Enshrine lovingly the lotus feet of Svāmī Śrī Haridāsa Jī, the incarnation of Lalitā Sakhī, within the sacred abode of your heart, and then serve the divine Couple of fair and dark complexion as per your loving sentiments, without any hesitation.
My life in this world has found true fulfillment, for the supreme Śrī Nityavihāriṇī Jū, Śrī Rādhā Herself, has become the very source of my life. By attaining Śyāmā Pyārī, the crest-jewel of rasikas, I have attained the highest bliss.
Śrī Harirāma Vyāsa Jī, through deep contemplation among the assembly of rasikas in Śrī Vṛndāvana Dhāma, concluded that there is no path equal to the uninterrupted nitya-vihāra upāsanā of the divine couple, revealed by the incomparable master, Śrī Svāmī Haridāsa Jī. This path, in which the couple is exclusively and unceasingly worshipped in the state of their intimate love-plays, is utterly unparalleled.
Before creation began, and even after the universe dissolves, the one eternal and unchanging realm upon Earth remains Śrī Vṛndāvan Dham. Those who dwell there ceaselessly, without any offenses, are dearly loved by Śrī Swāmī Haridās Jī Mahārāj, who bestows upon them the supreme nectar of the eternal love-plays (nitya-vihāra-rasa) of Priyā Priyatama.
Some describe Lord’s form as Vaikunthanath, some despicable Him as ‘Brahma’ (impersonal). Others describe Him as Lord of Ayodhya, Shri Ram, while some proclaim Him as Lord Shri Krishna.
The supreme love-dharma of Swami Sri Haridas ji, the continuous and exclusive devotion to the eternal love-plays (nitya-vihara-rasa) of the Divine Couple (Sri Radha Krishn), stands like a Mount Sumeru. In comparison to this, all other various practices appear as insignificant as small hills.
Associates of Shri Swami Haridas Ji are renowned worldwide for transcending societal norms and Vedic rituals, remaining wholly immersed in the eternal love-play (Nityavihar) of the divine couple, Sri Shyama Kunjbihari, with unwavering devotion.
Whether a person or object arrives, it brings us no joy; whether a person or thing departs, it brings us no sorrow. Shri Lalit Kishori Dev says this is because our minds remain absorbed in the Nitya Vihara of Shyama Kunjbihari, the fair and dark couple.
The blessed souls who dwell in Shri Vrindavan with unwavering devotion, never leaving its boundaries even for a moment, share an unbreakable bond of love with Shri Priyaji (Shri Radha). They tenderly fondle the divine couple, Shri Radha and Krishna, fulfilling their loving desires effortlessly.
The supreme among Rasikas, Kunj Biharini Shri Ladli Ju (Shri Radha), always remains near us. Thus, residing in the Kunj palace, we perpetually gaze upon Her eternal play, ‘Keli’.
Those who are true connoisseurs of nectar (Rasikas), remain free from worldly attachment, hatred, or bodily pride because they always remain devoted solely to their beloved, Shri Priya Ju (Shri Radha), through their loving bhava (sentiments).
Every happiness effortlessly comes to those favored by Shri Kunjbiharini Ladli Ju [Shri Radha]. Everyone acknowledges the fact that the divine love of the personal palace of the couple cannot be attained without the grace of Shri Radha.
My beloved Kunj Biharini Ju [Shri Radha] has infused my heart with supreme love, dispelling all ignorance that once clouded my body, mind, and words.
Both Shri Kunjbiharini Ju [Radha] and Shri Swami Haridasji [Lalita incarnation] are one and the same, and both eternally dwell in the blissful realm of divine love (‘Nitya Vihar Ras’).
One can effortlessly attain the supreme ‘Nitya Vihar’ (eternal love-play) of the divine couple Shri Radha Krishn by surrendering to Rasik Shiromani Swami Haridas, and by doing so, Nitya Vihariniju [Radha] keeps that soul in Her heart forever like a garland.
Neither I desire Vaikuntha (Abode of Lord Vishnu), Nor ‘Brahmananda’ (bliss of impersonal form of God). Neither do I desire Lord Ram (the perfect man), nor the charming son of Nand, Lord Krishn. [1]
The aspirants whose words and actions are non-different (i.e. they follow what they preach), will definitely obtain their object of worship, even if they remain awake or asleep.
Those devotees whose essence of life is none other than Shri Kunj Biharini [Sri Radha], if they die they are blessed with immense happiness, and as long as they live, they remain engrossed in performing Her bhajan blissfully, day and night.
O Lāḍilī! Please remove all my ignorance and shortcomings, and bless me with perfect wisdom. O Śrī Kiśorī Jī, the very source of my life, this rests entirely in Your hands and is effortless for You. Apart from You, no one else can accomplish it.
I shall follow the very path upon which my revered Guru has walked. Apart from the path of rasa-upāsanā taught by Svāmī Haridāsa Jī, I place not the slightest faith in any other doctrine or spiritual path found in this world.
