The lakes, rivers and hills of Vá¹›ndÄvana resounded with the sounds of maddened bees and flocks of birds moving about the flowering trees. In the company of the cowherd boys and BalarÄma, Madhupati [ÅšrÄ« Kṛṣṇa] entered that forest, and while herding the cows He began to vibrate His flute.
As suggested by the words cukÅ«ja veṇum, Lord Kṛṣṇa skillfully blended the sound of His flute with the lovely sounds of Vá¹›ndÄvana’s multicolored birds. Thus an irresistible, heavenly vibration was created.
