śrī-śuka uvāca
evaḿ saurata-saḿlāpair
bhagavān jagad-īśvaraḥ
sva-rato ramayā reme
nara-lokaḿ viḍambayan
sri-sukah uvaca -- Sukadeva Gosvami said; evam -- in this way; saurata -- conjugal; samlapaih -- by conversations; bhagavan -- the Supreme Lord; jagat -- of the universe; isvarah -- the master; sva -- in Himself; ratah -- taking pleasure; ramaya -- with Rama, the goddess of fortune (that is, with Queen Rukmini); reme -- He enjoyed; nara-lokam -- the world of humans; vidambayan -- imitating.
Sukadeva Gosvami said: And so the self-satisfied Supreme Lord of the universe enjoyed with the goddess of fortune, engaging her in lovers' talks and thus imitating the ways of human society.
The word vidambayan means "imitating" and also "ridiculing." The Lord acted like a husband of this world, but His pastimes are transcendental and expose the perverted nature of mundane activities aimed at bodily sense gratification.
