to BVKS Sanga, (Krsna) Katha, (ISKCON) Lipa Dalmacija, Prabhupada Said
To keep the gopis in Vrndavana satisfied, Lord Balarama stayed there
continuously for two months, namely the months of Caitra (March–April) and
Vaisakha (April–May). For those two months He kept Himself among the gopis, and
He passed every night with them in the forest of Vrndavana to satisfy their
desire for conjugal love. Thus Balarama also enjoyed the rasa dance with the
gopis during those two months. Since the season was springtime, the breeze on
the bank of the Yamuna was blowing very mildly, carrying the aroma of different
flowers, especially the flower known as kaumudi. Moonlight filled the sky and
spread everywhere, and thus the banks of the Yamuna appeared very bright and
pleasing, and Lord Balarama enjoyed the company of the gopis there.
