TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.

The ultimate welfare of the entire world happens because of the mere resolution of GOD. GOD does not need to do anything by Himself because the welfare of everyone happens automatically just at the resolution of GOD. Only by the mere gesture of the eyebrows of GOD, the ultimate welfare of the creatures and the world is done. Only GOD has the ability to do the welfare of the whole world. GOD just needs to make a resolution to use His capability. GOD is the ultimate benefactor of the world and is always ready for the welfare of the world.

Therefore, whoever wants his welfare needs to connect himself to GOD by devotion.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
  1. For our welfare, we must keep ourselves connected to GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.

When GOD played the flute to call Gopis in Shri Raas then all Gopis came running to meet GOD. When GOD saw that all Gopis had come very near to Him then to fascinate them He started speaking His sweet words. GOD Shri Shukdevji says that GOD is the best speaker among all the speakers of past, future and present time. No one else has such oratory like GOD. The voice of GOD fascinates the creature by its magic.

GOD fascinates the creatures with His every behavior.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.

Gopis love towards GOD is an ideal. It is very difficult to understand their love for GOD. They have such a tremendous love for GOD that we cannot even imagine, then to express it in words is just impossible. GOD Shri Shukdevji says that the Gopis had abandoned all their wishes for their beloved GOD. They rejected all worldly pleasures for GOD. They had great affection and ultimate love towards GOD. GOD was everything for the Gopis. They were living only for GOD.

The true heights of love towards GOD were touched by the Gopis, therefore, the Gopis are the ideals of GOD's love.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
  1. We must take our love for GOD to a great height.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Gopis told the above words to GOD.

When Gopis came for Shri Raas after listening to the flute played by GOD then firstly GOD welcomed them by calling them great fortunate and then asked them to go back to home by reminding them of their family and worldly duties and giving them the reference of the night. Gopis were upset on hearing this, they stood quietly and their eyes became red because of crying. Gopis then said to GOD that they only love the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD after leaving everything. They requested GOD that as He graces and loves His devotees, similarly, GOD should accept them also by love and must not abandon them.

It is not the eligibility of a creature that he can achieve GOD’s love but still the merciful GOD graces His devotees and because of this even after no eligibility, a creature receives GOD’s love.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
  1. Merciful GOD graces His devotees with love.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Gopis said the above words to GOD.

Gopis say that now they want to serve only GOD instead of their husband, son or brothers because GOD has stolen their heart. Earlier their mind was engaged in household activities, but now it is only devoted to the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD. Now they are not ready to leave the service of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD even for a moment. In their heart now there is only a wish of union with GOD and to attain the love of GOD. If GOD does not accept their love and desire of union with GOD then they will burn their bodies in the fire of separation and by the means of meditation, they will achieve the contiguity of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD.

The love of Gopis for GOD is extraordinary. It is impossible to find another example of such love for GOD anywhere.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
  1. We must serve the Divine Lotus feet of GOD with ultimate love and devotion.

Gopis say that like those devotees, now they too have come to the shelter of the dust of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD. The glory of the dust of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD is immense. Sages, saints and devotees sacrifice their lives for serving the dust of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD. Gopis also want to serve the dust of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD after taking their shelter and consume it.

Till now, whoever has taken shelter of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD and has consumed the dust of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD, they have attained supreme status.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Gopis said the above words to GOD.

Gopis left their house, family and everything and came with the desire to surrender in the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD. After coming into the shelter of GOD they prayed GOD to accept them. They said to GOD that they are aware that till now whoever has taken the shelter of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD, GOD has removed all their distress. Therefore they have come with this desire that GOD will grace them and take them in His shelter. It is an eternal principle that as soon as one takes the shelter of GOD, GOD immediately ends all the sins, distress and adversities of that creature. After surrendering, GOD holds the entire burden of that creature. GOD takes full responsibility of that creature.

Therefore, all creatures should take the shelter of GOD after getting this human life, then only their welfare would be ensured.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
  1. GOD holds the entire responsibility of the creature who surrenders to Him.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Gopis said the above words to GOD.

Gopis seek the opportunity to serve GOD on strength of their GOD’s love and surrender. They say that GOD should accept them in the form of His maid and give them the opportunity of His service. That creature is blessed whose feeling of serving GOD is awakened. It is best to live a life as a servant of GOD. GOD is our owner and we are the servant of GOD, we should develop this feeling in life. Gopis have also developed this feeling in life and therefore want the opportunity of service of GOD.

A creature should also awaken the feeling of GOD’s service in him and should consider himself as a servant of GOD.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
  1. In our heart, we should generate a feeling for the service of GOD as a servant.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Gopis said the above words to GOD.

Gopis describe the beauty and qualities of the divine organs of GOD. In this description, they have described the arms of GOD in a very heart-touching manner. Gopis say that both the arms of GOD are very liberal in providing dauntlessness to the refugees. GOD’s arms provide dauntlessness with great generosity to the one who surrenders. Whoever comes in the shadow of the GOD’s Lotus Hands, GOD makes him fearless from all the fears and takes away all his troubles and distress.

Therefore, a creature must try to live in the shadow of GOD’s Lotus Hands and take His shelter.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS

Gopis say that it is a clear principle that GOD very much loves people who are poor and with misery and showers great grace on them. One who has no one, he has GOD. It is the vow of GOD that who is poor and with misery, who is in trouble and distress, who is suffering from fear, GOD graces them and protects them. How big is this empathy for people who are poor and with misery that GOD graces them and loves them. The world ignores the people who are poor and with misery but GOD graces them and loves them.

GOD is ultimate kind and ultimate merciful and behaves kindly like a father with all the people who are poor and with misery.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.

When the Gopis took pride in their minds as a part of pastime and they started believing that they are something special then only GOD is accompanying them, then GOD disappeared from their midst. GOD can bear everything but GOD does not at all tolerate the ego of His devotee and lovers. After the disappearance of GOD, the Gopis engrossed in love became just like ShreeKrishna. They forgot themselves and started imitating the Holy pastimes of GOD. They started acting like GOD and started saying that “I am ShreeKrishna”. Gopis loved GOD so much that after the disappearance of GOD they became very distraught.

There is no place for ego along with love and devotion for GOD, we should always be cautious about this.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.

When GOD disappeared from the midst of Gopis then Gopis started singing the qualities of GOD in a high pitch and started searching for GOD everywhere. GOD Shri Shukdevji says that GOD did not go far away, He is situated in all the things commonly which have life and which does not have a life. GOD was there itself in between them but was not appearing in the vision of Gopis. Saints describe this parable and say that it appeared like GOD was taking the examination of the love of Gopis that how much they were distraught upon the disappearance of GOD and whether their ego has gone or not.

GOD is always in our midst and is manifested by love and devotion.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Gopis said the above words while talking to each other.

When GOD disappeared then Gopis started wandering in the forest in search of GOD. At that time, they saw the signs of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD at one place. Then Gopis said that all those dust particles are blessed which are touched by the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD. It is the fortune of those dust particles that Deities, sages, saints and devotees hold them on their heads to destroy their inauspiciousness. The glory of the dust of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD is infinite. All are eager to have it on their head. Dust of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD can be attained only after the rise of virtues and is an indicator of the welfare of the creature.

All sages, saints and devotees sing the glory of the dust of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - GOD Shri Shukdevji said the above words to King Shri Parikshitji.

After the disappearance of GOD, the mind of Gopis was fully engaged in ShreeKrishna as they were continuously searching for GOD in the forest. They did not discuss anything other than GOD. They were trying to find GOD from their body. Their all pores and soul have become Godly. They were continuously singing the qualities and Holy pastimes of GOD. They were raptly enacting the Holy pastimes of GOD and because of that, they were not even aware of their body. Gopis were neither missing their family, home or children nor were they afraid of night. They were just waiting for one thing that GOD should return as soon as possible.

The love for GOD like that of Gopis cannot be seen anywhere so the name of the Gopis is still taken as the ideal of love for GOD.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Gopis expressed the above feelings in the Gopi song sung by them in pain of separation from GOD.

When GOD disappeared then Gopis could not bear the pain of separation and this pain appeared through their separation song. Gopis says to GOD that GOD is the witness residing in everyone’s heart. GOD is all-knowing. Both things are true in principle. GOD resides in the heart of all creatures and watches everything by witnessing attitude. Nothing is hidden from GOD. Whatever we think, do, speak, watch GOD is aware of everything by witnessing it. GOD is all-knowing and is aware of all the feelings of our conscience.

When we will experience the fact that GOD is all-knowing and resides inside us as a witness then we will not do anything wrong in life.

TRANSLATION OF WRITE-UP IN ENGLISH - Gopis expressed the above feelings in the Gopi song sung by them in pain of separation from GOD.

Gopis says that those people who fear the cycle of birth and death and take the shelter of GOD, GOD takes them in the shadow of His Lotus Hands and gives them dauntlessness. The easiest way to be free from the cycle of birth and death is to take the shelter of the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD. After the complete surrender, GOD relieves us from the cycle of birth and death. After the complete surrender, GOD takes us in the shadow of His Lotus Hands and makes us fearless from the fear of the world forever. No one can give dauntlessness to the creature other than GOD.

Therefore, a creature must take the complete shelter of GOD so that he can get freedom from the cycle of birth and death and he becomes fearless from the fear of this world.

It is the vow of GOD that He makes the refugee sin-free and serene. Sins can only affect us until we do not take the shelter of GOD. As we take the shelter of GOD, GOD burns all our sins and destroys them from the root.

Therefore, the person who wants to be free from sin must mandatorily surrender to GOD.

Gopis say to GOD that how sweet is the voice of GOD. GOD fascinates everyone by His voice. Every word and every character uttered by GOD is sweeter than sweet. Great sages, saints and devotees get engrossed in the voice of GOD and give up everything on the voice of GOD. GOD wins the heart of everyone by His voice. Gopis are so influenced by the voice of GOD that they even forget to take care of their body and mind. The melody of the GOD’s voice is unique. The sweetness that is in the voice of GOD cannot be found anywhere else.

Therefore, no one has ever remained without being impressed by the voice of GOD.

Gopis tell GOD that only GOD is capable of removing all their grieves. It is an eternal principle that only GOD holds the capability to remove all grieves of a creature. None other than GOD is capable of erasing our grief. The second thing which Gopis say is that the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD fulfills all the desires of surrendered devotees. None other than GOD has the capability to fulfill the desires of the creatures. The third thing which Gopis say is that in distress contemplating GOD is the best and most suitable option to escape from troubles because by the mere remembrance of GOD all the troubles are erased.

Therefore, a creature must surrender to GOD and must only remember GOD in life.

Gopis tell their separation pain to GOD. Gopis says that when GOD goes to the forest for serving cows then without seeing GOD their every moment of life seems like an era. When GOD returns in the evening then they continuously want to see the image of GOD but their eyelids fall down again and again and become the cause of obstacle in the visualization of GOD. They remonstrate GOD for making eyelid on top of the eye which causes an obstacle for a moment in the visualization of GOD. Eyelids fall for a moment but Gopis even do not want to be deprived of watching GOD for those moments.

The love of GOD of the Gopis is truly unique and it is not possible to meet this example elsewhere.

We live our life for this world and for our family but Gopis live only for GOD. We should also take inspiration from this and should dedicate our life to GOD. Gopis say that they belong to GOD and are living their life for GOD. We should also live our life by becoming of GOD because we have an eternal relationship with GOD, therefore, it is best to lead a life for GOD.

GOD Shri Shukdevji says that after the disappearance of GOD Gopis continuously searched for GOD. They started singing the separation of GOD in the form of a separation song. They became delirious for union with GOD. They were unable to stop themselves from the desire of visualizing GOD and began to cry. It is impossible to understand the pain of separation of Gopis. GOD is everything for the Gopis and therefore, not finding GOD among themselves, they were very disturbed by the pain of separation.

GOD meets only with anxiety therefore after watching the anxiety of Gopis we should also develop anxiety towards GOD inside us.

After the destruction of the egotism of Gopis in their crying for separation of GOD and because of the anxiety of union with GOD, GOD appeared in the midst of Gopis. All the Gopis got up together like in a lifeless body divine life has been infused. New consciousness and spark entered their body. But like saints are never satisfied after visualizing the Divine Lotus Feet of GOD, similarly, Gopis were not satisfied after visualizing the sweetness of GOD’s Divine Face. With the help of eyes, they took the image of GOD in their heart and started visualizing GOD in their heart by closing their eyes.

A true devotee and GOD lover is never satisfied by the GOD’s contiguity because the attraction of GOD is so much that the dissatisfaction remains.

GIST FOR ALL RELIGIONS
  1. The attraction of GOD is immense.
