Obeisances unto Sri Caitanya-candra, the giver of the mellow of the highest love of Godhead, who is the embodiment of blissful pastimes, and who is so beautiful, having a dazzling luster, like gold. (Caitanya-candramrtam)

The charming sweetness of Sri Sri Radha-Madhava is enhanced by Their mutual exchange of pure and playful dancing glances upon each other. That sweetness has anointed Them with the greatest skill in delighting each other with the pastimes of madhurya-rasa, and that sweetness has made Them intoxicated with the sweet fragrance of the nectarean love They bear for each other. May that sweetness of the black and gold forms of Sri Sri Radha-Madhava continually overtake my thoughts. (Krsna-sandarbha)
