Guest guest Posted February 26, 2001 Report Share Posted February 26, 2001 ACHIEVE SRI SRI RADHA-KRSNA WITHOUT ANY SADHANA BHAKTI Text 35 tathapi sadhu-varyam tvam manyr nagadhipa hh aham sri-radha-krsna-lilayam idrsi tr rucid bhavet O king of the serpents (Sri Anantadeva), I think You are the best of saintly devotees. That is why You are attracted to Sri Sri Radha-Krsna's transcendental pastimes. Text 36 koti-kalparjitaih punyair vaisnavah syai maha-mate tatah syaa radhika-krsna- lilaso rucid uttama O great-hearted one, after accumulation of pious deeds for millions of kalpas one may become a pure devotee. Only then will one be attracted to Sri Sri Radha-Krsna's transcendental pastimes. Text 37 syad yasya radhika-krsna- lilayam parama matih jivan-muktah sa vijneyah pujyah syad daivatair api A person who fixes his oure heart on Sri Sri Radha-Krsna's pastimes is liberated even as he continues to live in this world. Even the demigods worship him. Text 38 vina sri-gopika-sangam kalpa-koti-satam param sravanat kirtanad visnor na radha-krsnam apnuyat Without the association of the gopis, even by hearing and chanting Lord Visnu's glories for hundreds of millions of kalpas, one will not attain Sri Sri Radha-Krsna. Text 39 gopi-sangam na capnoti sri-gaura-caranad rte tasmad tvam sarva-bhavena sri-gauram bhaja sarvada Without the feet of Lord Gaura one cannot attain the gopis association Therefore, with all Your heart You should always worship Lord Gaura. Text 40 gauranga-caranambhoja- makaranda-madhuvratah sadhanena vina radham krsnam prapsyanti niscitam They who become bumblebees tasting the honey of Lord Gauranga's lotus feet certainly attain Sri Sri Radha-Krsna without following any process of sadhana-bhakti or Vedic rituals. Text 41 yahi turnam navadvipam bhaja gaurai krpa-nidhim yadi vrndavanr ramye sri-radha-krsna-sannidhau dasatvam durlabham loke bhakti-saram yai icchasi If You desire the best of all kinds of devotional service: direct service tn Sri Sri Radha-Krsna in beautiful Vrndavana, then go at once to Navadvipa and worship Lord Gaura, who is an ocean of mercy. >From Sri Navadvipa-dhama-mahatmya by Thakura Bhaktivinoda Translation by Kusakratha Prabhu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
