English translation
Glory to Guru and Ganga; Gratitude and Worship of Gurudev by Srivajranabh and Significance of Bhajan-Chintan and Garga Samhita of Shri Krishna
Sriganganji says - Rajan. One who has done Akshaya Tapas in a previous life has devotion to his Guru in this world. Whoever, despite being able, does not serve the Guru, does not believe in his Guru, always falls into 'Kumbipak' hell. One who sees a man who does not have devotion to his guru coming in front of him feels the sin of cow slaughter. He is cleansed of that sin by bathing in the Ganges and Yamuna. The disciple should understand the guru as the tenth part of all the matter available to him / her. Similarly, in our household matter, the Guru has the tenth part. The disciple who forcibly consumes it, does not give it to the guru separately, goes to 'maharaurava' hell and is purified of all pleasures. 1-5 | (Ashwamedhkhanda Chapters 59 to 62)
The king! Those who perform the Nitya Srihari Navaddha Bhakti, spontaneously cross the ocean of the world. Jnati (kutumbijana), Vidya, Vimana, Rupa and Yuvana - renounce it diligently; for these are the thorns of the five paths of devotion. Rajendra. There is no doubt that those who take the prasad and Charanodaka of Lord Krishna with devotion are the purifiers of this earth. Ganga kidnaps Papaka, Chandra Tapaka, and Kalpavriksha Daunata's curse, but Satsanga immediately destroys all three - Sin, Heat, and Pain. The ancestors of humans, desirous of attaining Pinda, roam the terrifying world until a son devout to Krishna is born in their lineage. What kind of guru is he, what kind of father, what kind of son, what kind of friend, what kind of king, and what kind of brother, who does not give his heart to Srihari? Those who boast of knowledge, wealth, home, and family, and have everlasting wisdom in form, and in sons and daughters, and who do not worship Lord Keshav, who looks to other gods with fanciful desire, are like those who are alive and dead. 6-12 |
Oh dear Lord! This is what I have told you in front of you, 'Sumeru' of the Sri Krishna Charitra, which is pervaded by the playful characters of Sri Krishna. Nripsinha! By simply listening to it, one attains the devotion to Lord Krishna, the remover of sorrow, attachment, and fear. Man attains the desired fruits of wealth, son, devotion, and consolation only by hearing and reading this character. Rajendra! Therefore, you should soon stay at home or in the forest with devotion, knowing only the luxuries of the resolve of the entire universe, and soon engage in bhajans to Jagadishwara Krishna. The hero! May your age progressively increase like the night of the Hemanta season and may people always cherish your darshan like the sun of the Hemanta season. May you always be as fierce as the waters of autumn to your enemies, and may your enemies always perish like the lotus of autumn. 13-17 |
Hearing this, says Sutaji, King Vajranabha was overjoyed and in love, remembering the greatness of Krishna. He spoke by bowing at the feet of the Guru. 18.
The king exclaimed, "Oh my goodness! I was blessed and grateful to hear the greatness of Lord Krishna from the compassionate Gurudev. My heart went out to Lord Krishna. 19.
Sutji says - Having said this, Nripat Shrestha Vajranabhan worshipped Guru Gargacharya with garlands of Gandha, Akshat, Pushpahar and netted Suvarna. Shocking! They worshipped the Guru by offering horses, elephants, chariots, tents, grand buildings, silver, gold bulls, gems and villages, and filled with joy themselves, they paid obeisance to him and parikrama, performed his nirajana (aarti), etc. 20-22 |
Gargacharya then got up, blessed Vajranabha, and left with Dakshina, greeted by Bhupala. Arriving at a pilgrimage called Vishramghat on the banks of the Yamuna, Munishwar distributed all the wealth to the Brahmins of Mathura. Subsequently, at Gargaji's behest, Vajranabhan Mathurama performed the Ashvamedha Yajna, similar to that performed by King Yudhishthira of Hastinapur. He then installed the idols of 'Dirghavishnu' and 'Keshavdev' in Mathura, 'Govinddev' in Vrindavan, 'Haridevji' on Giriraj Govardhan, 'Gokuleshwar' in Gokul, and 'Baldauji' a yojana away from Gokul. These six images of Srihariki are installed by King Vajranabhaka. Vajra, full of joy, also installed five other statues of Baldauji in Vrajmandal for the welfare of the people. 23-28 |
At the end of the four thousand and five hundred years of the Kali Yuga, Shrinathji will emerge over Giriraj. The idol will be worshipped by Lord Vishnu, the embodiment of the Sun. Subsequently, other Gokulites like Vallabha and Goswami would worship Shrinathji as his disciples. 29-30 |
Fools! Seeing that King Parikshit was liberated from listening to the Srimad Bhagavata, Vajranabha considered renouncing his kingdom due to renunciation. After this, Aupagavaputra Param Vaishnava Udhavaji came there from the ashram of Nara-Narayana wearing the feet of Lord Krishna on his head. The king bowed at Uddhavji's feet by worshipping him with remedies such as Pratyuthana and Asana. Udhava then narrated the story of Srimad Bhagavata to Vajranabha with great joy. Vajra was overjoyed to hear the Bhagavata story narrated by Uddhavji and said, "Tat! I first heard this story in the court of King Parikshit. Shukadeva described there the Samadhi language of Vyasa. Then you told the same story. Now I am completely grateful. " 31-35 |
Having said this, Vajranabha gave his kingdom to Pratibahu and left for Golokdham by flight. Uddhavji also went with them. In the southern part of Mathura, Vajranabhaputra ruled religiously, and in the northern part, Parikshitaputra was born. 36-37 |
Shaunakji! Now comes the great and terrible Kali Yuga, but one sustenance appears, which will destroy all sins. As long as Shrimad Bhagavatashastra remains, as long as the Gosva ̄ mi ̄ people remain in Gokul, and as long as Govardhan and Ganges remain, there will be no (special) effect of the Kali Yuga. Oh no! Just as this golden merugiri adorns the central part of Jambudvipa in the nine blocks of India like a lotus flower, similarly, in Mahamuni Garga's' Golokhanda Samhita ', this character of' Ashvamedha 'is seated in the central part like Sumeru. By simply listening to it, the Brahmahatara, Streehanta, Rajhanta, Pitruhanta, and Gohatara are also freed from all sins. From just listening to it, a Brahmin acquires the Vidya, the Kshatriya state, the Vaishya wealth, and the Shudra religion. Just as the Ganges is superior among the rivers, Lord Krishna is superior among the gods, and the Tirtha king Prayag is superior among the Tirthas, similarly, among all the Samhitas, this Samhita of Ashvamedhakhand is superior. By simply listening to it, the superior person attains great satisfaction. The Moon Just as the study of the Bhagavata does not lead to attachment to other scriptures, so does its study lead to attachment elsewhere. Therefore, O saints! Pray to the feet of Lord Krishna for your well-being, who takes away the sufferings of the devotees. 38-46 |
Sages like Shaunaka, states Sage Gargaji, were thus pleased to hear Sriharika's character and praised Sutaputra Ugrasravaka profusely. O Karunanidhi! Narayan! I am devastated and saddened by the sinking of the world's oceans. Kalarupi Grahan has gripped my limbs. You save me; I salute you. Sadhu Shiromani Gurudev! Thou art the Lord of the Orphans, have mercy on us. Just as Jagadeeshwara grants refuge to the three worlds, so grant me grace. The character of Sriharika, as I have said, is made possible by the grace of Sri Gurudev and the virtue of the service of Srimadanamohanji. Valmiki, etc., and Vedavyasa, etc., sages! Look at this frivolous poem of mine and forgive me for my transgressions. I bow my head in reverence and devotion to Anantadeva Sriradhavallabha Madhava Sri Krishna, the preserver of the Vraja, the dark one like the new waterfall, the lord of the gods, the remover of the sufferings of the devotees, and the ultimate form. There are twenty-seven hundred and eighty-seven verses in this scripture of my soul, Shri Krishna, in which his playful characters are sung. 47-53 |
Thus was completed the sixty-second chapter called 'Sumeru Sampoorthy' under the Ashvamedha Khanda in the Srigargha Samhita. 62.
