“Glorious is Sri Govardhana, the great King in the dynasty of hills, whom the gopis praised as the best of Krsna’s servants; who was resting for seven days in Krsna’s lotus hand and whom Krsna made worshipable by disrupting Indra’s sacrifice.”

“I offer my prostrated obeisances to the Govardhana Hill, who was kept for seven days in the lotus hand of the infallible Lord Krsna and who served Him with his own paraphernalia—swarms of black bees and an abundance of delicious fruits and roots.”
