(Raga Gauri - Athatal)
Kaha Bhayau Vrindavanhi Basai.
Jaulagi Vyapata Maya Taulagi Kaha Gharaten Nikasai. [1]
Dhan Mewa Kau Mandir Sevat, Karat Kothari Vishe Rasai.
Koti Koti Dandavat Karai Kaha, Bhoomi Lilat Ghasai. [2]
Munh Meethe, Mann Seethe Kapati, Vachan Rachan Nainani Vihasai.
Mantra Thagori Kabahu Na Tantra Gad, Maanat Vishay Dasai. [3]
Kanchan Haath Na Chhuvat Kamandal, Mai Milaya Vilasai.
Vyasa Lobh Rati Hari Haridasan, Paramarthahi Khasai. [4]
- Shri Hariram Vyas, Vyas Vani, Purvardh (262)
What distinguishes residing in Vrindavan is often misunderstood, as genuine renunciation is lacking when one remains entangled in greed and hypocrisy. [1]
Some greedy people living in Vrindavan describe themselves as the servants of the temple, but they exploit the wealth of the innocent devotees, all the while indulging in sensory pleasures and building extravagant homes. They outwardly display devotion by performing elaborate prostrations [‘Dandavatas’] rubbing their foreheads to the ground, time and again. [2]
Such hypocrites deceive others with their sweet words hiding their deceitful intentions. They cheat others through the web of words, eyes, and sweet smiles. Despite being ensnared by worldly illusions themselves, they attempt to mislead others by bestowing mantra initiations. [3]
These hypocrites go to great lengths to avoid even touching money, but instead use their ‘Kamandalas’ [vessels]. Despite their self-proclaimed servitude to Hari and their residence in Vrindavan, their behavior reveals a significant disconnect from true spiritual enlightenment. [4]
