wanted to be in Vrindavan with the Lord but, she was
unable to. Hence, to fulfil her wish it is believed that
Bihari ji moved to the princess palace and left his
temple.
Further, the idol of Bihari ji was reinstalled in the
temple. And, to prevent such things in future, a curtain
was introduced between the devotees and the idol.
This may be an old event, but today also, priests draw
this sustain after some intervals to break the spell that
Bihari ji's beauty casts on devotees. The curtain
ensures that the no one can look at the Lord for a long
time at a stretch and can't be overpowered by the
divine love.
The Story Behind 'Sri Vigraha' of Sri
Radhavallabh
This is one of the most divine places in Vrindavan.
When Harivansh Mahaprabhu set out on the road to
Vrindavan and had reached Charthawal, he stayed
one night. At that night, he received a divine
command from :Sri Radha" in a dream. She said:
"You will meet a Brahman who possesses my replica.
Marry his two daughters and take this replica to
Vrindavan to worship." On the other hand, she (Sri
Radha) gave a similar dream to Atmadeva Brahman.
He was the person whose ancestors had performed
penance at Mount Kailash while worshipping Lord
Shiva. Due to that Lord Shiva became pleased and
blessed Atmadeva's ancestors with his desired wish
that was to gift him shiva's most cherished thing. To
fulfil that desire, Lord Shiva gave him the idol of 'Sri
Radha Vallabh ji Maharaj' his heart and told him the
method of its service.
Further, Harisvansh Mahaprabhu got that idol from
the Brahman and established 'Sri Vigraha' of Sri
Radhavallabh on the bank of Yamuna River in
Vrindavan.
Conclusion
Though, as no one is allowed in the premises after
evening aarti, it may take longer to come face to face
with the reality. Therefore till this day, the mystery is
not solved completely so we have to quench our thirst
with the above facts.
No wonder, Nidhivan Vrindavan is one mysterious
place which catches the attention of all kinds of
travelers from all over the world. However, it seems it is
still one destination that awaits more exploration, and
it looks impossible to learn more about this place that
easily !
In all, Vrindavan indeed proves to be The Land of Lord !
