Sri Krishna is Bhagavan, full in all opulences, yet upon seeing those autumn nights, perfumed by unseasonably blossomed jasmine flowers, He turned His mind toward loving affairs. To fulfill His purposes He took shelter of His Yogamaya.
I bow my head down to Sri Paurnamasi, who is worshiped by the entire universe for her compassion and venerated by the people of Vrindavan, for she is wise in the ways of using her powers to increase Radha and Krishna’s enjoyment of loving exchanges. (Paurnamasi pranam mantra)
