Ramanand Sagar's 'Shri Krishna' (1):- Story Of Bhakti Mata

Coming here after a long time :). Now sometime i will try to discuss or note some incidents shown in the Ramanand Saagar's 'Shri Krishna' , which were either not known to me or which have some greater significance. Dear friends, after reading these posts or watching the video, do share your experiences about the serial :).




STORY OF BHAKTI MATA

Watch it here:

And here:


From all these amazing LEELA of the LORD , now lets go back a bit , where the story of SHRI KRISHNA serial started . After narrating a few events from the starting episodes , we will again come to the childhood LEELAS of the LORD .


The serial starts with the story of NARAD’s meeting with BHAKTI MATA .


One day while visiting the earth , NARAD comes across a young lady crying with two aged persons . Gradually he comes to know that the lady is BHAKTI , but the two aged persons are her sons – GYAN and VAIRAGYA . All of them have become very feeble in health because of the influence of KALIYUG on people . BHAKTI regained her youth due to the atmosphere of DEVOTION at Vrindavan , but people had nearly abandoned GYAN and VAIRAGYA in KALIYUG – so they are suffering . She wanted to know from NARAD - how to revive her sons to good health .


Then NARAD , goes to KRISHNA , and BRAHMA to know the way to solve the problem of BHAKTI . According to their advice , he starts meditating on the word- OM at Badrikashram . after much penance , the four sons of BRAHMA - SANAK , SANANDAN , SANATAN and SANAT KUMAR come and tell him to arrange a reading of SHRIMAD BHAGAWAT at Anand Ghat near HARIDWAR .


They also explain that – Salvation can be achieved by only chanting the name of HARI in KALIYUG , whereas in SATYA , TRETA and DWAPAR yug - even penance , yoga and meditaion were not enough to achieve Salvation .


As they started narrating the PURAN , gradually GYAN and VAIRAGYA became young and healthy again .

This story shows us the impact of Shrimad Bhagwat . It contains the essence of all VEDAS , UPANISHADS and SCRIPTURES and enlightens our life in all possible ways .


Next time we'll see how Narad got rid of his pride by Shri Krishna.


Jai Shri Krishna!

Bliss Generated by Shri Krishna: Some songs from Ramanand Sagar's 'Shri Krishna'

Just thought to post some songs from Ramanand Sagar's Shri Krishna serial, where we can FEEL the Bliss genrated by the Lord to all the persons around Him. Each of these songs are Sooo Special to me due to emotions (Joy) they produce! "Baal Roop dekhke jo Kanhaai" , posted by Lola (IF) Video:- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvNLdKxH6BY&feature=related Baal roop dekhen jo Kanhaai, seeing the child form of Lord Krishna, Munivar ne sudh budh bisaraai; the sage lost track of his surroundings Harash apaar hriday na samaaye, his heart couldn't contain the immesne rush of joy N ayanan me aansoo bhar aaye. it filled his eyes with tears Antar gati jo bhayee lakhi swaami , his state of mind upon seeing his master So jaanat bas antaryaami; could only be known by the Master Himself Kaise abhinandan karen?

'Hari Haraye Namah Krishna'

This is a very famous and old stotra on Shri Krishna. I heard it for the first time in the film 'Aagantuk'. Utpal Dutt was reciting this stotra, the original voice was of Satyajit Ray's, I think. But there the stotra remained incomplete as the next events of the film started taking place. From then, I always wanted to listen the full stotra along with reading it. Very recently I came to the audio track of the same and got the lyrics on internet. It has 10 stanzas, written by Narottam Das. Above the post I have given the vidoe of the song from YouTube, and here is the lyrics, and the English translation (which I got from the internet, credit goes to the original writer who posted the lyrics). (1) Hari haraye namah krishna yadavaya namah Yadavaya madhavaya kesavaya namah (2) Gopala govinda rama sri-madhusudana Giridhari gopinatha madana-mohana (3) Sri-caitanya-nityananda sri-advaita-sita Hari guru vaishnava bhagavata gita (4) Sri-rupa sanatana bhatta-...
