[3] tatra śrī-kṛṣṇaḥ svān uvāca-aho, pratyekam evāsmākaṃ labdha-varṇāv imau karṇāv eva puru-gurū abhūtām yābhyām eṣāṃ mahāśayānāṃ guṇānubhavam āsādyāmahe sma | kiyad vā manaḥ sampraśaṃsayā mānayāmaḥ, yena tatraiva sāmodaṃ prodasāhayiṣmahi? caraṇābhyāṃ paritaḥ kiṃ nācaritam, yābhyāṃ manoratha-patham alambhayiṣmahi? locana-yugalāya rocanaṃ kim anyad vitarāmaḥ, yena gurūpadiṣṭaṃ tan-miṣṭam anubhāvyāmahe? nāsādvayāt kiṃ nāsādayāma, yenānenāmodena sāmodīkriyāmahe? tvacaḥ kiṃ vacaḥ kathayāmaḥ, yayā tam idam adaḥ-sambandhi-gandhavāham avagāhyāmahe? ātmani tu subhaga-nāma-dheyaṃ bhāga-dheyaṃ kiyad ādheyatāṃ vindeta, yasya tat-tat-phala-valayenāntar bahir apy āvriyāmahe?

[3] There, glorious Kṛṣṇa said to his companions: "Ah, for each one of us, these two ears, attaining great wisdom, have become weighty teachers, by which we have attained an experience of the virtues of these great-souled ones! How much indeed can we honor our mind with praise, by which we might be encouraged with joy right there? What was not traversed all around by the two feet, by which we were brought to the path of our desires? What other delight can we bestow upon the pair of eyes, by which we might experience that sweetness taught by our teachers? What may we not obtain from our two nostrils, by which we are filled with joy by this fragrance? What speech can we utter for the skin, by which we can bathe in this fragrant wind related to them? As for the soul, how much attribution would a fortune bearing an auspicious name find, by the ring of fruits of which we are encompassed within and without?
