Srimad-Bhagavatam: Canto 10 - Chapter 1 - Verse 2


Sanskrit:

गृहादनपगं वीक्ष्य राजपुत्र्योऽच्युतं स्थितम् ।प्रेष्ठं न्यमंसत स्वं स्वं न तत्तत्त्वविद: स्‍त्रिय: ॥ २ ॥

ITRANS:

gṛhād anapagaṁ vīkṣyarāja-putryo ’cyutaṁ sthitampreṣṭhaṁ nyamaṁsata svaṁ svaṁna tat-tattva-vidaḥ striyaḥ

Translation:

Because each of these princesses saw that Lord Acyuta never left her palace, each thought herself the Lord’s favorite. These women did not understand the full truth about Him.

Purport:

Śrīla Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura notes that Lord Kṛṣṇa would leave the palaces only with the permission of His wives, and thus each one considered herself His favorite.
