Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Krishna was going to Mathura to meet kansa (his maternal uncle) who had earlier tried to Kill Krishna on many occasions but failed. When people of Mathura came to know about the arrival of shri krishna, they gathered on the roads to have a glimpse of their loving Bal gopal. When Krishna was passing from the streets of Mathura, people were spellbound to see his loving face. There were hundreds of young women who had come all prepared, laden with ornaments and wearing their best dresses. They were whishpering ..oh! May Krishna see us and fall in love with us. Krishna was watching them lovingly and his eyes when met with their eyes, gave them trembles of ecstasy. In the crowd also stood one woman who was hunchback with no beauty on the face. She wore simple clothes as she was quite poor. She had also heard of Krishna coming to Mathura and had come prepared to show her love to Krishna by applying sandal-wood paste on his body. Seeing so many beautiful and well decorated noble girls, her heart sank. She was standing hopelessly behind the crowd crying over her bad luck and thinking, " Oh why Krishna will love a woman like me? I am not beautiful I even have a hunch.... amongst all those beauties of Mathura, i am nothing but a piece of shame....Oh my krishna at least see towards me once. " Suddenly she saw Krishna standing before her and asking lovingly " Beloved will you not apply sandalwood paste on my body " She was shocked with surprise and with trembling hands applied fragrant paste on Krishna's forehead and arms. Her eyes were shedding tears... her voice was choked...she could not believe what brought Krishna to a useless woman like her. Krishna smiled and said, " Now I will kiss you as a price for your service " and he held her by face,but due to hunch she could not stand erect. Krishna put his feet over her feet and gave her body a jerk and her hunch vanished. She could not even thank Krishna for his love, and he had gone ....and our heroine stood shocked dumb and crying in SPIRITUAL ECSTASY. ========================================================== What was it that brought Krishna to the hunchback? Let us not worry about our bad karma, nor for the present faults nor for the luck or gods or anything.....let pure and pious love for HIM awaken in our heart...let us cry for HIM.....let us make him the sole purpose of our life and HE will be there !! He will not care for our knowledge of books, nor for the ornaments of our degrees of knowledge nor will he be impressed with the numbers of books we read. He will measure the love and piousness in us and respond. Aum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 8, 2008 Report Share Posted July 8, 2008 Dears Aumji, Ulaganathan and Shantnu. Lord Krishna and hunchback woman incidence is just wonderful Aumji, and with telling narrations of Ulaganathanji and Shantnuji it sums up the glory of love, surrender, devotion - Bhakti! All sadhanas - jnanayoga, karmayoga, rajayoga, tantra and so on - must culminate in love for Him, that is the true wisdom, the Reality. True knowledge(jnana) makes us marvel at the creation and we are wonderstruck, a sign of Bhakti.Total devotion to work(karma) for the excellence in work itself cleans body-mind-intellect complex and the resultant purity takes us to an exalted feeling of joy, again a sign of Bhakti. Deep breathing exercises, body postural adjustments, mental training of focusing and meditation(rajayoga) while opening up the reservoirs of internal treasure ushers in inexplicable peace and tranquility, yet another sign of Bhakti and so on. Our body-mind-intellect created identity of ourselves looks trifle in front of the identity revealed by divine power invoked in us by the sadhanas and willingly that 'lower' self created by body/mind/intellect surrender to the awesome higher self sprung in us. The sweetest rasa/nectar of life is in Bhakti.We are not complete without it! Thanks to you all, With Love, M.S.Thimmappa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let us all tread towards the path of divine love... the love of Gopis from whereever we are AUM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what is it that brings Krishna to Kubja ? was it her past Karma/sadhna or was it her being an innocent and worst woman ? What can bring krishna to us ?

Krishna does not care for the karmas and sadhna... he is moved by depth of our cry for him. Still there is no guarantee that he would remain with us for ever... like gopis he can leave us in between and vanish again... One has to be ready for every thing and anything to get Krishna's love. Krishna snatches all wealth, friends, relatives and lovers of his true bhaktas...as he is not ready to share his love with others Aum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 9, 2008 Report Share Posted July 9, 2008 HARE KRISHAN ,HARE RAM Lord Sri Krishan is everything whatever we can think . If you treat Him like your enemy He would behave with you like an enemy . iF You treat Him like a husband He would treat you as a wife . if you treat Him like a friend He would be with you like a friend . what the AUM Sir has explained beautifully that Lord Sri Krishan keeps us away from relatives,............... because in that case He acts like a father , same as you care for your child. you shout your child, you beat your child , sometimes you keep your child away from yourself , away from TV ,.............. why because of the better future of child . IN THE same way Lord Sri Krishan does with His child too because of our goodness only , because He knows what is the truth and how we would get ....................... HARE KRISHAN ,HARE KRISHAN ,KRISHAN KRISHAN ,HARE AHRE,HARE RAM ,HARE RAM ,RAM RAM,HARE HARE - > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
