Har Har Mahadev dear readers!

how are you guys

Hope you are safe by the grace of Lord Shiva.

Hare Krishna Dear readers! Who does not know about Vrindavan. This place is the symbol of love of Shri Radha Krishna. There are many places to visit here. Every place has its own significance.  I am going to tell, that is Imli Tala i.e. tamarind tree.

Friends! There is a tamarind tree here in Vrindavan, which is believed to be from the time of Lord Krishna till today.  According to some people the original tree i.e. the original tree is now dead.  A new tree has grown in its place which is very old.

Imlitala is the place where Shri Krishna chanted the name of Radha 5500 years ago.

Imlitala is the place where the color of Shri Krishna's body changed from black to fair while Shrimati Radha ji was worrying and remembering him.

Imlitala is the place where Lord Krishna had to live in separation from Radha.

Imlitla is the place where the wishes of the devotees are fulfilled, as well as the special grace of Krishna-Radha ji. It is said that when a true devotee comes here, his heart starts crying, he gets lost in the feelings of God.  And this is the state when there is special grace of Lord Shri Krishna-Radha ji.

Imlitala is the place where Chaitanya Mahaprabhu also came and chanted the name of Radha ji sitting under the tree.

Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu (who is disguised as a devotee of Krishna Himself), used to come here daily during his stay in Braj Dham.  Lord Chaitanya's complexion was golden, but when he meditated here, he became dark like Krishna due to feelings of ecstasy.  The temple here houses the deity of Radha Krishna along with Lord Chaitanya, and is being managed by the Gaudiya Matha.

Inside the temple there are beautiful wall paintings depicting pastimes of Krishna and Lord Chaitanya.  This holy place is on the banks of river Yamuna on Vrindavan Parikrama Marg.

Imlitala is the place where Shrimati Radha ji had cursed this Imlitala i.e. tamarind tree.

Imlitala is the place where Shri Krishna started considering himself as Radha.

Dear readers, this is a very beautiful place and the stories here are very beautiful, so read the post till the end so that you can get complete information and you too can feel the pain of separation from Lord Shri Krishna through this story.

Shri Mati Radharani ji cursing the tamarind tree.

Shri Mati Radharani cursed the copper tree.  One day when she was on her way to meet Krishna, her foot fell on the thick bark of a ripe tamarind fruit and her leg was cut.

He was late to meet Krishna because of his cut leg, so he cursed the tree that its fruits would not ripen, so that they would remain soft and not get hurt again.  Even today the fruits of this tree fall before ripening completely.

Story of Krishna Virah

There is a very beautiful story behind Imli Tala.  It is said that once when Krishna was singing raas with Radha and Gopis in the bansi vat, then suddenly Radha ji disappeared. So Krishna ji says that what happened.  Saddened, leaving Raas, Krishna reached Imli Tala, lost and fantasizing about Radha ji.

Raas broke down. Hundred crore gopis could not understand Krishna's mind even after making many efforts. Krishna ji's condition was very pitiable.  Why not, give me darshan, protect my life. 

Shri Krishna repeatedly calling Radhaji and crying saying that only Radha is in my house, only Radha in the forest, only Radha inside me, only Radha outside me, only Radha  Radha is in front of me, Radha is behind me, wherever I see only Radha.

While lamenting in this way, he got so lost in the name of Radha that the color of his body turned from black to fair.  It seemed as if Maa Radhe had covered him with her body, had embraced him.

Friends! The whole world takes the name of Krishna, worships him, but here Shri Krishna says that - I take the name of Radha, I worship only Radha and I salute Radha.  

Friends, this is such a place where the whole world chants the name of Shri Krishna but Shri Krishna is the name of Radha ji.  Krishna ji says that Radha is in my mind, Radha is in my head, Radha is the only Radha everywhere and then he says, O Radha, please forgive me.

Friends, the whole world apologizes to Shri Krishna, but Shri Krishna apologizes to Radha ji. Drowned in separation, he says when Radha will give me darshan. When will I see you. 

Without you, this world, wealth, life, this entire Niketan is giving me immense sorrow and then thinking that Radha must be missing me, friends, God had his own sorrow but at the same time he felt the sorrow of Mother Radhe.  

I was also worried that how would she be without him, whether she would be fine or not, she must also be worried about me, she must also be thinking about me.

Friends!  There are three stages of separation - memory, inspiration and manifestation and in the separation of Shri Krishna Radha jiWhen he reached the third stage, he started seeing only Radha all around him. 

Then Shri Krishna became more distraught after seeing him and started saying in a very compassionate voice that what is this Radhe, you are in front of me, then why am I lamenting. 

Shri Krishna ji laments so much that he says, Oh! Radhe, what is this condition that today you are in front of me and still you are not talking to me, not coming near me, not hugging me. Why Radhe?

He mourns so much for the separation of Shri Radha, he starts speaking such things in Geet Govindam which no human can understand. This is a very high level of love. Work, the word work, does not mean any desire, lust. The word work is a most sacred name.

The worship of Lord Krishna is done through Gayatri. Kama Gayatri is one such Gayatri Mantra. With the help of which or to say in simple language, by chanting this Gayatri mantra, many sages and sages have taken refuge in Krishna, have attained his feet, 

but the meaning of the word work in this world is that of a man or woman. Meeting of But work is not that, work is a very beautiful, pure thing which can be understood only by those who have taken shelter of the feet of a good Sadguru.

Now right Krishna laments and says, O Anang! Don't make me suffer by knowing me as Chandrashekhar. I am not Shiva, don't hurt me, don't hurt me, this garland you are seeing around my neck, it is not of Bhujang, it is not of Vasuki. 

It is made from the creeper of the Mridal tree. O Anang, O Radhe! This blue color that you are seeing around my neck, this blue color is not of any poison, it is a very beautiful blue lotus garland.

There is no chit bhasma (ashes of pyre) in my body. This is sandalwood, so O Anang, O Radhe, O dear! Don't show anger, don't get angry. Give up your inequality. Retire from here. Don't shoot your arrows.

Friends, this is the only place where Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has also come. Chaitanya Mahaprabhu who visited 84 koshas, ​​but he always used to worship Kama Gayatri under this tamarind tree. 

This is the place where Shri Krishna's complexion changed from black to fair.Friends, who is Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, he is also Shri Krishna because at this place Krishna ji got separated in the spirit of Radha and Chaitanya Mahaprabhu also got separated in the spirit of Radha ji.

This place is the main place of Gaudiya Vaishnavas. When Chaitanya Mahaprabhu came to this place, he was accompanied by a servant. Whose name was Balabhadra Bhattacharya. 

A Rajput also took refuge with Chaitanya Mahaprabhu whose name was Krishna Das who lived on the other side of the Yamuna. Once upon a time, some people came and told Mahaprabhu that Lord, we have seen Krishna dancing on Kaliya Nag in Yamuna.

When Mahaprabhu's servant (Balbhadra Bhattacharya) heard this, he said that Lord, I will also go to seeHearing this, Mahaprabhu slapped him lovingly and said, "You fool, he is not Krishna."  Krishna cannot give darshan so easily in Kalyug.  These people have got some misunderstanding. 

The next morning some educated people came, they said that O Mahaprabhu, we went to the bank of Yamuna at 4 in the morning and saw some fishermen sitting in their boat catching fish and when the wave of Yamuna comes, their boat  It starts moving, which looks as if Shri Krishna is dancing on Kaliya Nag.

After listening to this, Mahaprabhu taught him, he said, brother! Krishna does not give such darshan to anyone in Kalyug, it was in Dwapar when Lord Shri Krishna used to give darshan. In Kalyug, the name of God is published in the form of Sri Vigraha of God. That's why they don't get involved in anyone's words just like that.

Mahaprabhu explains further that brother! This place is actually the place of wealth of separation of a seeker, the more separation he has, the more he moves forward in bhajan. If the sense of separation is not growing inside your heart, then your worship is useless. Your bhajan is of no use, it is absolutely zero, it is zero.

Friends, it is a belief of this place that when a seeker comes here, a fire of separation ignites inside him, he can feel that separation like Shri Krishna in Radha's separation.

Lord Shri Krishna while lamenting further says that O Radhe! Today, wearing a crooked brow creeper, why have you worn the face of Rakta Padam, that is, today Radha ji is angry, Krishna ji is very angry with her brows. watching from Radha ji's color has become red like blood, while Radha ji is hot Kanchal. Krishna is scared seeing this. It is said that Radha has left after agreeing with me.

Friends, it is a very compassionate scene that Krishna ji is in separation from Radha and Radha ji is also in separation from Krishna.

Here Chaitanya Prabhu tells that humans cannot see Vrindavan with their own eyes. Man can know the mystery of Vrindavan, the abode here only through the eyes of saints and by their grace. 

Even Brahma himself could not know the secret of Vrindavan. Because inside Vrindavan, unrighteousness is religion, truth is truth, incest is conduct, woman is man and man is woman. Now who will understand this, that's why Mahaprabhu told -

unrighteousness is religion

Unrighteousness is religion means that first Krishna called all the gopis by playing his flute. When she comes, he tells her that why did you all come here. You should serve your husbands, so you go to your respective homes. 

Here Krishna taught religion, but who would understand it. He gave the same education to the twin wives. They said that your husband is a Brahmin, a sage, go back. So the twin wives obeyed Krishna and she went back. But the gopis did not go back. They did not obey his orders.

Did the gopis love krishna 

Chaitanya Mahaprabhu says that krishna is a love, such a state of love when one ignores Krishna. That is, when someone understands the words of their heart, they feel very good and the Gopis used to understand Krishna's words, their heart very well. That's why when the gopis refused to obey Krishna, they felt very happy. It is said that when Gopis abuse Krishna, they like it more than the praise of the Vedas.

Friends! This is Vrindavan Dham where gopis are abusing Krishna or praising him, no one will know this. This is a line of praise inside the Gopi Geet, Tava Kathamritam, Tatpa Jeevanam. 

Now what does this line represent. Is this praise or condemnation? Now who will understand this because some Gopis are praising and some Gopis are condemning Krishna, that is, abusing him, condemning him, scolding him and blaming him.

She tells Krishna that your stories are like dead because if we are in your separation, then your stories are not nectar for us. It is like dead. This separation of ours is like a fire. These stories of yours in it do not calm the fire but increase it further.

We have heard that everything is auspicious by listening to your stories, but we have experienced it. Friends, the separation of Gopis is there, but the separation of Radha ji, how is it, it is very compassionate. Radha ji tells Krishna that I have kept that separation towards you in my heart. 

If even a single spark of that separation comes out of my heart, then this infinite universe, all of it will be burnt to ashes. Such is the intense separation. Told whether it is poison or nectar, no one can understand it. That is very elevated nectar.

That's why it is said that in this Vrindavan Dham, yes means no and no means yes. Unrighteousness is religion, so there Gopia says that you called us before with your bansari and now you are teaching us about religion that go serve your husband. Gopis say that it is only your tongue that is preaching us religion, the rest of your senses are motivating us to do unrighteousness.

Your eyes are saying something else. Your gesture is like calling us for the raas.

Your every heart is thrilled to see the Gopis in this deserted forest. And we have heard that the one who is prevalent, is in majority, people respect him only. 

The religion preached by Brahma ji has been given through four mouths and the religion preached by your flute has been given through eight mouths. Means the eight holes in it. So whose words will we listen to, your flute or Brahma ji.

So look, we will listen to your flute with eight holes only because your flute has called us here and it is motivating us to walk on this path. It is as if your flute has taken an oath in this world that I cannot see any Kulvati woman, that is why she has called us here today. That's why it was said that unrighteousness is religion.

Untruth is the truth.

In this Vrindavan abode, untruth is truth because here- Gopis say at their home that they are going to worship the sun, but on this pretext they go to meet Shri Krishna. 

Krishna tells his mother that he did not eat soil but eats soil. So brother, this abode is like this, no one can understand it. Only those can understand them who have taken shelter of the feet of Radhe ji and his devotees.

Incest is ethics.

Gopis are serving their husbands, feeding children, feeding milk, serving their mother-in-law and father-in-law, doing household chores, but as soon as they hear the sound of Krishna's flute, they all stop. She leaves and runs to him. On this, Krishna says that this is incest - leaving the son and coming back leaving the husband. So gopis say no, this is achar.

Woman is man and man is woman.

When Krishna is in separation while thinking of Radha ji, when he comes completely in the spirit of Radha, he starts saying Ha Radhe, Ha Radhe instead of Ha Krishna, Ha Krishna. 

They start considering themselves as Radha. While he is Krishna. Krishna is in separation from Krishna and says that without Krishna my heart is breaking, 

what should I do, where should I go, how can I find my Krishna, O Murli Vadan, where should I find you. Friends! If you imagine what a strange scene this is. That Krishna is looking for Krishna.

Just like that dear readers! Radha ji also once comes in separation from Krishna ji. She grows so much in Krishna's separation, she gets so lost in his feelings that she starts considering herself Krishna. She takes Murli in her hand and wears a crown on her head. Assuming herself to be Krishna, Radha starts writing letters to Radha. 

She writes that O Radhe! Even she could not write Radhe completely and passes that letter to Krishna through the hands of her friends. Friends! What is written in that letter, nothing, yet when Krishna reads that letter, he starts lamenting, cries a lot and while crying, he also writes a letter to Radha and sends it. 

And what was written in that letter friends! Nothing but our name Krishna. Who will understand it now? That's why it was told that this is the name of love. The one who is a rasik devotee here, who is a loving devotee, only they can enter it, they can understand it.

When the sun rises in the morning, the moon goes away, but here in Vrindavan, when the sun rises, millions and millions of moons shine.  That the faces of all the Gopis have become elated. As if all the Gopis have blossomed in the form of a full moon. 

That is why it has been said that even Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh could not understand the glory of Vrindavan Dham, even the big giants  If we can't understand then what will we ordinary human beings understand. 

Only those who take shelter of the devotees of this place will understand it. Ashraya means by being with him, we can understand the glory of Shri Radhakrishna, his pastimes and his love with devotion. Do not get lost in the world. 

So dear readers! This was today's wonderful story of Karunamai Lord Shri Krishna's separation. Hope you liked it.  We will meet again with such an interesting story in world knowledge. Till then take care of yourself, be happy, keep smiling, keep smiling and remember the Lord.

Thank you
