deh tyag

sharir chho dane se pandrah-bis din pahale hi gvariya baba ne apane is dham ko chho dane ki bat logoan se kah di aur agrah kiya- "meri shok-sabha mere samane hi mana lo." b di kathinaee se baba ko log samajha paye ki unake rahate aisi amangalapoorn yojana karane ka sahas koee kar nahian pata. "mera koee smarak n rakha jay, koee charit n likha jay." yah baba ka adesh tha. nashvar sharir ki smriti rakhi jay, yah unhean bilakul svikar nahian tha. unhoanne sharir chho date samay bhagavan ke mandir se aya hua bhagavan ka charanamrit tatha santoan ka charanamrit lene ke liye hi mukh khola. us samay unake sharir ko shithil dekhakar kuchh logoan ne aushadh dena chaha, par aushadh ke liye baba ne mukh khola hi nahian. jaisi gvariya baba ki ichchha thi, unaka sharir vrindavan ke pramukh mandiroan ke samane se hokar nikala gaya. mandiroan se us nity-sakha ki deh ke satkar ke liye mala, chandan adi prasad aya. is prakar sabhi pramukh mandiroan ka prasad lekar vah deh vanshivat ke samip shriyamunaji ki god mean visarjit kar diya gaya.

sabase ashchary ki bat yah rahi ki vrindavan ke ek bangali d aauktar kahian bahar gaye the. ve baba ke sharir chho dane ke do-tin din bad aye aur ek sant se kahane lage- "maianne suna tha ki gvariya baba keval brajavasiyoan ke ghar hi prasad lete haian; par aj pratah ve mere yahaan aye aur maangakar doodh pi gaye haian." jab d aauktar ko bataya gaya ki baba ka sharir tin din poorv hi chhoot chuka hai, tab ve is par b di kathinaee se vishvas kar sake. isi prakar apane ek shraddhalu ko baba ne svapn mean darshan diya aur bataya- "maian tumhean bhagavan ke pas le ane aooanga." vah vyakti bimar tha, par svapn dekhakar svasth ho gaya. nishchit tithi ko usaka sharir sahasa hi chhoot gaya. shrigvariya baba vrindavan ke is pichhale samay ke sabase prasiddh santoan mean hue haian. unhoanne apani masti se keval ek shiksha di hai ki ‘shribrajarajakumar keval bhav ke vash haian. jo jis bhav se unhean apana man le, bhav dridh ho to ve usake usi sambandh ko sarvatha saty svikar kar lete haian.’
