Shri Gokulnathji's Hasya Prasangs: Prasang - 36

Having company of Rasik Devotees itself is the fruit (Rasik Bhakto no Sang Ej Phal Che):

Ek Samaye Shri Gokuleshe kahyu ke Shri Gusainjie shlok lakhine ek ek pustakma mukyo hato te niche mujab che

At one time Shri Gokulesh said that Shri Gusainji has written shlok and placed it one-by-one in (his) books, that shlok is as follows:

Tvadantarang-bhaktaa-dheeya-padma-daas-asya Nirantaram [1] Tvdeeyaanaam paramphalamanena netaram [2]

Eno bhaav shreejie kahyo ke, aa shri gusainjini shri thakorji pratye prarthna che, ane te saakshaat shri gokulesh pratye kari che। (shri gokulesh etle shri gokulpati nandnandan ke yashodotsanglaalita samajvaa) ke hu tamaro chu. Tame potano kidho, tenu param phal to e che ke koi tamaru che, teni saathe tamare antaray nathi, rasleela che, aavaa aapna antarang bhaktnu daasatva aapo.

Shreeji explained the bhaav (sentiments) saying that this is Shri Gusainji's prayer to Shri Thakorji, and that is literally for Shri Gokulesh (It is to be understood that Shri Gokulesh means Shri Gokul pati, Nand-nandan, or Yashodotsang-laalita)। That I am yours, you have called me yours. The highest fruit of this is that one is yours, you don't have any distance with them, there is divine play, give me the servitorship of such innermost devotees.

jyaa teva bhakto rahe che, ne jya tamaru nij swaroop rasatmak che, e paramphal antarang bhakto paasathi jade che, anyatra nathi, maatej bhaktnu daasatva te param phal che, anya phal te param phal nathi maate mane te aapo।

Where such devotees live, aand where your personal swaroop is rasatmak, that topmost fruit is obtained/received from innermost devotees, not from anywhere else, there for servitorship of the devotee is the highest fruit, other fruits are not topmost, therefor give me that (which is topmost)।

Vivechan

Ahi Shri Gusaiji Shri Thakorji paase vaishnavnu daasatva maage che। Ane te pan Shri Gopijanvallabh Shri Gokuleshnu daasatva karnaar sevaknu daasatva maage che. Kaaranke Shri Thakorjinu Shri Gokulesh Swaaroop Rasaatmak Anandaatmak che. Te Bhakto paase che, Shri Gokuleshma pan vividh prakaarni raasaadik leela karnar Shri Krishna nu swaroop. Aa seva maagvaanu taartamya E che ke, Bhagwan Pote Potaanu mahatmya janavtaa nathi, pan bhaktni maarfate janave che. Bhaktna hradayma birajine potani leelaaonu gyaan prabhu pote kare che. Ne E reete Bhaktne potanu mahatmya janaave che.

Aa leelaao jo bhagvat vaarta kahenaar bhagvadiya par atyant preeti hoy toj sfure che, ne anubhav aave che। Maate bhagvadiyo par atyant preeti raakhvi joiye; Shri Thakorji kartaa gurumaa vadhaare ane guru karta bhagvadiyamaa vadhaare preeti raakhvi, ke jethi bhagvadiya maarfate Shri Gurudevnu ane Shri Thakorjinu swaroop janaay, ane shri gurudev maarfate shri thakorjina swaroop ni khabar pade che.

shri gurudev pan potaane mukhe potaanu mahatmya naj janaave। potaana antarang bhaktonaa hradayma alokik rite birajine anya sevakona kalyaan maate potanu swaroop khulu kare che, maate pushtimargnu, Shri Thakorjinu ane Shri gurudevnu swaroop samajvaa bhaktna pratye preeti raakhi saatsang karvo.

-- Here Shri Gusaiji is requesting servitorship of vaishnavs, and that too of those who are themselves servitors of Shri Gopijan Vallabh, Shri Gokulesh। This is because Shri Thakorji's Shri Gokulesh swaroop is Rasatmak, Anandatmak. That is with the devotees. Even in Shri Gokulesh there is swaroop of Shri Krishna which performs different types of raasadik leelas. The reason behind asking for this particular seva is that Bhagwan himself does not disclose his own qualities.

These leelas surface within that particular bhagvadi upon whom there is extreme love, then there is experience। Therefore one should have extreme (alot) love towards bhagvadiyas. One should have more love in Guruji than Shri Thakorji and even more so towards bhagvadiya than towards guru, as it is through bhagvadiya that Shri Gurudev's and Shri Thakorji's swaroop is understood, and through Shri Gurudev one gets knowledge of Shri Thakorji.

Likewise, Shri Gurudev will also not disclose his own qualities. He would reside in the heart of his innermost disciple/devotee and reveal his swaroop for the benefit for the others. Therefore, in order to understand the swaroop of pushtimarg, Shri Thakorji and Shri Gurudev, one should keep utmost love towards the devotee and do satsang with them.
