Seeing the Intention Behind the Approach
“The prostitute replied, “First let me have union with him once; then the second time I shall take your constable with me to arrest him.””
What the purport teaches
- The prostitute proposed first having union with Haridāsa Ṭhākura without the constable present.
- She said she would take the constable on a second visit so that he could arrest Haridāsa Ṭhākura.
- Her reply changed the timing of the plan, but it still served the intended arrest.
