CC Madhya 13.121Vraja-smaraṇaVipralambhaRādhā-bhāva

“ ‘That very personality who stole away my heart during my youth is now again my master. These are the same moonlit nights of the month of Caitra. The same fragrance of mālatī flowers is there, and the same sweet breezes are blowing from the kadamba forest. In our intimate relationship, I am also the same lover, yet still my mind is not happy here. I am eager to go back to that place on the bank of the Revā under the Vetasī tree. That is my desire.’”

Study note: A poetic expression of the desire to return to the former place of intimate association, used within the Ratha-yātrā narration.

CC Antya 20.39ŚikṣāṣṭakaVipralambhaVraja-smaraṇa

“ ‘My Lord Govinda, because of separation from You, I consider even a moment a great millennium. Tears flow from My eyes like torrents of rain, and I see the entire world as void.’

Study note: The seventh prayer: the intense experience of separation.

Search covers chapter titles, feelings, themes and concept names — not every verse or purport. To search the verses themselves, use Ask Caitanya Caritamrta.

Concept links, journeys and bridges are an editorial study map. Only the verses — in Śrīla Prabhupāda's translation — are the text itself. Prema, bhāva, mahābhāva and vipralambha are devotional terms, not psychological labels.
