TRANSLATION
The devotees who have a relationship with Krsna are like the swans and cakravaka birds that play in the forest of lotus flowers. The buds of those lotus flowers are the pastimes of Krsna, and they are edibles for the swanlike devotees. Lord Sri Krsna is always engaged in His transcendental pastimes; therefore the devotees, following in the footsteps of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, can always eat those lotus buds, for they are the pastimes of the Lord.
