On the occasion of Radhastami, I wish each and every devotee of Radha-Madhav, a very Happy and Prosperous Radhastami.
And on this day ,I present a poem( in hindi and braj) which I want to humbly offer to Radha-Damodara.
Manmohan murli mein madhu bhar,
Vrindavan bhatkat le Radha ka naam.
O Giridhari! O Banvari! Bhatkat kyun aviram.
Nayan Neer bhar, jharat hain jhar jhar.
Shyam bolat hain mridu jharat madhu.
Radha kit hain bol Subala.
Mharo man hain vyakul.
Kaha gayi braj ki bala?
Baje run-jhun swar.

We can also become one of them, eternally liberated. But we are not admitted in the spiritual kingdom unless we have given up this false sense of lording it over the material nature. Here, the conditioned souls, everyone is trying to become the lord, imitating. Everyone is trying. But there is clash. You are trying to become lord, I am trying to become lord. Therefore there is clash. And in the spiritual world the Lord is one and there is no competition of lording it over. Therefore in the spiri

Actually, the enjoyment is in my mind. That is not enjoyment. That is not enjoyment. Real enjoyment is when I am free from this embodiment of five elements, gross elements, and three subtle elements.
