An Untold Story!

HI Guys..,

It has been my dream to post this blog here for the past 3 to 4 months. You will realize the reason as you keep reading the blog as to why I was skeptical all this while. Well, we generally talk about the stories of Krishna/Hari right? Or we do write poems on him...but this blog of mine is quite different. We all have so many fantasies about our Krishna, don't we? Like sometimes when we hear few stories about him (esp kothai, meera, Radha such kind of devotees) we end-up thinking, "how nice it would have been if I was born like her!!!" I am generally a very dreamy person! I don't know...I keep dreaming many things about Hari...I keep dreaming about our union almost everyday. I write many things which I dreamt or dream (I do not post ALL of them here).....but this story which I have posted below(is one of my beautiful dreams-i had written it long back) Somehow just thought of sharing it with you guys....

Please go many thousand years back..........*** Am Chandrika here*** Its okay....chill !!! Atleast let me have fun dreaming....let me stay satisfied with my dreams on Hari....lol!

                             ***********************************************
Chandrika was a beautiful young girl who was brought-up listening to many amazing stories of Lord Sri hari.
She lived in a small yet beautiful village which was close to Dwaraka. She had immense devotion on Sri hari.
She kept talking about Hari all the time to her friends & her family. Her family was as well devoted to Lord Vishnu.
        Her great grand father had long back built a temple for lord Hari in her village. It was indeed a beautiful temple in which the form of hari was so majestic and charming.
He was in his "Anantha sayanam" rupam. There was as well a sanctum for Lakshmi matha.
She visited the temple every morning & evening. She had an idol of hari in her room and always kept talking to Hari. She sang, danced, laughed, cried, fought, blushed in the thoughts of Hari.
One early morning she was drawing kolam(decorative designs) in front of her house while her mom was busy in the kitchen & her dad was engrossed in his pooja.
Chandrika sang Hari kirtan as she drew the kolam with her delicate fingers.
All of a sudden she got so excited when she heard a group of people singing "Bolo Narayana narayana Hari hari....Swami narayana narayana hari hari" The song pierced her heart!
That Saturday morning the sadhus were performing their nagara sankeerthanam (ppl sing the praises of hari in various streets in groups with all kinds of musical instruments while they walk and then go to temple to take darshan)
Chandrika couldn't just resist the Hari naamam(names of  Lord Hari).....She was in ecstasy the moment she heard the bhajans...she forgot everything including herself.
She dropped her small vessel down in which she had the rangoli powder and she ran to join the group.., along with them she danced & sang the Hari kirtan.
Chandrika joined the group even forgetting to inform her parents.
After a while her mom came outside to feed the cattle and was astonished at the unfinished rangoli and her daughter was missing too.
She ran in the streets calling out to Hari searching for her young & beautiful daughter.
One of the neighbours informed her mom about the incident that happened a while ago which relieved her from pain & anxiety.
Chandrika returned home after couple of hours once the bhajans & darshan was over.
She was really fretting about getting back home. As she imagined she was totally yelled at for leaving the home without any information.
She went to her room and cried to hari.
Such incidents took place every now & then. Few of her neighbours called her crazy. Chandrika never bothered about anything. She was always immersed in hari's thoughts.
Infact her friends used to tease her saying, "Hey.., this isn't just bakthi!!!! Looks like you are in love with Hari!!!!
We can understand just by looking at your thirsty eyes when u talk about him" & another friend said, "No NO We understand about it the moment your face brightens-up when we take Hari's name heheee"
Her dear friend Keerthi teasingly said, " haaan I knew the other day when you ran behind the ther(chariot) calling out Hari hari hariiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii........you are in LOVE!!!"
Chandrika blushed and her friends at once said, "YOU are CRAZYYYYYYY!!!!! He is GOD!!! How can u have feelings for him!! better change yourself chandri...its no good!"
Chandrika brushed away all the so-called advises given by her friends. She came to her room. saw her hari's idol, blushed, she couldn't even lift her face up and look at him.....her cheeks turned out to be pink.
Her heart was over-flowing with passion for Hari. She coudln't resist that moment. She ran to the door and locked it.
She walked slowly towards her Hari's idiol, took him in her arms, hugged him and kissed him all night.
Her thirst was not quenched, her bottled-up feelings was so much that she couldn't control herself..all her passionate emotions burst into tears.
She suffered the pain of separation from Hari. She couldn't bear it...She cried all night!
Likewise so many many sleepless & merciless harsh nights passed-by....She became impatient day by day and became very desperate to unite with Hari.
one morning when she went to the temple, she kept fighting with Hari...one old lady who passed by enquired, "Why are you crying so much dear?"
Chandrika- "Sorry ma...you won't understand:-(("
The old lady- "No pls tell me dear what it is....or show me your palms! Am a palm reader, I can tell you remedies for your problems whatever it may be!"
Chandrika- "Pls leave me alone ma!!! I have nothing to share with you....when the conserned person himself doesn't care about me why on earth would u care for me???!!!!!!!"
Old lady forcefully dragged her arm and read out the beautiful lines in her palm. She was amazed!!!!!!!! "WOW!!!!!! I have never seen such a lucky palm before ever in my life.
It says here that You will be married to the ultimate lord who is the king of all three worlds!!!!!! WOW WOW WOW......U r the luckiest!"
Chandrika's happiness knew no bounds....."WHATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT""" She cried out! She immediately just grabbed the old lady and hugged her tightly crying & kissing her everywhere possible.
 Chandrika took the blessings of that old lady who told her that any day Hari would come & ask for her hand.
Chandrika walked rather jumped back to home with so much of joy.....At the entrance of her small home, she saw a grand chariot with horses parked. She slowly peeped inside not knowing if it was right to enter.
Lakshmanan-her baiya(brother) came out and took her in.
Lakshmana introduced Chandrika to the guests who were on their way to Dwaraka all the way from Mathurapuri.  
Lakshmana said, "Chandri say namaste to Krishna ji & Balaram ji. They were in search of a small place to freshen-up and to give rest to their horses as their horses were tired from running all the way.
They asked me for such a place to rest and I brought them here to our home trusting that U & amma can prepare a nice & delicious lunch for these gentlemen who are on their way to Dwaraka"
Chandrika lifted her face up to say "namaste" respectfully to the guests and at once caught the glimpse of the dark & handsome guy she has ever seen or imagined. Her eyes widened, her heart skipped a beat, it was as though she froze for a second when she saw him.......He winked at her with a teasing smile, at once she turned her face down......She was shocked!!!!

Infact she was upset with her baiya for bringing home such strangers. She joined her mom in the kitchen and they cooked a delicious meal for their dear guests.
Mom, "Chandrika, pls help me in serving them!"
Chandrika, "MAAAA....Pls don't force me.....You serve the lunch & don't call me out AT ALL!!! PLZZZZZZ ma I beg you!"
Her mom frowned at her & continued pleasing their guests. Chandrika kept whispering in the kitchen...."Off-late lakshmana is loosing his senses!! How can he trust such strangers, bring them home & offer them feast!!!!!!how dare that guy winks at me!!!! Haaaan was sooooooooooooooooooooo handsome!!!!!!!!! sheeeeesh am I crazy to call him handsome! His eyes was filled with love for me though!!!! Hmmmmmmmm Little does he know that I belong ONLY TO LORD SRI HARI"
Very soon the feast was over and after some time Krishna & balarama were all set to take-off to Dwaraka. Chandrika thought to herself, " haaaan finally the flirt is leaving!!! What a relief!" suddenly a thunder gave shivers to chandrika and in no seconds it was POURINGGGGGGGG heavily!
Lakshmana & Chandrika's dad forced the guets to stay back that night and brought them in.
"Ohhhhh NOOOOOO!!!!! I should have stayed back in the temple itself today.... Sigh!!!" thought Chandrika though she was secretly excited in her heart. She din't know why though. She was forcing her heart not to feel excited. She was forcing her heart to stop thinking about that dark & handsome guy....." Ya well! Good luck to her!!!!

Wow!!! Infact we think we'll go & grab him....but actually we might be so shocked and freeze for several mins until he unfreezes us hahahahahaha.......What a goal to have na in life!!! Sounds crazy sometimes though!!!!!

Pain of seperation!!!!

How beautiful is this pain!!!

What would I do without this pain??

Today I went to see my Hari (in T Nagar temple)… Only weekly once do I get to see him these days. But no complains….alarming?? I will explain… (atleast try)…

Meeting him is such a BIG deal!!!! I can’t even explain the hurdles completely…. We stay very far away from T Nagar…It takes about 1 to 1 & half hours to get to the temple by auto. I can’t go to the temple when I am on my way to office as the office cab won’t stop in between for personal reasons the same way I get back home past mid-night at times…So I never get a chance to meet him at all. So whenever I go to the City for some reason, I club it along with going to the temple. Like if I go to Perambur (my mom’s place). I don’t take a direct bus to Perambur. I go via T nagar and again while returning back I make a point to meet him. The funniest part would be whenever I go & see him; I have a pile of bags in my hand (dresses to stay at my mom’s place or some crap)… He laughs at me for that!!

Initially I used to be very open with my husband & in-laws that am going to the temple. It became such an issue that every time they used to say, “Perumal is here 5 mins away(there is a temple nearby)….why do you have to travel all the way to T nagar & get back all the way down just to see him??” …..I tried my best explaining…then slowly my husband started saying, “Okay….You always look for an opportunity to go to Tnagar….temple!! I don’t know why!!”  My relationship with Hari remains very very personal & secret (as everyone’s I guess except DP (ohhh Dad-daughter hehe).  I don't want to hurt anyone or embarass anyone by acting weird....It is better that certain things remain a secret! However, I started going to a bhajan class very recently wherein I get to learn Hari Kirtan from a wonderful lady….On every Wednesdays I have my classes…Am able to attend the class as my shift commences late in the afternoon. Hence every Wednesday, I go and see him…..:-) It’s a secret meeting though……I have no choice!!:-( Ppl think it’s weird to go to temple everyday….what am I supposed to do? Its weird to cry in front of an idol!!!!!!! Its weird to sing or chant! Its weird to Love the lord even as a friend!!! One is allowed to go to temple whenever one is troubled in life.. do namaskaram, perform arthi, have theertham, do archana but NOTHING more than that…….:-((( But its not weird to be a greatest FAN of actors/actresses and perform milk abishekam for pictures of men/women….and celebrate the meaningless songs sung in the praises of them!!!!! Now I don’t understand the meaning of “weird”………. J Maybe my (our) dictionary is different!

                         

                             However getting back to the pain of separation, Today when I met him…….I just cried & cried & cried as though having lost someone….. Everytime when I see him, It is such a wonderful feeling. I can’t go & hug him. So I place the thulasi garland close to my heart….hug the thulsi garland, kiss the garland & pass it on to him……I secretly place the garland in my chest actually end-up crushing the garland a bit pressing against my chest……then when I give it to the poojari, the garland would be so warm due to the body heat (hehe) Hot garlands for perumal hehehehe J….In T Nagar temple, you can actually come a little behind after his darshan and have a complete darshan of him even for half hr or more than that….the Q would be moving as usual you wouldn’t be disturbing the floating crowd but you can just get back to the prayer hall and take his complete darshan & no one would stop you. It is such a bliss!  Everytime.. I talk to him within my heart, cry, laugh & even feel very very very shy…..esp when I had imagined him very intimately in my heart the prior night…..I won’t even be able to look at him upfront because I know HE KNOWS EVERY LITTLE DETAIL…sometimes I really wish I could hide certain things from him :-( maybe its a girl thing!….then when I have to leave, I tell him when I’ll be meeting him next. I tell him any important updates if any…..everything you know….pretty much like meeting a boyfriend in a particular secret place. But every time when I say “Bye Ummah” I cry like anything……the pain of separation would be so unbearable! But you know I love thatJ whenever I don’t have that pain….I keep begging him to give that pain!!!!!!! The pain connects you with him! The pain ensures that he’ll COME one day!!!! Ya see… HE loves me (sorry ..us)….How long can he hide himself behind the screen letting us burn in the fire of pain? He will come!!!!

This pain of separation from him burns like fire sometimes and can’t be cooled by rivers of tears…..ONLY the nectar of his lips can cure the wound…….He is Danvantri ( Doctor for ALL)….How can he not cure his beloved ones from disease of separation? This soul can’t & won’t enter the gates of Vaikuntham unless He hugs me tightly in Bhoolokam. He only says in BG that, “the soul takes up different bodies according to one’s desire in the present life!!!!!” & as long as one has any kind of intense desire, the soul keeps taking different bodies to fulfill the desires (that’s karma)…… Okay maybe He won’t come in this birth……..FINE!!!! let him not!!!! This soul would take up another body and cry for him……may be he won’t come at that time again……okay am fine!!!!!! But until this desire is quenched this soul is going to take up N number of births and CRY CRY CRY CRY for him……burn in desire for him……………ok after 100 janmas or above…….atleast then HE would feel like coming in person right????????? Let him come……….I do NOT aspire for Moksha or anything until then…………………Let him come!!!!!! Whether it takes several yugas….or several births…..I just want HIM! I believe strongly whatever he says in BG!!!!!! The oceans might melt…..the mountains might be broken to pieces but HIS WORDS won’t go in vain!!!!!!!!!! I will wait for him………………………………………………………I love this pain! I love burning in desire for him for I know the outcome of all the wound in my heart………………..there is cure! Every day I think about that cure for my disease of love….this is a disease of thirst!……………He cares for this soul like for every soul…….That is true…..hence HE can’t dust me away from his heart, can he? He can’t shut his eyes  & laugh!!!!! can he????

This thirst can be quenched ONLY by him……..He knows that…otherwise why would someone call him “Antharyami”!!!!!!

Okay………..thought of just saying that the pain is beautiful…………….forgive me for any errors in this blog.....just vented-out things form my heart...

Kanha ke geet Bhajan

I have been away for a really long while and no, simply no, reasons can justify my separation( atleast neglectfulness)of dearest Krishna. I have finally composed a bhajan with very incomplex lyrics which jump straight into getting the literal point across.One or two lines are stolen from somewhere (what could I do; it fit so impeccably in the tune!?!). This bhajan however, is not too fancy as is conventional with my other ones because this time around, I was trying to sing to Krishna exactly what my mind and heart spoke, and it spoke this," Everything about Kanha is sweet, because He, himself is so sweet!"

Here it goes . . .

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Kanha ke geet madhuram hai
Kanha svayam madhuram hai,
Nainon mein raho mere sada
Mann be baso, Oh sanwara!
Kanha ke geet . . .

Kya jaanu kabse juda janmo ka yeh bandhan,
Prem se joda hai tujhse preet ka daman.
Hai nahi jeevan mein tere bin koi umang,
Hoth kehna paaye par, kehe raha hai mann
Kanha Kanha...Mere Kanha!!
Kanha ka prem madhuram hai
Kanha svayam madhuram hai

Main teri sar-ankhon par sada rahi, Giridhar
Kya karu bayyaan teri daya ka sagar?
Chhod kar jawoo tujhe toh kaha rahungi?
Kanha ke sharan bin marjawungi.
Kanha Kanha...Mere Kanha!!
Kanha ka sang madhuram hai
Kanha svayam madhuram hai

Krishna Responds Very Quickly Sometimes!

Recently, Krishna mercifully answered one of my prayers and I wanted to share that with you all :)

2 weeks ago, I was on my way to work when I remembered Krishna, which inspired my heart to utter a little prayer. I prayed, "Krishna, thank You for this beautiful day. Help me, Kanha, to go through this day working to please You, and in full surrender to You. Be merciful to me, Oh Gopinath, and help me to remember You just a little bit today. Even if I remember You once throughout the day, I will consider myself lucky."

And that was it. I reached my office and started doing my work. At about 1 PM, my friend called me to have lunch with her. I wasn't going to go meet her as someone else had invited me, but I had ditched her for lunch the previous day so thought I should meet her for lunch. Then when I met her, I found out she was fasting. I asked her why and she said it was to worship Shiva. Then we started talking about Shiva and I told her how I loved Shiva, especially in his form as Nataraja. I then explained to her how Shiva is the greatest Vaishnava and I explained a little bit about Krishna and the Bhagavad Gita to her. I narrated the lila about Krishna's birth and showed her the most significant verse in the Bhagavad Gita:

"Always think of Me and become My devotee. Worship Me and offer your homage unto Me. Thus you will come to Me without fail. I promise you this because you are My very dear friend." - Bhagavad Gita, 18.65

She seemed interested in hearing about the lilas and I was having a lot of fun talking to her about Krishna and spreading some of His wisdom. A lot of time passed simply speaking about Krishna and our lunch break ended up taking up more time than we are allowed.

Later on, when thinking about how awesome it was to speak to someone about Krishna and preach a little, I realized what Krishna had done: He had answered my morning prayer. Not only had He mercifully let me remember Him 'just a little bit' like I had asked, He also let me spend about an hour speaking about His glories to someone who didn't know much about Him. He mercifully allowed me to do a little preaching for Him. The whole day went wonderfully with me receiving lots of good news: I got complimented at work, my friend got a promotion, my other friend got a bonus... that whole day was filled with mercy and grace!

All of this brings me back to what a devoted Christian had once told my friend, "If you need something from God, just ask." This is so true! The first thing you need to have is desire. From that desire comes determination, so it was very important to have that desire. Then you must have the willingness to surrender to God's will, and realize that no one but God can truly fulfill your wishes, as He is our only provider. It is ideal for devotees to not ask for material things, but it is also ideal that if we ever have any urgent material needs, we should turn to Krishna and Krishna only. Remember that even material needs become spiritual ones when used in service of Krishna. So either need Krishna or need something for Krishna - that will become a perfect desire!

The most important thing to realize is that sometimes, God answers our prayers in the way we ask. Sometimes, God answers our prayers by not answering them. In whichever way He chooses to answer them, know that it is what is best for us.

"When we get what we want, that is Hari Kripa [Hari's Mercy], when we don't get what we want, that is Hari Iccha [Hari's Will]"

hope u all liked it! :)

Shri Krishna Sharanam Mamah!

Qualities of Hari

Now this is a very challenging topic I have given myself as no one can complete his/her narration on this topic.
I so wanted to write here since couple of weeks but not very spontaneous as Tanvi(in writing bhajans), like ILWK(in poems) & like DP(in analyzing Hari).
Me being incompetent never stops me from writing about HIM because I always believe that HE accepts any scribbling with great compassion. Like how a mom appreciates a child's poor drawing of a green crow("so called crow"!!).

This morning I was talking to a devotee friend about his great qualities...so many things came up in that conversation which induced me to write about it.

I do not know where to start now....but shall just point-down whatever I feel about OUR sweet Sri Hari.

~ Lord Sri Hari is very approachable & down to earth

There are no standard rules as to one should DO this and DO that to please Hari. Even anger pleases him!! Am amazed at that very fact because not everyone can accept anger as much as they accept Love. For instance, King Kamsa constantly had wrath on him and all that Kamsa wanted to do was to defeat HIM. Hari reciprocated with Kamsa by fighting with him and ofcourse slayed him for good and we all know that Kamsa's soul did not enter the gate of hell but on the other hand attained the perfection of great yogis. Now tell me ...what does not please our lord Vishnu? He reciprocates with his devotees the way the devotees want him..Radha & Gopikas had deep desire for him and attained HIM out of that desire(he reciprocated with them according to their will out of love & compassion for them)..same way he reciprocates by fighting if that is what his devotees(like Kamsa & Ravana) want but every soul attains him! That is his mercy...Even in Srimad Bhagavatham the same is confirmed that "if one constantly have intense love, desire, lust, anger, devotion or anything on Hari, they attain HIM"

How approachable he is!!! Anything & everything is right for him...:-)) How blindly he submits himself to his devotees!! Are there any rules here with Hari?? Is there any difference in his eyes?? Love or anger, dirty or clean, Sword or kiss, pushing him away out of anger or grabbing him out of greedy love, Reciting vedam or fighting with him out of love, anything & everything HE accepts. Every emotion directed unto him is one for him...& everyone are equal in front of him. If one does not devote himself to Hari, it doesn't mean that He does not belong to Hari...He might turn-out to be a great devotee in future.....sometimes when we see ppl around us with less devotion, at times we might end-up thinking, "why r they wasting their time like this running behind false pleasure!!!??" you know Hari might laugh looking at that false pride of one's devotion which is nothing but Hari' s blessings. We end-up taking pride for which we are not the actual owners....:-(( after such horrible stages, I learned to think, "even if one pushes away hari, he is gonna grab Hari in near future(in this janma or any other)" similarly we would have too been in an illusion & would have ran behind material pleasure(which we still do by the way) in our previous births...so now who is a great devotee and who is not??? Everyone are equal to HARI... even ppl who say, "don't think of HARI" end-up thinking and uttering names of HARI- knowingly or unknowingly--and the best part is that Hari sees no difference and accepts any thought directed to him....How amazing can he be!!! He is approachable to anyone and everyone...:-)) As rivers attain the Ocean, every soul at one point or the other attains HARI (the super-soul) who resides in everyone.  

   Gopikas were so intoxicated with love for him that they forgot about their homes and came running to him...Few Gopikas were married but had to lie to their husbands in order to meet him...many gopikas' meetings with Krishna was a very secret affair. Lalitha sakhi(supposed to be a very intimate friend of Krishna & Radha) used to arrange for secret meetings of Krishna and his lovers! Now where are rules???? It is always devotion & love for him that matters.

**** One can compromise ANYTHING for Krishna but one shouldn't compromise KRISHNA for anything**** (this is what my very old devotee friend keeps telling often) I really admire this fact and thought I should have it shared here even if it is deviated from what we are discussing about.... sometimes situation can be very challenging...you never know what is right & what is wrong...At times things that appear to be wrong in the eyes of dharma when done for Hari(in pure devotion) becomes flowers in his lotus feet!

Meera disobeyed her in-laws due to her devotion for Vishnu. She was so tormented by her family who insisted her not to worship Hari...at one stage she couldn't put-up with the challenges she had to go through ...so Meera wrote a letter to Goswami Thulsidas-a great devotee of Sri Hari, & Thulsidas responded saying, " those who do not hold Rama and
sita ...dear,
shun them as your dire enemies,
howsoever closely related.
prahlada defied his father, vibhishna
deserted his brother and bharta forsook
his mother.
king bali disowned his perceptor
and the gopis left their husbands inorder
order to meet the lord , and the behaviour of them
all was a source of happiness and blessing to the
world at large .
it is in relation to god alone that all kith and kin are worthy of love.
what is the good of the eye-salve
that only serves to make one blind!.
Take up the hint : no more can i say
he is in every way a noble friend,
worthy of your adoration and dearer
to you than your life..."

Had Meera abandoned her family for a material wealth, it would have been a sinful act or acting deviated from dharma..but she did it FOR HARI out of her love for Hari and which is why we all still talk about her. 

Yes when situation demands, one should compromise anything for HIM as HE is valued more than LIFE... and anything done on that pure note to please Hari, he accepts with a broad & compassionate smile.
He lays rules as to how perfectly one should live on earth to attain him but Hari never lays rules for devotion & love which is why even ppl who had wrath on him attained him the same way as yogis attained him. Lust, anger, love...enemity all means the same to him as long as one constantly remembers him. He is so unbelievably approachable, down to earth & friendly that he accepts everything done by his devotees.

In BG he says, " I accept even a drop of water or a leaf offered with love to me" How kind he is! .....

Am so amazed how he could be so down to earth.....!!  The reason why I keep writing about the same fact many times is that I just want to convey that HARI IS ATTAINABLE!  I know .....all of us know that.. Its not a hot news! but when I really miss him, so many devotees have said this to me and immediately there is this rushed feeling in my heart ..."YES I will reach him one day...He will not forget me and leave me for he is my life! & without him am nothing" 

Its only fair to share the fact that "Hari is certainly attainable" even if we all know about it...it is always great to say this, write this, read it..."Hari is attainable!"

****************************************************

First I thought of listing a lot of qualities of Hari but then just discussing one quality of Hari alone made this blog a lengthy one...so more in next (ONLY with his grace) as we are heading towards margazhi..

Okay now I shall better get going to office....Many around me keep cursing my odd shift timings but it has worked out to be best for me as somehow he blesses me to talk and write about him...I always cry and fight for that...as I don't trust my devotion...I only trust on HIS seducing skills:-)) Everything is ONLY because he attracts us....otherwise how on earth can we have this bliss?!

May Hari always keep us with him ....well & safely bound in LOVE!

****************************************************

Tanvi- Pls join us back yaar! Do not enjoy HIS company in seclusion excluding us....:-(( Join us back plsZZZZ:-)
