Dear Professor Deshpande,

I had expressed my humble suggestion about Radha ji.It's a matter of spiritual bliss and nothing else.As far as I know Radha is worshipped with Krisna everywhere.Your poetry is not a general one but it should be considered a devotional poetry.Hence my advice is not aimed at any narrow thinking but  is to deepen   the love emotion.A few years back Prof.Rasik vihari Joshi has also written a lot on Radha-Krisna Bhakti.Bhakti poetry has to be preserved within the bounds of Indian Culture.Nothing more to write.All are here Sanskrit Scholars.Jaya Radhe Shyama.Pranamaami punah punah.

Continuing my Krishna verses:

Krishna says to me:

नाहं कश्चिच्चित्ररूपो न परोक्षो न वाद्भुत: ।

समाहिते तु ते चित्ते मां पश्येस्त्वं यथास्थितम् ।।५१८।।

I am not some strange form, remote or mysterious. With a calm mind, you will see me as I am.

हृदि संवेदना तेऽहं, श्रद्धा तेऽहं, मतिस्तथा ।

चिन्ता तेऽहं, गतिस्तेऽहं, गम्योऽहं न कथं तव ।।५१९।।

I am the sensation in your heart, your faith and your intelligence. I am your thought and your movement. How am I not known to you?

आपद्गतो यदा मित्र मामाह्वयसि ते गिरा ।

न दूरेऽहं समीपस्थस्तवाहमवने रत: ।।५२०।।

Fallen in some difficulty, O friend, when you call me with your words, I am not far away. I am near you and busy protecting you.

तव दु:खानि जानामि सुखानि च सुहृत् सदा ।

व्यतीत्य मां भूतलेऽस्मिन् न दु:खं न च वा सुखम् ।।५२१।।

O friend, I know your sorrows and happiness. In this world, no sorry or happiness transcends me.
