Texto

Trivakra's home was opulently appointed with expensive furnishings and replete with sensual accoutrements meant to inspire sexual desire. There were banners, rows of strung pearls, canopies, fine beds and sitting places, and also fragrant incense, oil lamps, flower garlands and aromatic sandalwood paste.

Significado

According to Sridhara Svami, the sensual accoutrements in Trivakra's house included explicit sexual pictures. Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti adds that her paraphernalia included herbal aphrodisiacs. It is not hard to guess Trivakra's intention, yet Lord Krishna went there to save her from material existence.
