Receeding waves

“The speed of an ocean wave generally decreases as it recedes onto the shore in shallower water due to friction with the seafloor, which causes the wave to slow down, shorten its wavelength, and increase its height. This phenomenon, known as the shoaling effect, is the reason why waves build up and break as they approach land. “

In Srimati Radharani’s case , She in known as Suratarangani,  the great wave , an unstoppable force of love for Krishna,  there  is no stronger force in the spiritual or material realms than that of  Her determination to meet and give all pleasure to Krishna, as She runs through Vrndavana’s forests assisted by her friends,  who can hardly keep up the pace , having heard the flute sound of Kṛṣṇa.

This strong wave breaks the barriers of family traditions, principles of  normally calculated moral discrimination , and any  sobriety one should have, as well as any sense of fear or shyness .

Having met with Krishna,  the return or the receeding wave of  Srimati Radharani back to her Mother in laws house is at a slower pace , having feelings of separation from Krishna and the dread of having again to return to her ” family duties ” causing “shoaling “
