Swing pastime of Radha and Krishna



Especially around Varsana villages and Nandagram, there are many beautiful, old, ancient jhulans. A traditional one is just near Varsana. There is a place called Adangar, I from where looking across the valley there IS beautiful hill called Bilasgar. IS


This hill actually an incarnation of Krishna. Krishna cannot stand to be far away from Radharani, so He has incarnated as this hill. Between Varsana and Bilasgar there is a beautiful valley, which comes very near to a place called Sankarikor, the narrow passage.


In the month of Shravan (July-August), it is the custom that girls visit the house of their mother and father. Normally, Radharani stays in Yavad with her so-called mother in law Jatila and sister- in-law Kutila and so-called husband Abhimanyu. But in the Shravan month, she comes to Varsana. Yavad is very close to Nandagram, but Varsana is not. So, Radha and Krishna are very sad because they are far from each other.


One Ekadashi in the month of Shravan, the sakhis took Radharani to the top of Bilasgar where there was a very beautiful jhulan and they began to swing Radharani hoping the cool breezes from the swing will make Her feel better. It was rainy season; the air was very sweet. They were singing different songs, trying to cheer up Radharani, but she was still feeling a little despondent.


Meanwhile, suddenly, they looked down in the valley and they saw some unknown sakhi coming along the path. She had her sari down over her face, no one could recognize this dark gopi coming. She was coming very gently before the swing. Lalita sakhi said: "My dear sister, why are you standing there? You please come and sit with our sakhi on the swing. She is feeling very sad." So the sakhis they took the other gopi by the hand and they sat her down just next to Srimati Radharani on the swing and they began to swing.


You may have guessed who is the dark sakhi. It is Krishna disguised as a sakhi, in order to get Radharani's association! Now He was sitting on the swing with Radharani and His heart began to beat very fast and He suddenly fainted. He fell onto Radharani and immediately all the sakhis came and said: "What happened?! What happened?!" They start pressing her chest, which should normally be very soft but they feel something very hard. They reached under the cloth and pulled out .... Krishna's flute!!


They unmasked the gopi, sprinkled some water on her face and then Radha and Krishna from this Ekadashi upto the full moon they performed the Jhulan Yatra on top of this Hill.
