Nanna, the embodiment of love molded his love as prema yoga, bhava yoga, karma yoga and vatsalya yoga. He is the fully accomplished one who moved as one among us and gave us the touch of his love. There are hardly one in a million who is accomplished like Nanna.
|
Every mother loves her child; every bird loves its babies. This is world of affection is limited and fluctuating. We are mistaking this affection for love. Nanna is that siddhi purusha who made us taste Mother's love which never ceases but increases in intensity every moment; which is ever new every moment. He explained about all the obstacles one must face and taught us the intricate sadhana to reach Mother in a simplified manner. We must now make an attempt to practice what Nanna taught us and move forward. If we take four steps forward, Nanna will take ten steps towards us and take us near Mother.
|
This book is the ninth step given to us by Nanna. We must read and follow his words carefully. The nine volumes of 'Nannatho' - 'Our Association with Nanna' are the nine paths of devotion stated in the Bhagwata. If we do sadhana implicitly following Nanna's words, we will definitely obtain Her grace. In the tenth chapter of Bhagawata, God created rasa with Mother and enacted the leela. Similarly, Nanna will provide us the opportunity to play with Mother in the tenth volume of this book. Nanna has the eagerness, interest, yearning and grace that we all must also experience the bliss which he did. We shall all try to follow what he granted us with such love!
|
Do not get involved with unnecessary matters and discussions. Let us be associated only with Mother. This is the path laid down by Nanna. As days, hours and minutes pass by, we are moving closer to death. If we do the sadhana to reach Her, She will easily pull us away from the jaws of death, towards Her. If we do not use this opportunity provided to us by Nanna, we cannot reach our goal even after innumerable lives. This is the truth! As the Gita says 'Ananyaschinthayantho mam..', let us contemplate on Mother with one pointed devotion. This is possible only with the grace of our Guru.
|
It is very difficult to obtain a Guru who provides so many opportunities to us. Though King Parikshit had Sage Srisuka, who was full of Radha bhava as his Guru, he could not feel the touch of that rasa! That is sheer bad luck! Though we did not do such penance, Nanna granted us the taste of Sri Radha rasa. This is the fruit of our good deeds over several births. All of us must make the best use of this opportunity.
|
Let us imagine how wonderful the tenth volume of this book would be and enjoy that bliss. I pray to Nanna to bless Rasamani with the strength to bring out the next volume.

Raramma raramma manchiroju vacchinadi ; Mana Nanna venchese manchiroju vacchinadi

Radhamma nannaki ishtham ;
Radhammaki Nanna ishtham ;
Nannaki manamandaram ishtham ;
Mana andariki Nanna ishtham
|
|
Radhamma premaye Nanna ;
Nanna premaye Sri Radha ;
Iruvuri premani pondina ;
Jeevulenthayo dhanyulu

|
Sri radha sevaalo munigina ;
Radhasakhi bhava roopamu ;
Tilakinchi anandamu pondu ;
Jeevula bhagyame mahabhagymu
|
Everybody join us on the auspicious day of Nanna's arrival. Nanna is fond of Radhaji; Radhaji is fond of him. Nanna is fond of us; we all are fond of him. Radhaji's love is Nanna; Nanna's love is Radha. The human beings who obtain the love of them both are indeed blessed. One who envisions Radha Sakhi's bhava roopa, immersed in the service of Sri Radha and attains bliss, is indeed fortunate.
