Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 22


Sanskrit:

कालिन्दीति समाख्याता वसामि यमुनाजले ।निर्मिते भवने पित्रा यावदच्युतदर्शनम् ॥ २२ ॥

ITRANS:

kālindīti samākhyātāvasāmi yamunā-jalenirmite bhavane pitrāyāvad acyuta-darśanam

Translation:

I am known as Kālindī, and I live in a mansion my father built for me within the water of the Yamunā. There I will stay until I meet Lord Acyuta.

Purport:

Since Kālindī was a beloved child of the sun-god himself, who would dare disturb her? From this incident we can appreciate the beautiful spiritual processes executed in previous ages by great souls. Unlike the so-called love in worldly “love affairs,” beautiful Kālindī’s love for Lord Kṛṣṇa was pure and perfect. Even though Kālindī was a tender young girl, her determination to marry Kṛṣṇa was so strong that she arranged for her father to build her a house in the Yamunā where she could perform severe austerities until the day her beloved came.
