Cleaning and then decorating!

verse 1.11.13 (Supriya Mji):
* This verse talks of how Dvaraka city was decorated.
* Krishna is giving an opportunity for His devotees to see Him.
* No one can see Krishna without having a relationship with Him. For that, we need to establish a relationship with one who has seen the absolute truth - Spiritual master or senior acharyas.
* If Krishna is coming to our heart, then we need to decorate our heart. Its imp to have a thorough cleansing has to be done. CM has said this in the first verse of siksastakam.
* And for maha cleaning for the heart, the Lord has given us this Mahamantra.
* This dirt is there in the heart, it has to be cleaned. It should be a priority. But if not, and another shows it, then only anger and frustration arises.
* Krishna will give an opportunity, if we want to do it for Him. And it will be a joyfull thing.
* Once cleaning is done, then decoration starts. That's where the 3rd verse of Mahaprabhu comes - trnad api sunicena. The Lord will decorate the devotee, it is His mercy only.
