Śrī Vṛndāvana Dhāma is supremely confidential, transcendental, and difficult to attain even for the celestial beings. How then can one who is devoid of devotion and bereft of spiritual fortune hope to gain residence there?
Devotees are of many kinds, and their devotional moods and spiritual aspirations vary accordingly. But those exclusive devotees who are rasikas of the divine nikunjas of Śrī Vṛndāvana's eternal Couple find no joy in anything apart from the divine couple's nitya vihara.
Those who abandon the sacred dust of Vṛndāvana out of selfish motives and depart for other places are, as it were, expelled from this transcendental land because they lack the qualification to remain there.
Without the association of rasika saints, the mind can never be brought under control—just as iron can never be transformed into gold without the touch of the precious pārasa (philosopher's stone).
Śrī Dhruvadāsa Jī cautions the mind: “O mind! Meditate day and night only upon the lotus feet of Śrī Lāḍilī-Lāl, and never allow anyone else to enter the path of your exclusive devotion.”
Śrī Hita Dhruvadāsa Jī says that the essence of all devotional worship is the bhajana of the eternal love-play, i.e., the nitya vihāra of the ever-youthful Divine Couple, Śrī Śyāmā-Śyāma.
May this vision of the ever-youthful Śrī Rādhā forever remain enshrined within my eyes: that She is walking through the dense creeper-groves of Vṛndāvana, resting Her delicate, creeper-like arm around the neck of Her beloved Śrī Kṛṣṇa.
Those immersed in Vṛndāvana's bliss—Yugala Rasa—who adore the Divine Couple Śrī Śyāma Śyāma, cast not even a glance toward Vaikuṇṭha's pleasures.
The rasika devotee in whose heart the ever-youthful Śrī Lāḍilī-Lāl, eternally resides, no longer retains any special attraction even for Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s childhood or boyhood pastimes. His heart remains wholly absorbed in the eternally youthful form of the divine Couple.
Even if a person has accumulated only virtuous deeds throughout his life, even the tiniest (subtle) offense committed against the exclusive devotees of Śrī Hari can turn all his merit to ash in an instant.
Chant the glories of ever young Divine Couple and remember the unique tendency of love and bliss adopted by the Rasiks of Vrindavan. Remember, by following the footsteps of Rasiks, One can obtain the ultimate bliss of Vrindavan (Vrindavan Ras), as the false body is depreciating day by day.
The purpose of bhajana is to awaken the soul’s realization that true fulfillment cannot be found in the fleeting material world, leading it to surrender completely to Śrī Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa with absolute faith and dependence.
The sole means of attaining Vṛndāvana-rasa is the association of rasika saints and complete surrender at their feet. Apart from this, the attainment of that divine Vṛndāvana-rasa is absolutely impossible through any other practice, method, or endeavor.
