तच्च श्रीबल्लवीप्राणनाथपादसरोजयोः ।
प्रेमैव तद्व्रजप्रेमसाजातीयं न चेतरत् ॥

tac ca śrī-ballavī-prāṇanātha-pāda-sarojayoḥ |
premaiva tad-vraja-prema-sājātīyaṁ na cetarat ||
(Bṛhad Bhāgavatāmṛta: 2.5.214)

“That [i.e., your sādhana to attain your Iṣṭadeva], moreover, is simply prema for the lotus feet of the beautiful ballavī’s beloved [lit., the Lord of the gopīs’ prāṇas, that is, hearts, or, lives] which resembles the [celebrated] prema for him [found] in Vraja, and is not otherwise.”
