'''“The object of love is Kṛṣṇa, and the container of that love is the devotee of Kṛṣṇa."'''

'''[[Vanisource:CC Madhya 23.51|CC Madhya 23.51, Purport]]:''' In the Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu (2.1.14), vibhāva is described as follows:

:tatra jñeyā vibhāvās tu raty-āsvādana-hetavaḥ
:te dvidhālambanā eke tathaivoddīpanāḥ pare

“The cause bringing about the tasting of love for Kṛṣṇa is called vibhāva. Vibhāva is divided into two categories—ālambana (support) and uddīpana (awakening).”

In the Agni Purāṇa it is stated:

:vibhāvyate hi raty-ādir yatra yena vibhāvyate
:vibhāvo nāma sa dvedhālambanoddīpanātmakaḥ

“That which causes love for Kṛṣṇa to appear is called vibhāva. That has two divisions—ālambana (in which love appears) and uddīpana (by which love appears).”

In the Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu (2.1.16), the following is stated about ālambana:

:kṛṣṇaś ca kṛṣṇa-bhaktāś ca budhair ālambanā matāḥ
:raty-āder viṣayatvena tathādhāratayāpi ca

“The object of love is Kṛṣṇa, and the container of that love is the devotee of Kṛṣṇa. Learned scholars call them ālambana—the foundations.” Similarly, uddīpana is described as follows:

:uddīpanās tu te proktā bhāvam uddīpayanti ye
:te tu śrī-kṛṣṇa-candrasya guṇāś ceṣṭāḥ prasādhanam

“Those things which awaken ecstatic love are called uddīpana. Mainly this awakening is made possible by the qualities and activities of Kṛṣṇa, as well as by His mode of decoration and the way His hair is arranged.” (B.r.s. 2.1.301) The Bhakti-rasāmṛta-sindhu (2.1.302) also gives the following further examples of uddīpana:

:smitāṅga-saurabhe vaṁśa-śṛṅga-nūpura-kambavaḥ
:padāṅka-kṣetra-tulasī-bhakta-tad-vāsarādayaḥ

“Kṛṣṇa’s smile, the fragrance of His transcendental body, His flute, bugle, ankle bells and conchshell, the marks on His feet, His place of residence, His favorite plant [tulasī], His devotees, and the observance of fasts and vows connected to His devotion all awaken the symptoms of ecstatic love.”

'''The object of basic ecstatic love is Kṛṣṇa and His devotee. '''

'''The central object of love is Kṛṣṇa. That is Vṛndāvana.'''

'''[[Vanisource:Room Conversation -- June 24, 1976, New Vrindaban|Room Conversation -- June 24, 1976, New Vrindaban]]:'''

Hari-śauri: That used to be a circus trick as well. They used to put their heads in the lion's mouth.

Prabhupāda: Yes.

Dhṛṣṭadyumna: As long as the lion is well fed, you can put your head in his mouth, but if you don't feed him, then it is dangerous.

Prabhupāda: Naturally, if he's animal. They can understand that he's giving you food, he's my friend. The love, friendship, everything is there, even in animals.

Devotee: Except God consciousness.

Prabhupāda: That is possible in human life. But animal also can become God conscious by association.

Kīrtanānanda: Sometimes I've heard you say, Śrīla Prabhupāda, that love only exists between similar categories.

Prabhupāda: Similar categories, the love is very conducive. Otherwise, love is possible with any living entity. The central object of love is Kṛṣṇa. That is Vṛndāvana. The animals love Kṛṣṇa, the human beings love Kṛṣṇa, the trees love Kṛṣṇa, the water love Kṛṣṇa, everyone loves Kṛṣṇa-central point. That is the perfection of love. The Deity is kept in the same house?
