Narayana Muni said
I know the glory of Brindavan very well. Also I am aware of the luscious sweetness of devotion. I know to serve Devi Radha. I have the knowledge of Gopi prem too. Reaching this holy Brindavan which is the very manifestation of pious prem. I was doing tarpan not far for the devas or ancestors or rishis. I was doing tarpan to the customs and conventions of my clan, to my family property, to my sense of shame (as a member of the society), to all my kith and kin, to my penance, to all my austere practices, to shraddhas and all other regulations. (Through that tarpan I gave up all these). As soon as I reached Brindavan all of them died. That is why I performed the last rites for them.
