Yugal Madhuri · Pad 6
dharo mana! yugala mādhurī dhyāna
Original pad by Jagadguru Shri Kripalu Ji Maharaj
English meaning
Oh my mind! Always meditate on the sweet forms of Rādhā and Kṛishṇa alone. Kishorī Jī captivates the heart of Shyāmasundara and Shyāmasundara steals away the heart of Kishorī Jī. Oh my mind! Never think Them to be separate from each other. Although They have two bodies, the life within Them is only one. Yet, according to the principle of the rasikas, Shyāmasundara is the servant in the realm of divine love-sports and always pleases Kishorī Jī in various ways in the bowers. This divine secret cannot be known by anyone else except the rasikas. Jagadguru Shrī Kripālu Jī says, “Only rasikas, who constantly drink this nectar of divine love, know its sweetness showered in the inner bowers.”

dharo mana! yugala mādhurī dhyāna
manamohana-mohini shyāmā aru, mohini-mohana kānha
ina douna kahaṁ vilaga na māniya, dvai dehī ika prāna
pai līlā-vilāsa mahaṁ mohana, anuchara rasika pramāna
rijhavata nita nikuñja shyāmā kahaṁ, marama na saka kou jāna
yaha ‘kripālu’ rasa rasikahiṁ jānata, jo nita kara raha pāna
