Baelvana
Laksmi-devi could not enter Vrndavana, even though she performed severe austerities in Baelvana. She wanted to cross the River Yamuna and see the rasa-lila, but she could not.
Yogamaya is greater than Laksmi, and she can control everyone. When she saw Laksmi’s austerities, she approached her and said, “You are a chaste lady, a brahmani, married to Narayana. Can you give up your husband and marry somebody else – a gopa?”
Laksmi replied, “I cannot do it. How is it possible?”
Yogamaya said, “Can you make cow dung paddies?”
Laksmi replied, “Oh, I cannot do that. I don’t know how.”
Yogamaya asked, “Can you milk cows?”
Laksmi replied, “I have never done it before.”
Then Yogamaya told her, “You cannot go to Vrndavana, because you are not qualified. First you would have to take birth from a gopi’s womb, associate with the gopis, and try to follow them. You would have to marry a gopa like Durmukha, Durmada, Abhimanyu, or Govardhana Malla. Then, when you have given up that husband, you would be able to go to Krsna and make Him your beloved. This is the only process.”
In one kalpa it was Yogamaya who questioned Laksmi-devi, and in another it was Krsna Himself, but both of them had to tell her the same conclusion: she is unfit for this rasa.

Arjuna Vrindavana Gopis
Arjuna
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/ar
wanted to know the mysteries of Vrindâvana and of the Gopis.
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Know
Krishna said they were unknown to Brahmâ even.
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/AbrahamIbrahimBrahmaSpouses
He then advised Arjuna to worship the goddess Tripura-sundari, as through her favor only he could know all he asked about.
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Tripur
The goddess asked Arjuna to bathe in a tank called Kulakunda.
https://www.google.com/search?q=Kulakunda
She then gave directions which were duly performed by Arjuna. The goddess then took Arjuna to the real, constant Vrindâvana, which is placed over Goloka.
https://harekrishnainfo.blogspot.com/search/label/GolokaVrindavan
With the divine vision, given by the goddess, Arjuna saw the mysteries of Vrindâvana, and became full of devotional love.
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Devotion
He then asked the goddess what to do next. She then asked him to bathe in another tank, and, when Arjuna did so, he became a female. A divine voice said, "Go back to the former tank. Touch its water and you will attain your object. There you will find your companions."
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Divine
The Gopis gathered round Arjuna out of curiosity. One of them Priyamuda asked: —
"Who art thou? How hast thou come here?"
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Invest
Arjuna related his story. To satisfy the curiosity of Arjuna, Priyamuda said: — "We are all the dear companions of Krishna. Here are the girls of Vraja. Those are Srutis and these are Munis. We are Gopa girls. Some appeared here from the body of Krishna. They are constant, keeping constant company with Krishna and moving all over the universe.
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Universe
Of them,
- this is Purna-rasâ,
- this is Râsa Manthara (and so on).
- Then of the Srutis, this is Udgita, this is Sugita (and so on).
- Then of the Munis, this is Ugra-tapas, this is Priyavrata, this is Suvrata (and so on).
https://gopiradhakrishna.blogspot.com/search/label/Sixteen
Arjuna was then made to bathe on the west side of the tank and he then regained his former form.
Kalpa
- Rishi Ugra-tapas meditated on Sri Krishna for one hundred Kalpas. At the end of that period he became a Gopi, named Sunandâ.
- Rishi Satya-tapas meditated on Krishna for ten Kalpas, and he then became a Gopi named Bhadrâ.
- Rishi Hari-dhamâ became a Gopi, named Raktavenî, at the end of three Kalpas.
- Rishi Jâvâli became Chitra-gandhâ after ten Kalpas.
- Suchi-sravas and Suvarna became the daughters of the Gopa Suvira, at the end of one Kalpa.
- Jatila, Janghapûta, Ghritâsin, and Karbu became Gopis after three Kalpas.
- Suka, son of Dirgha-tapas, Vyâsa of the previous Kalpa, became daughter of Upananda.
- One son of Svetaketu became the daughter of Bâlâvani. Chitra-dhvaja, son of Râjârshi Chandraprabha, became Chitrakalâ, daughter of Gopa Viragupta, at the end of one Kalpa.
- Rishi Punya-sravas practised meditation for thirty thousand Kalpas and he was born as the daughter of Nanda's brother, by name Labangâ.
Sixteen
Sixteen Sanskaras Gopis
These are the sixteen principal Prakritis.
Govinda with Râdhâ is seated on the golden throne. Outside the throne, on the seat of Yoga, remain the chief favorites of Krishna, who are parts of Râdhikâ.
- Lalita stands on the west,
- Syâmalâ on the north-west,
- Srimatî on the north,
- Haripriyâ on the north-east,
- Visâkha on the east,
- Saivyâ on the south-east,
- Padmâ on the south, and
- Bhadrâ on the south-west.
- Chitrarekhâ,
- Chandrâ,
- Madana
- Sundari,
- Sri,
- Madhumati,
- Chandra-rekhâ, and
- Haripriyâ. Of this latter group,

Puri
Durvasas first explained that Krishna was the all-pervading Purusha, underlying all. Then further on, there are seven Sâkâmya Puris or places, on the top of Meru, as well as seven nishkâmya Puris.
https://freeglobaluniversity.blogspot.com/search/label/Meru
(The commentator Visvesvara explains "Sâkâmya," as regions where desires fructify. As on the Meru there are seven such Puris, so there are seven Nishkâmya or Moksha-producing Puri's). On the earth, these, are seven Sâkâmya Puris (Ayodhyâ, Mathurâ and others.)
