Shakti-Fan Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Indulekha Indulekha is the sixth of the varistha gopis. She has a tan complexion and wears garments the color of a pomegranate flower. She is three days younger than Srimati Radharani. Her parents are Sagara and Vela-devi and her husband is Durbala . She is contrary and hot-tempered by nature. Noble Indulekha is learned in the science and mantras of the Naga-sastra, which describes various methods of charming snakes. She is also learned in the Samudraka-sastra, which describes the science of palmistry. She is expert at stringing various kinds of wonderful necklaces, decorating the teeth with red substances, gemology and weaving various kinds of cloth. In her hand she carries the auspicious messages of the divine couple. In this way she creates the good fortune of Radha and Krsna by creating Their mutual love and attraction. The group of gopis headed by Tungabhadra-devi are the friends and neighours of Indulekha. Among these gopis is a group, headed by Palindhika-devi , which acts as messengers for the divine couple. Indulekha-devi is fully aware of the confidential secrets of the divine couple. Some of her friends are engaged in providing ornaments for the divine couple, others provide exquisite garments and others guard the divine couple's treasury. Indulekha-devi is thus the leader of all the gopis engaged in these services in the various parts of Vrndavana. (SSRKGD) On the southeastern petal of Madana-sukhada Kunja lies the golden-colored Purnendu Kunja, where Sri Indulekha lives. She has a lemon-yellow complexion and wears a dress that is radiant like a pomegranate flower. She has a deep love for Sri Krsna and possesses the prosita-bhartrka-bhava. She often serves Krsna by bringing Him nectar-like delicious meals. Her age is 14 years, 2 months and 10 1/2 days. She is vama-prakhara and her principal seva is fanning with a camara. Her home is in Yavata, her father’s name is Sagara , her mother’s Vela and her husband’s Durbala . In gaura-lila she appears as Vasu Ramananda. In Sri I ndulekha’s yutha the chief gopis are Tungabhadra, Citralekha, Surangi, Rangavatika, Mangala, Suvicitrangi, Modini and Madana.

Is there a spiritual reason for that? waiting for ur quick reply .. adwait tripathi Hare Krishna Adwaitji, One should not become a mother or a father if they can't make their children into a devotee of Krishna. It is important to be a mother so that she can produce a devotee of Krishna. She is the one who can develop and nourish the child in Krishna conciousness. A mother is like a guru, we learn our first lessons from her- and most of the time those lessons that we first got from our mother stick with us for the rest of our life. The fruit does not fall far from the tree, so if we have a nice spiritual minded mother, she can instill in us the samskaras that will help us in our spiritual life. Jai Nitai! indulekhadasi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
