Chapter 11 of Krsna Bhavanamrta



 
Playing on Swings in the Rainy Season  (10:48 a.m. - 3:36 p.m.) 

 

 

Surrounded by the sakhis, Krishna came out of the kunja and the honeybee-like glance of His beloved One drank the honey of His sweetness. It was as if millions of Cupids, being defeated by Krishna in beauty, worshipped a drop of the beauty of His toenails. Looking at Radhika, Krishna placed His left arm on Her shoulder, making Her shiver with ecstasy, like a…

Relishing the Nectar of Playing in the Kunja

(10:48 a.m. - 3:36 p.m.)

 

 

While Radha and Krishna blissfully spent Their time in the kunja, Lalita and the sakhis sat in their assembly under a tree and Nandimukhi and Vrinda had their long cherished desires fulfilled by seeing Radha and Krishna's loving pastimes. The six seasonal (India has six seasons, not four) Laxmis came to that assembly of sakhis to hear what their…

chapter 9 of Krsna Bhavanamrta

my humble pranams to the readers of Krsna Bhavanamrta

So Srila Prabhupada wrote :

"Shrila Visvanatha Chakravarti Thakura has given us a transcendental literature entitled Krishna Bhavanamrita, which is full with Krishna's pastimes. Devotees can remain absorbed in Krishna-thought by reading such books."

(Shrila Prabhupada  KB  "Uddhava Visits Vrndavana"

So Srila Prabhupada authorized reading Krsna Bhavanamrta but who is reading it? Who is even carefully…

Chapter 6

Breakfast and Other Pastimes

Pratah Lila continued  (6:00 a.m.- 8:24 a.m.)

 

 

In order to relieve Shri Krishna from His separation  from Radha, one young suka parrot recited verses to Him with the syllables 'ra' and 'dha' hidden in them, so that He could relish them without being caught by His superiors. He sang, "May Lord Narayana, whose body resembles a mountain (dharadhara), be merciful to us!" After that, the parrot…

Shri Radhika told Kundalata, "Sakhi, by Vrajesvari's grace you have quickly come here. Your arrival is as beautiful as the moon rise in the east at nightfall (a full moon).
