## English whole-pad meaning

Shrī Kishorī Jī says to Shyāmasundara who is disguised as a lady-tattooist, “Oh Tattooist of līlās! Your beauty puts even veritable Beauty and Adornment to shame. To which village do You belong? What is Your name? Who is Your husband?” The lady-tattooist replied, “I belong to a divine abode, My name is also divine and My husband is a divine man as well.” Kishorī Jī asked further, “What task has brought You in our village then?” The lady-tattooist answered, “I had heard that Your beauty is unequalled in all the three worlds, so the desire to see You has brought Me here and that is why I have disguised Myself as a low-caste woman. Kishorī Jī! What to tell You, I met a wanton man on the way who said to Me, ‘Oh Beloved! Dally with Me.’ Kishorī Jī! Tattooing has been taught to Me by the first man, the Supreme God Himself.” Kishorī Jī said, “Fine, You tattoo Nandanandana’s līlās on every limb of Mine.” After tattooing the desired līlās, the lady-tattooist, feeling languid with joy, fell in Kishorī Jī’s lap in a swoon, saying, “Hā Bhānudulārī!” In the words of Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī, seeing the flute hidden in the lady-tattooist’s blouse, the friends of Shrī Rādhā recognised that She was none else but that same trickster, Shyāmasundara.

For Prem Ras Madira, the publisher states 1,008 pads in 21 Madhuris. The imported source identities are preserved; numbering reconciliation is deferred. 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. Roman text follows that edition; source wording can differ from the independently preserved Hindi scan. Each record identifies its translation source and PDF/printed pages. Unavailable translations remain explicitly marked; English navigation alone is not a translation. Text may contain OCR errors. This export does not grant a redistribution license.

## 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.
