About Radha Kunda Tata Kunja Kutir
Turns toward Rādhā-kuṇḍa, the sacred pond in Vrindavana associated with Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, and the small forest dwelling, kuñja-kuṭīr, that represents the innermost aspiration of Gaudiya Vaishnava devotional life — placed near the very end of Saranagati's fifty songs, letting the book's long movement close on this single, intimate image.
