चमत्कारचन्द्रिका

रचयिता: विश्वनाथ चक्रवर्ती

"The Moonlight of Wonder" — a short poem by Viśvanātha Cakravartī in four "diversions" (kutūhala), written at Rādhā-kuṇḍa. Each is a comic story of how Kṛṣṇa slips by a trick into Rādhā's presence at Yāvaṭa, in the house of her mother-in-law Jaṭilā and her husband Abhimanyu: He hides in a jewel box, disguises Himself, pretends — and Rādhā's friends help Him and laugh at the deceived. Behind the merry plot is a love that neither strict in-laws nor Rādhā's own pride can stop.
