6. Description Abstract The last chapter of the first section investigates the wondrous
and sensuous beauty of plants, trees, fruits and flowers in the Rāsa
Līlā as described in the Bhāgavata Purāṇa. Graham Schweig explores the
role of flora within the experience of devotion (bhakti) as expressed in the
Vaiṣṇava narrative celebrating Kr̥ṣṇa, and the interdependent dialectical
relationship between natural phenomena and the movements of the bhakta’s
or devotee’s heart.
