JKP Radha Madhav Dham

(A rasik Saint says: O souls of the world!) Always remember Radha Krishna and always sing the virtues and the leelas of Radha Krishna.

Both, Lal and Lali are the ocean of the sweetness of the Divine beauty and They always play in the beautiful kunj of Vrindaban.

They are so beautiful that the beauty of millions of Rati and Kamdev becomes bashful in their presence. So, O souls of the world, always remember Radhey Govind!

Both are the forms of Divine love and the Soul of all the rasik Saints, and Both look like the Couple of beauty and adornment.

They Both have flooded the Braj with the nectar of Divine love and Their leelas. So, O souls of the world, always remember Radhey Govind!

Sankadik paramhansas could not understand the secrets of brahm Krishn, and the Vedas ended up by saying, 'Neti neti'. They couldn't. describe any further.

But, it is the greatness of Braj ras that the Gopis have made the same brahm Krishna dance according to their own choice. So, O souls of the world, always remember Radhey Govind!

The great yogis meditate upon that brahm in their samadhi, and the gyanis declare it as unperceivable and unattached.

But it is the greatness of Braj ras that the same brahm Krishn has become like the collyrium of the eyes of the Gopis (because, they don't perceive anything else but Krishna, all the time). So, O souls of the world! Always remember Radhey Govind.

Both Radha and Krishna, are like chakor and the moon for each other, and They Both lovingly talk to each other with the movement of Their eyes without saying a word.

Shree Kripalu Mahaprabhu Ji says that the loving couple, Radha Krishna, are so great that there is no word to describe Their glory, graciousness, and kindness. So, O souls of the world, always remember Radhey Govind, Radhey Govind, Radhey Govind!

“O Beloved, when I become Yours...

My eyes will unceasingly drink the rays of beauty from Your moon-like face, like the chakor bird (which derives its sustenance from the rays of the moon) and still I will remain unsatiated.

Becoming Yours, I will make You mine and offer up my body, my mind and my very life to Your service alone, for Your pleasure.

I will be unable to contain the blissful intoxication I experience when I receive the gentle, Divine touch of Your hands.

I will dance in the frenzy of joy at every moment singing Your glories.

Shree Kripalu Ji Maharaj says, “I will fulfil all my desires to my heart's content, by taking You in my arms and clasping You to my bosom again and again.”

Live recorded kirtan in January 2019 from Shree Raseshwari Radha Rani Temple of JKP Radha Madhav Dham, Austin, TX.

ओरे मोरे मन, राधिका रमन, निशदिन गुन गन गाये जा I

“O my mind, sing the glories of Radha Krishna day and night.

Every moment keep increasing your devotional feelings, and constantly improve your feelings of love for Radha Krishna.

This life without His love is no life, because He is the 'life' of my soul.

And that love is not the true love, if it is not for the happiness of your most beloved Krishna.

Always desire to meet Shyama Shyam (Radha Krishna) with eyes full of tears of love and longing.

O my mind! Sing the virtues of Krishna and fructify the Divine fruit of your life.

Radha is simple and delicate Sukumari,

The daughter of Vrishbhanu and is the soul-beloved of Krishna.

Even the all-virtuous Krishna always serves His soul Radha like the eternal servant.

To experience and taste the nectar of Vrindaban bliss, always sing Radhey name.

O my mind! Always sing 'Radhey', 'Radhey', 'Radhey'.”

You have to understand and practice three things.

Number one is humility.

Number two is Roopdhyan. 

Number three is chanting the names, qualities and pastimes of Radha Krishn. 

You all practice one of these. Out of these three, you practice one, chanting of Shyama Shyam's names, qualities and pastimes. But you do not practice the other two things. Just chanting the name of God without those two, is like the body without life - a dead body.

The more humble you are, the closer you will get to God. Write this down in golden letters. You all think that we do kirtan but tears do not come. Chanting without tears is not true chanting; it's only a parrot's recital. God gives results of only those actions where the mind is involved. God does not take into account any physical work. So, humility and tolerance come first. They make up the first lesson in the subject of devotion.

There was a Muslim Saint in the Arabian country. He used to beg for alms in front of an idol. People asked him, " Why do you beg in front of an idol that you are hungry and want some bread?" The saint replied, "The reason I do this is so that when I beg in the world and no one offers me any alms, I would not feel bad as I would have practiced it here." So, humbleness is the very first lesson. 

Roopdhyan follows as number two. In your mind, bring God in front of you and then sing the kirtan. The more humble you become, the closer you will get to God. The more Roopdhyan of God you do, the closer you will get to Him and God will also come closer to you. Anyone walking on the spiritual path should think of himself to be below everyone. He should think that everyone else is better than him. One should have such feelings of humility.

Give respect to everyone. Do not expect respect from others. Bring in such humility. Desire to sit behind everyone. We sit in the front thinking - People will see that I am a leader, I am a millionaire. What are you thinking? Do not think like this. Think that you are below everyone. The Vedas declare the Shri Krishna is within everyone. Realize this. Do not have ill- feelings towards others, such as considering some inferior, finding faults in others, and feelings of disrespect or hatred. Otherwise God will be unhappy with you and Guru will be even more sad. The Guru will be sad - I tried so hard and explained so much, still this individual has feelings of attachment and hatred in him. Whether you have attachment or hatred towards the world, whether you have favorable thoughts or unfavorable thoughts, the moment you think of the world, your mind gets polluted and you have to purify your mind. By making the mind even more impure, what Sadhana are you practicing? You are adding even more dirt to the soiled cloth (the mind). You need to wash the soiled cloth in pure water, and pure water means you should attach your mind to God and Guru. These two personalities are pure and will purify the mind. Do not look down on anyone. Someone may be really deplorable, but do not think about his faults. Do not think reprovingly even against some deplorable as it will make your mind impure. He will always remain bad.

Let's say a person is a dacoit, he is vicious. If you think about his wrongdoings, your mind will then be filled with delinquent thoughts; your mind will become more impure. How can you then have the goal of God-realization? 

Hence, do not have any desire for position, appreciation, prestige, fame or the desire for the world to praise you. In other words, do not desire to become a leader. Leave all those feelings. The more humble you become, the dearer you become to God and Guru. Memorize this point. It will help you till God-realization. Otherwise, this Maya is very dangerous. This desire of becoming popular within people around you has caused the downfall of even great ascetics.

"Let people praise me and worship me." This leadership quality is okay in the world since their goal is different. But for the one who is on the spiritual path, if he behaves like a worldly person, then he will deviate from his goal. So practice Roopdhyan with your mind and cry out to God with tears. Crying out to God in the main Sadhana and this will happen only with humility. Without humility, one cannot shed tears. So when you go to sleep, think, "Where all did I become arrogant today? Where all did I desire prestige today? This foolish mind has made me wander in 8.4 million life forms and it's doing the same thing again. Humility, politeness and tolerance are Divine qualities Tulsidas Ji says,”Aangan Kuti chhawaye” (verse) Keep your critic in your courtyard so that he may criticize you every day and you practice not to feel bad about it. Why do you feel bad? "Are you under Maya?" "Yes." "Do you know what Maya does?" "Yes." Lust, anger, greed, jealousy- these are all vices of Maya. Do you have all these vices in you? Be honest! "Yes, I do have these vices." Then? Anyone will criticize you only about these vices. "You are lustful, you are bad tempered, you are greedy, you are a rouge, you are a thug. This is all one can tell you. Isn't he right in saying this? We have all these vices. What else do we do all day and night? Are we saints? Are we like Tulsidas, Soordas, Meera, or Kabir?

"No we are not like them." We have lust, anger, greed and other such vices. If someone humiliates us with these words, He is our well wisher. He is pointing out our vices and asking us to rectify them. So, do not ever have any ill feelings against anyone. And always have humble feelings for yourself. Think- "I am fallen, destitute, sinful. I am not able to shed tears even while chanting God's names. God is omnipresent and is sitting in everyone's heart but I am not able to realize it. I am an atheist.” Bring these humbling feelings and realization again and again. Then see how you progress day by day.

Pride is your biggest enemy; beware of it. Do your Sadhana like this. Then Kripalu will come here again and again without even being invited and serve you. The most important thing is to wipe out the ill feelings you have developed against anyone. If you have developed any ill feelings against someone, go to them, ask for forgiveness and be nice to them. Behave in such a way that he or she feels humbled. This quality should be developed. You have to practice this.

With tears in the eyes, a devotee is saying, “O my Kishori Radhey! Please repair my ruined luck!

O my sweet Mother! You are very kind-hearted. It is sung in all the Vedas and the Puranas.

Whom shall I tell the tale of my distress, and who would listen to me except You? You are the only (loving, caring, and compassionate) Mother of this sorrowful child!

O Radhey! You know the condition of my heart very well, that I never stop doing wrong things!

This crafty, cunning and spoiled kid of Yours is tossed here and there in the world!

I have no true qualities of devotion although I call myself a great knower of the path of bhakti.

O Radhika (Radhey)! Looking into Yourself, please accept me now. (It's too long I have been away from You.)

Also please show me Your Manmohan Krishna once! O my Radhey! I prostrate to Your lotus feet. Please fulfill my desire.

(Whatever I am) I am Your child. Now where else could I go (except You, as You are my only refuge)?

I have no true qualities of devotion although I call myself a great knower of the path of bhakti.

O Radhey! Please fulfill my willful request, and come to me, otherwise this child of Yours may disgrace the mother's good name (by his conduct and people may say, "Hey look to this guy who calls himself a devotee of Radha Krishna and he is so worldly." So, O my Radhey! Please, Grace this child of Yours and show Your loving face).”

A devotee, longing for the love of Radha Rani, says, “O my ever-youthful sweet and loving Radhey! O form of intimate Divine Bliss, my Gracious Radhey! Please look at me with a kind glance of your causeless Grace!

O Radhey! I am a helpless, humble and fallen soul, devoid of devotion and dedication, And You are the boundless Ocean of kindness and Divine love.

O Radhey! Where shall I go and to who shall I tell the tale of my distress, and who would look to this humble and devoid soul except You (as You are my only hope and refuge)?

I am such an ungrateful person (who has overlooked all of Your Grace and kindness and) who is still shamelessly committing sins all the time and is wandering in the world trying to fulfill the desires of his physical senses like a pig enjoying the garbage.

So, O Radhey! Looking to Your unconditional kindness, please forcibly make me Your own. (Only You can do this.) Without You, there is no one who could come to rescue me.

Whether I am good or bad, I am Yours, O Radhey! You are the only one who cares for me.

Please look at me with a kind glance of Your causeless Grace. (Although) I have committed endless sins (still I am Yours. Without You, I see no one in the world who could love me).

O Raseshwari Radhey! Please give me the alms of Gopi bhao (so I can be fortunate enough to be in Your service forever). O Radhey! By any means, please make me Your own, so that …

… with tears of love in my eyes and singing and remembering Your loving virtues day and night, I may completely drown myself in Your love.

O Kishori Radhey! Having received Your Divine love with Your Grace, And satiated in Your loving Bliss, I would then be anonymously wandering in the lanes of Braj...”

In the end, the devotee says, “O Beauty of the Divine beauty, my beloved Radhey! When will that day come that while seeing my Swamini, my eyes will be ceaselessly looking to the ever-new and ever-increasing beauty of my ever-loving Radhey like a chakor."
