It was Gokulashtami. Kanchi MahaSwamigal had gone to the backyard for His morning duties at 4am. His Kainkaryam Sri Srikantan told me, "Mami, I will open the door secretly for you. You should put the necessary kolams and Kutty Krishna's
feet on the floor as quickly as possibly and run from here, Ok?"
I said Ok.
He said, "If you want, I will close the backyard door. Let me know the moment you are finished with the kolams and then I will open it again for Him". He was talking like as if the Sarveshwaran will not
know about our plans! I put the kolams, the Kutty Krishna's feet came out so beautifully that day. I drew the Feet from the backyard door right up to the room where He does the poojas and also near the kitchen. And then quickly I came out, afraid that Srikantan might admonish me

तो राधेच्या आयुष्यात होता आणि अर्जुनाच्या ही.

प्रेम त्याने राधेवर ही केले आणि अर्जुना वरही केले.

राधा आपली नव्हती आणि होणार ही नाही याची पूर्ण जाणीव त्याला होती आणि युद्धात अर्जुन जिंकूनही आपला काहीही फायदा होणार नाही ही पण जाणीव त्याला होती

पण

हे असूनही त्याने ही दोन्ही 👇🏻
नाती अतिशय समरस होवून निभावली!

एकदा गोकुळ सोडल्यावर परत तो कधीच राधेच्या आयुष्यात आला नाही

आणि

राज्य अभिषेक झाल्यावर अर्जुनाच्या आयुष्यात ही तो परत कधीच आला नाही.

अत्यंत उत्कटपणे नाती निभावून ही त्या नात्यातून तो अलगदपणे बाजूला झाला.

परत कधीच परतून न येण्यासाठी !! 👇🏻
त्याची त्याला कधी खंत वाटली नाही ना कधी खेद झाला.

राधे बरोबर प्रेमाचे हळूवार नाते त्याने जपले यात त्याला लोक अपवाद आला तरीही त्याचे बासरीचे सुर कधी बहरले नाहीत असे कधीच झाले नाही.

ज्या उत्कटतेने त्याने राधे साठी बासरी वाजवली आणि तिला प्रेमाचा हळूवार अनुभव दिला तसाच अर्जुना 👇🏻

Shri Krishna – The Complete Man : The 16 Kalas

"Agnirjyotirah Shukla Shanmasa Uttarayanam
Tatra Prayata Gachhanti Brahm Brahmavido Janaah"

Shri Krishna says, the yogis who leave the body in six months of Uttarayan, Agni, Jyoti, Day, Shukla Paksha, means men and yogis in whom
the self-knowledge becomes the light, they become fiery like daylight, luminous like moonlight of full moon, ultimate luminous of six months of Uttarayan due to the knowledge. That is, those who become enlightened. Self-knowledge means knowing oneself or recognising oneself
apart from the mortal body.

Shri Krishna is the only Complete Man adorned with 16 Kalas.
Let’s discuss what these Kalas are.

Every human has these five basic Kalas.
1. Annamayaa
2. Pranamayaa
3. Manomayaa
4. Vigyanamayaa
5. Anandmayaa

Kati gatitha mekhala kachitha manikantikaa

#KrishnaJanmashtami wishes to all
The toddler Krishna seems resplendent with the waist girdle studded with jewels and bells. The baby is not walking straight but is taking curvy steps that seem like a graceful dance.

I meditate upon that Gopala, who is served by my Manas and whose Feet I always contemplate upon
In this description of Bala Krishna by Annamacharya, Krishna looks very radiant and innocent. Is this His own self-effulgence that shines alone even after all creation ceases, or is this due to the jewel-studded waist girdle that Mother Yashoda lovingly adorned Him with?

#Moon is currently transiting through Kritika Nakshatra where it is in exalted state and therefore happiest at this moment. Today we are celebrating the festival of Shree Krishna Janmashtami, the birthday of wordly manifestation of divine master. Image
On a spiritual realm, today we are celebrating the emergence of ultimate bliss on earth which removes the illusion of Maya around us.

Chanting #Mahamantra i.e. “Hare Rama Hare Krishna” will open the doors for many divine experiences in your life. When Shree Krishna was born
during midnight, all the doors of the jail cast opened and Vasudeva was able to cross the Yamuna river which was in floods. The birth of the supreme lord was marked by many miracles.

No doubt,his physical embodiment in the world has very special purpose. He was born to end

JANMASTHAMI 2020 - Smarth & Vaishnav

Generally, many of us might be confused due to 2-day celebration of Shree Krishna Janmashtami. This confusion arouses due to 2 different schools of faith known as #Smartha and #Vaishnava. The first Janmashtami date is for Smartha Image

sampradaya and other is for #Vaishnav sampradaya.

The smartha sampradayat is a liberal or nonsectarian tradition or denomination of the Vedic #Hindu religion, which accepts all the major Hindu deities as forms of the one Brahman. Howerver, Vaishnavism revere Vishnu or

Since it is #KrishnaJanmashtami season, a short thread on some of my favourite Krishna temples. From Kerala since I am here now. 😊

This one at Kalady, the birth place of Adi Shankara. 😊🙏

सुपिन्छ गुच्छ मस्तकम् , सुनाद वेणु हस्तकम् ,
अनङ्ग रङ्ग सागरम्, नमामि कृष्ण नागरम् ॥ Image
सान्द्रानन्दावबोधात्मकमनुपमितं कालदेशावधिभ्यां
निर्मुक्तं नित्यमुक्तं निगमशतसहस्रेण निर्भास्यमानम् ।
अस्पष्टं दृष्टमात्रे पुनरुरुपुरुषार्थात्मकं ब्रह्म तत्वं
तत्तावद्भाति साक्षाद् गुरुपवनपुरे हन्त भाग्यं जनानाम् ॥

Next is lord Guruvayurappa in Kerala. 😍

Blessed to be here.🙏 Image
From there to the little Navaneetha Krishna temple in Thanjavur. It is beside the Bangaru Kamakshi temple.

Saint Tyagaraja composed 'Navaneeta Chora Devaki Vasudeva Nandana' at this temple. 😍 🙏 Image
