Oh Koti Dandavats Mukunda datta Prabhu, a kind shelter! Jaya Prabhupada.

 

Bilvamangala Thakura verse (from where?)

'Just up ahead there is a tall Arjuna tree; further ahead of that

there is a path. It goes up to a village of cowherds, who live in the Land

on the banks of the Yamunaa. On those banks of the Yamunaa beneath a grove

of Tamala trees, a gopa boy plays while herding a circle group of cows. If

you Go see Him my friend, He'll show you the way!

 

doesn't darzayiSyati sakhe mean (if you go see, my friend)? Comments oh

revered Sanskrit pandita(s) ?

 

I think that those particular words used by Bilvamangal Thakura *is very

significant*

 

By my foolish mind it looks, (pl. correct if not right) {*If* you see Him,

Oh Friend!) it either both refers to the lobha desire to acheive Krsna's

association, and it also leaves a choice for the minute independence of the

living entity.

 

as if he is saying *provided you will voluntarily approach* see Krsna-then

He'll agree to show you the way. This is consistent with Bg. 4.11.

 

Mukunda DAtta I thank you for the compassion that pushed you to send me this

nectar verse.

"Repeatedly butted by the the head of her calf, a cow moos

softly with maternal delight while her calf, one knee somewhat bent,

sucks her udder, waving it's tail beautifully; she then licks the

upturned face of her calf, whose mouth is sprinkled with droplets of

milk."

 

Where is this verse from Mukunda datta, those who love cows will love it! I

like the graphics you did too.

 

thanks for this nectar

 

Have you ever heard of Tulasi astotara naamavali? Do you know where it is

from?

Literally, "He'll show (you), friend."

That may be implicit.

I found it in Kieth's History of Sanskrit Literature; I don't

remember the author.

I've seen it on the net before, but I don't know where it's from.
