DIVYA AZAD
The Vrindavan Parkat Utsav and Shrimad Bhagwat Katha program being organized at the Mela Ground of Sector 34 under the aegis of Shri Krishna Priya Ju Sankirtan Mandal concluded with great pomp.
World famous Katha Vyas Param Pujya Shri Indresh Maharaj, while describing Vrindavan in the story narration on the seventh day i.e. the rest day of Shrimad Bhagwat Katha, expressed Uddhav Maharaj’s feelings towards Vrindavan. He told that Uddhav Maharaj asked the Lord to come to Vrindavan in the form of a tree in the next birth, because when the dust of the feet of the people of Braj will fly on me in the form of a plant, then I will be happy in that. He told that even gods and goddesses yearn to come to Vrindavan.
Indresh Maharaj Ji infused the essence of Vrindavan in the air and memory of Chandigarh through the narration of the 7-day Shrimad Bhagwat Katha. Maharaj Ji said that today is the rest day of the Katha and my mind is here in Chandigarh. It feels as if I am leaving Vrindavan. He said that this land of Sector 34, where the Katha was held and many revered saints have visited here, is not an ordinary land, it is the blessing of Giriraj. He told the city residents that now whenever you people pass by Sector 34, you must bow down to this land.
Today, on the last day of the Katha, Devi Chitralekha, Dhirendra Krishna Shastri, (also known as Bageshwar Dham Sarkar or Maharaj), Bhajan singer Chitra Vichitra, Kirtidaan Gadhvi from Gujarat participated in the program and delighted the devotees with their bhajans. Bageshwar Sarkar made the devotees dance by singing Radha Ras.
The organisers of this huge Bhagwat Katha, famous Bollywood singers B Prak and Munish Bajaj thanked the people of Chandigarh for attending the event and promised to organise such a programme again soon.
