गोकुल में शिव

ek bar bhagavan shankar ke man mean bhi vishnu ke bal svaroop ke darshan karane ki ichchha huee. bhadrapad shukl paksh dvadashi ke din bhagavan shankar alakh jagate hue gokul mean ae. shiv dvar par akar kh de ho ge. tabhi nand ke bhavan se ek dasi shiv ke pas aee aur kahane lagi ki- "yashodaji ne ye bhiksha bheji hai, ise svikar kar lean aur lala ko ashirvad de dean."

shiv bole- "maian bhiksha nahian looanga, mujhe kisi bhi vastu ki apeksha nahian hai, mujhe to balakrishn ke darshan karana hai."

dasi ne yah samachar yashodaji ke pas pahuancha diya.

bhagavan shiv ne avaz lagaee- "ari meeya! dikha de mukh lal ka, tere palane mean, palanahar dikha de mukh lal ka."

maan yashoda ne khi daki se bahar dekhakar kah diya ki "lala ko bahar nahian laooangi. tumhare gale mean sarp hai, jise dekhakar mera lala dar jaega."

shiv bole- "mata tera kanhaiya to kal ka kal hai, brahm ka brahm hai. vah kisi se nahian dar sakata, use kisi ki bhi kudrishti nahian lag sakati aur vah to mujhe pahachanata hai.

yashodaji bolian- "kaisi batean kar rahe haian ap? mera lala to nanha-sa hai, ap hath n karean."

shiv ne kaha- "tere lala ke darshan kie bina maian yahaan se nahian hatooanga. maian yahian samadhi laga looanga."

bal kanhaiya ne bhi yah jan liya ki shivaji padhare haian aur mata unhean vahaan le nahian le ja rahi haian aur shiv darshan n milane par samadhi laga leange. bal kanhaiya bhali prakar janate the ki bhole baba ki samadhi lag gee to hazaroan varsh ke bad hi khulegi to unhoanne zor se rona shuroo kar diya.

jab kanhaiya kisi bhi prakar chup nahian hue to yashodaji ko laga ki sachamuch ve yogi paramatapasvi haian. yashodaji balakrishn ko bahar lekar aeean. shiv ne socha ki ab to kanhaiya mere pas aeange hi. unhoanne balakrishn ke darshan karake pranam kiya, kintu itane se hi unaki tripti nahian huee. ve balakrishn ko apani god mean lena chahate the. shiv yashodaji se bole ki- "tum balak ke bhavishy ke bare mean poochhati ho, yadi ise meri god mean diya jae to maian isake hathoan ki rekha achchhi tarah se dekh looanga. yashoda ne balakrishn ko shiv ki god mean rakh diya. shiv ki god mean ate hi balakrishn khilakhila kar hans p de. ve yogi ke roop mean aye hue shiv ke kabhi gal noanchate to kabhi unaki b di-b di dadhi ke keshoan ko khianchate.
