Vraj Mandal Jhanki-Fulfil longing for drishy of Divine bhumi-1

Vraj Bhumi – First Jhanki

(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

Save Vrindavan

SAVE VRINDAVAN FROM THE GREED OF HUMANS:

Special strong laws is need of the hour. Already this sacred city has reached the point of no return. Few years more down the line and we will have a concrete jungle and heaps of waste littering all the divine vans. Yamunaji has already shrunk to the point of not being there.

#CMYogiAditynath #vrindavan

#CMYogiAditynath Stop trying to see #Vrindavan riding on your special #helicopters 🚁 and getting special darshans

#नरेंद्रमोदी #वृंदावन #मथुरा #Pmoindia

आज ७ जुलाई २०१९, वृंदावन में सूचना मिली की #CMYogiAditynath वृंदावन में पधार रहे हैं।

मीटिंग है और बाँके बिहारी जी के दर्शन के लिए जाएँगे।

सम्पूर्ण city को बंद कर दिया! रिक्शॉ तक को अंदर घूमने की अनुमति नहीं है। कई घंटों तक सब रोड बंद रहेंगे।

#CMYogiAditynath अगर आप VIP roads से आएँगे जाएँगे, शहर आपके लिए ख़ाली कर दिया जाएगा, आपको कैसे अन्दाज़ होगा की समस्या क्या हैं?

सुधार कैसे करेंगे?

फ़ालतू के projects पर budget ख़र्च करके आप समझते हैं आपकी duty पूरी हो गई?

शहर और तीर्थ की जो असल समस्या है, वहीं की वहीं रह जाती हैं।

क्या आपने कभी सोचा है की आप आपके VIP troup के साथ निकल जाते हैं, किंतु आप अभी नहीं जान पाते हैं, सत्य क्या है?

आज किन हालात में है यह पवित्र भूमि, जो श्री राधा कृष्ण का निवास है, जहाँ हर क़दम पर कोई लीला भूमि है?

वृंदावन आज इतने बुरे आक्रमण से जूझ रहा है, आप को कैसे पता चलेगा, आप कभी समझ ही नहीं सकते!

आक्रमण लालच में अंधे इंसान का है, जो इस पवित्र भूमि को लूटने पर तुले हैं।

#CMYogi

Please come down to the level of the common bhakt and try to see what is ailing my #Vrindavan.

Stop trying to see Vrindavan riding on your special #helicopters 🚁

Walk on the streets to know how you can truly help this dying #teerth

श्रीनाथजी #ठाकुरजी प्रभु आपको सद् बुद्धि देने की कृपा करें 🙏

Save Vraj Mandal-Stop the use of Plastic

“VRAJ MANDAL”

This is a post written in Hindi, as it needs to reach out to the locals and majority of bhakts speak and read Hindi, our National language. It is an appeal from this Vraj lover to take some immediate measures. It talks about the filth and plastic that has become a second layer on this sacred land of ShreeNathji, Shree RadhaKrishn.

#vraj #swachbharat #stopuseofplastic #radhakrishnbhumi #hinduteerth

श्री राधा कृष्ण, श्रीनाथजी की पवित्र लीला भूमि:

” व्रज के प्रेमी, व्रज मंडल को बचाना आपके हाथ में है”

श्री राधा कृष्ण, श्रीनाथजी की पवित्र लीला भूमि में आपका स्वागत है।
आप यहाँ आए हैं, आपको व्रज के हर शुभ चिन्तक का प्रणाम।

(आपसे विनती है, कृपया पूरा पोस्ट पढ़िए, और सहमत हैं तो औरों तक पहुँचाने में मदद करिये. अपने विचार कमेंट्स में जरूर शेयर करिये).
इस पवित्र लीला भूमि पर जो भी आते है, वह चाहे किसी भी मनोरथ से आते हो, कुछ आशीर्वाद लेकर ही लौटते है।
किंतु, आज के कलियुग में, हम जो दर्शन के लिए, कुछ पाने की लालसा से, इस पवित्र लीला भूमि में पैर रखते हैं, यहाँ के लिए दुखदायक हो रहा है।

ग़लत मत समझिए; मेरा सही मतलब कृपा कर के  आगे पढ़िए।

“इस पवित्र भूमि पर अपवित्रता कुछ ज्यादा ही बढ़ रही है।

पवित्र शक्तियाँ को हम मजबूर कर रहे हैं, की आप यहाँ से निकल जाइए”.

– क्योंकि, सर्वप्रथम बात यह  है, कि यहाँ ज्यादा भक्त आ रहे हैं (जो कि बहुत ही अच्छी बात है), लेकिन दुर्भाग्य से इस प्रदेश की सरकार यहाँ की प्रगति नहीं चाहती, इसलिए सुविधा नहीं बढ़ा रही हैं।

कचरा कूड़ा का ढेर हर गली में इखट्टा है। कहीं भी कूड़ादान की सुविधा नहीं दी है। सफ़ाई के लिए प्रशासन अपना काम नहीं कर रही हैं।

Blog-Help Braj Dham
लेकिन आप ज़रूर मदद कर सकते हैं, की जब यहाँ आयें तो प्लास्टिक और थेरमोकोल का इस्तेमाल ही ना करें। दुकानदार से प्लास्टिक लेने से मना कर दें।

DSC_0203
जब मैंने सफ़ाई करवाने की कोशिश की तो यह तथ्य सामने आया की व्रज मंडल की पवित्र भूमि में ६ इंच तक यह प्लास्टिक अंदर धँस गया है। झाड़ू लगाते रहो, तो भीतर से प्लास्टिक निकलता ही जाता है। कुछ साल और ऐसे ही होता रहा तो आप को साफ़ सुथरी व्रज की रज कहीं नहीं मिलेगी।

3-DSC02828 (2)4 _DSC26835 _DSC2676
– यहाँ पर बहुत ज़्यादा बिल्डिंग सोसायटी और टाउन शिप का निर्माण हो रहा है; जिस कारण से प्राचीन लीला भूमि के पेड़ और पशु पक्षी से उनकी जगह छिन गई है।

भक्तों से विनती है, अगर आप सिर्फ़ इन्वेस्टमेंट के लिए पैसा लगा रहे हैं, तो कृपया रुक कर फिर से विचार कीजिये. अगर यहाँ रहने का विचार नहीं है तो, व्यर्थ में फ़्लैट मत लीजिय। यहाँ बहुत अच्छे आश्रम और होटेल बने हैं, उनमें अच्छी सुविधा है, वहाँ रह सकते हैं।

अगर ख़रीददार ही नहीं होंगे तो प्राचीन वन को, काटकर यह व्यर्थ की इमारतें खड़ी करना बंद हो जाएगा।

_DSC0052_DSC0054

बिल्डर्स और प्रशासन मिलकर इस भूमि की काफ़ी तबाही कर चुके हैं, अगर अभी भी नहीं रुका तो आपको कोई प्राचीन पेड़ दिखाई ही नहीं देंगे ।

व्रज मंडल को दिव्य माना गया है, और यहाँ के वन और पेड़ो को दिव्य मानते हैं और उनकी पूजा करते हैं। श्री राधा कृष्ण की दिव्य लीला इन्ही वन में रची थीं, जिन्हें आज स्थानीय अधिकारी  बिल्डर्स  के साथ मिलकर कुछ पैसे के लालच में तबाह कर रहे हैं।

8 DSC02912

वे जानते ही नहीं की उनके लालच ने भक्तों से क्या छीन लिया है, क्योंकि उनमें भक्ति भाव नहीं है।
– प्रशासन ने हर दिव्य भूमि से लग कर, सफ़ाई करने वालों का गाँव बसा दिया है।

उन्हें हर तरह की सुविधा और खेती के लिए मुफ़्त भूमि भी प्रशासन की तरफ़ से मिली है।

जैसा कि हमें लोकल संतों ने बताया, इन गाँवों को बसाया था लीला भूमि की सफ़ाई करने के लिए। लेकिन प्रशासन उन को सुविधा देकर जाँच करना ही भूल गयी कि वह अपना काम करते हैं या नहीं।
इन की औरतें ने जंगल काटना अपना अधिकार समझ लिया, और बहुत ही प्राचीन पेड़ काट रही है घर में चूल्हा जलाने के लिए। अगर उन्हें कोई संत, या भक्त रोकने की कोशिश करता है, तो इन महिलाओं को अधिकार मिला है प्रशासन की ओर से;  वह पोलिस में शिकायत करे, और बिना सुनवाई के उस व्रज के भक्त को जेल में डाल दिया जाता है।
इस कारण से व्रज के भक्त लाचारी से व्रज का नाश होते देख ख़ामोश रह जाते हैं। क्योंकि प्रशासन में उनकी सुनवाई नहीं होगी।
इन गांववालों ने अपने बच्चों को सिखा दिया है, भीक माँगना। तो आप किसी भी स्थल पे जाइए, इनके बच्चों का झुंड आपको एक पल भी शांति से प्रार्थना नहीं करने देंगे। मुफ़्त स्कूल भी नहीं जाना चाहते हैं यह बच्चे।

– तीर्थ स्थल के भिखारी भगुए वस्त्र पहन कर अच्छी ख़ासी कमाई करते हैं।

बहुत ही आसानी से कमाई हो जाती है, और आराम का जीवन बिताते है।  ज़्यादातर सभी साधू भिखारी और छोटे बच्चे भिकारी, बीड़ी, चरस, गाँजा फूँकते हुए मिलेंगे। यहाँ के बच्चों को कामचोर मत बनाइये.
आप को सोच समझ कर दान करना चाहिए। पात्रता देखकर दान करिए।

तीर्थ स्थल, आराम की कमाई के स्थल होते जा रहे हैं।

इसलिए आप सभी व्रज भक्तों से हाथ जोड़ कर विनम्र प्रार्थना करती हूँ,
तीर्थ स्थल को पिकनिक स्पॉट नहीं बनाइए। इस लीला भूमि की पवित्रता आप के हाथ में है, इसे बनाय रखने में आपका सहयोग ज़रूरी है। प्रशासन के भरोसे पर तो व्रज मण्डल का विनाश हो रहा है।

12 DSC06281

दिव्य शक्तियों को साफ़, सुथरा पवित्र वातावरण चाहिए.
नहीं तो वह दिन दूर नहीं, की वे सब भूतल में गहरी उतर जाएँगी और हम हाथ मलते रह जाएँगे, अपने दुर्भाग्य पर। हमारे बच्चों को दर्शन का लाभ नहीं मिल पाएगा, और हम सब इसके ज़िम्मेदार  होंगे।

जय श्रीनाथजी, जय श्री राधा कृष्ण
कृपा करें, सदबुद्धि दें,
आभा शाहरा श्यामा

The divya shaktis are being drowned in this filth and plastic.

Please read the complete post, and play your role in trying to maintain the purity of this divine land.
It will really help if you write your thoughts in the comments, and share this post on as many pages and groups, so that the message spreads far and wide.
Thank you for reading this message;
Warm regards,

Vraj Mandal bhakt,
Abha Shahra Shyama.

Wake up Vraj Vasisis and Vaishnavs!

This photo is from your favorite most sacred Giriraj Govardhan!

You are not even allowed to climb on this most sacred Parvat; and if you do then you have to ask for forgiveness. The local Pundas here keep shouting at you if you even step close by mistake with your shoes or socks on. But these same Pandas turn a blind eye to this filth created by them only. Pictures speak more then any words I could have written. Wake up. Stop giving these local Pundas any dakshina till they realize their responsibility. They have become accustomed to loving in free, no matter what they do or dont do.

The most sacred parvat, Shri Govardhan is also drowing in plastic. This photo is from the Anyor side of the Girirajji.

ShreeNathji-Time to return to Vraj Mandal?

Shreeji has been on this earth for total of 605 years; and 342 years at Nathdwara , as in 2014 AD

From 1672 AD till today, 2014 AD, ShreeNathji has been in Nathdwara. It has been to fulfill His commitment to His dear bhakt Ajab Kunwari, a Rajput Queen.

His stay here at Nathdwara is  nearly coming to an end, and He maybe getting ready to return to His most favorite place, Braj Dham!

His stay here at Nathdwara is  nearly coming to an end, and He maybe is getting ready to return to His most favorite place, Giriraj Gowardhan on Braj Dham!

Here are listed some important dates in Thakurjee ShreeNathji’s Leela.

I have tried to put it as a image, so it becomes easy to read and remember. Details on the various years are already on our website for Shreeji:

    “Braj Dham –  Are the Divine Shaktis leaving us…?

(I apologise for depicting such filth about the divine land, but it is a sad state of affairs in ShreeRadhaKrishn-ShreeNathji Leela Bhumi)

Paragraph taken from my book: Zero2Dot.

http://www.zero2dot.org/

….  At this moment all who have been to Braj will agree how the authorities have let the whole of the area develop into an open sewage. There is no control or discipline in traffic as also the cleanliness of the district. Pilgrims are hounded by the locals and no one is allowed a moment’s peace in any of the important divine spots. The garbage is scattered all over and it looks worse than Bombay on a bad day (we call Mumbai the Slumbai and the sewer of the country).

Braj is called the Spiritual capital of this country and it definitely deserves better treatment from the government and of course from all the bhakts who visit or stay there. Rest of course is all in God’s hands, to decide what we deserve as humans.IMG_5043

(I do not like depicting my divine Braj in such filth, just a couple of pictures to show my point : these are from Govardhan and the prikrama marg;  there are spots worse then these; plastic is merging in a big way with the divine ‘Ruj’ of Vrindavan Dham and the sacred waters of Yamunaji. Because of the unplanned construction the sacred Sthals are being eaten away.  In areas like Sewa Kunj, Nidhi Van.. where one is not allowed to stay at night; surrounding structures have become so high, any one can peek at night within the sacred premises; they have also encroached in a big way sharing the boundary wall also! Similar there are several examples like this, all who visit Braj are very well aware of this fact.

???abhashahraDSC_0829DSC_0831IMG_5032IMG_50439

At Govardhan where ShreeNath Lives at the Mukharwind,  greed has made the locals take over HIS land. The shops have reached HIS door, the place where all believe ShreeNathji spends the night and the sacred place from where He has Appeared).

… There are so many spots like this, which are religious and sacred, but are not looked after due to various reasons. I feel, these places which are alive with the Presence of the Highest Energies and Powers, and the belief of the people being so high in them, deserve more importance from the concerned authorities.

 In spite of all the proofs as the original homes of the Deities, it is truly sad to see them having deteriorated to that extent. When the sacredness around the places is believed to be so high, it has to be looked after by the people who can exert the right power.

These sadhu, sanyasis, bhakts who have built their ashrams here, and people in power, own this to the Deities present there and to the Shraddha of the people who flock there for darshans.

This is a very intricate part of our spiritual culture, and dates back to before 5000 years; if proofs are there about this truth, why are they being neglected?

Why do we not feel strongly enough to protect the right environment, and give Shree RadhaKrishn “Energies” the highest purity and pavitra surroundings, so “They” can flow and flourish in their Form.

At this point I am sure “They” have been pushed in the corner as “They” will not flow when the right Bhao is not provided.

THE LOSS IS OURS; AS HUMANS THAT WE SHUT OUR EYES TO THE WEALTH AND RICHNESS OF THE HIGHER ENERGIES WE HAVE IN OUR MIDST.

“Who knows, some day “THEY” may decide we don’t just deserve it   all; and move away altogether?”

Where will that leave the sanctity of the place – which is accepted as the most Divine in our spiritual history?

(In June 2006, had the experience of being on the road in a car during the Govardhanji parikrama, at the Mansi Ganga area on a poonam. We were there with someone who was trying to show us some lands for purchase. It was like a stampede. We got caught in the worst human traffic with cars parked randomly every where. Not a single traffic policeman came to control the madness. There were lakhs of pilgrims doing the Govardhan Parikrama on that day, which is supposed to be a normal occurrence on poonam, over here. The whole scene turned so ugly we had 100’s of these people, including women and children climbing over our car, on the hood, the doors, the scene looked like monkeys gone mad(and I do not exaggerate) – basically over our heads to run for the parikrama. There was absolutely no bhao or religion in their hearts or minds. Like ShreeNathji then told us – “See these are humans today – there is no bhakti here. Even if God sat in that car they would not hesitate to climb on His head to get their share of “PUNYA” in completing the parikrama that day”. ShreeNathji wondered what these people actually deserved. None of the people there had the goodness of stopping for a few minutes to let the cars pass away.

There is a lot of selfishness and envy in the hearts and minds – I cannot talk about the soul as that is totally asleep yet in all of them.

The dirt from the left over food is scattered all over the side roads, and we talk about the Govardhanji being sacred?

Will GovardhanNathji – ShreeNathji ever reward them?

ShreeNathji

ShreeNathji

He gave us this experience to make us aware of the humanity today).

It would not be surprising if the Higher Energies decide to move away into the clean corners and leave all of us empty handed as may be this is what we truly deserve.

Peacock killing

The peacocks are a very intimate part of the Divine Krishn and Radha leela.

An appeal to not kill these beautiful birds for pleasure or food. They are as close to RadhaKrishn as His beloved sacred Cows!

This is news from Rajasthan, but holds true for sacred, divine, Braj Dham also.

Nidhi Van at Vraj Mandal

The sacred, divine Nidhivan at Vrindavan;

Nidhi Van-This is one of the Leela bhoomi of the Divine:

In this sacred kunj, the divine couple Radha and Krishn sometimes rest after performing the raas-lila dance. There is a small mandir which is the Shringar-ghar of Shreemati Radharani, called Rang – Mahal, where a bed is kept for them to rest. It is also here that Krishn decorates Radharani.

Another mandir is here; called Banke Bihari Pragatya Sthali; the divine murti of Bankey Bihari Appeared from this place.

There is another mandir here called the Bansi Chor Radharani, which shows Her playing Krishn’s flute; Her two close sakhis, Lalita and Vishaka stand here with Her.

You can also see the sacred kund which is known as Vishaka’s Kund.

Swami Haridas did bhajan here; his samadhi is here.
