Camatkāra Candrikā - Kṛṣṇāhnika-kaumudī

In his Camatkāra Candrikā, Śrīla Chakravartīpāda presents four more very unusual pastimes that are simply 'camatk āra' (amazing).Hence, when sampling the diversity of the Goswamis' līlā-kāvya we find that Rādhā Govinda's madhyāhna milan can happen in numerous ways. Perhaps the līlā of picking flowers is the most common. But in Śrī Rūpa's Dāna keli-kaumudī and Śrī Raghunāth's Dāna keli-cintāmaṇi we see that Rādhā can meet Kṛṣṇa while going to deliver ghī at Bhāguri Muni's yajña at Govinda Kuṇḍa. On another occasion, a meeting takes place at Mānasa Gaṅgā when Govinda induces Rādhā and her Sakhīs to enjoy a boat cruse on the lake.

And if Jatila should keep Rādhā locked up at home, Kṛṣṇa sends Subala to search for his lost calf. But when Subala begs Jaṭilā for a drink to quench his thirst, she asks Rādhārani to fetch water from the well. Then Subala goes and secretly exchanges clothes with her-and Rādhā escapes dressed like Subala while clasping a baby-calf to her chest!

The previous Rasa-analysis described the events leading up to Rādhā Kṛṣṇa's midday milan from Kṛṣṇāhnika-kaumudī. So, let's return to that narration and see what happens next:
Aho! Rasika Vilāsī Nikuñja Nāgara steps our from hiding! And he stuns the Vraja kiśorīs who are like bright illuminations of lightning! As Kṛṣṇa's patience was looted by overhearing their tender, rasamaya kathā, he is eager for keli vilāsa!

Thus, slowly striding over to the gopīs, twirling his golden necklace (as though he were twirling their minds), he sweetly exclaims, "O hey pretty faced ones! Are you well? Have you arrived without difficulty? As I am your dear friend-just tell me what I can do for you? Don't be shy, I'm eager to receive your order. O hey youthful ones! As the proprietor for this sacred forest, I consider you my noble guests. 

Aha! I'm lucky to have your auspicious company. So now I shall perform your befitting pūjā; and don't be shy-for you will be faultless in accepting it."Then a gopī sarcastically answers. 'Aha! We see, you're the famous gentleman, Vrajendra-nandana! And certainly, you're vaṁśa-pāvana (the peoples' saviour)! So, hey Vraja-kula-candra, we're unfit to receive your pūjā."
But another Sakhī says, "If someone has many great qualities, we shouldn't condemn him for a single fault. So why not accept this Guṇa-nidhi's pūjā?

As Rādhā overhears the enchanting arguments that chide and support her Priyatama, she mentally congratulates these two Sakhīs for increasing Kṛṣṇa's pleasure. But then a Sakhī challenges: "Hey Govinda! You're lacking good sense! Everyone knows that this forest belongs to the deer, the birds and to everyone in general. So why do you proudly claim that it's yours?"

Kṛṣṇa answers, "Although everyone uses the forest, the first inhabitant is entitled to claim ownership, and this is a well known fact. Yet as you're all fir for my devī-pūjā (Kandarpa keli), I am not in the mood to argue with you."

Seeing the debate reaching a stalemate, Padma-locanā Rādhā congratulates both parties. And with irrepressible happiness, she smiles, and pridelessly exclaims, "Look here Sakhīs! Just take my advice: Let's give up our dry arguing. After all, he is one, and we are many, so why be unfair or jealous? This fortunate Vraja-yuva Raja is certainly our mānya-pātra (worthy of our respect)."

Kṛṣṇa answers, "Hey Sumukhi Rādhe, I'm telling the truth-you and I are non different! And I am very proud of this, Oh Auspicious one!"
Hearing Kṛṣṇa's words, Rādhā contemplates: "Oh! Because I said Kṛṣṇa is our mānya-pātra he must be speaking these sweet words?" Kṛṣṇa's submissive entreaties dissolve the pride and secretiveness lurking within the Vraja sundarīs' prema, just as bubbles floating on a river dissolve on its onward course. 

Thus Vana-vihāra begins.
Here Kavi Karṇapura depicts Rādhā as a dakṣina nāyikā, which is a rare side of her personality. In Ujjvala-Nīlamaṇi, this is called bhava viparyai, when a nāyikā acts contrary to her nature to surprise her beloved. Ujjvala-Nīlamaṇi lists 365 different types of nāyikās. Because Rādhā is Kṛṣṇa's mula prakriti, the Source of all his consorts, she can intrigue him in any of these ways.
