Our spatially & temporally separated 💰prosperous (śrī) pleasantness (rāma-) on the one hand & magnetic 🧲 attractiveness (kṛṣṇa) on the other hand recombine here & now 🔯. What’s the result?

A supremely- (parama-) foresighted prudence (indicated by a swan🦢) between the temporary-cum-finite-dimensional Body+Mind+Intellect (BMI, indicated by water💦) on the one hand… and the permanent-cum--dimensional Self@ātmā=brahman🕉 (indicated by milk🥛), on the other hand. Net result: manifesting as śrī rāma-kṛṣṇa parama-hamsā, in adoration of bhava-tārini, a protective mother-sailor to the entire universe.

In bengāli, his name is pronounced slightly differently as ramô-kṛṣṇo pôromo-hôṅso @ gadā-dhar chaṭṭa-upa-adhyāya (👼🏻kamarpukur, Feb 18, 1836 — kāśi-pūr@cossipore, Aug 16, 1886🪦). Please notice that even this original name chosen by his father khudi-rām is immensely significant as a destroyer of the 6 internal foes thro’ the mace (gadā-) of wisdom that he wields (dhar), condensing all 4 védās (chaṭṭa-) in an exemplary life, available to all who came in proximity (upa-) to Him, with an open mind, seeking to learn (adhyāya) & liberate.

The relationship between the lyricist-composer (sva-ami vivék-ānandā) of the śrī rāma-kṛṣṇa ārati on the one hand & the protagonist on the other is very unique & interesting. In fact, the protagonist had a vision in which he was an infant 👶 floating in the skies🌌, spotting 1️⃣ of the 7️⃣ original seers (sapta-ṛṣīs) & crying😭out to him to follow him back to earth 🌏.

Hence, unlike in the previous episodes on the “Smt. Vasantha Kumari Sampath” YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/channel/UCeWpsBldIwGPHZEHuqAasTw, wherein the songs are usually addressed by the BMI to ourSelf, in this ārati, it’s predominantly ourSelf (sva-ami vivék-ānandā) which profusely praises our consciously-responsible BMI (śrī rāma-kṛṣṇa)❣️

And coming finally to the real protagonist who bowled over both the parama-hamsā & the svāmiji… it’s the one & only bhava-tārini. Wishing all the 🥰gorgeous🧚‍♀️women💁🏻‍♀️in our life an ⚡️energetic🔥woman’s day today & forever. Let’s bow 🙇🙇‍♀️🙇‍♂️ down to the infinitely-powerful divinely feminine dark energy that not only surrounds all of us, but is inherent within all of us, irrespective of our gender. yā dévi sarva bhūtéśu mātru rūpéna samsthitā, namastasyai namastasyai namastasyai namō namaha❣️And BTW, please join me in congratulating👏VasanthiMā on yet another double🥈century💯 performance last week! 🙌https://youtu.be/RKloG8yN-M4
