the translation of the slokam 'kastoori tilakam' is not proper.
ReplyDeletefor example 'gopastree parivestito' means one who is surrounded by gopaikas' and not to mean one who gives salvation to gopikas.
kindly get it properly translated and publish. there are lot of mistakes in it please
Translation is not perfect
