'Doore srishtyadi...kunjaveedhiimupasthe' - Sriradhasudhanidhi (Verse 235)
|
Lord Krishna stays away from all matters related to creating, maintaining, or destroying material worlds. He is not even thinking of Narada and other true devotees. He is not meeting Sridama or any of his dear friends. He ignores his parents love. Thinking only of Sri Radha, who is the pinnacle of love and essence of the fathomless ocean of sweet nectarine rasa, day and night Krishna worships the path that leads to Nikunj.
|
Sri Hitacharya envisioned and said that Sri Krishna kept aside all activities of punishing the wrong, protecting the right and establishing dharma. He is moving in the Brinda kunj in search of the essence of rasa, Sri Radha's prema tattwa.

Radhasakhi is the confidential sakhi of The Supreme Sri Radha, who is the deity of Lord Krishna. With utmost kindness towards mankind, Radhasakhi made her presence in this world in Nanna's divine body and showered her love on jeevas. Worship, sankeertan, dhyana, speeches, Sri Brindavaneswari Sri Radha volumes, vibrant flow of power; all these are waves of the prema rasa ocean flow. Radhasakhi is the inseparable aspect of Radhaji whom Lord Krishna worships and pleads for Her forgiveness; whom Brahma and other demi Gods do dhyana to attain a glimpse of the glow of Her toe nails. The confidential sakhi is Her partner in rasa.

We had the fortune to address such an unattainable hladini sakhi as Nanna and be in his divine presence. Our fortune is beyond comprehension. As Nanna said, due to her unconditional kindness, we are in Her loving sight and are able to utter 'Radha Radhe.'
|
On 11.12.2001 Nanna has rasa darshan in Srinikunj with bhava deha. Though he strongly felt like staying back there, he came down only for spiritual upliftment of mankind. He told that his incessant dhyana continues simultaneously on Earth, astral plane and in rasa dham. We do not have the capacity to understand his words. Then what can be said about our Rasikasiromani? Only by his grace, we are able to share the words spoken by him.
|
"Is anything impossible for me?" Nanna's words are gradually being understood by the world."Sri Radha's name must be heard in every corner of the world." Radhaji is watching his wish, desire and implementation with a splendid smile! She loves to make Her sakhi's wish come true. Today Nanna's devotees are spread all over the world ; which means Her worship and sankeertan are happening there regularly. Irrespective of caste and creed, his devotees are reciting Her name with ecstasy . In a surprising way, many new devotees are joining this flow of maha rasa. The divine name of the all pervading Mother, the Supreme Sovereign of rasa will certainly be heard in all parts of the world! Nothing is impossible for Nanna!!

While speaking about yearning, Nanna mentioned about Rukmini and how she expressed her yearning in the letter which she sent to Krishna through a Brahmin. He added 'Some Rasikacharya will come to us and by his presence, by his weeping, by his talks, we will be converted and will lose all attractions for earthly pleasures.' Nanna came down as the Rasikacharya , our Rasa Guru who will take us to Radhaji's presence. Rukmini pleaded with the Guru who was in the form of a Brahmin. Here, our pleading, our eligibility do not matter. Only Radhaji's love and benevolent mercy prevail!
|
"These lives are in my hand. I will give you". Categorically stating so, he also said 'Everything in your world is karma; everything in my world is leela. I am formless but my leelas have got a form.' On 29.04.2003 , he stated 'I am the head of this worldly play.' . 'I will not leave a single jeeva who comes into my sight.'
|
In 2002, a lady doctor spoke to Nanna for a long time and said that her mother was unable to stand even after using many medicines. Nanna said 'make a phone call to her. I will make her walk.' They were unable to contact her on phone. 'This is my mother's bad luck.' After she left, Nanna asked me whther the doctor was male or female. I was shocked. 'I am speaking the truth. Except Mother, I am not aware of anything else.' He spent every moment of his life in an exalted state of rasa. No wonder he proclaimed, 'Your final goal is not Krishna. You should never meditate on Krishna. Your final goal is bhakti. Bhakti is an absolute term, not in terms of Krishna or others.'
|
Nanna is a tender rose. He knows only to love everybody. Seeing that despite listening to his words, we are again drowning in the worldly matters, he never got angry. He lovingly taught us to 'talk less; think less; Mother likes this.' I pray to Nanna's holy feet that we all must have the great fortune of living like the 'living lives of Nanna'.
|
How much ever is said about Nanna, how much ever is written about him, it is only infinitestimal! Because Nanna is 'An Endless Divine Continuity'!

Always at the lotus feet of Radhasakhi
