PURPORT
As mentioned above, the gopis are the predominated lovers, and Sri Krsna is the predominator, the beloved.
The love of the predominated nourishes the love of the predominator.
The gopis had no desire for selfish enjoyment.
Their feeling of happiness was indirect, for it was dependent on the pleasure of Krsna.
Causeless love of Godhead is always so.
Such pure love is possible only when the predominated is made happy by the happiness of the predominator.
Such unadulterated love is exemplified when the lover deprecates her happiness in service that hinders her from discharging it.
