Relationship with Vaisnavas...

Verse 1.15.2-4 (Kavitha Mataji):

* Arjuna is friendship relationship with Krishna, devotee in sakhya rasa. Their friendship is eternal.
* It is so much close that Arjuna is used to seeing Krishna as a friend, that he does not like to see the Universal form of Krishna, which Krishna showed to him in the battlefield of Kurukshetra.
* He was not only a well-wisher of Arjuna but actually a benefactor, and to make it still more perfect the Lord tied him into a family relationship by arranging Subhadra's marriage with him. And above all, the Lord agreed to become a chariot driver of Arjuna in order to protect His friend from warfare risks,
and the Lord became actually happy when He established the Pandavas to rule over the world.
* Actually, we also have such relationship with Krishna, but we have forgotten that relationship.
* Develop good relationships with Vaisnavas, if we want to develop good relationships with Krishna.
