Re: Offerings to Lord Krishna

Nityaananda! Gauraanga! Hare Krishna! Thank you Igor for the nice instructive verse from Shri Chaitanya Charitamrita.

"One maidservant placed betel leaves in Their mouths.

The betel nuts and leaves in the Lord's Pastimes and Goloka are transcendentally pure and not a mundane mild intoxicant like those we find in this material world. Same applies for the divine Varuni beverage also. Even the intoxication in the spiritual pastimes is transcendentally blissful and not harmful like the intoxication in this material world.

Daaso'smi, Swami Gaurangapada.
