Description

Bhaktivedanta Narayana Gosvami
From the book “Sri Vraja-maṇḍala-parikramā”:
This pastime place lies two miles west of Akṣayavaṭa. The young gopīs had worshipped Kātyāyanī-devī regularly for one month, observing all the vows to attain Śrī Kṛṣṇa as their husband108.
At the end of their vow, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, along with some priya- narma-sakhās stole the gopīs’ clothes and gave them the benediction that their desire would be fulfilled. The temple of Kātyāyanī-devī is situated here on the bank of the Yamunā. The present name of this village is Siyāro.
