DESCENT OF RADHA KRISHNA TO GOLAK DHAM BRINDABAN

NARD CLEARED BASUDEV’S DOUBTS

Basudev interrupted Nard’s talk and said, “Oh muni, it is easy to say “yes I will do it, but it is not always easy to work it out in practice.” The Yajna and alms giving to all the inhabitants of the three loks, including birds, animals, and others living things are so enormous that having just a high aspiration is not enough to carry it out successfully.

To give full contentment to such an ambition we need a complex set of supports in how the organisation is led, structured, and staffed. We need the right people working in them who can think and act.

In the first place, we need someone who is very capable of planning, arranging, and managing the project. Secondly, it requires a colossal amount of liquid asset. In these respects, the whole enterprise is beyond my means. To begin with, oh great muni, would you be so kind as to tell me where I can find such a place that is so vast to accommodate all these guests, and which is also a Tirth.

Nard apprised Basudev. “There is a place called Prabas. It is a Tirth. The place is very capacious and sweeping. It is also known as Kurukshetra in the world. Saraswati river runs through it. It is so vast that I have no idea how many yuthak it would be in its breadth and length. But the place will easily accommodate everyone from the three loks.”

Nard gave Basudev further advice, “ Apart from trust and integrity on your personality, it is of paramount importance that you welcome and satisfy these guests with good food. So, you must plan to procure all these commodities, and make an inventory of all the items that would be needed for such a big yajna, well in advance and in sufficient quantities.”
