Messengers who arrange meetings
Sivada, Saumya-darsana, Suprasada, Sada-santa, Santida, Kantida and others are messengers who arrange meetings[1]. They are very skillful in cleverly arranging meetings, and because they are Sri Lalita-devi’s life and soul, they are counted as particularly trustworthy members in the family of Sri Madhava.
When Radharani is in the state of kalahantarita[2], the messengers arranging meetings approach Krishna following the indication of Lalita.
They intelligently and diligently accomplish their responsibilities as messengers. They make Krishna happy by their pleasing advice and thus arrange the youthful Divine Couple’s meeting – the fulfillment of their own desire.
Krishna rewards them for arranging these beautiful meetings, and they also become worthy recipients of Vrindavanesvari’s[3] complete mercy.
Of the aforementioned messengers, Sivada was born in the Raghu dynasty and Saumya-darsana in the Candra dynasty. Suprasada belongs to the Puru dynasty and Sada-santa is a daughter of an ascetic. Santida and Kantida are born in brahmana families. By the mercy of Devarishi Sri Narada, they all received residence in Sri Vrindavana.
