shrishukadevaji kahate haian- "parikshit! bhagavan ke is prakar kahane par akrooraji kuchh anamane-se ho gaye. unhoanne puri mean pravesh karake kans se shrikrishn aur balaram ke ane ka samachar nivedan kiya aur phir apane ghar gaye. doosare din tisare pahar balaramaji aur gvalabaloan ke sath bhagavan shrikrishn ne mathurapuri ki dekhane ke liye nagar mean pravesh kiya. bhagavan ne dekha ki nagar ke parakote mean sphatikamani[3] ke bahut ooanche-ooanche gopur[4] tatha gharoan mean bhi b de-b de phatak bane hue haian. unamean sone ke b de-b de kianva d lage haian aur sone ke hi toran[5] bane hue haian. nagar ke charoan or taanbean aur pital ki chaharadivari bani huee hai. khaee ke karan aur kahian se us nagar mean pravesh karana bahut kathin hai. sthan-sthan par sundar-sundar udyan aur ramaniy upavan[6] shobhayaman haian. suvarn se saje hue chaurahe, dhaniyoan ke mahal, unhian ke sath ke bagiche, karigaroan ke baithane ke sthan ya prajavarg ke sabha-bhavan aur sadharan logoan ke nivasagrih nagar ki shobha badha rahe haian. vaidoory, hire, sphatik, nilam, mooange, moti aur panne adi se j de hue chhajje, chabootare, jharokhe evan pharsh adi jagamaga rahe haian. un par baithe hue kabootar, mor adi pakshi bhaanti-bhaanti boli bol rahe haian. s dak, bazar, gali evan chaurahoan par khoob chhi dakav kiya gaya hai. sthan-sthan par phooloan ke gajare, javare[7], khil aur chaval bikhare hue haian. gharoan ke daravazoan par dahi aur chandan adi se charchit jal se bhare hue kalash rakhe haian aur ve phool, dipak, nayi-nayi koanpalean phal sahit kele aur supari ke vriksh, chhoti-chhoti jhandiyoan aur reshami vastroan se bhalibhaanti sajae hue haian.
parikshit! vasudevanandan bhagavan shrikrishn aur balaramaji ne gvalabaloan ke sath rajapath se mathura nagari mean pravesh kiya. us samay nagar ki nariyaan b di utsukata se unhean dekhane ke liye jhatapat atariyoan par chadh gayian. kisi-kisi ne jaldi ke karan apane vastr aur gahane pahan liye. kisi ne bhool se kundal, kangan adi jo d se pahane jane vale abhooshanoan mean se ek hi pahana aur chal p di. koee ek hi kan mean patr namak abhooshan dharan kar payi thi to kisi ne ek hi paanv mean payajeb pahan rakha tha. koee ek hi aankh mean aanjan aanj payi thi aur doosari mean bina aanje hi chal p di. kee ramaniyaan to bhojan kar rahi thian, ve hath ka kaur pheankakar chal p dian. sabaka man utsah aur anand se bhar raha tha. koee-koee ubatan lagava rahi thian, ve bina snan kiye hi dau d p dian. jo so rahi thian, ve kolahal sunakar uth kh di hueean aur usi avastha mean dau d chalian. jo mataean bachchoan ko doodh pila rahi thian, ve unhean god se hatakar bhagavan shrikrishn ko dekhane ke liye chal p dian. kamalanayan bhagavan shrikrishn matavale gajaraj ke saman b di masti se chal rahe the. unhoanne lakshmi ko bhi anandit karane vale apane shyamasundar vigrah se nagaranariyoan ke netroan ko b da anand diya aur apani vilasapoorn pragalbh hansi tatha premabhari chitavan se unake man chura liye. mathura ki striyaan bahut dinoan se bhagavan shrikrishn ki adbhut lilaean sunati a rahi thian. unake chitt-chirakal se shrikrishn ke liye chanchal, vyakul ho rahe the. aj unhoanne unhean dekha. bhagavan shrikrishn ne bhi apani premabhari chitavan aur mand muskan ki sudha se sianchakar unaka samman kiya. parikshit! un striyoan ne netroan ke dvara bhagavan ko apane hriday mean le jakar unake anandamay svaroop ka aliangan kiya. unaka sharir pulakit ho gaya aur bahut dinoan ki virah-vyadhi shant ho gayi. mathura ki nariyaan apane-apane mahaloan ki atariyoan par chadhakar balaram aur shrikrishn par pushpoan ki varsha karane lagian. us samay un striyoan ke mukhakamal prem ke aveg se khil rahe the. brahman, kshatriy aur veshyoan ne sthan-sthan par dahi, akshat, jal se bhare patr, phooloan ke har, chandan aur bheant ki samagriyoan se anandamagn hokar bhagavan shrikrishn aur balaramaji ki pooja ki. bhagavan ko dekhakar sabhi puravasi apas mean kahane lage- "dhany haian! dhany haian!" gopiyoan ne aisi kaun-si mahan tapasya ki hai, jisake karan ve manushyamatr ko paramanand dene vale in donoan manohar kishoroan ko dekhati rahati haian.
isi samay bhagavan shrikrishn ne dekha ki ek dhobi, jo kap de rangane ka bhi kam karata tha, unaki or a raha hai. bhagavan shrikrishn ne usase dhule hue uttam-uttam kap de maange. bhagavan ne kaha- "bhaee! tum hamean aise vastr do, jo hamare sharir mean poore-poore a jayan. vastav mean ham log un vastroan ke adhikari haian. isamean sandeh nahian ki yadi tum ham logoan ko vastr doge to tumhara param kalyan hoga." parikshit! bhagavan sarvatr paripoorn haian. sab kuchh unhian ka hai. phir bhi unhoanne is prakar maangane ki lila ki. parantu vah moorkh kans ka sevak hone ke karan matavala ho raha tha. bhagavan ki vastu bhagavan ko dena to door raha, usane krodh mean bharakar apeksh karate hue kaha- "tum log rahate ho sada paha d aur jangaloan mean. kya vahaan aise hi vastr pahanate ho? tum log bahut udand ho gaye ho tabhi to aise badh-badhakar batean karate ho. ab tumhean raja ka dhan lootane ki ichchha huee hai. are, moorkhoan! jao, bhag jao. yadi kuchh din jine ki ichchha ho to phir is tarah mat maangana. rajyakarmachari tumhare jaise uchchhrikhanloan ko kaid kar lete haian, mar dalate haian aur jo kuchh unake pas hota hai, chhin lete haian."
jab vah dhobi is prakar bahut kuchh bahak-bahakakar batean karane laga, tab bhagavan shrikrishn ne tanik kupit hokar use ek tamacha jamaya aur usaka sir dh dam se dh d se niche ja gira. yah dekhakar us dhobi ke adhin kam karane vale sab-ke-sab kap doan ke gatthar vahian chho dakar idhar-udhar bhag gaye. bhagavan ne un vastroan ko le liya. bhagavan shrikrishn aur balaramaji ne manamane vastr pahan liye tatha bache hue vastroan mean se bahut-se apane sathi gval-baloan ko bhi diye. bahut-se kap de to vahian jamin par hi chho dakar chal diye. bhagavan shrikrishn aur balaram jab kuchh age badhe, tab unhean ek darji mila. bhagavan ka anupam saundary dekhakar use b di prasannata huee. usane un rang-birange sundar vastroan ko unake sharir par aise dhang se saja diya ki ve sab thik-thik phab gaye. anek prakar ke vastroan se vibhooshit hokar donoan bhaee aur bhi adhik shobhayaman hue aise jan p date, mano utsav ke samay shvet aur shyam gajashavak bhalibhaanti saja diye gaye hoan. bhagavan shrikrishn us darji par bahut prasann hue. unhoanne use is lok mean bharapoor dhan-sampatti, bal-aishvary, apani smriti aur door tak dekhane-sunane adi ki indriyasambandhi shaktiyaan di aur mrityu ke bad ke liye apana sarupy moksh bhi de diya.
isake bad bhagavan shrikrishn sudama mali ke ghar gaye. donoan bhaiyoan ko dekhate hi sudama uth kh da hua aur prithvi par sir rakhakar unhean pranam kiya. phir unako asan par baithakar unake paanv pakhare, hath dhulaye aur tadanantar gvalabaloan ke sahit sabaki phooloan ke har, pan, chandan adi samagriyoan se vidhipoorvak pooja ki. isake pashchath usane prarthana ki- "prabho! ap donoan ke shubhagaman se hamara janm saphal ho gaya. hamara kul pavitr ho gaya. aj ham pitar, rrishi aur devataoan ke rrin se mukt ho gaye. ve ham par param santusht haian. ap donoan sampoorn jagat ke param karan haian. ap sansar ke abhyuday-unnati aur niahshreyas-moksh ke liye hi is prithvi par apane jnan, bal adi aanshoan ke sath avatirn hue haian. yadyapi ap prem karane valoan se hi prem karate haian, bhajan karane valoan ko hi bhajate haian, phir bhi apaki drishti mean vishamata nahian hai. kyoanki ap sare jagat ke param suhrid aur atma haian. ap samast praniyoan aur padarthoan mean samaroop se sthit haian. maian apaka das hooan. ap donoan mujhe ajna dijiye ki maian ap logoan ki kya seva karooan. bhagavan! jiv par apaka yah bahut b da anugrah hai, poorn kripaprasad hai ki ap use ajna dekar kisi kary mean niyukt karate haian." rajendr! sudama mali ne is prakar prarthana karane ke bad bhagavan ka abhipray janakar b de prem aur anand se bharakar atyant sundar-sundar tatha sugandhit pushpoan se guanthean hue har unhean pahanaye.
jab gvalabal aur balaramaji ke sath bhagavan shrikrishn un sundar-sundar malaoan se alankrit ho chuke, tab un varadayak prabhu ne prasann hokar vinit aur sharanagat sudama ko shreshth var diye. sudama mali ne unase yahi var maanga ki "prabho! ap hi samast praniyoan ke atma haian. sarvasvaroop apake charanoan mean meri avichal bhakti ho. apake bhaktoan se mera sauhard, matri ka sambandh ho aur samast praniyoan ke prati ahaituk daya ka bhav bana rahe." bhagavan shrikrishn ne sudama ko usake maange hue var to diye hi-aisi lakshmi bhi di jo vanshaparampara ke sath-sath badhati jay; aur sath hi bal, ayu, kirti tatha kanti ka bhi varadan diya. isake bad bhagavan shrikrishn balaramaji ke sath vahaan se bida hue.
