All the forms of God and Goddesses known as
almighty powers are naturally self-submitted to Radha Krishn.
Almighty forms of God have Their Blissful form of Divine regality
which a Saint experiences in Vaikunth. It is somewhat like a king to
his subject’s relationship and preferences. The loving form of Radha
Krishn is the ocean of unlimited Divine Bliss. It reveals such a ‘love’
that is beyond imagination. It is so marvelous that even Goddess
Maha Lakchmi cannot describe it. That makes it exceptionally special
and great. Just think, if the sandalwood tree bears a flower, how
deep and exciting would be its fragrance? This is the excellence of
Radha Krishn love as compared to the Blissfulness of Vaikunth.
The Upnishads say that ahladini power is
the supreme power of God Krishn that holds all the powers within
itself. He is called
poorntam purushottam brahm, the supreme personality of God.
Thus, all the forms of God reside within Krishn, whereas all the
forms are absolute and are Divinely one. Also, all the forms are the
various forms of Krishn Himself representing Their respective Divine
powers with varying Blissful elegance. Thus, there is an absolute
oneness with definite Blissful differences in all the forms of God.
This simultaneous non-differential difference is the natural feature
of God Krishn which is established by the yogmaya, Radha, Who
is the essence and life force of ahladini power.
The concentrated essence of ahladini power
is called the ‘Divine love power’, like the concentrated perfume of
rose flowers in an essence form. This is the power that manifests
the loving leelas of Krishn. The absolute essence of the
Divine love, and absolute culminated state of all the exciting,
loving and thrilling aspects of the Divine love power is Mahabhao.
That Mahabhao is Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani, the supreme
Queen of Divine Vrindaban. Her eight personal aides, Lalita etc.,
are the expansion of Her own personality.
So, Radha Krishn are the absolute supreme brahm
in two forms. Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani is the
supreme para shakti. The Puranas describe the superiority of Radha
upon leela purushottam Krishn by saying that Radha is the
‘soul’ and ‘life breath’ of Krishn and thus She is the origin of
Krishn’s all-greatness. However, Radha and Krishn are one; whatever
is Radha, the same is Krishn.
The Divine beauty of Radha and Krishn is beyond
imagination. Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj has revealed
thousands of chantings and pads that describe the Gracious beauty of
Their Divine form. The following are English translations of two of Shree Maharajji’s Divine chantings explaining the exceeding beauty
of Radha, and Krishn’s supreme form and exquisite decorations.
Roop Agadhey Radhey, Radhey Meri Radhey…
The beauty of Radha is boundless. My Radhey is
wearing a golden crown studded with precious jewels. The glittering
chandrika on Her crown is decorated with a fine chain of
pearls. Radha Rani is wearing a red bindi on Her
forehead and Her ears are adorned with ear-pendants. Her lotus eyes
are decorated with collyrium and She looks very innocent. Radha is
wearing a shiny nose ring and nose pearl in Her nose. Her sweet
smile is heart-enticing. The fancy bracelets and rings on Her hands
are fascinating and Her palms are decorated with henna. My Radhey is
wearing an attractive blue blouse. Bead chains of sparkling pearls
and precious gems are glorifying Her neck. She is wearing elegant
bangles on Her wrists and Her delicate waist is decorated with an
ornate waistband. Anklets are glorifying Her lotus feet and Her toes
are bejeweled with cute little toe rings. Radhey’s toenails are
glittering like ten precious jewels and Her lotus feet are decorated
with javak (a liquid red color used to adorn the feet). Shree
Kripaluji Maharaj says that the amazing Divine beauty of my Radhey
is so fascinating that it entices the heart of Manmohan Krishn.
Wari Banwari Par Wari, Wari Wari Wari…
A devotee says: I adore Banwari Krishn. The Divine
body of Krishn has the bluishness of the alsi flower. The
beauty of millions of Kamdev’s could be sacrificed on the beauty of
each pore of Krishn’s body. Whose heart would not be captivated by
looking at the black curly hair of Krishn? I adore His peacock
feather diadem and yellow silken clothing. Even God Shiv and Shukdeo
are drowned in His love when they see Krishn. The beauty of
thousands of Ratis (wife of Kamdev) can be sacrificed on His sweet
smile. I adore the beauty of Krishn’s golden ear-pendants and
nose-pearl, the beautiful bangles that adorn His wrists, and the
beautiful kaustubh jewel that adorns His chest. The beauty of
His elegant peetambar (yellow silken shawl) and the pretty
kachni (silken scarf tied around His waist), the jeweled
waistband around His waist, and jingle-bells of the anklets on His
feet, are heart enticing. Shree Kripaluji Maharaj says that I adore
the Divine glow of Krishn’s toenails.
Shree Maharajji has revealed the Divine forms of
Radha Krishn extensively through kirtans and pads.
Several from Prem
Ras Madira are presented below:
A Gopi is saying that her Both beloveds
Radha and Krishn reside in her heart. Vrishbhanu Nandini Radha has a
fair complexion and Krishn has a bluish complexion. They are
standing in a beautiful nikunj with Their arms around each
other.
That side, Radha is elegantly dressed up in blue,
and Krishn is in yellow on this side. That side, Radha Rani is fully
adorned with all the sixteen steps of beautification and
decorations, and, on this side, Krishn is neatly dressed up in His
glorious natvar style. (The personality of Krishn is like
chabi, the plain Divine beauty, and of Radha is like shringar,
the loving, charming and exciting adornments of that Divine beauty.)
That side, beautiful Krishn beautifies the heart of all-adorned
Radha Rani, the shringar, and, on this side, all-adorned
Radha Rani adorns the heart of beloved Krishn, the chabi. (It
means that Krishn is in the heart of Radha and Radha is in the heart
of Krishn.)
The Gopi says, "Those who always watch the
loving beauty of Both Divine beloveds, Radha Krishn, are really the
most lucky ones in the universe."
(Krishn used to go to the Yamuna river in the
morning to give His darshan to the Gopis who have
received His love, and also to impart His love to other Gopis
who have not yet received His Divine love. This pad describes
one of the scenes of the loving beauty of Krishn.)
Krishn has just come and He is standing near the
river Yamuna. He is standing in His tribhangi pose. The twist
of His crown and the bend of His neck, waist and feet is exceedingly
eye-pleasing. The elegance of the entwining of the peetambar
with the stick which He is holding is envying millions of Kamdevas.
His pretty flute is neatly tucked in His kachni which He is
elegantly wearing around His waist and on the top of His yellow
dhoti. Glancing here and there He is lovingly looking at the
Gopis which they very much admire.
A shy Gopi (who couldn't lift her veil and
see Krishn face to face out of her blushingness) is lovingly
watching the heart-exciting reflection of Krishn in the Yamuna river
(and is slowly getting drowned in His love).
(A devotee says:) O my mind! Always
remember the all-adorned beautiful Bhanu Nandini Radha Rani in your
heart. (You must know, that) all-virtuous brahm Shyam Sundar
also remembers Her day and night.
Radha Rani wears a small elegant gold
chandrika which is suspended in the middle of Her gold crown.
(They are uniquely studded and ornamented with radiant precious
jewels like diamond, sapphire, ruby and emerald, etc. of various
shades and sizes.) Under the crown there is a continuous line of
intercrossing mini loops of extremely small and fine pearls.
She has a fair complexion and, on Her
head and around the upper part of Her body She wears choonari
which is decorated with very fine elaborate golden embroidery and
has a wide border. On the lower part of Her body She wears a blue
color silken or velvet long lavishing skirt (with a very wide border
of golden work, ornated with little jewels and sparkling materials.
The middle of the skirt is spangled and adorned with fancy little
patterns of exquisite embroidery).
(Delicately designed and excessively
jeweled) ear-pendants are flashing on Her ears, Her hair is braided
and decorated with fragrant flowers, and Her eyebrows are naturally
shaped like a bow without any doing. A tiny ornament, a nose pearl
(made out of one single and slender pearl and suspended from the
middle of the nostrils with a fine link), appears to be playing with
Her upper lip, and Her loving smile is catching the heart, mind and
soul of everyone with its sweet fascination.
Anklets on Her lotus feet (with tiny
and round jingle bells and jeweled with multicolor sparkling
jewels) enliven the grace of Her superbly elegant gait (with their
delicate soft, melodious resonance when She walks,) and they make
the winner of the honor of having the beautiful walk, the hans
bird, run away with shame. (The devotee again says:) O my mind!
(What are you waiting for?) After hearing the kindness and the
lovingness of such a Swamini, Radha Rani, why don’t you rush and
cling to Her lotus feet forever.
The sweet nectar of Radha Krishn love
is showering in Divine Vrindaban. The beauty of
sapphire-complexioned Krishn, Who is the crown jewel of all the
rasik Saints and Who is wearing an elegant kaustubh jewel
necklace, is charming. And the beauty of Radha, Who has a
heart-enticing gait and Who is the crest jewel of all the Goddesses,
is more charming than Krishn Who is the stealer of Gopis’
hearts.
With Their fascinating gestures and
movements, Both, Radha and Krishn, are dancing with
heart-captivating elegance and singing in a sweet melodious voice.
While doing raas, Radha Krishn delight each other by Their
loving frolics and smiles, and They entice the heart of the Gopis
with Their Blissful actions.
A Gopi says, "Out of all the
visions, I take the most pleasure in seeing Radha Krishn when They
put Their arm around each other (and looking into the eyes of each
other when They look towards us)."
