Gopikaa Giitikaa Part-10

(Songs of God Krishna On Cowherd Lady)

37) O Gopabhaama! Seller of butter-milk!

You are boiling in My thoughts always.                   (Chorus)

 

Madness of worldly bonds shall be standard scale,

Measure soul’s love on Me with such practical scale.

 

Gopi didn’t say “butter-curd-milk” in streets of Madhura,

Instead, she cried “Venu Gopa Paala Krishna Datta Murti”.

 

(Gopi was arrested by the soldiers of King Kamsa. Following conversation took place between Gopi and Kamsa.)

 

Kamsa roared furiously “Butter-curd-milk are mine only”,

Gopi told “all these belong to Krishna only in any birth”.

 

(Gopi means butter-will, curd-word and milk-work.)

 

Kamsa shouted “I am the King, all the wealth belongs to me”,

Gopi replied “Krishna is the king of my heart and my wealth”.

 

38) O Gopi! don’t come, if I see you,

I can’t control Myself any more.                      (Chorus)

 

Whenever I see you, My long bond with you of the past births,

Comes to My memory, I will embrace, kiss and can’t leave you.

 

Your family will kill you since everybody mistakes your love as,

Confined to romance only and not sacrifice of all bonds for God.

 

For illegal soul even if all bonds are sacrificed, not justified,

Since soul is not God to prove by lifting up hill, compulsorily.

 

I lifted hill as child before I started testing Gopi by dance,

It is necessity to avoid imitation by false God-men in this.

 

In no other human incarnation this miracle is exhibited,

Since testing of sages is confined to this incarnation only.

 

You are firm that I am the God, others only know Me as God,

Stay in Brunda only, others can’t reach your ultimate stage.

 

39) I told Gopi not to come from Brunda,

I can’t tell My life not to go out now.              (Chorus)

 

All the worlds without you are lifeless bodies,

You are life of My life, My life is ready to fly.

 

Rukmini or Bhaama or other eight wives can’t stop Me,

My soul is ready to fly to see you in the Brundaavanam.

 

No devotee existing in fourteen worlds can stop Me,

My life-bee to live in your foot-lotus is now ready to fly.

 

If I sleep, I get dreams, your love alone is subject of those,

Let My life fly from this body to get eternal peace from you.

 

Ignorant people boycotted you calling you as the prostitute,

This Datta is always with you only, let them boycott Me also!

 

The love of any soul has least depth with roaring waves,

The love of God is very deep and silent without any wave.

 

Don’t come, don’t come, Gopi! if you come, don’t go, don’t go,

If you don’t come only pain, if you come and go My life will fly.

 

40) Bhagavatam is divine nectar of all Vedas,

Character of Gopi is as holy as the God.                  (Chorus)

 

I am Datta in the role of Krishna, the ultimate God,

This firm sage searched Me in several human births.

 

In the divine court God Brahma was asked about holy soul,

He showed down His finger towards holy Gopi on this earth.

 

The sage realized that God, creator, is the only true husband,

And that all souls are parts of creation, females and His wives.

 

The sages also realized about contemporary human incarnation,

Reached Rama and prayed to embrace Him by becoming females.

 

Shri Rama did not agree to this, saying that He is with one wife only,

It was a pretext, truth is that He wanted to test sages born as Gopis.

 

Rama told them to be born as the Gopikas to fulfil their desire,

He was born as this Krishna, sages were born as these Gopikas.

 

When a human being-medium is charged with energetic Datta,

A human incarnation results called as that Rama or this Krishna.

 

Sages didn’t know heart of Rama, in which what was present,

That was to test sages totally in their strength of three ‘eshanas’.

 

(Eshanas are very strong worldly bonds with life partner, issues and wealth.)

 

If this background is known to the sages in the past birth itself,

No sage will fail in test by leakage of question paper in advance.

 

Rama is liked since no miracles and since denied Himself as God,

Krishna is disliked since full miracles and since told Himself as God.

 

People are full of ego and jealousy, happy to see a similar human soul,

Never like a specific soul as God, if everyone is God, mostly welcomed!

 

Several sages failed in My three tests, complained to My mother,

Regarding stealing of butter preserved for their beloved issues.

 

They asked “lot of butter is in your house, why to steal our butter?

I replied in My mind “I stole butter not for My sake, but, to test you”.

 

These failures have also beaten some Gopis for dancing with Me,

The dancing Gopis also gave Me butter secretly in the way to city.

 

Only such few Gopikas, who passed My three tests are eligible,

For final declared salvation from worldly bonds due to My bond.

 

(When salvation or liberation from the three strong worldly bonds is obtained, it is a proof of total salvation form all worldly bonds like capturing king in the war is capturing his kingdom. The salvation from worldly bonds shall not be obtained by any effort or force since it has to be obtained as natural consequence of the overattachment or strong bond to God.)

 

While all slept, only Gopi awoke and she slept while all awoke,

All see world and not God, Yogi is reverse to this, I said in Gita.

 

(Yaa nishaa sarvabhuutaanaam... Gita. ‘All sleeping and awakening’ means not seeing God and seeing the world respectively. ‘Gopi sleeping and awakening’ means not seeing world and seeing God respectively.)

 

Raasakeli’ means enjoying the love of the ultimate God,

Rasa means love of God and keli means enjoying His love.

 

(Raso vai sah ...labdhvaa aanandii bhavati— Veda)

 

(To be continued...)
