  • Lord In Danger (Sri Govindadev ji) | Vrindavana to Jaipur | Rupa Gosvami | HG Maha Vishnu Dasa
    Rupa gosvami and Sri Radha Govindadeva
    Srila Rupa Goswami was so completely committed to fulfilling the orders Lord Chaitanya had given him that he and Sanatana roamed throughout Vrindavan to reveal and excavate the holy places of Krishna's important pastimes. But still Rupa Goswami was not happy. One day he sat on the banks of the Yamuna in an ocean of lamentation because he could not find Sri Govindadeva, the prominent deity of Vrindavan. The scriptures revealed that this deity was installed by Vajranabh, the great-grandson of Lord Krishna and it was somewhere in Vrindavan. He was hidden. Rupa Goswami searched everywhere, he studied many books, he was desperately looking for the Govinda deity, because he knew it was Lord Caitanya's desire. He went here and there, he even went to the houses of practically all the Vrajavasi's to see if Govinda-deva was being worshipped in any of them. But despite all his attempts Govinda-deva did not reveal Himselt. Rupa Goswami would sit day after day on the bank of the Yamuna in lamentation, praying to the Lord, "Please reveal to me where you are hiding".
    One day a Vrajavasi came and sat beside Srila Rupa Goswami. This Vrajavasi was a beautiful cowherd boy. He asked Rupa Goswami, "Why do you look so sad?" Rupa Goswami was attracted by the beauty and the charm of this child, his heart was filled with ecstasy. He began to explain," I have searched everywhere, but 1 cannot fulfil my Lord's desire, to establish the worship of Govinda-deva.". The little cowherd boy replied, "Do not be in distress. There is a very spiritual place, called 'Gomatill' and everyday a beautiful cow comes to that place and lets down her milk on the ground. Under the spot where the cow is making the offering, is the deity of Govinda-deva. Previously, Moslem conquerors came to this place and so the deity was hidden under the ground. Come, I will show you that place".
    And the beautiful little cowherd boy took Srila Rupa Goswami to 'Gomatill' and then he disappeared. Rupa Goswami understood who this cowherd boy was, and in great ecstasy of love he fell unconscious. After a long time, he came back to his consciousness and began to cry. Then he understood his mission, and he told several Vrajavasis, "Let us carefully dig in this place, Govinda-deva is here". They began to dig in the ground, carefully. After sometime they unearthed the beautiful deity of Govinda, whose beauty was more charming than millions and millions of Kandarpas (Cupids). The news spread and hundreds and thousands of people, mostly Vrajavasis, gathered there to celebrate the appearance of Sri Govinda-deva. When the news spread, Srila Rupa Goswami became much admired, loved and worshipped by all the Vraiavasis of Sri Vrajadham. He was very satisfied. He sent a letter to Lord Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, explaining how Govinda-deva had revealed Himself to him.
    When Lord Chaitanya heard" that Sri Sri Radha Govinda-deva had appeared again, He was in ecstasy. He confidentially spoke to all of his devotees about this, and told Kashishwar Pandit about the discovery of Govindadeva and instructed him, "1 want you to go to Vrindavan and assist Rupa Goswami in the service of Govinda-deva." Kashishwar Pandit, When he heard the order, his heart was broken with the thought of separation from Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. He said, "My Lord, I cannot bear leaving Puri and going anywhere else." Then Lord Chaitawya, just to satisfy His devotee, gave Kashishwar Pandit a beautiful, small deity of Himself. It was the deity of Krishna and Lord Chaitanya together in one form and Lord Chaitanya carefully explained how Kashishwara Pandit should worship it. Lord Chaitanya personally gave Him the name- 'Gaur-Govinda'. Kashishwara Pandit took that deity to Vrindavan and installed Him on the right hand side of Sri Govinda-deva.
    Later when Aurangzeb attacked Vrindavana, their soldiers were destroying the temple, they had demolished almost 5 floors and then there was a thunderous noise which shook the ground. The soldiers in fear of their lives fled the scene. In the meantime, the original deities are shifted to Jaipur by Jai Singh to protect them from the muslim invaders. Later the king had a dream in which he was kicked out of his bed and was instructed that the building in which he was staying would be the Lord’s new residence. Next morning when the king woke up on the floor, he arranged for the deities to be installed in his palace and he moved to a building opposite the temple.
