Boliye Shri Krishna Chandra Bhagawan Ki Jai!!
yesterday the meditation we had done was we were bathing Shri Krishna with
panch-amrit but we did not do his ornamentation his shringar are in great
detail so let us today meditate that we are
doing the shringar the ornamentation of Shri Krishna dressing him up okay like
you dress the deity at home so we'll dress up Shri Krishna so close your eyes
and think that the supreme lord shri krishna is in front of you he is yours
and you are his and because of your love he's accepting your Seva your service
he is seated on a stool you are standing before him and you're feeling tremendous
bliss in the presence of Shri Krishna
you have just beat him and you've made him wear and roti and put a cloth around
his neck that is falling over his chest
now you have taken a comb and you are combing Shri Krishna's curly hair you
are using both your hand and the comb to unentangled Shri Krishna's hair to
unravel it and commit and Shri Krishna's lovingly accepting your savor you get an
opportunity to look into his eyes and his loving look encourages you further
to serve him with great devotion
but your goal is to make Shri Krishna happy
it's very carefully that he should not be hurt by the pulling of the hair you
are combing his hair now you have placed
crown needs diamonds on Shri Krishna's head and put a peacock feather on top of
it
so he is a raasik Shiromani he is he savors that divine bliss of love and
although he could had the most gorgeous crowns he prefers this crown of the
peacock feather having placed it on him you are looking how nice shri krishna is
looking with it you've taken it little to one side slightly inclined and tied
it at the back of his head so that it does not fall
now you have taken some sandalwood some chandan and applied a tilak shri
krishna's large forehead the tika on his head
now you have taken kumkum powder reddish powder and you've applied it over that
sandalwood a second tika on his head
you had some earrings some golden colored earrings you're hanging these
from Shri Krishna's ears
putting another kind of ornamentation called measured between Shri Krishna's
lips and his nose
and putting a black spot on his forehead
to drive away evil spirits although there is no question of any evil spirit
influencing or overpowering shri krishna but it is your loving sentiment you are
not looking on him as God you are simply looking on him as your beloved and with
that tender feeling you wish to protect him so you fought a black mark on his
forehead now you've begun putting Mead necklaces around his neck one very short
necklace that goes straight around the neck made of diamonds another bead
necklace that's hanging slightly lower
and another necklace that goes even lower one more that goes even lower so
covering Shri Krishna's chest are these varieties of necklaces that are
sparkling with their splendor and a very special jeweled called cows to money you
have put it also around Shri Krishna's neck so it's directly over his chest now
you had made a garland a special garland that Shri Krishna wears from the five
flowers of the forest it is called one mala
you have taken this one mala and put it around Shri Krishna and it's coming
right up to his knees
green-colored with a variety of flowers including the Tulsi leaf and that
garland the aroma that is emanating from it has made the atmosphere even more
divine and spiritual and in your heart you're thanking shri krishna for this
opportunity to serve him with your eyes you are observing his divine form and
feeling that unity with him from within that he is mine
you have taken armbands Mazal buns and you are tying it around
the upper arms of shri krishna both the left arm and the right arm one at a time
now you have taken some special bangles and you are putting them around Shri
Krishna's wrists on both hands left hand and right hand
now you've taken a reddish clot and you are dyeing it around shri krishna's
waist so that it covers his backside and in the front you tie a knot this is
called Ghajini that goes over the booty
now you've taken a string of little bells called King Kenny and you are
trying it around Shri Krishna's waist on his feet you are tying around them ankle
bells around the ankles
so when Shri Krishna walks these different ornaments will make a
wonderful noise a ruminant hundred who knee the ankle bells little bells around
the waist and the bangles around his arms now that flute of his you have
tucked it into his dhoti in the waist
and his favorite little black blanket you've put it over his right shoulder
you have taken some Tulsi leaves and placed them at the feet of Shri Krishna
now having done this ornamentation you are bowing down in front of him in
obeisance lying down on the ground for him having offered the obeisance you
have sat down in front of him shri krishna is sitting on the chair
before you now engage in contemplation of him in prayer to him think of all the
wonderful qualities that God that Shri Krishna possesses he is the source of
all beauty we are attracted to beauty in this world all that is emanating from
Shri Krishna how beautiful he is let us develop the desire to see Shri Krishna
rather than hankering for the beauty of the world repeatedly bring this thought
to your mind and how beautiful God is
think of his quality of mercy how kind and compassionate he is in so many
different ways he's bestowed his grace on you since eternity he has sustained a
personality sitting in our hearts following us wherever we have gone for
nine months when we were in the mother's womb he protected us there when we came
out into the world he kept this world ready for us air to breathe water to
drink food to eat this is all His grace upon us and with his open arms he's
waiting for us to surrender to Him he's so anxious that he is manifested the
Vedas to provide us with knowledge
and the Vedas are not sufficient he sends his saints to teach us and
instruct us and inspire us and noting our previous sadhana he turns our mind
in his direction so that we develop the longing to attain him so think how
merciful and kind he is
if only we could surrender to him what would he not do for us
repeatedly think that you have a relationship with him
because you are not this body you are the soul you are an eternal fragment of
His divine power so he alone is yours and you are his repeatedly think of this
and develop the intense longing to attain his love and to serve Him
now pray to him to bestow His divine love on you
oh ye knowen me hurry lolly key
