गोपीनां महिमा कश्चित्तासाम् एकोऽपि शक्यते ।
न मया स्वमुखे कर्तुं मेरुर्मक्षिकया यथा ॥
gopīnāṁ mahimā kaścit tāsām eko‘pi śakyate |
na mayā svamukhe kartuṁ merur makṣikayā yathā ||
(Bṛhad Bhāgavatāmṛta: 1.7.156)
[Parīkṣit Mahārāja to Mother Uttarā:] “I cannot describe with my own mouth even one of those [aforementioned] greatnesses of the gopīs, just as a fly cannot [with its own mouth] swallow [Mount] Meru.”
