(Excerpt from the Dig-darśinī-ṭīkā)
“Even in this world, it is well-known that beauty is attained by those who foster a particular rasa [i.e., only when one has a particular affinity for a certain object does one find that object beautiful, and thus when one has special affinity for Kṛṣṇa, who is understood to be the cause, source, and substance of all things, one finds all things beautiful by virtue of their being seen as aspects of Kṛṣṇa].”
