Vraj Mandal Jhanki-Fulfil longing For Drishy of Divine Bhumi-3

Vraj Mandal Jhanki-Fulfil longing For Drishy of Divine Bhumi-3

(A part of 21 post series)

Entry to Divine Vraj Bhumi is prohibited due to Covid-19 pandemic.

I long to be there!

And I realise that similarly there must be 1000’s of bhakts who long to place foot in Vraj.

Divine Vraj Mandal is sakshat Golok 🙏

Just so all can have darshans of the Bhumi, I’ll try and post few from my collection of several yatras over the years. A kripa from the divine shaktis of Vraj bhumi🙏

Hope all bhakts enjoy them; a kripa from Shree Radha Herself, who is the original Divine Shakti 🙏

वह भव्य, दिव्य व्रज भूमि, जो साक्षात गोलोक है,

जब नेत्र और आत्म में शुद्धता होने से आलोकिकता महसूस होने लगे,

तो समझिए श्रीनाथजी, श्री राधा कृष्ण की कृपा बरस रही है 🙏

Jai Shree RadheKrishn 🙏

Jai ShreeNathji Prabhu 🙏

Jai Vraj Bhumi

जहाँ श्री राधा कृष्ण लीला में डूब जाने को मन, शरीर, आत्मा और दिल करे, वो व्रज धाम, श्रीनाथजी ठाकुरजी की प्रिय लीला भूमि;

The photo says it all! The divine land yatra is never complete without at least one photo with beloved gaumata — at Mahalakshmi Mandir, Belvan, Vrindavan.

A peacock witnessing five Neel Gai running through Govardhan — at Goverdhan Giriraji Tehaleti Jatipura Prikrama.

Ter Kadamb is located just 1.5 km from Nandgaon and is quite secluded. So that retains the traditional vibe of Vraj Bhumi. It is the place where Shree Krishn plays bansuri to call His 900000 cows

जहाँ श्री राधा कृष्ण लीला में डूब जाने को मन, शरीर, आत्मा और दिल करे, वो व्रज धाम, श्रीनाथजी ठाकुरजी की प्रिय लीला भूमि

Gwal Pokhar or Gopal Kund, about 500 metres on the right side of Govardhan parikrama. It is a small Kund located near Shyam Kuti, Govardhan.Shree Krishn, during His Gocharan time would rest here in the afternoon.

A ‘selfie’ with Giriraj Govardhan

There is no other as ALIVE SPOT in Vraj Mandal as the divy 21 kms of Giriraj Govardhan parikrama marg; in our times.

It is a sthal of several sakshatkar and Shree Thakurjee anubhuti.

At any point on this parikrama marg, there are many Shilas (Girirajji stones are called Shila as they are divine) which have a divine feel about them. Shilas can appear and disappear as they are alive with the divine powers.

When there is the pavitrata and samarpan one can ‘feel’ the divine presence at several spots around this Divine Parvat, which has been the leela sthali for several Shree RadheKrishn and ShreeNathji divine leelas.

Jai ShreeNathji Prabhu 🙏

Jai Shree RadheKrishn 🙏

एक selfie गिरिराज जी की दिव्य शिला के संग

इस आलोकित क्षण में हम क्या पा जाते हैं, वही समझ सकता है जो पूर्ण समर्पण में है।

गिरिराज जी के परिक्रमा मार्ग में, जहाँ से हटने को मन नहीं करे, समझ लो कुछ तो दिव्य दर्शन की अनुभूति हो रही है

Where has My Mumbai disappeared

In this concrete jungle I search for my Mumbai

In this concrete jungle I search for that rainbow which was my Mumbai ;

Every time I am sad and depressed about the downfall of my city I make a plan on moving out; But how do I do this; I am Mumbai and Mumbai is me..

Where else will I feel at home?

Though my city has become a hole I continue to live here as leaving this home would mean leaving my entire life and memories behind .. I am addicted

In this concrete jungle I search for my Mumbai

.

.

MUMBAI .. the city that once was the pride of our nation is now just a shadow which waits for death as the darkness engulfs .. what have we done to the once beautiful and green city. It took just 25/30 years to destroy that which was looked upon as a dream city

.

.

Mumbai has become a nightmare. Having spent 54 out of my 62 years in this city I see and watch with despair the deterioration in every aspect of living..

too many people jammed in the kilometre.

Quality of air, water, food is at an ultimate low

Roads are a nightmare .. again too many cars.. too many two wheelers .. too many people jay walking

Footpaths taken over by the hawkers..roads encroached with parking cars or buses or tempos

Construction material lying around after completion of a job

No one, absolutely no one to safe guard the citizens rights; they who pay all taxes on time, and maintain every aspect of civic sense

The elected government just does not care.. the #BMC has been super negligent in their jobs

#shivsena who make several promises overlook and forget once elected in power

No parks left to have a quiet walk .. what happened?

My childhood was spent literally walking to school through green fields .. Drinking water directly from the municipal taps at school and in gardens was the done thing

TOO MUCH ILLEGAL CONSTRUCTION.. too much migration of people looking for livelihoods.. development of illegal slums .. the list of destructions is endless 😠

Mumbai is the planets second most densely populated city with 31,700 people per square kilometre, as per UN habitat data

Sunrise on Giriraj Parvat

Shri Giriraj Govardhan Parvat-Vraj Mandal Jai ShreeNathji-Jai Shree RadhaKrishn

१५-०१-२०१९ का ये छोटा सा विडीओ आप के लिए 🙏

यूँ लगता है सूर्य देव बादल के माध्यम से गिरिराज जी को नमन कर रहे हैं

सुबह का यह दृश्य आलोकिक है, कुछ पल के लिए गिरिराज जी सूर्य की इस अद्भुत लालिमा में डूब जाते हैं।

चाहती तो हूँ की समय यहीं पर कुछ समय रूक जाए और यह दिव्य नज़ारा हम निहारते रहें।

किंतु प्रकृति तो किसी के लिए इंतज़ार नहीं करती, और देखते ही देखते २-५ मिनट में यह लालिमा पूर्ण हो जाती है।

Giriraj Govardhan at Vraj Mandal:

Importance of Chaturmaas:(Four Monsoon months)

Giriraj Govardhan at Vraj Mandal:
बारिश का मौसम गिरिराज जी को मन मोहक बना देता है।

Importance of Chaturmaas, in ShreeNathji Yatra from Shri Govardhan to Shri Nathdwara in 1672 AD

..The journey to Mewar, as desired by Thakurjee, began in 1669 AD, on Asadh Sud Punam on Friday, during the last 3 hours of the night. ShreeNathji with all His sevaks arrived in Sinhad (Nathdwara) in 1672 AD, on Falgun Vad Satam on Saturday.

Since He began travel from Giriraj to Nathdwara, ShreeNathji spent three Chaturmaas on the way.

The first Chaturmaas was spent at Krishnpur in Dandoti Ghat, near the Chambal river.

The second Chaturmaas was in Krishnbilaas at Kota. (He halted here for four months).

The third Chaturmaas was spent in Chapaseni at Jodhpur. He also celebrated an Annakut here. Halt here was roughly for five months.

The fourth Chaturmaas ShreeNathji was at His mandir in Mewar.

For 2 years, 4 months and 7 days that ShreeNathji travelled from Vraj to Mewar, He spent living in His Rath.

The places blessed by Him along the way were, Hindmultan, Dandotighat, Bundi, Kota, Dhundhar, Marwad, Baanswaro, Dungarpur, Shahpura.

Giriraj Govardhan-Tongue at Radha\Shyam Kund

ShreeNathji, Shree Giriraj Govardhan

जीवहा मंदिर, राधा कुंड पर: Jihva (Shri Giriraj tongue) mandir at Radha Kund

राधा कुंड के इस मंदिर को गिरिराज जी की जीवहा (जीब, tongue)मानते हैं।

यह शिला जो आप देख रहे हैं, गिरिराज जी की पवित्र शिला है।

इसके पीछे एक वार्ता है:

‘श्री रघुनाथ दास स्वामी को एक कुआँ खोदना था, तो उन्होंने काम चालू करवाया। मज़दूर जब खुदाई कर रहे थे, उनका औज़ार एक शिला पर लगा जिस के कारण उस शिला से ख़ून बहने लगा।

खुदाई तुरंत बंद कर दी गई।

उसी रात स्वप्न में श्री कृष्ण ने श्री रघुनाथ स्वामी को बताया, “मैं गोवर्धन से अलग नहीं हूँ, यह शिला गिरिराज की जीभ है, उसे निकाल कर मंदिर में बिठाओ और पूजन शुरू करो।

राधा कुंड के जल से सेवा करो”।

यह वही प्राचीन मंदिर है; गिरिराज जी की हर शिला पवित्र और दिव्य है।

गिरिराज महाराज की जय हो!

श्रीनाथजी ठाकुरजी की जय

श्री राधा कृष्ण की जय
