## English whole-pad meaning
A maiden of Braja reports to Mother Yashodā, “A yogi has been sloganeering ‘Alakha, Alakha’ at your door. His forehead is beautified with the moon; a garland of human-skulls is dangling from his neck and the Ganges is flowing on his head. He is the enemy of Kāmadeva; has ornamented his each and every limb with snakes and is attractively fair-complexioned. He introduces himself as ‘Shambhu’ and says that he resides on the Mt. Kailāsha.” Hearing this, Mother Yashodā comes out of the house and after greeting the yogi with pleasure and hospitality, says to him, “Oh yogi with an inauspicious appearance! Today, a tender son with all auspicious signs has taken birth in our home, therefore you can ask for as many thāls full of gems and pearls as you want.” The yogi replied, “Oh Mother! I have renounced the world, I have no desire for worldly things. If you really want to give me alms, then please show me your son once.” Mother Yashodā said, “Oh Yogirāja! This cannot be because my newborn son will be frightened to see your formidable appearance.” The yogi replied, “Oh Mother! Your son is actually the Supreme God with form and attributes.” Mother Yashodā said, “Even if I believe what you say, you still should not be allowed to see my child because you are shouting a slogan ‘Alakha, Alakha’ which means ‘the Supreme God is imperceptible’.” The yogi answered, “Oh Mother, I did not say ‘Alakha’, rather, I said ‘Ā lakha’ which means ‘Come and see the Supreme God with form and attributes’.” The innocent Mother Yashodā hearing the praises of her son, brought Him before the yogi and both, the yogi (Bhagwan Shaṅkara) and Mother Yashodā’s son (Bhagwan Shrī Kṛishṇa), started looking at each other like eternal acquaintances. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says, “We sacrifice our crores of lives on this blissful sweet meeting of Bhagwan Kṛishṇa and Bhagwan Shaṅkara.”

ripu anaṅga prati aṅga bhujaṅgana, raṅga shubhra balihāra
nāṁva shambhu, aru ṭhāṁva batāvata, giri kailāsha majhāra

Hindi meanings are whole-pad meanings from the supplied scan. Five are unavailable. 1009 source-derived English meanings and Roman transliterations are available for Prem Ras Madira, from the supplied English Parts 1 and 2.

## Published-book provenance
This site presents transcriptions and scans of published devotional literature. It does not compose new verses or meanings. OCR errors may remain.
Decorative Madhuri and Bhakti Challenge illustrations were generated with Codex. They are separate from published source text, original scans and publisher artwork. Library covers are individually credited supplied-PDF cover/source-page images or publisher-representative artwork; the pictured cover does not establish edition equivalence. [Library cover provenance](https://radhey.shreyam1008.com.np/content/books/index.json).
Prem Ras Madira is a published work by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj, with a print history preceding this website. The supplied companion Gutka identifies Radha Govind Samiti as publisher and its eighth edition as 15 July 2011 (PDF page 3, printed page II).
The official biography says Prem Ras Madira was published by 1955; a JKP article gives 1960 for its first Hindi publication. These sources disagree, so this collection does not assert a single verified first-publication year. The 2011 date identifies the supplied companion Gutka edition, not the first publication or every scanned edition.
