Author's Foreword

"Jagrutswapna sushupth i... mano vindathu'" Sri Radhasudhanidhi, Verse 164

'May the glow of Sri Radha's holy feet shine in my heart in all the three states of wakening, dream and deep sleep. I don't want anything except Radha, whether it is heaven or hell. My mind, swaying in the waves of Sri Radha's plays, is enjoying bliss in the temple on the bank of Yamuna'

In the above verse, Sri Hitacharya taught about Sri Radha's incessant dhyana and one pointed devotion towards Her.

Our Guru, our Nanna, the Radhasakhi is Sri Radha's blessing to us. Srihitaji declared that 'I am the tattwa which cannot be separated from Sri Radha' . While listening to the above verse, our confidential sakhi of Radhaji went into complete sakhi bhava. 'Sri Hitacharya mentioned about dhyana which takes place in three states. I crossed those states now. I am in super dhyana state. My dhyana is continuously taking place on earth as well as in rasa dham. I crossed the bhava of this verse. I am not bound by any verse.' Nanna revealed this true tattwa in these words.

'Kaya kunj .......Shyama Shyam' -- Bhagawath Rasikadevji

The body of rasika mahatma who surrendered to Radhaji and has one pointed devotion for Her is a kunj, his mind is the palace of nikunj and his eyes are the beautiful entrance doors to the palace. Sri Shyama and Shyam will happily reside in that mahatma's heart.

With such a pure and loving life, Rasika Siromani, Sri Radhika Prasad ji became our guru by the grace of Sri Radha. He is not only our guru but also our father, mother, child, above all our dearest sakhi. Saying 'you can't see me', he expressed clearly who he is. Yet he came down all the steps to be our guru. If we understand even an iota of our fortune, it will be unbearable to live away from him. This is very evident in our Anjani amma who is carrying out the activities handled to her by Nanna while burning with the agony of separation from her guru every moment. Knowing our struggle to move on the path of rasa, Radhaji gave us a part of Herself, Radhasakhi as Nanna. He gave us a part of himself as Anjani amma. We can't even imagine their love and kindness.

Nanna is drawing us towards him with love knowing fully that we are aimlessly engulfed in our materialistic family life. He is continuously handing us Sri Radha incessant dhyana which will remove our karmas. Having declared that 'Dhyana is my subject; dhyana is my message' he spoke only about Radha bhava dhyana not only in his speeches but also in all his conversations. Not how many times he mentioned one point but how deeply it penetrated into us is important. Each one of us must do introspection and analyze how much of what has transmitted is being implemented by us. 'This material life is useless; this is my last material life; I will not come again.' He might be fed up with this world, yet he is patiently talking to us about Radhaji. Radhaji said 'he came here by chance . if he leaves, there is no coming back.' Nanna's arrival to earth is so significant. None of his words are meaningless. Being the aspect of Sri Radha's power of ecstasy, he sent powerful vibrations with every word he spoke. Each would receive as much as he can!

'When it is possible for me to contemplate on Mother day and night, why not for you? You also can do it.' Saying 'Mother enters into our sadhana routine and nourishes it', he inspired us towards dhyana. Mentioning that Radhaji came out of Vedadri temple as rose fragrance, he said 'the people who came to visit the temple came towards me instead of going inside. This is a great miracle. It must be written somewhere.' He intends that we all must benefit by realizing Radhaji and Radhasakhi through this special incident. 'When you say Krishna's deity is color, nobody will object' He made a super commentary on Sri Radha Krishna's oneness. Though Rasikacharya's like Nanna explain with references from Vedas, many cannot accept that Krishna worships Radha. That is why he said they will not object if we say that Krishna worships Her color! He has seen every shade and nuance of so many people!

When Radhaji asked Nanna to come into Her service, immediately he quit his job. Without any money but with people depending on him, only Nanna could take such a seemingly impossible decision. This was possible only because of Sri Radha ananya nishta (one pointed devotion) and a life of surrender to Radhaji. This is what he inhaled and exhaled! Mother looked after him in totality and guided his life.

'I am a worshipper of rasa.' Sri Radha bhava dhyana is an essential part of rasa worship. He handed over this dhyana to all jeevas without any discrimination. He is striving every moment to uplift the living beings. I pray to him to grant us the fortune of reaching his holy feet soon.

This book filled with Nanna himself is being printed by one of his loving devotees. I pray that they attain the companionship of Sri Radha sakhi forever.

Mother! It is so long that I am away from you, the loving bhava of love and rasa leela are not visible. Mother, protect me and shower Your loving grace.

 
 

 

 

Always at the lotus feet of Radhasakhi
