SREE KRISHNAMRUTAM

Murali Krishna with Radha Rani

What is the substance that gives sweetness to sugar..? Or which part of sugar is sweet and which part is not sweet...? It is a common knowledge that every thing in sugar is sweet or it's the nature of sugar to be sweet. Like-wise, Krishna is the personification of Sweetness. His Charanamrutam itself is sweet so His Padams must be sweet indeed. And from the Padam to the Thiru Mudi all the parts of Krishna are sweet and hence it is the Nature of the Lord to be sweet always. Or Madhuram is the swaroopam of Sri Krishna . So it is not surprising that Sri Vallabhacharyaji Maharaj has found that Krishna's Adharam is sweet,Vadanam is sweet,or Nayanam is sweet. Krishna's Adharam is not only sweet, but also it is Amrutam, that is why the Gopies of Vrindavanam were longing for His Adharamrutam and Krishna's Flute (Sanika) was always drinking Krishna's Adharamrutam. Sri Vallabhacharyaji Maharaj was trying to find out which part of Krishna is not sweet while listing each and every Angam of Sri Krishna, but concluded each and every Stanza of his Madhurashtakam saying that the whole world created by Krishna is Sweet,because it was created by Sri Krishna by His own parts and the whole of Krishna is Madhuram.
"Adharam Madhuram Vadanam Madhuram
Nayanam Madhuram Hasitham Madhuram
Hrudayam Madhuram Gamanam Madhuram
Madhuradhipatherakhilam Madhuram "
When we get our wishes fulfilled we consider it is sweet and we do get our prayers answered by Lord Krishna just by the Kadaksham of His and it is but natural that Krishna's Nayanams (eyes) are sweet. His Heart is so Kind that even though He knows that we are going to Him with all the Sins perpetuated by us He has a soft feeling for us and He showers His Karuna for us, is not the Heart sweet..? His birth place is also Madhura and no wonder the whole of Universe is made by Krishna and hence Sweet.
"Vachanam Madhuram Charitham Madhuram
Vasanam Madhuram Valitham Madhuram
Chalitham Madhuram Bramitham Madhuram
Madhuradhipatherakhilam Madhuram"
Arjuna will vouch for Krishna's Vachanam as he has seen through out the Bhagawath Geetha, though the Geetha contained Karma Yoga,Gnana Yoga and Bhakthi Yoga all in the form of Upadesam how sweetly it was told to Arjuna by the Lord. And even in the case of Ashwathama when Krishna told Arjuna..." Brahma bandur Na Hanthavya Aathathayee Vadharhana:
Mayaivo abaya mamnatham Paripahya Anusasanam" ............How sweet !!!!
All the Bala Leelas of Krishna from the Poothana Moksham at the age of 7 days , Shakada Bamgam and Trinavarta Moksham before the age of 3 months, Navaneetha Chora Leelas at the age of only 18 months,and the Viswa Roopa Darshanam for Mother Yasoda and the Brahma's Leela and Kaliya Mardanam and the Indra Mana Bangam and the Govardhanodhharanam,to say a few are all sweets in each one of them. In fact the whole Charitham of Krishna is Sweet. And the Chalitham,of Bange Bihari is sweet as He is the "Natavara Vapu:" He is the Natana Priyan so, as He walks the sweetness of His chalanam is apparent. When the Universe created by Him is sweet each and every movement of Him is naturally sweet.
"Venur Madhuro Renur Madhura:
Panir Madhura: Padau Madhurao
Nrutyam Madhuram Sagyam Madhuram
Madhura adhipathe rakhilam Madhuram"
In the Venugeetham the environment is described as the "Sharat Swacha Jalam Padmakara Sugandhina" which is self explanatory and tells the sweetness of the area. And when in such an atmosphere,Krishna with "Barhapeedam Natavara Vapu: Karnayor Karnikaram........Rantran Venor Adhara Sudhaya poorayan gopavrindair...." starts His Venu Geetham the Music coming out of His Flute has to be sweet,nothing but sweet.
The streets of Vrindavanam where Krishna's Pada Renus are wide spread are the play grounds for the Gopies , who never miss the chance of taking the Renu on their heads,this is the area of their Rasa Nrutyam with Krishna whose Hands are held close to those of the Gopies and their feet move in unison with those of Krishna in a rhythmic manner,all this scenes are so sweet to imagine.The friendship with Krishna is so sweet,and so rare to get,only a continuous Namasankeerthanam can give one the closeness to Sree Krishna. The ultimate union with the Lord must be so sweet but one has to sweat it out to get there because the Mahatmas say that Krishna may give Mukthi easily but will give Bhakthi only if one is eligible for it. So to attain that Ultimate Sweetness of the Madhuradhipathi we have to continue chanting His Names and singing His Leelas all the times.
"Geetham Madhuram Peetham Madhuram
Bhuktham Madhuram Suptham Madhuram,
Roopam Madhuram Tilakam Madhuram
Madhura Adhipathe Akhilam Madhuram"
Krishna Gadha and His Geetham are so sweet to His Bhakthas that they forget the daily Mundane things and even the phyiscal needs and go on chanting His songs all the times.This Leelamrutam is their life saving drinks without which they can not survive in this world. They forget to eat their food and eat only His Prasadams for the needs of their bodies,that too get the strength to sing His songs. They live as long as they want in this world,even the Yama Dharma Raja can not come near to them even if they are at the end of their lives as per their Grahas. Because the Swaroopam of Sree Krishna is with in their hearts which provides them the sweet ness of their lives.The body of Krishna with the Hari Chandanam applied is the sweetest thing one can see with his eyes.
"Karanam Madhuram Tharanam Madhuram,
Haranam Madhuram Smaranam Madhuram,
Vamitham Madhuram Shamitham Madhuram,
Madhura Adhipathe Akhilam Madhuram"

To be a Karmayogi is first step in Bhagawath Bhakthi,when we do our Karma's according to the Dharmas we are given the chance to do the Bhagawath Bhakthi by the Lord who can help us cross this Samsara Sagaram. That is why The Tharanam is also Madhuram.But one has to be always on the Hari Smaranam for the Madhuradhipathi to help us cross this Samsara Sagaram. Thus this Smaranam also is sweet.
"Gunja Madhura Mala Madhura,
Yamuna Madhura viji Madhura,
Salilam Madhuram Kamalam Madhuram,
Madhura Adhipathe Akhilam Madhuram"

"Gopi Madhura Leela Madhura,
Yuktham Madhuram,Bhuktham Madhuram,
Dhrushtam Madhuram Shishtam Madhuram,
Madhura Adhipathe Akhilam Madhuram"

"Gopa Madhura Gavo Madhura,
Yashtir Madhura,Shrushtir Madhura,
Dalitham Madhuram Falitham Madhuram,
MADHURA ADHIPATHER AKHILAM MADHURAM."

Before the creations started only Sree Krishna was present and how did He create this Universe and how did He get the materials for the creation? There were no building blocks or materials available outside Himself and we can assume that He has created the world from His own body materials. That is the reason why we Hindus invoke Gods in every available material in this world,because all these materials are parts of the Lord Himself. In the Bhagawath Geetha , Lord Krishna has clearly said those who see Him in every creation are the "Uttama Bhakthas". In the South Indian Temple of Chidambaram, even the "Space" is worshipped as Bhagawan !! (Chidambara Rahasyam).So " SARVAM KRISHNA MAYAM JAGAT". Krishna is sweet, Krishna is Aanandam and hence Vallabhacharyaji Maharaj sings "Madhuradhipatherakhilam Madhuram"

Sarvam Sree Krishnamrutam.
