185. Go Loka is for exceptional devotees fixated to one form of God


यथारूपगवां लोके तैजसे तदतिशयगोपिकानां योगरूढाभ्यां कृष्णः।१८५।
yathārūpagavāṁ loke taijase tadatiśayagopikānāṁ yogarūḍhābhyāṁ kṛṣṇaḥ|185|

The devotees who are fascinated to the specific forms of the parts of the contemporary human form, reach the same form in the energetic body in Go Loka as in the case of the Gopikas. The word Krishna is taken in Yoga as well as in Yoga Rudha.

Explanation:

The Go Loka is above Brahma Loka. The intensive worship of the contemporary Human Incarnation fascinated towards its specific form goes to Go Loka. Go Loka means the assembly of parts of the human body of contemporary Human Incarnation without any change. After getting the energetic body, such a soul desires the same specific form in the energetic body also. For example, the Gopikas were very much attracted to the specific form of Krishna and they desired the same specific form in the energetic body also in the upper world. Hence, the Gopikas observe the energetic form of Krishna in Go Loka. If the devotee is not fascinated to the specific form of the contemporary Human Incarnation, the devotee can go to Brahma Loka to accept any energetic form of God. Any devotee fascinated to the specific form of the contemporary Human Incarnation will reach the same form in an energetic body in Go Loka. Hence, Go Loka is a special world meant for intensive worship of contemporary Human Incarnation. The deity of that Go Loka is Krishna, meaning intensively attractive human form of any contemporary Human Incarnation. Gopikas see the deity as the specific Krishna of dvapara age, where as other devotees see the same deity as their contemporary Human Incarnation by which they were intensively attracted. Hence, the word Krishna here means not only a specific human form of dvapara age but also any specific human form of God in this world. The word Krishna by root meaning (Yoga) refers to any attractive contemporary human form of God. At the same time this word also stands for the specific human form of God of dvapara age by way of fixation of word in an item (Yoga Rudha).
