, sent by Vrnda to break Radharani's strong pride: I was born as a demigoddess in this forest. Out of love for You I have appeared to You at different times as Your sister, mother-in-law, gopi-friend, and sister-in-law. Now please lift your neck. Be kind, move Your eyebrows and send various amorous signals to Krsna. In this way Krsna, the elephant of the cowherd boys, will transform Your breasts into the bulging frontal lobes of His elephant-beloved.

Sakhi (the friend who becomes a messenger): Without any duplicity the sakhis have more love for each other than for their own selves. They are fully worthy of each others complete trust, and they are equal in age, appearance, and other attributes.

Visakha describes the pitiful condition of lovesick Radharani to Krsna: I don't lament for my dear friend Radharani, who is now on the verge of death, mortally wounded by the waves of the sharpened arrows of Your glances. I only lament that when She finally dies and goes to the incomparable supreme destination, the eyes of this entire material world will become useless for the lack of being able to see Her.

Messages are divided into two kinds: 1. vacya (where the meaning is presented in a straightforward way); 2. vyangya (where the message contains a hidden meaning).

Vacya: Tungavidya to Radharani: Curse me, hit me, rebuke me, throw me outside or attack me many times, still my mind does not waver from it's resolve. I shall now go to bring Krsna here. My friend, I speak the truth,: a gopi who will not work to see You reunited with Krsna, lives in vain. It is better for her to simply give up her breath and die at once.

Vyangya: A sakhi to Radharani: My friend, I can guess that You desire to be anointed with fragrant krsnaguru sandalwood paste. I shall now go to the market to purchase it.

My friend, I can guess that You desire to be anointed with the fragrant aguru scent known as Krsna. I shall now go to that amorous hero and bring Him to You.

A gopi to Radharani: My child, why are You so thirsty? Listen and I shall tell You of a place You may visit to relieve Your thirst. My dear cakori bird, at this moment the splendid, pure, reddish moon waits for You on the eastern horizon.

Krsne vacyam: Visakha to Krsna: Radharani is the most beautiful girl in all the three worlds. After Brahma had created Her, He became struck with wonder at Her unprecedented beauty. My dear Krsna, this Radharani has sent me with a message for You.

vyangyam: Two kinds of vyangya messages are sent by Lord Krsna: 1. priya-purah (directly spoken to the gopi-beloved); and 2. priya-pascat (given to the gopi-beloved in an indirect way). These messages may again be divided into two kinds: 1. saksat; and 2. vyapadesa.

Visakha, in the presence of Radharani, speaks to Krsna: O Madhava, this peahen is very difficult to please. She will not come near me. Please be kind and quickly take her with Your hand.

Visakha, in the presence of Her gopi-friend, speaks to Krsna: O Krsna, many young girls in Vraja are eager to enjoy pastimes with You. Unlike them, my envious friend here is not at all agitated with the desire to enjoy with You. In fact, when she sees You, the spiritual master of all rogues and cheaters, she becomes very angry. Look, she is now quickly placing many ardha-candra arrows of angry sidelong glances on the long bows of her eyebrows.

Visakha, in the presence of Krsna and His gopi-beloved: O kadamba-tree, O favorite of Balarama, this splendid and fragrant madhavi creeper has now left it's hard dhava tree. Does she not approach you now, yearning to take shelter of You?

O Krsna, O dear friend of Balarama, this splendid, fragrant gopi, who has conquered Your heart, has now left her harsh husband. Does she not approach You now, yearning to take shelter of You?

A gopi says to Krsna: O Mukunda, You are eternally fond of the surabhi cows and You are splendidly decorated with the glistening Kaustubha jewel. Camapakalata is glorified by all the beautiful and charming gopis, and she is both fragrant and splendid. O Krsna as splendid as a dark rain-cloud, You do not appear very handsome or glorious without the company of the new-lightning-flash-like Campakalata.

Lalita to bumble-bee: My dear bumble-bee, north of this lofty mountain is a great lake. On the shore of that lake is a large forest, and in the midst of that forest is a charming cottage of creepers. At the door of that cottage is a blossoming malati creeper (Radharani) that fills every direction with a delightful fragrance. My dear bumble-bee, that malati-creeper is now gazing at the path waiting for you to arrive.

The heroine may ask her friend to deliver the message to Krsna in a particular way. These different ways are now described in the following explanation.

The heroine may ask that the message may be delivered in one of the two ways: 12. kriya-sadhya (an activity); 2. vacika (a verbal request).

Kriya-sadhya: Nandimukhi to Paurnamasi: Slender Radharani stares at a new rain-cloud in the sky, and stretched to embrace it. Is it that, without speaking a word, She is giving her gopi-friend a message to deliver to Krsna.

Briefly hearing the sound of Krsna's flute, slender, charming Radharani became very agitated at heart. Although She did not ask Her gopi-friend to bring Krsna, She perspired and the hairs of Her body stood erect in ecstasy.

Vacika: as previously explained, the verbal request to send the message may be divided into two types: 1. kvacya (the straightforward request), and 2. vyangya (the request expressed in words containing a hidden meaning).

Radharani to Visakha: My friend, you are My own life-breath moving outside My body. Within you great expertise and eloquence reside. you are not unqualified as I am. For this reason I request you to speak with Krsna and make Him become pleased with Me.

Vyangya: the vyangya request is of two kinds: 1. sabda-vyangya (where the hidden meaning is contained in the words); and 2. artha-vyangya (where the meaning itself has a hidden intention).

Radharani to Vrnda: My dear doe-eyed friend, I do not wish to learn any art or become skilled at any particular thing. I only wish to learn from the beautiful-eyebrowed gopis the art of tying braids. (the treasure of who is Kesava).

O gopi-friend, my heart has no desire for the best ruby. It only wishes to wear a beautiful diamond (Krsna) in the middle of this necklace.

Artha-vyangya: This kind of request may be presented in various ways, for example: 1. As a rebuke to the husband or another person; 2. As praise of Lord Krsna or others; 3. As a description of a certain place or thing.

Radharani to Visakha: I have offended the creator Brahma, and for this reason My heart is not at all attracted to My husband.

This forest by the Yamuna's shore is now violently attacking My eyes and causing Me great distress. O friend, why do you not instruct this forest to not attack Me in this way?

Radharani to Visakha: My friend, you are My won life-breath situated apart from My body. Although chaste girls will never glorify another man, I must ask you: How much sweetness is in this Krsna, the Prince of Vraja? Even from a far distance, His bodily splendor crushes My eyes with flood of nectar.

A gopi to her friend: My dear friend Candala, now that the rains of childhood have fallen from me, Vraja's Prince Krsna has become the hero of my heart. My friend you are very expert at delivering messages. Please do not neglect me at this crucial time.

Radharani to Her gopi-friend: I have wandered now for a long time to collect flowers in this tree-and creeper-filled Vrndavana forest, and now I am very tired. I shall now go alone into this grove and rest for a moment. In the meantime please go and bring Me a glower(Krsna) from the Yamuna's shore.

Radharani to Visakha: The spring season and the moon have combined to make this forest on the Yamuna's shore very beautiful. My body is also very nicely decorated by it's friend youthfulness. My friend, at this moment what more need be said?

My Gurudeva has translated Ujjvala Nilamani and translated some commentaries of Srila Visvanath Chakravati Thakura ,I have been told Bhanu Swami has also translated this book as well I have not yet read neither , Ujjvala Nilamani continues where Nectar of Devotion ,Bhaktirasamrta Sindhu stops.Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Prabhupada stated after one has chanted 64 rounds for many years all the books of the 6 Goswamis should be read and understood properly. In ISKCON we are focusing on Srila Prabhupadas books , many  devotees , or most devotees have not read all of Srila Prabhupadas books.My Gurudeva gave so many books to help devotees understand higher aspects of bhakti to those devotees that like myself have read Srila Prabhupadas books many times. 

Srila Prabhupada and my Gurudeva where also messengers of Lord Caitanya and Sri Sri Radha Krsna so was HH Gaura Govinda Maharaja .

We can assist  them in giving Krsnas message to the whole world by distributing Srila Prabhupadas books therefore Srila Prabhupada requested:

So kindly help me. This is my request. Print as many books in as many languages and distribute throughout the whole world. Then the Krishna consciousness movement will automatically increase." Arrival address, Los

The spiritual master is very dear, because he is expert in assisting the gopis, who at different times make different tasteful arrangements for the perfection of Radha and Krsna's conjugal loving affairs within the groves of Vrndavana. I offer my most humble obeisances unto the lotus feet of such a spiritual master.

 

There has been some discussion about who Srila Prabhupada is in Gaura and Krsna lila,  his answer to this question was if you knew you would faint ,So we are waiting to become qualified and faint when such realization will bestowed upon us . Srila Sridhara Swami Srila Prabhupadas godbrother when asked about Srila Prabhupadas internal identity said he can be in Madhurya or Sakya Rasa,The only official statement made by Srila Prabhupada is on his prayer on the Jaladutta where he addressed Krsna as Bhai brother and requested Krsna to allow him to tend cows with Him, that is of course Sakhya Rasa.

 

Lets leave that subject ,Srila Prabhupada requested every single member in ISKCON to distribute his books , see SB 7.9.44 purport this is a transcendental order of Srila Prabhupada .We have to each see how we are following this instruction to not only teach and live by Srila Prabhupadas books but to distribute them widely and become messengers of Srila Prabhupada .

When Prataparudra Maharaja massaged the lotuslegs and feet of Lord Caitanay during Ratha Yatra he chanted the whole Gopi Gita (the gopis prayer to Krsna in seperation from the 10 canto of Srimad Bhagavatam) to please Lord Caitanya : 

 

these are some of the verses: 

 

(1)

tava kathāmṛtaḿ tapta-jīvanaḿ
kavibhir īḍitaḿ kalmaṣāpaham
śravaṇa-mańgalaḿ śrīmad ātataḿ
bhuvi gṛṇanti ye bhūri-dā janāḥ

 

(2)

jayati te 'dhikaḿ janmanā vrajaḥ
śrayata indirā śaśvad atra hi
dayita dṛśyatāḿ dikṣu tāvakās
tvayi dhṛtāsavas tvāḿ vicinvate

 

(3)

śarad-udāśaye sādhu-jāta-sat-
sarasijodara-śrī-muṣā dṛśā
surata-nātha te 'śulka-dāsikā
vara-da nighnato neha kiḿ vadhaḥ

 

(4)

viṣa-jalāpyayād vyāla-rākṣasād
varṣa-mārutād vaidyutānalāt
vṛṣa-mayātmajād viśvato bhayād
ṛṣabha te vayaḿ rakṣitā muhuḥ

 

(5)

na khalu gopīkā-nandano bhavān
akhila-dehinām antarātma-dṛk
vikhanasārthito viśva-guptaye
sakha udeyivān sātvatāḿ kule

 

TRANSLATION

1) The nectar of Your words and the descriptions of Your activities are the life and soul of those suffering in this material world. These narrations, transmitted by learned sages, eradicate one's sinful reactions and bestow good fortune upon whoever hears them. These narrations are broadcast all over the world and are filled with spiritual power. Certainly those who spread the message of Godhead are most munificent. [9]

 

2) The gopis said: O beloved, Your birth in the land of Vraja has made it exceedingly glorious, and thus Indira, the goddess of fortune, always resides here. It is only for Your sake that we, Your devoted servants, maintain our lives. We have been searching everywhere for You, so please show Yourself to us. [1]

 

3) O Lord of love, in beauty Your glance excels the whorl of the finest, most perfectly formed lotus within the autumn pond. O bestower of benedictions, You are killing the maidservants who have given themselves to You freely, without any price. Isn't this murder [2]

 

4) O greatest of personalities, You have repeatedly saved us from all kinds of danger - from poisoned water, from the terrible man-eater Agha, from the great rains, from the wind demon, from the fiery thunderbolt of Indra, from the bull demon and from the son of Maya Danava. [3]

 

5) You are not actually the son of the gopi Yasoda, O friend, but rather the indwelling witness in the hearts of all embodied souls. Because Lord Brahma prayed for You to come and protect the universe, You have now appeared in the Satvata dynasty. [4]

When Lord Caitanya heard the Tapta kathamrita sloka he stood up and embraced Prataparudra Maharaja .Those who distribute Srila Prabhupadas books as their main service in this lifetime will be personally embraced by Lord Caitanya in this lifetime or at the time of deaths.Provided one also remains a strict devotee. 

 

There seems to be little more to be said as not to make this to long, but I like to mention Sri Vrindadevi carries messages to Radha Krsna , She arranges along with Yoga maya to (Purnamasi ) for the many pastimes of Radha and Krsna to meet. In the morning Vrindadevi sends her messengers Suka and Sari female parrots to wake up Radha Krsna as The divine couple is resting in Nikunjas at the Yamuna.She sends so many kind of birds and a female monkey to send a message to Radha Krsna , that it is time to go back to Yavat for Radharani and for Krsna to go back to Nandagrama.

 

JATILA IS COMING.

 

Subala is a priya narma Sakha he also bring messages to Radha from Krsna and sometimes he arranges Their meeting like in this pastime:

Sri Advaita Acarya send a confidential message to Lord Caitanya :" The market place is full of rice" .You have spread love of Krsna and now my dear Lord you can go back to your abode in Goloka Vrindavana.

 But conditioned souls in the material world are suffering so they need Srila Prabhupadas books , Srila Prabhupada said the chanting is not enough you need to distribute books to them to awaken their Krsna conciousness : 

 

“I am in due receipt of your weekly sankirtana newsletters. I am always happy to hear of increasing book sales. These reports are very encouraging to me. Our real business is to print and distribute books. By doing this business, you are all becoming recognized by Krsna. Please try to continue working so nicely for Krsna, following the rules and regulations, chanting sixteen rounds, and studying my books and you will finish your business in this material world in this life and enter into the spiritual world to live with Krsna eternally. Don't become discouraged by any so-called problems. Make your program simple, that is to say, always make sure that you are somehow or other engaged in the Krsna's service, and the best service is preaching or engaging others in Krsna's service. So continue in this way and be happy.”
