Significado

The musicians in the upper planetary systems are called Gandharvas, and the dancing girls are called Apsarās. After being attacked by the demons and evolving a form of a beautiful woman in the twilight, Brahmā next created Gandharvas and Apsarās. Music and dancing employed in sense gratification are to be accepted as demoniac, but the same music and dancing, when employed in glorifying the Supreme Lord as kīrtana, are transcendental, and they bring about a life completely fit for spiritual enjoyment.

Los músicos de los sistemas planetarios superiores se llaman gandharvas, y las bailarinas se llaman apsarās. Después de ser atacado por los demonios y producir la forma de una hermosa mujer en el crepúsculo, Brahmā, a continuación, creó a los gandharvas y a las apsarās. La música y la danza, empleadas para complacer los sentidos, deben considerarse demoníacas, pero si se emplean como kīrtana para glorificar al Señor Supremo, son trascendentales y la causa de una vida completamente apta para el disfrute espiritual.
