Vrindavana yatra part 3
Respected Swamiji and all Vaisnavas,
Nityananda! Gauranga! Hare Krishna!
Jaya Visnupada Srila Prabhupada!
Jaya Visnupada Swami Gaurangpada!
All glories to the guru parampara!
All glories to the Vaisnavas!
With your mercy and kind permission I continue with my Vrindavana trip.
The deity of Radha Gopinatha (blurred though, please forgive me)
Beautiful picture of Sri Krishna Caitanya Mahaprabhu!
Beautiful Radha Krishna (similar to the deity in my house). Now that I think of it, I feel the Lord in my house was accompanying me all the way!
Radha Gopinatha Mandir
What follows next is a series of Murals on the Gaudiya Matha (?) temple at Imli Tala depicting the pastimes of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Absolutely fantastic! But I am sorry that the order is all mixed up
Before Prakasananda Sarasvati and thousands of other mayawadi Sannyasis in Varanasi
Making the wild animals dance in ecstasy in the forests.
Slaughter of the Bhattatharis and rescuing Kala Krishnadasa
Showing his Sat-Buja form to Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya
Taking sannyasa from Kesava Bharati
Convincing Chand Kazi
Forgiving Jagai-Madhai. Sorry, but Mahaprabhu is holding the Sudarshana Chakra which is missing in the picture.
Receiving Diksha from Sri Isvara Puri
Marriage with Srimati Visnupriya Devi
Taking Sridhara's fruits
Defeating Kesava Kasmiri, the digvijaya
Childhood mischevious pastimes
The Gaudiya Math Deities -- very blurred sorry
The passing of Haridasa Thakura
Water Pastimes in Puri
Panihati Festival
Rupa Gosvami meets the Lord
Rediscovery of Radha and Syama Kundas
21 hour Mahaprakasha Lila
Sanatana Gosvami meets the Lord
Dancing at the Ratha Yatra in Puri (sorry , blurred)
Rasa Lila, The deities, the pastime where Mahaprabhu jumps into the sea and found by a fisherman and also a photo of Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati in the right background (blurred slightly)
The Imli Tala, tree under which Mahaprabhu sat. It is more than 5000 years old but is eternally fresh as new!
Whew! That is a lot of photos! Thank you all for your patience! More to come in subsequent posts.
Aspiring to be your servant
Srinath
