When Murali-Manohar encounters the Vraja Gopis, their golden splendour mingles with His blue sapphire-like complexion and makes Him look like an emerald.
“Sri Krishna looked exceptionally beautiful on the Rasa dance-floor and He dazzled like an exquisite emerald amidst golden gems.” - (S.B. 10.33.6)
“Srimati Radharani’s lightning-like lustre makes Sri Krishna’s splendour resemble an emerald and Sri Krishna’s effulgence too lends a brilliant green shade to Sri Radha.Only when they reside separately will they express golden and blue splendours respectively.
– (Alankar-kaustubha)
**** This is the reason why Srimati is experiencing His complexion as emerald-like. His naturally sweet face is lit up with an appealing smile. His eyes are large and reaching the ears. They are moving restlessly and His eyebrows are dancing. His eyes are thirstily searching for Her.
