Krishna is joyful. I am part and parcel of Krishna; therefore I must be alsojoyful. That is natural. If my father is black, then I am also black. If mymother is black, I am also black. So our father, the supreme father Krishna,is joyful. Don't you see Krishna's attitude? Anywhere you see, Krishna isjoyful. He is not engaged in some industrial work or in some heavy machinemaking. He is simply playing on His flute. You see? And Radharani is there.That is joyful nature.
