summary:
  en: Gītagovinda is a devotional musical poetry by Jayadeva on the divine love between lord Kṛṣṇa and Rādhā (the cow herdess). The poem depicts various themes of love, seperation and reunion. The text is considered to be important for the Vaiṣṇava tradition. It portrays a metaphorical comparison and connection between the romantic love among humans with the love between the Ātman (soul) and Paramātmā (lord) since depending on the tradition Kṛṣṇa is considered to be either an Avatāra (incarnate being) of lord Viṣṇu or the supreme lord himself. The love between Kṛṣṇa and Rādhā is considered symbolic. It's nature is believed to be both human and divine. This Ms. is incomplete as it is ending on the 134th verse. The text is divided into 12 Sargas (cantos). This Ms. is written in 15-20 lines per folio. Title present in colophon (f. 9b). There are double black vertical margins present on each side of the folio.
