Guest guest Posted June 11, 2001 Report Share Posted June 11, 2001 Silent soul, this story is for you.<br>About 80 yrs ago ther lived a blind babi near the Madanmohan temple of Vrindavan who was always crying in separation of Radha Krsna. Due to his continuous weeping he lost his eyesight but he was not sorry for it because he could not see Krsna. Therefore eyes were of no use to him.<br><br>So this baba had been weeping well on 40+ years. His life was near ending and his patience was at his wits end. Falling in and out of consciousness from separation there was no one to express sympathy with. Only the cuckoos and peacocks twittering were his only external sounds.<br><br>Soon this emotion of this bhakta's pain became unbearable to Krsna. As Radha and Krsna strolled through the Vrindavan woods they immediately came upon the weeping baba.<br><br>Radha said to Krsna, "Pyare (Beloved) Baba is always crying. Why not make him laugh just a little?"<br>So Krsna went to the baba and said, "Baba, why are you crying, has someone beaten you? Are you deprieved of something?"<br> "Oh no! Go away." Said the babaji in a rage.<br> "Baba, I shall bring you roti or chacha or whatever you want. But you must stop crying!!"<br> "Oh cowherd! Go and tend to your cows. Why have you come here to trouble me?" Then the baba turned his face from Krsna.<br><br>Krsna went back to Radha and said "Baba does not listen. He only weeps and weeps."<br>Radha said, "Pyare, you couldnt!" Just see how I make him laugh!"<br><br>to be cont. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
