1. Krsna, His flute, & the cowherd boys

    Over and above all, the Lord used to play His celebrated flute. The sound vibrated by His flute would give His friends such transcendental pleasure that they would forget all the talks of brahmananda, which is so much praised by the impersonalists. These cowherd boys were living entities who had accumulated heaps of pious acts and thus were enjoying with the Lord in person and were hearing His transcendental flute.

    From Srila Prabhupada’s purport to SB 3.2.29
