ÅšrÄ«la ViÅ›vanÄtha CakravartÄ« comments as follows on this verse: “It is stated here that CitralekhÄ resorted to mystic power (yogam ÄsthitÄ). As explained in the Hari-vaá¹Å›a and other literatures, she needed to employ her powers because when she arrived at DvÄrakÄ she found herself unable to enter Lord Kṛṣṇa’s city. At that time ÅšrÄ« NÄrada Muni instructed her in the mystic art of entering. Some authorities also say that CitralekhÄ is herself an expansion of Yoga-mÄyÄ.â€
