Vaishnava Samhita. Narayana Muni Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 21 Shloka 1

श्री सद्गुरुरुवाच 

नानाविधां क्रियामेव तन्त्रोक्तं वैदिकीमपि |
वदन्ति वैष्णवाः केचित् पराभक्तिरीति स्फुटम् ||

Shri Sadguru said

Some vaishnavas consider only adherence to a code of Vedic and ttantric rituals as devotion

Vaishnava Samhita. Murari Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 20 Shlokas 30 - 32

रसिकानामीदृशानां विशुद्धप्रेमचेतसाम् | 
बालभावेन युक्तानां सुलभो भगवान् हरिः ||
सुलभा भगवद्भक्तिरेवं निर्मलचेतसाम् |
कठि नैर्नियमैर्लोके भवन्त्येवात्मवञ्चकाः || 
मुररेश्चरितं पुण्यं यः पठेच्छ्रुणुयान्नरः |
तस्य गोविन्दपादाब्जे जायते भक्तिरुत्तमा ||


Shri Bhagavan is easily accessible only to such rasikas who have pious prem and innocence as that of a child. Devotion to Shri Krishna is easily attained by such pure hearted ones. Others in the world are deceiving themselves following hard rules. One who reads the holy story of Murari attains unflinching devotion towards the lotus feet of Shri Govinda.

Thus ends Chapter Twenty entitled 'Murari Charitam' of Book VI of Shri Vaishnava Samhita composed by Shri Shri Krishna Premi Swamigal

श्रीसद्गुरुरुवाच 
इत्युक्त्वा कृष्णमहिषी मुरारिं प्रेमिकं तदा |

रासिक्यं सहजं तस्य पितृ शोकेन पीडितम् |
बृन्दावनं प्राप्तावतः पुनरुज्जृम्भितं बभौ || 

Shri Sadguru continued

Shri Radha, the consort of Shri krishna uttered these sweet words to the loving devotee Murari, gave him that milk and dissapeared. The surprised devotee drank that milk, got relieved of the sorrows of the world and developed true Gopi prem. He attained self-realization due to the mercy of Devi Radha. He roamed about the pleasant Brindavan singing melodiously in praise of Shri krishna, the beloved of Devi Radha. His innate nature as a tru rasika which was lying dormant due to the beareavement of his parents came to the forefront again.

श्रीदेव्युवाच 
वत्स जागृहि सानन्दं पश्य मां जननीं तव |
श्रान्तोसि क्षुच्छ्रेण त्वं पिब क्षीरं महायशः ||
अनेन क्षीरपानेन सर्वं दुःखं विनश्यतु |
वर्धतां प्रेममाधुर्यं बृन्दावनमहीश्वरे || 

Shri Devi said

Get Up, My Child! Look at Me, your Mother cheerfully. You are stricken with hunger. Drink this milk. Let all your sorrows be renewed on drinking this milk. Let your heart be filled with sweet prem towards Shri Krishna, the Prince of the holy Brindavan.

At that time Shri Radha Devi, the Mother of the entire creation appeared there. She, the very embodiment of kindness gave him darshan with a countenance standing on a par with the full moon and surrounded by sweet fragrance. She was clad in an exquisite blue silk and had black shiny hair. Her cheeks were glittering like the mirror, touched by the beautiful dangling ear-rings. She had a lean and beautiful form. Her beauty was powerful enough even to enchant Shri krishna. Giving darshan like this she started speaking in a sweet voice.

क्वचिन्नीतरोर्मूले शिश्ये निष्किञ्चनस्तदा ||

This fortunate man Murari reached the holy Brindavan after travelling through many kingdoms, on foot. Murari, the poor man was tired after these travels. Stricken with hunger and thirst he was lying under a Kadamba tree

Vaishnava Samhita. Murari Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 20 Shlokas 15 - 16

न याचते परान्नं सः क्षुत्क्लान्तजठरोपि च |
अकस्मादेव सम्प्राप्तमन्नमल्पमभक्षयत्  ||
न सल्लापञ्च कुरुते न नृत्यति न गायति |
सदा शोकाकुलमनाः क्वचिच्छिन्ताकुलोवसत् ||

Though tormented by hunger he would never beg for food. If he happened to get anything he would eat it. He gave up dancing, singing and enjoying the company of the adoring women. He used to sit in sorrow and shed tears always.

Vaishnava Samhita. Murari Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 20 Shlokas 13 - 14

अत्रान्तरे तत्पितरौ वृद्धौ कालवशं गतौ |
पितृभ्यां रहितो दीनो दुःखं प्राप सुदुःसहम् ||
सुप्रीतेपि ग्रामजने क्वापि नान्नं प्रयाचते |
यत्र क्वापि स्थितो दीनो बालवत् प्ररुरोद ह ||

Suddenly his aged parents died and Murari was upset. The village folks were affectionate. Yet he did not beg for food. Sitting somewhere he used to weep like a child.

Vaishnava Samhita. Murari Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 20 Shlokas 10 - 12

ताभिः सह सदोद्याने सञ्चरन् कीर्तयन् हरिम् |
अविज्ञातजगद्धर्मो बालवद्रसिको बभौ ||
पवित्रं हृदयं तस्य विज्ञाय ग्रामवासिनः |
न मेनिरे क्वचिद्दोषं तस्मिन् कृष्णैकतां गते ||
विशुद्धप्रेमसल्लापकुतूहलसमन्वितः |
भक्तो मुरारिर्ददृशे मुरारिर्भगवानिव ||  

He used to continue Krishna-kirtan in the company of those women in the gardens. Unmindful of social abuses the true rasika moved about like a child. There seemed to exist no difference between him and Shri Krishna. The people of the village understood him well and hence they did not find fault with him. Thus playing happily with unsullied prem this bhakta Murari appeared to be Bhagavan Murari (Shri Krishna) Himself.

Vaishnava Samhita. Murari Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 20 Shloka 9

राधामुकुन्दयोर्लीलां नित्यं गायतिं वीणया |
तस्येदं कीर्तनं श्रोतुमागच्छन्ति वराङ्गनाः ||

Daily he used to sing songs on the divine pastimes of Shri Radhakrishna, accompanied by a recital on the Veena. Women used to rush to hear his music.

There was a great Krishna bhakta named Murari. He was a devout vaishnava and the beloved of all. He took delight in moving with all without any distinctions. He had unbound true love for all and was endowed with all desirable qualities like innocence, compassion and courage. He was an adept in music and poetry. He was blemishless, young , handsome and was a rasika pure at heart.

श्री सद्गुरुरुवाच 
कृष्णमाधुर्यमग्नानां रसिकानां महात्मनाम्  |
लोकवेदकुलाचारे तीव्रता न हि विद्यते ||
न द्वेषो वैदिकाचारे नानुरागोपि विद्यते |
कृष्णानुरागमुग्धानां रसिकानां महात्मनाम् ||
बालभावेन युक्तानां समानां स्तुतिनिन्दयोः |

तथा प्रवर्तते भक्तो यथैव हृदि रोचते |
सङ्कल्परहिता भक्ताःकृष्णसङ्कल्पवर्तिनः ||

Shri Sadguru said
Those great rasikas who are immersed in the ocean of the sweetness of Krishna consciousness have no deep affinity towards the Vedic and worldly performances. The great ones who are engrossed in Shri Krishna prem are true rasikas and they have no liking or dislike towards Vedic rituals. The true rasikas endowed with child-like innocence and equanimity are not afraid of the world or Vedic rules. The devotees dance to the tune of Shri Krishna and act according to His decisions, not bothering to decide upon things on their own

Vaishnava Samhita. Premanidhi Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 19 Shlokas 28 - 31

यस्य ते नित्यकैङ्कर्यं कामयन्ते शिवादयः |
स त्वं मम कृपासिन्धो मार्गदर्शी बभूविथ ||
यस्य ते चरनांभोजं साक्षात्कामयते रमा |
स त्वं मय्येव कारुन्यात्कण्टकेष्वपि जग्मिथ ||

श्रीसद्गुरुरुवाच 
भक्तस्तु प्रलपन्नेवं बाष्पपूरितलोचनः |
तच्च संस्मृत्य संस्मृत्य वालरूपं रमापतेः ||
तत्कृपासदृशीं भक्तिं प्रार्थयन्नपि माधवे |
चकार पूजां कृष्णस्य नित्योत्सवपरायणः ||

Even those like Lord Shiva long to get the fortune of serving You eternally. But You came as my guide. Devi Lakshmi Herself affectionately tends Your holy feet. But You walked on the thorny path with those feet with such great love for me. Thus that good bhakta Premanidhi recalled that youthful form of Shripati again and again and shed tears of bhakti. He repeatedly prayed to Shri Madhava to bestow upon him bhakti equal to His immeasurable mercy. As he had the intermittent pooja of Shri Krishna as the only object of his life he continued to remain engaged in worshiping Shri Krishna

Thus ends Chapter Nineteen entitled 'Premanidhi Charitam' of Book VI of Shri Vaishnava Samhita composed by Shri Shri Krishna Premi Swamigal

प्रेमनिधिरुवाच 
हन्त नन्दकुमार त्वं ब्रह्मादिसुरदुर्लभः |
कृतवानसि कारुण्यं मयि दीने समाकुले ||
साक्षाद् दृष्ट्वापि गोविन्द विचित्राद्भुतचेष्टितम् |
न जाने तव माहात्म्यमेवं सौलभ्यमोहितः ||

Premanidhi lamented

Alas! Nandakumara! You are unattainable even to the devas like Brahma. What a lot of mercy You have showered on Me who do not deserve it! Govinda! Even when I had the darshan of Your miraculous leela face to face, I did not realize Your glory as I was deluded by Your modesty.

Vaishnava Smhita. Premanidhi Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 19 Shlokas 23 - 25

विचित्र केलिर्बालोsयं परमाद्भुतदर्शनः |

विज्ञाय तं जगन्नाथं भक्तवत्सलमच्युतम् |
प्ररुदत्प्रेमसंपूर्णो भक्तञ्च स्वगृहं गतः ||   

This handsome boy does such a miraculous job and showers mercy on me. Is he my beloved God Almighty? The moment Premanidhi had this flash, that child ran with musical sound produced by his anklets and vanished. Premanidhi realized that the child was only the Lord of the worlds and the lover of the bhaktas. Reaching his home he started crying.

Vaishnava Samhita. Premanidhi Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 19 Shlokas 21 - 22

प्रवृत्तोपि महावर्षे तस्योल्का न प्रशाम्यति |
धाराणामन्तरे चोल्कां भ्रामयन् स हि गच्छति ||
चात्तुर्यं तस्य बालस्य त्वन्यबालकदुर्लभम् |
अवलोक्य प्रेमनिधिश्चाश्चर्यचकितोsभवत् ||

Even while it was a heavy down pour, the flame of his torch did not get extinguished, He was rotating playfully that torch in the midst of the pouring rain-drops. Finding this shrewdness and courage of the boy, unusual in the children of that age, Premanidhi was shivering with astonishment.

Vaishnava Samhita. Premanidhi Charitam. Vol III Book VI Chp 19 Shlokas 19 - 20

मार्गादपगतस्तत्र कण्टकेषु चरन् पतन् |
न प्रप्प क्लेशलेशञ्च यमुनाजलमुद्वहन् ||
तत्रैव बालकः कश्चिद्पूर्णचन्द्रसमाननः |
उल्कामादाय हस्तेन मार्गं शुद्धमदर्शयत् ||

He could not walk steadily and fell down many times on the thorny and slushy path. He was not at all perturbed while walking with great difficulty holding the pot of Yamuna water in his hand. At that time there came a young boy with a lustrous face resembling the full-moon. With the torch in his hand he showed the right way to the bhakta.
