Fortune of sakhi darshan

26.12.02, Guntur Asham.


Nanna discussed many aspects of Radhaji during Dec.26th-28th with his disciples stating that Sri Radha is the highest, he explained the divine qualities of Radha sakhi.


" God is one who possesses divine powers. It is not proved that Lord Shiva possesses them. So that is the difference. Bhagawan, God is completely different. The Bhagawata mentions that God has six divine powers. "


" The Vedas said that because Lord Krishna worships Her, She became Radha. When the Lord himself worships Her, what can be said about the others? So don't put Mother (on par) along with the others? If you cannot worship Her only, give up completely. Can you make a Collector and peon sit on the same sofa? Radha is the highest according to Vedas. So it is not right to keep her along with other Gods. "


" One pointed devotion in great. Krishna will look after the welfare of his devotees only when they contemplate on him with one pointed devotion. Have only Radha or remove both. It is foolishness to remove Radha and worship the lower Gods. "


Nanna discussed about the contents of the book 'Brindavaneswari Sri Radha Devi -Volume-4.'


" ~Tadekam roopam dwidha vidhaya sarvanrasan samaharathi~. Divine leelas will increase your happiness. That is why one God became two to play the leelas. You must worship Her. This penance is also related to human beings welfare. "


'Nanna, you said that in the devotional path, none of these bonds are greater than that divine bond.'


" Yes, But when I do something, it is different. Your route is different. Your dharma is not the same as my dharma. Somebody is doing tapasya; that is his path. Rama left Sita; that is his path. Both are different...If I decide, I can remove all your karmas within five minutes. "


'Nanna while speaking about Radhasudhanidhi Verse 80, you said that one would become passive even towards divine dharma (kaisoradhbhutaha madhuribhara dhurinangachavim .......) when his mind is concentrated only on Mother. That means She is beyond all dharmas.'


" That must come naturally, not by your effort. Your mind will always be pulled down. You must stop it. That is sadhana. "


Nanna told the devotees who came to see him about how he cured a person in America from his incurable headache through telephone.


" Can you do such a feat in ten years time? Can atleast explain how it can be done? Suppose your friend in Australia is suffering from incurable pain. You must sit in the chair here and remove his pain. Time given is only three or four minutes. Can you do this feat? I am telling you this episode because I want you to know about Mother. "


" Dattatreya had 25 gurus. I also like him. I am the disciple and you all are my gurus. I respect you. Recently, somebody came to me weeping that their daughter's marriage is not being finalised. She got married recently to a well-qualified boy. Mother looks after everything. "


After the devotees left, Nanna told us that he had a yoga school. However, he was unable to cure his niece. That is why he brought her near Nanna.


" Saint Francis of Assesee was the only man, a Christian, who had super imposition power. He proved his power to the world. When the wild animal came chasing towards him, he drew a cross in the air. The animal retreated back. Ofcourse, we don't draw a cross, when we exercise our power. "


'Nanna, did you show sakhi bhava towards the snake in S.Kota?'


" Don't mention about sakhi. Develop a frame. Don't break it down to small sakhi, big sakhi, muslim sakhi, young sakhi....not like that. Actually it is Mother's bhava. That's all. It cannot be defined beyond that. You can develop on Radha bhava. When I touch the snake with Radha bhava, it cannot speak. Many people saw that it remained still. Radha bhava is essential. Radha is considered as the manifestation of maha bhava, highest bhava. In this bhava, there is no object which you will dislike. Don't limit Mother! Don't limit to sakhi bhava. I had this bhava even before I worshipped Radha.. "


A couple came to take Radha mantra from Nanna.


" Due to this mantra's power, Sati Devi came alive after death. It is so powerful. The Brahmavaivartha Purana mentions about this powerful mantra. Goddess Kanakadurga Devi gave me this mantra and told me to do penance on Indrakiloadri Hill in Vijayawada for forty days. I am giving you that mantra. You need not even chant the whole mantra. If you say Radhe Radhe, it is enough. The power in the mantra is present in Her name also. So, when you face a problem, don't ask anybody for help. Simply say Radhe! Radhe! in your mind. You must listen with your mind and chant with your mind only. Your lips should not chant. Your physical form must not take Her name. When you chant in your heart, it will take you to the thoughtless world. You can do mantra here for some time. "


" This is a powerful mantra. I chanted it for many years in the forest. I attained some power which no human being has, even till today, nobody else possesses such power. The mantra is so powerful! I am giving that highly powerful mantra to you. Only your heart must utter and listen to the mantra, not your body. Keep Mother's portrait, offer Her milk and do mantra for one hour in the morning and one hour in the evening. Later, both of you drink the milk offered to Her. "


Speaking about Radhaji's supremacy, Nanna said:


" Radhaji's leela is visible but Radhaji is invisible. Understand this point carefully. Mother's leela will continue but She remains invisible. A very few mahatmas may see Her. Mother is not so easy to get. Her leelas are continuing. If you face a problem, don't worry. Simply take Mother's name and keep quiet. Her leela will satisfy everything. Suppose your health is upset, it does not matter. Mother is there for you. Offer Her m ilk, do dhyana for half an hour in the morning and evening and drink that milk. You will improve slowly. "


" We, Mother's devotees will not have any enemies. One lady made a wrong propaganda against me and went to Court. She created a fake will that Amma (Sri Radha mahalaxmi amma) transferred her property to that woman's name. She filed a case that I was a cheater and a bad man. Normally, the accused is made to stand in the witness box. The judge saw me and said 'please do not stand in the witness box. I will arrange a chair for you.' He asked me whether I would like to say anything in self defence. 'I will not defend myself. You please do whatever you feel right.' He declared 'I will not believe her words.' We won the case. "


" I called that lady to our house and gave her Rs.5000/-. This is one pointedness! You must see Radha only even in such a lady. I saw Mother in Her. I called her home, gave her respect, found out her well-being and gave her money. I offered to give her Rs.5000 every year. She began to weep. "


" I saw Mother even in the snake. When I used to call out 'Mother' every morning, the snake came out of its pit and drank coffee. When the snake charmer brought a snake, I would pour milk in a bowl. The snake would come and drink the milk.(Nanna was weeping). I have tears in my eyes. Nobody in the world will come forward and give it milk. I pity that poor jeeva. "


Such is Nanna's kindness! Later he spoke about Radha Krishna's leela.


" When Krishna wanted to enter, Lalitha sakhi stopped him. He cried piteously. Mother said 'Please allow him to enter.' 'No, I won't allow him.' Then Mother held Her sakhi's chin and pleaded 'My dear, please, please all him to come in'. Then she allowed him to enter. If you do not show one pointed devotion towards Krishna, then towards whom can you show? That lady was pricked by my one pointedness towards Mother. "


Nanna is that Mahatma who saw only Radhaji even in the lady who went to court against him. Nanna defined that as 'Ananyanishta'-one pointed devotion towards Mother. He saw Mother not only in human beings but animals also. Describing Radha Krishna's leela is such a dramatic way, he showed the one pointedness that each possessed-Radhaji towards Krishna; Krishna towards Radhaji and sakhi towards Radha and Krishna. This is a wonderful and unique combination indeed!

Nanna hummed a tune of the divine music which he only could hear.


" Nobody else can hear it except me. It is so soothing. That divine music has no beginning or end. It is not a song... "


" Mother has unique powers. The Superintendent of the General Hospital came to me with a problem related to his son who became mad along with his wife. She is the Head Mistress of a Govt. High School. Somebody appeared in his dream and told him to meet me. That is how he came near me. Of course, he continues to visit me even now. He is a renowned heart specialist. The boy agreed to come near me only if his parents give him Rs.100/- for every visit. They agreed. One day they gave him only Rs.50/- due to lack of change. He came half way and went back. 'You did not give me full amount. You gave half amount, so I went half distance.' I told them to lock that boy in the room. I gave him the vibrations of mantra while he was inside the room. He became normal. That boy is now studying in Degree College. Mother has mysterious powers. "


Thus Nanna put Mother before him. Radhasakhi has many divine powers. He can remove the suffering of a person without even seeing or touching him. He declared 'I attained the powers which no human being has.' Again saying 'Mother has mysterious powers, he taught us how a guru will keep himself behind and put God before him.


" That boy does not know my true form. We must all hold Mother. Nothing belongs to us. We don't need anybody. Mother gives me whatever I want. You cannot see Her. It is very difficult to see Her. But everything comes from Mother only. I can tell more than this. Nobody can tell who Mother is! She has form yet She is formless. This room is the witness for that. I do not know why and who converted this room to Air conditioned. That is Mother! I can't say any more. She came to this Earth as a two year old child, alone. 'where is Krishna?' 'He is within Her.' She showed Krishna who is in Her. She only gave him that form. That is what the Vedas said, What can I say? "


The topic moved to writing a book on sakhi's life.


" When you are clam and peaceful, you will get the thoughts. Become a sakhi first and then begin to write the book. You don't have the authority to write till you become a sakhi. Mother will give the thoughts to you. Sakhi tattwa will come from within you. You write whatever thoughts you get. "


" I do not know the person who spent money to make this room into Air-conditioned. That thought came to him from Her! Everything happens within you. Mother is formless; She is continuing Her leelas. She is my guru. "


" When you read about sakhis lives, you will get some thoughts. That is the direct method. Let us not imagine anything. Read about one sakhi's life. As you begin, you will get thoughts from within. They lead their lives with Mother. We must follow them. Observe the common qualities of the sakhis. You will weep when you listen to them. Sakhis are full of bhava. They weep even when they think of Mother. I also have some experiences. You can include them in the book. When a devotee could write a book titled 'Rasayogi' about me, a small element; why wouldn't somebody write the life of sakhis? We must obtain those books. They may be available with Kishori Aliji. "


" When there is a book about me, there will be books on them also. That is my point. Radhaji will give many experiences. A lady in America saw me there. These are sakhi experiences. When others come to know about them, they will also follow. "


" Annapurna, a devotee composed many songs on me with such happy tunes that so many people gathered to listen to those songs. Beautiful tunes, excellent music. "


" You must include leelas in the book. Then only it will attract the reader. There is no use of writing many pages on sakhi tattwa without any leelas. Without experience, it is not life. The philosophy whould be developed like that. When that boy narrated his experiences on seeing Mother and wept near his guru, he said 'you are blessed. My Mother came near you.' That is experience! Every devotee will certainly have some experience or other. You are describing their life, not leelas. "


'Nanna, such experiences are included in the second half of the book. You did not listen completely.'


" You must include the leela where Mother puts Her left leg on his feet...You must also write about Taj Begum. She can be considered almost as a sakhi. "


Nanna speak to somebody who came to see him about Sri Radhasudhanidhi.


" That book is not written by any human being. It consists of 270 vrses. The 80th verse (Kaisoradhbhuta maduribhara ....) highlights that Mother will remove the karmas of those who do incessant dhyana on Her. I saw that verse and followed it. She pulled me to Brindavan. You must give up all other mantras and hold Her only. In sanyas, you must give up even Radha mantra. So you must give up everything excepting Mother... "


Nanna could not speak further as he was filled with bhava. The stage of 'Para' exists beyond the states of awake, deep sleep and dreaming. Radha is above the state of 'Para'. Krishna, the complete God himself worships Radha. To take sanyas, one must give up even such Radha mantra. Nanna said that we don't need such sanyas. Saying that She pulled him to Brindavan, he clarified his association with Brindavan and Brindavaneswari. Our Nanna is the confidential sakhi of Radhaji, who is beyond the reach of Brahma and other gods even in their dhyana. Such a sakhi came to earth as Nanna and moved among us, speaking to us. He gathered ordinary people like us and told us extraordinary truths about rasa tattwa. The Gods might be amazed watching Nanna glowing with sakhi bhava. Not only we but even gods may not be able to understand his love and kindness. Once he said 'Sakhi darshan is not easy.' He not only granted us his darshan but also the fortune of being in his presence. 'I don't know what to say about Mother! What can I say?' He spoke thus while trying to describe Radhaji. What can we say about Nanna, who is the hladini aspect of Radhaji? The little we can say about him is what he kindly granted to us himself.

There is no other fortune which is greater than sakhi darshan. This is the truth!

'Sri Radha! The Sovereign of Brindavan! How can I lovingly worship you and serve You if You do not grant me Your darshan in a sakhi's form and embrace me with Your infinite kindness.'
