Shyamasundara, who is extraordinarily beautiful and is expertly attired and ornamented, produces an enchanting sight.

He is an expert connoisseur of the art of amorous love (rasika ramgile), carries Himself with the regal confidence in His unique qualities (guna garvile), and is the charming abode of ultimate beauty.

His yellow silken clothes glisten beautifully on His blue-complexioned body.

His eyes filled with the nectar of divine love, forcibly steals the hearts of the Gopis of Braj.

His bending, swaying gait binds the minds of the Gopis and He calls each one by name on the notes of His flute.

Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj recommends, "Accept such an immortal Beloved, drink the nectar of His divine love and enshrine Him in your heart forever."

All glories to Radha Rani; all glories to Albeli Sarkar.

All glories to the one served by Nandkumar Krishna; all glories to the inifinitely compassionate Radha Rani.

All glories to the extremely innocent and gentle Radha Rani; all glories to the infinitely compassionate Radha Rani.

All glories to the personification of Mahabhav; all glories to the refuge of the souls without refuge.

All glories to the essence of Hladini Shakti; all glories to the personification of beauty and adornment.

All glories to the protector of humble souls; All glories to the Uplifter of sinners.

All glories to the essence of love, beauty and nectar; all glories to the one embellished with sixteen adornments.

All glories to Kripalu's merciful Swamini; all glories to the refuge of the Gopis.

Presented here are the significant highlights of the lecture.

* Smaran, shravan, and kirtan are emphasized as essential practices in bhakti.

* Smaran involves constant remembrance of Radha Krishna, aided by roop dhyan (visualizing their Divine form).

* Shravan (listening to their philosophy and leelas) supports smaran by engaging the mind.

* Kirtan is crucial for deep focus and extended engagement in roop dhyan.

* Milan and Viyog Roop Dhyan are two approaches: Milan visualizes meeting Radha Krishna, while viyog patiently waits for their presence.

* Ananyata emphasizes single-minded devotion:

* Ananya to Guru, Ishta Dev, and the path of bhakti.

* Guru guides with unique perspectives; ananya avoids confusion from multiple sources.

* Ishta Dev focus ensures a potent emotional connection.

* Bhakti path independence—no need to mix with other practices.

* Neutral attitude towards others' paths and gurus—avoid superiority or durbhavana.

* Maharaj Ji’s teachings emphasize humility, confidence, and universal love.

Conclusion: Path of bhakti includes smaran, shravan, kirtan, roop dhyan, and ananyata for spiritual growth and Divine connection.

Memorable quotes from the lecture:

* “In the Gita, Sri Krishna says, we have to do smaran, we have to think of Him all the time."

* "Kirtan is a great aid because it helps us focus much more deeply and for longer periods of time."

* "Whether you're singing the kirtan out loud or you're silently doing jap of Radhey name in your mind, you must do roop dhyan."

* "Just the sounds of the philosophy or leelas going in your ear is not enough."

* "But the smaran is main and should be constant."

* “Maharaj Ji says, Whether you're singing the kirtan out loud or you're silently doing jap of Radhey name in your mind, you must do roop dhyan."

* "Maharaj Ji says, ananyata means being completely single-mindedly devoted to in three areas."

* "Ananyata to the Guru is because any true Guru, although any true Guru can grace you, but your Guru guides you, explains the philosophy to you and invisibly graces you in your heart."

Practical tips from the lecture:

* Choose Your Guru and Stick with Them: Select a Guru whose teachings resonate deeply with you and whose guidance you trust. Once you've made this choice, commit to following their teachings and instructions without wavering. This exclusivity fosters a strong bond of trust and allows for consistent spiritual growth under their guidance.

* Select Your Ishta Dev (Chosen Deity): Identify and connect with a specific form of the Divine that resonates with your heart. This could be Radha Krishna, Ram Sita, Shiv Parvati, or any other form. Dedicate your prayers, meditation, and rituals to this chosen deity, cultivating a deep personal relationship through devotion and love.

* Focus on Bhakti as a Complete Path: Understand that Bhakti is a comprehensive spiritual path in itself. While it can complement other paths like gyan (knowledge), karma (action), and yoga (meditation), it doesn't require supplementation from them. Embrace bhakti as a holistic approach to spiritual growth and liberation.

* Maintain Respectful Equanimity: Adopt an attitude of respect and neutrality towards other spiritual paths and practitioners. Avoid comparisons or criticisms, as they can hinder your own spiritual progress and create discord. Instead, appreciate the diversity in spiritual practices and learn from the experiences of others without losing focus on your chosen path.

* Regular Sadhana (spiritual practice): Establish a consistent routine of spiritual practices such as chanting, prayer, meditation, and reading scriptures. Regularity and sincerity in sadhana deepen your connection with Guru, Ishta Dev, and the Divine principles of bhakti. Set aside dedicated time each day for these practices to cultivate devotion and spiritual discipline.

* Seek Guidance and Community: Surround yourself with like-minded individuals who share your spiritual aspirations. Engage in satsangs (spiritual gatherings), attend discourses by enlightened beings, and participate in devotional activities within your community. This collective support reinforces your commitment to ananyata and provides inspiration on your spiritual journey.

* Cultivate Patience and Surrender: Understand that the path of bhakti unfolds gradually. Be patient with yourself and your progress, knowing that sincere effort and surrender to the Divine grace will bear fruit over time. Trust in the guidance of your Guru and the Divine presence of your chosen deity, surrendering your ego and desires for spiritual advancement.

By incorporating these practical tips into your spiritual practice, you can nurture an exclusive and deep devotion (ananyata) towards Guru, Ishta Dev, and the path of bhakti. Consistency, sincerity, and a humble attitude are key to cultivating a profound spiritual connection and experiencing the transformative power of Divine love.

Please watch the video or read the transcript to fully grasp the essence of the discourse

The Q&A revolves around various aspects of devotion, meditation, and spiritual practice, particularly focusing on the Roop Dhyan of Maharaj Ji, Radharani, and Shri Krishna. Here are the key points discussed:

Interchangeability of Focus: It's perfectly acceptable for the focus during Roop Dhyan to shift between Maharaj Ji, Radharani, and Shri Krishna, as they are all considered one and the same.

Understanding the Divine Forms: The physical representations of Radha Krishna are merely artistic interpretations, and the true essence of their forms transcends material depictions.

Importance of Roop Dhyan: The practice of Roop Dhyan, whether focused on Radharani, Shri Krishna, or Maharaj Ji, serves the same purpose and yields equal benefits.

Significance of Aarti: Aarti is not merely a physical ritual but a deeply spiritual practice meant to evoke heartfelt devotion and visualization of the divine forms.

Hierarchy of Devotion: While Madhurya bhava (the mood of a lover) is appropriate for Shri Krishna, other forms of devotion like Dasya bhava (servant mood) and Sakhya bhava (friendship mood) are more suitable for Radharani.

Practical Tips for Roop Dhyan: Practicing Radhe Naam Jap involves focusing on the breath and mentally chanting "Ra" on inhalation and "Dhe" on exhalation. Consistent practice is key to overcoming distractions and boredom.

Detachment and Charity: The discussion extends to the importance of detachment and the futility of leaving behind material possessions for one's children, emphasizing that everything is ultimately governed by divine will.

Unity in Devotion: Radhe Radhe chanting can encompass devotion to Shri Krishna, Radharani, and Maharaj Ji, as they are regarded as one and the same, allowing for a fluid interchange of focus.

The dialogue underscores the universality of devotion and the practical application of spiritual principles in daily life.

(A devotee says:) O my Kishori Radhey! Please look to me (with Your loving eyes).

Although I undoubtedly believe that, O Kishori Radhey! There is no one (in the world) who truly cares for me, except You.

But I am so mindless that I do not follow the advice of rasik Saints, And, O Kishori Radhey! I still remain the slave of my own desires.

Looking into other devotees' faults and criticizing them, O Kishori Radhey, I am very good in that (and I feel happy in doing so).

In this way I always commit spiritual transgressions. And, O Kishori Radhey, I have thus accumulated a lot of pride in my heart.

Although I proudly talk in the style of rasik Saints (when discussing spiritual matters with others), But, O Kishori Radhey! You know that my heart is the residence of all the material weaknesses like) lust, greed and anger etc.

O Radhey! You know that I have a good name in the society, and You also know what I am from inside. (It means that my good name is a kind of shield to hide the worldliness of my mind.) Still, O my kind-hearted Radhey! You are my only hope. Whatever I am, good or bad, I am just Yours.

A devotee feeling extreme separation from Radha says: O my Radhey, please come to me and after. You come, do not ever go away.

O Radhey, You reside in my heart only. Please come out from there.

O Radhey, just come and show me a glimpse and then You may go back to Braj (Divine Vrindaban).

I am Your innocent baby. Please come and embrace me.

If (for some reason) You cannot come, then please come and tell me that "I cannot come.”

O Radhey, whether you come or not, please ignite the fire of Your separation in my heart.

Please make me such that I keep on crying all the time for Your Divine vision because.

Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj in the words of a devotee says: O Radhey, why have You become so rigid for me? (Please look to me now and come to me.)

Shri Rādhā is a boundless ocean of beauty, divine love and bliss.

The person practicing devotion to Her, very easily obtains the blissful experience of the rāsa, without any obstacle.

Becoming a confidential associate of Kishori Ji, that soul gains entrance into Her eternal pastimes as a participant and is never bereft of this ultimate bliss for a moment, for the rest of eternity (as a devotee of Shri Rādhã never has to experience viraha or separation).

That soul gains the privilege of satisfying Her during the rāsa with song and music performed expertly in various rhythms, keynotes and rāgas.

In the body of a divine Sakhī, that soul gets to dance expertly for the Divine Couple with various gestures expressing a range of loving sentiments while enunciating "dhā-tira-kiṭa-dhā-dhā-dhā” to accompany various dance steps.

"In this way," says Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, “he attains divine fulfilment in its ultimate form, experiencing the bliss of the rāsa of the Divine Couple, without any difficulty by the grace of Shrī Rādha."

Giridhari Krishna always chants the name "Radhey Radhey". Such is my Radhey. Such is my Barsane wari Radhey!

Shree Krishna says, "Ha! Ha!" (while admiring Radha's beauty) and goes “balihar” on Her. Such is my Radhey! Such is my Barsane wari Radhey!

Pyari Radha always chants, " Pyare Pyare" (for beloved Krishna ). Such is my Pyare! Such is my loving Krishna Who playfully performs leelas!

Krishna always chants " Pyari " ( Radha ) and Radha always chants "Pyare" (Krishna). Such are my Pyare Pyari (beloved Krishna and Radha). Shree Kripalu Ji Maharaj says, "Such are my gracious Pyare and Pyari!"

In spiritual life, devotees experience ups and downs due to their evolving spiritual practices, influenced by past impressions (samskaras), associations, and personal effort. Swami Nikhilanand ji encourages maintaining equanimity amid these fluctuations, viewing setbacks as opportunities for growth rather than reasons for despair. He stresses the importance of realistic expectations and gradual progress in spiritual endeavors, supported by faith in divine grace and the path of devotion (bhakti).

“A Gopi is asking her friend about Krishna and says, "Have you lately seen my Beloved somewhere, Who stands in a charming 'S' shape, bending His body from 3 places, neck, waist and ankles?”

“He has big lotus-like eyes and a peacock feather diadem glorifies His head.”

“His eyebrows are sharp, He wears pretty ear-pendants, and also wears a small perfumed mark of musk on His forehead.”

“A saffron silk material cuddles His chest and a multi-colored flower garland (banmal) jubilates His neck.”

“His wrists have jewelled bangles and He wears an ornamented waistband whose tiny bells make a sweet jingling sound.”

“His anklets resound when Her merrily walks, and the charm of His gait defies the elegance of the walk of a sovereign hans.”

“Smiling mildly, and playing a loving note on His flute, He captivates the hearts of all the Gopis.”

“That one is my Beloved and the life of my soul! He is Gopal, the son of Nand Baba. (So, O my dear friend! Tell me if you have recently seen Him somewhere.)”

Pain continuously arises in my heart. Though I have been yearning for Him, His heart shows no mercy. O Sakhi! He had promised to return in two days from Mathura, but years have passed and He has not returned! My eyes prevent my soul from leaving this body, harboring the hope, 'One day my Beloved will come!'' In the words of Shree Kripalu Ji Maharaj, the virahiņi pleads, "Either embrace me or else kill me with Your own hand using Your sudarshan chakra (either way I will attain You),"

With tears in the eyes, a devotee is saying, “O my Kishori Radhey! Please repair my ruined luck!

O my sweet Mother! You are very kind-hearted. It is sung in all the Vedas and the Puranas.

Whom shall I tell the tale of my distress, and who would listen to me except You? You are the only (loving, caring, and compassionate) Mother of this sorrowful child!

O Radhey! You know the condition of my heart very well, that I never stop doing wrong things!

This crafty, cunning and spoiled kid of Yours is tossed here and there in the world!

I have no true qualities of devotion although I call myself a great knower of the path of bhakti.

O Radhika (Radhey)! Looking into Yourself, please accept me now. (It's too long I have been away from You.)

Also please show me Your Manmohan Krishna once! O my Radhey! I prostrate to Your lotus feet. Please fulfill my desire.

(Whatever I am) I am Your child. Now where else could I go (except You, as You are my only refuge)?

I have no true qualities of devotion although I call myself a great knower of the path of bhakti.

O Radhey! Please fulfill my willful request, and come to me, otherwise this child of Yours may disgrace the mother's good name (by his conduct and people may say, "Hey look to this guy who calls himself a devotee of Radha Krishna and he is so worldly." So, O my Radhey! Please, Grace this child of Yours and show Your loving face).”

A devotee, longing for the love of Radha Rani, says, “O my ever-youthful sweet and loving Radhey! O form of intimate Divine Bliss, my Gracious Radhey! Please look at me with a kind glance of your causeless Grace!

O Radhey! I am a helpless, humble and fallen soul, devoid of devotion and dedication, And You are the boundless Ocean of kindness and Divine love.

O Radhey! Where shall I go and to who shall I tell the tale of my distress, and who would look to this humble and devoid soul except You (as You are my only hope and refuge)?

I am such an ungrateful person (who has overlooked all of Your Grace and kindness and) who is still shamelessly committing sins all the time and is wandering in the world trying to fulfill the desires of his physical senses like a pig enjoying the garbage.

So, O Radhey! Looking to Your unconditional kindness, please forcibly make me Your own. (Only You can do this.) Without You, there is no one who could come to rescue me.

Whether I am good or bad, I am Yours, O Radhey! You are the only one who cares for me.

Please look at me with a kind glance of Your causeless Grace. (Although) I have committed endless sins (still I am Yours. Without You, I see no one in the world who could love me).

O Raseshwari Radhey! Please give me the alms of Gopi bhao (so I can be fortunate enough to be in Your service forever). O Radhey! By any means, please make me Your own, so that …

… with tears of love in my eyes and singing and remembering Your loving virtues day and night, I may completely drown myself in Your love.

O Kishori Radhey! Having received Your Divine love with Your Grace, And satiated in Your loving Bliss, I would then be anonymously wandering in the lanes of Braj...”

In the end, the devotee says, “O Beauty of the Divine beauty, my beloved Radhey! When will that day come that while seeing my Swamini, my eyes will be ceaselessly looking to the ever-new and ever-increasing beauty of my ever-loving Radhey like a chakor."

“O my mind, sing the glories of Radha Krishna day and night.

Every moment keep increasing your devotional feelings, and constantly improve your feelings of love for Radha Krishna.

This life without His love is no life, because He is the 'life' of my soul.

And that love is not the true love, if it is not for the happiness of your most beloved Krishna.

Always desire to meet Shyama Shyam (Radha Krishna) with eyes full of tears of love and longing.

O my mind! Sing the virtues of Krishna and fructify the Divine fruit of your life.

Radha is simple and delicate Sukumari,

The daughter of Vrishbhanu and is the soul-beloved of Krishna.

Even the all-virtuous Krishna always serves His soul Radha like the eternal servant.

To experience and taste the nectar of Vrindaban bliss, always sing Radhey name.

O my mind! Always sing 'Radhey', 'Radhey', 'Radhey'.”

(A rasik Saint says: O souls of the world!) Always remember Radha Krishna and always sing the virtues and the leelas of Radha Krishna.

Both, Lal and Lali are the ocean of the sweetness of the Divine beauty and They always play in the beautiful kunj of Vrindaban.

They are so beautiful that the beauty of millions of Rati and Kamdev becomes bashful in their presence. So, O souls of the world, always remember Radhey Govind!

Both are the forms of Divine love and the Soul of all the rasik Saints, and Both look like the Couple of beauty and adornment.

They Both have flooded the Braj with the nectar of Divine love and Their leelas. So, O souls of the world, always remember Radhey Govind!

Sankadik paramhansas could not understand the secrets of brahm Krishn, and the Vedas ended up by saying, 'Neti neti'. They couldn't. describe any further.

But, it is the greatness of Braj ras that the Gopis have made the same brahm Krishna dance according to their own choice. So, O souls of the world, always remember Radhey Govind!

The great yogis meditate upon that brahm in their samadhi, and the gyanis declare it as unperceivable and unattached.

But it is the greatness of Braj ras that the same brahm Krishn has become like the collyrium of the eyes of the Gopis (because, they don't perceive anything else but Krishna, all the time). So, O souls of the world! Always remember Radhey Govind.

Both Radha and Krishna, are like chakor and the moon for each other, and They Both lovingly talk to each other with the movement of Their eyes without saying a word.

Shree Kripalu Mahaprabhu Ji says that the loving couple, Radha Krishna, are so great that there is no word to describe Their glory, graciousness, and kindness. So, O souls of the world, always remember Radhey Govind, Radhey Govind, Radhey Govind!

I will be unable to contain the blissful intoxication I experience when I receive the gentle, Divine touch of Your hands.

I adore and sacrifice my whole being on my loving Radhey. I adore and sacrifice myself on my loving Radhey.

I adore and sacrifice my whole being on Bhanudulari Radhey. I adore and worship my Radhey Who freely distributes Braj ras.

I adore and admire the beauty of my Nathwari Radha Rani. I sacrifice myself on the beauty of Radharani Who wears a besar (nose pearl).

I adore and admire Radha Rani Who looks very innocent. I adore and worship my Radhey Who wears a choonari.

I sacrifice my whole being on my innocent and naive Radhey. I adore and worship my Radhey Who is very sweet, delicate and dainty.

I adore and worship Radhey Who has covered Her face with a veil. A Gopi says, O sakhi! I adore and worship my Gracious Radha.

JKP Radha Madhav Dham podcast is available on various podcast apps.

(This pad is a brief description of the Ras Panchadhyayi of the Bhagwatam.) The intimate Bliss of Radha Krishn, which is unlimited times higher than the Bliss of the Divine yogis, is pouring in Vrindavan.

On the banks of river Yamuna where the grounds are paved with jewels,

And near Vanshivat, in the Sharad Poornima night (of the autumn) when the cool light of the full moon is spraying its charm all over,

In the winsome style of a humble lover,

The enticer of Gopis' hearts, supreme rasik, Krishn, is rejoicing His adored Love, Radha Rani (with a desire to seek Her consent to do maharas as He had promised to the Gopis. Radha Rani looks at Him, lovingly smiles, briefly nods in affirmation, and disappears).

Krishn looked around and found that the flowers of the spring were also blooming in the autumn/fall (which was the indication of the speciality of the occasion and the Grace of Radha Rani). 

His self-complacent mind was encharmed with the surrounding beauty, 

And the desire to do raas appeared in His heart.

In the meantime, Kamdev, the god of love also showed up with his full romantic powers to try the self- complacency of Krishn.

The sages of Dandak forest, Graced by Bhagwan Ram,

The maidens of the hladini power, Janki ji (Sita ji),

And the richas of the Vedas (who had received the Grace of Krishn), all of them, desiring to receive the Bliss of maharas, appeared in Braj. (They were called sadhan siddha Gopis. Apart from them,)

The nitya siddha Gopis of Golok had also appeared in Braj as Gopis (and they were all anxiously waiting for that particular Sharad Poornima night.

(The time had come, so, Krishn called for the Gopis and played a special note on His flute near Vanshivat.) Hearing the heart-enticing sound of the flute of their beloved Krishn, 

All the Gopis of Braj ran to Him, (and formed well organized circles for doing maharas). 

Like the lightning and the cloud, Radha and Krishn glorified the center of the maharas. 

(When all the preliminaries were done, with the help of His amazing power, yogmaya,) Krishn multiplied Himself into uncountable forms and joined all the Gopis individually. (Thus, there was a continuous line of one Gopi and one Krishn in all the circles.)

(Now the maharas started.) The Gopis, and Radha and Krishn started singing soul-exciting songs in the classical style of various rag with heart-catching tan and alaap, 

With the exactings of the seven prime notes, sa-re-ga-ma-pa-ḍha-ni. 

At that time, the youthful goddesses of the celestial abodes also came to watch this happening and they were all sitting in their celestial chariots in the sky. 

The musical instruments that were used in maharas, like the cymbal, drum etc., were all well tuned and synchronized, and were producing a sweet, soft and loving melody.

(Now the Gopis started dancing with elegant movements of all the five parts of their body.) Swaying, rolling, swinging and moving their body and slim waist,

They are twisting, dancing, walking, stepping and coordinating their heels and steps with the sound and the beat of the drum (mridang).

They are lovingly arching their eye- brows and are darting their sidelong glances (to their beloved Krishn).

The lovely movements of the upper part of their body and neck, and the graceful actions of their arms, hands, and fingers appear as the dancing embodiment of love itself. In this way uncountable groups of Gopis are dancing with Krishn in the maharas.

Dancing in the overtaking joy of His intimate love, their tresses, garments and the ornaments,

Have become untidy and are loosely hanging on their body, because all the Gopis are inebriated with the intoxication of the personal love of Krishn.

They are still playing and dancing with Krishn in an exalted state of the Divine and beyond the guiles of maya,

And their jingle-belled anklets and resonant bangles and waistband are producing an exciting melody of combined tinkling sounds.

All-apt in the loving plays, Rasik Shiromani Krishn,

Is doing soul-exciting leelas and raas. 

With His heart-enticing actions and love- inciting words, He is playfully playing

With the Gopis, (who are part of His own personality, in a Divinely expanded mono-dualistic manner), just like a baby child plays with his own image reflected in a large mirror. यथार्भकः स्वप्रतिबिम्बविभ्रमः । भा.).

(The Blissfulness of the Divine leela of maharas is beyond the limits of imagination. Its surprising excellency could be a little understood with the fact that:) Even the birds and the animals of Vrindavan, who happened to glance at the view of maharas, were so enthralled with the lovingness of the scene that they were frozen in excitement, and, like a statue, they kept on looking unblinkingly;

And the static beings, trees and plants etc.

became animated with the Divine animation of the surroundings and felt thrilled (with the liveliness of the maharas that filled the whole of the atmosphere. Their hearts moved, and their subtle senses became alive. Overjoyed with the enchantment of the raas Bliss, that permeated the entire Vrindavan, they began to drip tears of love in the form of sap from their twigs and branches). 

In this way, all the beings of Vrindavan were merrily swinging on the wave of the ocean of Divine love.

Seeing the incredible charm of maharas from the sky, god moon, drowned in the spell of love, lost his track, and the vanity of Kamdev to try his powers on Krishn was blown away (at the very first glimpse of maharas, and he fainted with the excessive joy of watching the blissful appearances of the Gopis).

(Such was the charming effect of the maharas.) The Seva Kunj, where Radha Krishn danced, is great; Vrindavan dham, where maharas happened is great;

The Gopis, who are like the crown jewel among all the rasik Saints, are great;

And the greatest of them is Swamini Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani Who revealed this supreme Bliss along with Krishn.

And those Saints are also great who, with the Grace of the Gopis and Radha Krishn, watch this leela of maharas. (So, Glory to Seva Kunj, Glory to Vrindavan, Glory to the Gopis of Braj, Glory to Raseshwari Radha Rani and Krishn, and glory to those Saints who follow Them.)

You have showered so much kindness on me, but still I am unable to realize the importance of it; nor can I ever repay You.

I have come to Your door even though I know I am not worthy of Your Grace.

I lost myself in worldly desires to the point that I never took Your name (or remembered You) even once.

I am so guilty and sinful that I am not even worthy of showing You my face.

Even though You have Graced me with this human birth, I have still not realized Your greatness.

I am so indebted to Your Grace that I can never repay You.

Although I know that You are the Divine benefactor of the entire creation, how can I ask You for more.......

...when I have not availed myself of what You have already given me.

All I desire is to become surrendered to You and to have just one glimpse of You in my heart.

O my Lord! I have nothing else to offer You other than my heart.

Maharas leela is an extensive leela of Radha Krishn and the Gopis that revealed all the aspects of Divine love during Their singing, dancing and playing near Kalindi in Vrindaban. About 5,000 years ago this leela had happened on this earth planet when, on a particular Sharad Poornima night, Shree Krishn Divinely extended the length of that night to about 180 times, and, all the time, uncountable milions of Gopis ceaselessly danced and played with Him. They were so engrossed in that Bliss that that length of time felt very little to them.

Radha and Krishn were in the center of the field of maharas and Lalita etc. Gopis were around Them. This pad is the description of a small section of the first part of the maharas leela when Radha Rani revealed the Bliss of the maan and pranaya state of Divine love.)

Radha Krishn are outpouring the supreme Bliss of raas in Vrindaban.

With uncountable Gopis of Braj, on the Sharad Poornima night, Shree Krishn is playing soul-catching notes on His flute.

Hearing that, gyani Saints abandoned their relishment of the Divine sound, anahad nad, and relinquished their samadhi state, considering them to be an obstacle in the enjoyment of the sound of Krishn's flute.

Radha and Krishn are Both singing and dancing, and, at the same time, They are also doing the Divine leelas of intimate nature.

(Suddenly, during the movement of the dance as They come close together, Their adornments entangled and They came to a standstill). That side, Krishn's ear ornament got entangled with the tresses of Radha Rani, and on this side, Radha's besar with Krishn's got entangled with Krishn's vanmala.

This rejoiced halt thrilled Their hearts, and Both, Lal and Lali, (standing very close,) are unentangling each other's ornament with Their hands.

(Krishn's peetambar had slipped down from His chest during this period and so, the natural shiny glow of Krishn's body showed the reflection of Radha's face on it as Her face was quite close to His chest.) When Radha noticed the female figure on Krishn's body (out of Her extreme innocent lovingness) She considered it to be some other woman, and then She did maan.

Lali Radha became irritated. She moved away and sat at another place, holding Her chin on Her palm and arching Her eyebrows in anger.

"(Krishn had no clue of this sudden happening. He thought probably some of His actions might have annoyed Her.) So, taking Lalita with Him, Krishn comes to Radha and, with folded hands and tears in His eyes and with a trembling heart, He propitiates Her to be appeased."

Radha moved Her body, and turning Her face to the other side, She angrily says, "Holding some other woman in Your heart You are again coming to me."

Perplexed, Giridhar Krishn is in a fix. He doesn't know what to do now. With trickling tears, He is simply standing. (Lalita had to think fast. She discovered that shiny glow of Krishn's bodv holds the reflection of the person standing close by. She thought that Radha would have seen the faint outline of Her own face on Krishn's chest and would have thought that Krishn was dancing with Her and remembering some other woman in His heart, and that could be the reason of Her maan.)

(Knowing this, she quickly took off her choonari.) With the help of Lalita, Krishn used her pink choonari to hide the glow of His body.

Radha, looking sidelong to Krishn (and not seeing that image again), felt happy. She smiled, got up, and lovingly hugged Her beloved Krishn.

Kishori Ji is scolding Shyāmasundara, who is attempting to braid and decorate Her hair... "Śhyāma! You give the Rasikas a bad name.

You roam around with illiterate cowherd boys all day in the forests grazing cattle, then how can You possibly learn the skills necessary to serve someone you love?

You are just entangling My hair in the name of braiding. Which guru has taught You this unique method of braiding hair?

Stop it right now, or my Sakhīs will laugh at Me when they see Your marvelous work.

I prefer to wear My hair open, to this. When You decorate My hair with flowers it looks like someone has dropped flowers on the idol of Shiva as an offering!

When You fan Me, You start a windstorm which blows all those flowers off My head!"

Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj says, “All glories to the Crest Jewel of Rasikas such as Yourself and blessed is Kishorī Jī, who has to put up with a Lover like You."

O my beloved! Please glance at me with Your Gracious eyes. You are the only refuge and You are the only desire of my heart.

O my beloved! You are the stealer of the heart of a dedicated devotee. Please now think of me, and Grace me.

O my beloved! Your maya is very powerful (please save me from it). I have no other desire, except that -

O my beloved! I only desire for Your personal service. Please drown me in the Bliss of Your Braj leelas.

O my beloved! Nothing would be reduced from the ocean of Your Grace (just give me a drop of it). O my beloved! Please look to me, (and come to me).

Dear souls, do devotion, do devotion and do devotion.

Only by doing proper devotion you will attain your beloved Krishn's Divine love.

The first step of devotion is to have full faith in the true Spiritual Master (the Divine Guru ) and surrender to his lotus feet.

True surrender is to join your mind with the Divine Guru (obey his instructions without any questions or hesitation).

Serve the Guru with your body, mind and worldly possessions.

Obtain the true knowledge of soul, maya and God from the Guru.

Understand from the Guru, your true relationship with your beloved God.

Do not think that there is even the slightest difference between God and Guru.

The most important thing in devotion is that devotion should be done by the mind, and not only by physical senses.

Mind alone is the cause of both, liberation and bondage.

First meditate upon the form of Krishn according to your liking. Meditation means lovingly remembering Krishn (Radha Krishn) while trying to imagine that He is present near you in His Divine form.

Along with the meditation, sing the name, virtues and the leelas of Radha Krishn

Loving meditation is the life of devotion

Without true meditation devotion is like a body without life.

Whatever form of Krishn you like, imagine that form in your mind.

Have Krishn (in your desired form) seated in front of you and then do the devotion.

Increase the feeling of longing for the Divine vision of Krishn.

Shedding the tears of love (in His separation) ask Krishn for His Divine love and Divine vision.

Even by mistake, do not ask for worldly happiness or any kind of liberation (from Krishn).

Do not have ill feelings for anyone, even in dream or even by mistake.

Always look towards your own faults. Never look for others' faults.

Detach your mind from the world and attach it to Krishn.

Practice this again and again, all the time.

Always desire for Krishn's happiness. Do not desire for your own happiness.

Whatever is His wish, it should be your wish.

Desire only for Krishn's Divine service, twenty-four hours a day.

(Increase the longing for Krishn's vision to such an extent that) without His vision a moment should be felt like an eon.

Recognize the presence of your Divine Beloved Krishn in every living and static being all the time.

Feel that Krishn is with you everywhere and all the time.

Never feel that you are alone (Krishn is not with you).

Always think in your mind that Krishn and your Spiritual Master are watching all of your actions.

Wherever your mind goes imagine that Krishn is standing over there.

In your mind decorate Krishn according to your taste.

Always keep the feeling of humbleness like a blade of grass in your heart (grass is tread upon by everyone but it never grumbles).

Become tolerant even greater than a tree (a tree bears all kinds of harsh weather and behavior from people without any grudge and bears fruit for everyone).

Give respect to everyone. Do not desire for your own self respect.

When you inhale say 'Ra' in your mind.

When you exhale say 'dhey' in your mind and remember Radha.

Do not have attachment or animosity for anyone in the world.

Always keep your mind absorbed in Radha Krishn and your beloved Guru.

Always remember that this body may be taken away from you any moment (you may die any moment).

Understand the fact that your desirous mind is your enemy and do not listen to it.

Whether Krishn gives you His Divine vision or not you must keep on shedding the tears of love and longing continuously.

Keep this faith in your mind that one day Radha Krishn will surely come to you (in Their Divine form).

(You must know that) as much as you love Them, They love you more than that.

Krishn loves the loving heart. He submits Himself to His selfless lover.

Do not study many scriptures or listen to the preachings of various spiritual teachers (as it may confuse your mind).

Drink the nectar of Divine love of Both, Radha and Krishn, as They…

…Fill up the pot of your heart with the nectar of Divine love of Radha Krishn and drink it all the time.

The Divine nectar of Radha Krishn love is such that (once the pot is filled) it always remains full.

Keep on waiting for His Grace, and you will surely receive it.

Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj says that one day Radha Krishan will definitely Grace you and will come to you.

My Swamini Radhey! This maya is stubborn and powerful. It makes me drift and dance from here to there in numerous ways (with a new illusion and a new hope which is never fulfilled)

Anger, desire (of lust), vanity, greed, and deep worldy attachments are the strong enemies which surround me alI the time.

O Radhey! I understand all this, still my silly mind does not comprehend the truth and stubbornly goes back into the world again and again.

Although I call myself Yours, still I love my son, property, and spouse etc., and hold them deep in my heart,

So, O my Radhey! Look to me and give me Your love (so that I could leave their attachments and become Yours forever)

His beautiful complexion is like the bluish-gray young rain-laden cloud and He is the crown jewel of all the rasik Saints.

His love-instigated droopy dallied eyes are chakor for the moon-like face of Radha.

His fascinating look is so amazing that it steals the static heart of the paramhansas (and inspires it with His ever-increasing love).

He keeps on showering the Bliss of Divine love in the Nikunj of Braj from evening till morning,

And we Gopis keep on drinking the nectar of Radha Krishn love day and night, all the time.

Śharat Poorņimā has come once again.

The rainy season is also over. What mode of love of our Beloved is this?

He has neither returned, nor has He summoned us to join Him. Has Kubjā become so dear to Him?

O Beloved! We are now reaping the consequences of insulting You constantly.

Please forgive us now. What has happened, to Your nature of forgiveness?

Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj says, "The memory of those sweet nights of Śharat Poornimā spent with You in the mahārāsa, is just adding fuel to the fire of separation."

All glories to Lord Ram

All glories to the divine couple, Shri Sita Ram.

O Lord Ram! You are causelessly merciful.

May the divine couple Shri Sita Ram live eternally.

All glories to Sita Ram who are complete in themselves, and who are the abode of absolute divine happiness.

Says Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, "O mind, always chant the divine names of Sita Ram".

Live recorded kirtan on the occasion of Sharad Poornima 2024 from Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani Temple of JKP Radha Madhav Dham, Austin, TX.

Krishn is seeing Shree Radha for the first time. Enticed by Her beauty. He is asking: O beautiful girl of Braj who are You?

Your beauty is so amazing that even the beauty of Rati (wife of Kamdeo) is nothing in front of You.

You are so beautiful that Your beauty can only be compared with You alone.

O my supreme enchanter! You have stolen my heart. with just one glance.

Krishn again asks curiously: O sweet maiden! Where do You live and who are Your parents?

Shree Radhikaji replies: I am the daughter of King Vrishabhanu

Krishn asks again: Please look towards me and tell me Your name. Radhikaji replies, "My name is Radha."

Krishn then says: If You agree, I want to marry You. You and I will make a superb pair.

Radhikaji, enticed by the charm of Krishn, says : O My Beloved, I also want to be Yours forever.

Radhikaji says: You have stolen my heart. I am drowned in Your love and losing my consciousness.

Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj says: May my beloveds, Krishn and Radha Rani remain on this earth planet for uncountable years
