By Madhavendu (das) SSM (Vrindavan – IN)<\/strong><\/p>\n ” DADU” The most loved and respected devotee in the whole of Vraja. Dadu does not have a single enemy. He loved everybody and everybody loved him, from the sweepers to Sanyasis. He Left his body today morning (31\/03\/09)at 4:00am. <\/p>\n Devotees were shocked to hear the announcement in the morning. Nobody could actually believe his departure because he was fit and quite active considering his age of 87 years. <\/p>\n Yesterday, H.H.Subhaga Swami Maharaja came to visit DADU in his room and personally served DADU. He massaged his head and cleaned his foot. Today, Maharaja could not believe the announcement he asked us to check Dadu again. <\/p>\n Last year in the months of April – May Dadu suffered from phenumonia, congested chest, severe head ache and back pain, and all of us thought that finally this glorious devotee is preparing to leave us and we gave up our hopes. HG Aindra Prabhu started Kirtan, HG Saranga thakur Prabhu was preparing for last Kriya but surprisingly Dadu came back to normal life by Ayurvedic treatment under the supervision of Mother Parvati’s daughter. Last 4\/5 days DADU was not able to come out from his room due to weakness, treatment was going on with love and affection. <\/p>\n DADU told me “I am OK, no pain just little weakness but they are giving me so much medicine”. DADU’S glorious Journey to Jamuna Ghat (near kesi Ghat) with ecstatic Kirtan was lead by H.G. Gadhi Prabhu. <\/p>\n H.G. Bhurijana Prabhu, H.H. BB Govinda Swami, H.G. Purnachandra Prabhu, H.G. Pundarik Prabhu, H.G. Vaisnava Prabhu, H.G. Janardana Prabhu and many more devotees took part in this last memorable yathra. Matajis with tears, followed their most beloved Dadu’s final journey. HH BB Govinda Swami came by a Rickshaw and joined the procession near Kaliyadaha, offered full dandavatas and then carried Dadu. Many tried to cherish the memories of their dear friend by clicking many photographs. H.G. Letter dadu’s ‘postman’ (Dhiren sen) life is a very big inspiration for all of us. He never wore shoes in Vrindavan, respected Vraja dhuli even in his bad health. He came to Vraja in 1985. His spontaneous attraction was to the sakhya rasa. Dadu spoke the following words on Wednesday, April 02, 2008 during his bad health condition: There are four kinds of sakhas:<\/p>\n 1. “Suhrid Sakha: They are older than Krishna. Balaram is the leader. They always try to protect Krishna. They consider Krishna is fit for their protection. Also they try to protect Krishna By holding arms.<\/p>\n 2. Sadharan Sakha : They are the ordinary Sakhas, they are a little younger than Krishna, they lovingly serve Krishna by performing intimate body seva, like massage, fanning etc.<\/p>\n 3. Priya Sakha: Sridam, Dam, Sudam and Basudam are the leaders of Priya Sakhas. Even though they are priya Sakha but Sridam is Radha’s brother therefore Krishna cannot have any madhur rasa talk with Sridam.<\/p>\n 4. Priya narma Sakha: Subal , Arjun, Gandharva, Vasanta, Ujjal – they are leaders and are supported by Madhumangal the greedy one, and their eyes want to deliver krishna’s secret message and appointment with Radha.<\/p>\n This I want but I have not got yet, I have ambition to sports with Krishna’s Brajs Sakhas and also picnic, with the help of Madhumangal there. Then my aspiration is to find the place in Gaur Lila too. Vasughose kahe “Krishna tumi more daya na Cadiyo” in this place I want some space. Krishna can have all verities of talks even madhur rasa talks with Priya narma sakhas. My ambition was to get a name like ujjal das babaji, under Ujjal Sakha to do bhajan but I could not have any mantra. I was there in Radha Kunda for 27 month in 1985 to 1987 May.<\/p>\n Ananta das babaji of Radha kund tried to convince me, my liking for Sakhya rasa is a blunder. I should accept madhurya rasa, but he could not change me. Then I left him because I was sure that i won’t get the Sakhya rasa that I want. Then I came over to Vrindavan to join ISKCON in 1987.<\/p>\n My Brother -in- law introduced me to Adridharan Prabhu, he gave me a recommendation letter to join ISKCON, Vrindavan with that I spoke to Deena bandhu Prabhu, he too asserted that I won’t get any Sakhya Rasa here in Vrindavan. But why? No reply. When I reach here in Vrindavan I found Deena Bandhu Prabhu was giving a class, he also tried to convince me that Radha kunda is higher place and Madhurya Rasa is highest. <\/p>\n But I told I am not getting Sakhya rasa there. I told him that here in the temple Krishna-Balaram are standing in the Center; they are the leaders of Sakhya rasa then why not I will get the mantra for Sakhya rasa along with Madhur ya rasa. I didn’t get any reply to that too ! “Gauranga kabhu na more karuna chadiyo” I could not do any bhajan under Ujjal Sakha that I desired, I have not done any bhajan therefore I cannot claim any bhajan Siddhi, I am depending on Kripa. I intend to deliver Krishna’s secret message, appointment with Radharani. Then play with the Gopa Sakhas and also eats picnic lunch with them. My ambition is also to find a place in Gaura Lila. Where Vasudeva Ghose Sings-“Krishna Kabhu na more Karuna chadiya” Nitai-Gaur is incomplete without Advaitacarya. I always offer my obeisance’s thinking that Advaita Acarya is also there, and I pay my obeisances to Nitai-gaur Sitanath. It will be complete if Nitai-Gaur-Sitanath is there. <\/p>\n Just like without sugar, tea and milk is incomplete. Krishna-Balaram is the leader of all the Sakhas. This temple belongs to Krishna-balaram and Their alter is in the central, their spire is tallest, so it is very much Krishna Balaram Mandir, then side by side with Madhurya rasa Mantra why Sakhya rasa mantra is not available here? I could not get any reply to this question. I continue to desire Sakhya rasa Mantra under Ujjal Sakha, If I can get here, I am ready to get Mantra without leaving ISKCON, Vrindavan. I could not get any mantra or do any bhajan accordingly. <\/p>\n At the same time it is my ambition to be in Gaura Lila where Vasu ghose kahe gauranga tumi more daya na chadibe: I want place there also. I have come to the end of my life, even if I get mantra, naam under Ujjal, I have no time or opportunity or longevity to do the bhajan and my only alternative is to depend on Kripa siddhi. So I desire some space in Gaura lila and kripa siddhi “Gauranga kabhu na more kripa nachadibe”. H.H. Bhakti Visrambha Madhava Swami wrote: “I hope dadu gets better so he can do Sri Sri Krsna Balarama bhajana under ujjvala sakha’s group leadership in the spiritual world as He desires. May srila Prabhupada, who is the dear sakha of sri sri Krsna Balarama, help dadu to attain his Krpa siddhi also. <\/p>\n I hope sri sri Krsna Balarama will lovingly hug him and keep him eternally in Their loving sakhya seva with their other friends in Goloka dhama!”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" ” DADU” The most loved and respected devotee in the whole of Vraja.
