Among the Sakas Deva Prashta is known as the best quotation from Bhakti Rasamruta Sindhu Priya Sakas Dear friends, those who are the same age as Krishna, nurturing friendship, unmixed with any other mood are called Priyasakas. Sridham Sudham Dham, Vasudham Kinkini, Stoker, Krishna, Humshu Badra, Sena Vilasi, Pundarika, Vitanka and Kalavinka are some of the Priyasakas Prabhupada's translation of the above mentioned verse. The more confidential friends are called Priyasaka and are almost Krishna's age because of their very confidential friendship. Their behavior is only on the basis of pure friendship, the behavior of other friends on the ground of paternal love or servitude. But the basic principle of confidential friend is simply friendship on an equal level. Some of the confidential friends are as follows. Sridham Sudham, Dam, Vasudham Kinkini, Stoker, Krishna, Amshu Badra, Sena Vilasi, Pundarika, Vitanka and Kalavinka.

Wow. Amazing. The Priyasakas give pleasure to Keshava by hand to hand combat, stick fighting and other sports. Prabhupada's translation of the above mentioned verse from Bhakti Rasamruta Sindhu by their various activities in different pastime all of these friends used to give transcendental pleasure to Krishna. So this Sakurasa is one of those relationships with Krishna that gives Krishna great pleasure.

Now Krishna think that's the dream person, you know, he really worships him every eyes.

So now Krishna being the supreme personality of Godhead, everybody worships him. Everybody would ask for some blessings.

But Vrindavan is his place. Krishna loves her.

So in his place Vrindavan Golok Vrindavan People love Krishna not because he's the supreme personality of Godhead.

I love him for what he is.

They love him for what he is.

He's right beautiful. He's charming. He's hindering us.

He's beautiful. He's beautiful. He's charming. He's humorous. Among other things and many other things.

Salt. They love Krishna for that.

So they love Krishna for that.

And they think that they're equal with Krishna.

And they think that they're equal with Krishna. Like friends. Just like friends.

And so they engage in different sports.

So they engage in so they engage in different sports with Krishna.

Wrestling hand to hand combat, stick fighting.

Wrestling hand to hand combat, stick fighting. Other things and other things.

Salt. That's why Krishna God's hands on Vajra to be used to just be with his devotees.

So in this way Krishna gets transcendental pleasure to be with his devotees. Okay. Quotation from Bhakti Rasamruta Sindhu description about Priya Narma Sakas the Priya Narmasakas are superior to the Sufrats, Sakas and Priyasakas and possess a very special Bhava. They engage in the most confidential plus times. Subal, Arjun, Gandharva, Vasantha and Ujjwala are some of the Priya Narmasakas. There are other friends who are still more confidential. They're called Priya Narmasaka or intimate friends. Counted among the Priya Narmasakas are Subal, Arjun, Gandhara, Vasantha and Ujjwala. I forgot to put Prabhupada translation. Anyway, it's all right.

All right. So amongst friends there are different grades.

So anyway, among friends there are different grades.

And different relationships.

And different relationships.

So some of these friends of Krishna are engaging very complimental activities.

So some of these friends of Krishna, they engaged in very confidential activities. So blessings to all of you. Krishna, Matirastu.
