ÅšrÄ« Uddhava said: Certainly you gopÄ«s are all-successful and are universally worshiped because you have dedicated your minds in this way to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, VÄsudeva.

Purport

Although other devotees have certainly surrendered their minds unto the Lord, the gopīs are unique in the intensity of their love.
