## English whole-pad meaning
Nandakumāra alone is our Lord. On the infinite brilliance of His divine blue body, I sacrifice the gemstone, sapphire. He is standing in the shady bowers of Vṛindāvana, gracefully curving His crown, neck, waist and feet. He is wearing pītāmbara shining like gold. The beauty of His swinging peacock-feathered crown is indescribable, on which I sacrifice myself impromptu. A lathi is placed on His shoulder, His curved eye-brows are extremely charming and around His waist is tied a beautiful kāchhanī. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says that the greatest paramahansas like Shuka, Sanaka etc. drink the nectar of Shyāmasundara’s beauty by living in Vṛindāvana in the form of trees and creepers.

Hindi meanings are whole-pad meanings from the supplied scan. Five are unavailable. 1009 source-derived English meanings and Roman transliterations are available for Prem Ras Madira, from the supplied English Parts 1 and 2.

## Published-book provenance
This site presents transcriptions and scans of published devotional literature. It does not compose new verses or meanings. OCR errors may remain.
Decorative Madhuri and Bhakti Challenge illustrations were generated with Codex. They are separate from published source text, original scans and publisher artwork. Library covers are individually credited supplied-PDF cover/source-page images or publisher-representative artwork; the pictured cover does not establish edition equivalence. [Library cover provenance](https://radhey.shreyam1008.com.np/content/books/index.json).
Prem Ras Madira is a published work by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, with a print history preceding this website. The supplied companion Gutka identifies Radha Govind Samiti as publisher and its eighth edition as 15 July 2011 (PDF page 3, printed page II).
The official biography says Prem Ras Madira was published by 1955; a JKP article gives 1960 for its first Hindi publication. These sources disagree, so this collection does not assert a single verified first-publication year. The 2011 date identifies the supplied companion Gutka edition, not the first publication or every scanned edition.
