50. Dheera Sameera Kunja
This is one of the favourite meeting places
of Shri Shri Radha and Krishna. One can find mention of this place in many of
the literatures of the six Goswamis. Dheera means
gentle and Sameera means
wind or breeze. Dheera-Sameera, as the name suggests, means the place where the
flow of the wind became very slow being intoxicated by the charming sound of
Shyamsundar’s flute. Also here is the Pushpa Samadhi of Shrila Gauri Das
Pandit, one of the most intimate associates of both Nityananda Prabhu and Lord
Shri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.
Radhanath Swami narrated
the sweet pastime of Dheera Sameera to a large group of devotees during a Vrindavan
Yatra. One time Radha and Krishna were sitting together in this
Dheera-Sameera Kunja and Krishna began to blow beautiful and sweet melodies
through His flute. The nectarine sound vibration that emanated from Lord Shri
Krishna’s flute was so pleasing that it captivated and intoxicated the hearts
and the minds of all living entities of Vrindavan. On that particular day the
wind was blowing very hard. But when it came to this place, hearing the sound
of Krishna’s flute, the wind became very slow and graceful as it did not want
to get separated from the beautiful sound of the flute of Shyamsundar. The wind
just wanted to keep on gracefully floating at this place so as to serve as a
host and an accompaniment to the sweet music of Krishna’s flute.
Radhanath Swami added that at this place one can just sit and
absorb oneself in the sweetness and the mood of Vrindavan by hearing the
beautiful sound of the singing of parrots and being surrounded with wonderful
Kalpavriksha trees with slow cooling breezes touching ones body. This is
Vrindavan where the entire atmosphere simply brings our heart closer to the
remembrance of Radha and Krishna.
