narasi mehata gujarat ke ek bahut b de shrikrishn bhakt ho gaye haian. unake bhajan aj bhi n keval gujarat mean, balki sare bharat mean b di shraddha aur adar ke sath gaye jate haian. unaka janm kathiyava d ke joonagadh shahar mean b danagara jati ke nagar-brahman-kul mean hua tha. bachapan mean hi unhean kuchh sadhuoan ka satsang prapt hua, jisake phalasvaroop unake hriday mean shrikrishn bhakti ka uday hua. ve nirantar bhakt-sadhuoan ke sath rahakar shrikrishn aur gopiyoan ki lila ke git gane lage. dhire-dhire bhajan-kirtan mean hi unaka adhikaansh samay bitane laga. yah bat unake parivar valoan ko pasand nahian thi. unhoanne inhean bahut samajhaya, par koee labh n hua. ek din inaki bhaujaee ne tana marakar kaha - ‘aisi bhakti um di hai to bhagavan se milakar kyoan nahian ate?’ is tane ne narasi par jadoo ka kam kiya. ve ghar se usi kshan nikal p de aur joonagadh se kuchh door shri mahadev ji ke purane mandir mean jakar vahaan shri shankar ji ki upasana karane lage. kahate haian, unaki pooja se prasann ho kar bhagavan shankar unake samane prakat hue aur unhean bhagavan shrikrishn ke golok mean le jakar gopiyoan ki ras lila ka adbhat drishy dikhalaya. ve golok ki lila ko dekh kar mugdh ho gaye.

tapasya poori kar ve ghar aye aur apane bal-bachchoan ke sath alag rahane lage. parantu keval bhajan-kirtan mean lage rahane ke karan b de kasht ke sath unaki grihasthi ka kam chalata. stri ne koee kam karane ke liye unhean bahut kaha, parantu narasiji ne keaee doosara kam karana pasand nahian kiya. unaka dridh vishvas tha ki shrikrishn mere sare duahkhoan aur abhavoan ko apane-ap door kareange. hua bhi aisa hi. kahate haian, unaki putri ke vivah mean jitane rupaye aur any samagriyoan ki jaroorat p di, sab bhagavan ne unake yahaan pahuanchayi tatha svayan mandap mean upasthit ho kar sare kary sampann kiye. isi tarah putr ka vivah bhi bhagavatkripa se sampann ho gaya.

kahate haian narasi mehata ki jati ke log unhean bahut tang kiya karate the. ek bar un logoan ne kaha ki apane pita ka shraddh karake sari jati ko bhojan karao. narasiji ne apane bhagavan ka smaran kiya aur shraddh ke liye sara saman jut gaya. shraddh ke din ant mean narasiji ko maloom hua ki kuchh ghi ghat gaya hai. ve ek bartan lekar bajar ghi lane ke liye gaye. raste mean unhoanne ek sant mandali ko b de prem se hari kirtan karate dekha. bas, narasiji usamean shamil ho gaye aur apana kam bhool gaye. ghar mean brahman-bhojan ho raha tha, unaki patni b di utsukata se unaki bat jo rahi thi. bhakt vatsal bhagavan narasi ka roop dharan kar ghi lekar ghar pahuanche. brahman-bhojan ka kary sucharu roop se poora hua. bahut der bad kirtan band hone par narasiji ghi lekar vapas aye aur apani patni se der ke liye kshama maangane lage. stri ashchary sagar mean doob gayi.

putr-putri ka vivah ho jane par narasiji bahut kuchh nishchit ho gaye aur adhik utsah se bhajan-kirtan karane lage. kuchh varshoan bad ek-ek karake inaki stri aur putr ka dehant ho gaya.
