Remembering Meera Bai's Divine Love on Her Jayanti

 

In North India, especially in Rajasthan, Meera Bai Jayanti was recently observed on October 26, 2026, coinciding with the Hindu lunar calendar festival of Sharad Purnima. Event s were held in which her devotional songs and poems as her divine love for Girdhar Gopal were recited, 

She was remembered for her devotional poetry that continues to be revered since it expresses the timeless beauty of faith, devotion, and divinel love for Lord Krishna.


 Meera Bai (c. 1498 – c. 1546), a 16th-century Rajput princess and Bhakti saint, who  represents the pinnacle of Madhurya Bhava—loving Lord Krishna with the intimate, passionate devotion of a wife and lover rather than a distant deity.
 

Here is an inspired poem describing her devotion to her eternal divine lover lord Krishna.
 

Giridhar Gopal is Meera's only prize,
Beyond this world, no other soul she sees.
The dusty paths of ritual she despises,
For only He can set her spirit free.
 
With dancing feet and heart in joyful song,
She broke the chains of every earthly law,
To God alone her deepest prayers belong,
The source of all the light she ever saw.
 
No mortal king could claim her humble hand,
She was the bride of Shyam, the Lord of Grace,
The only constant in this shifting land,
She lose her ego in Lord's soft embrace.
 
In blissful faith, she wore the golden ring,
Of eternal love, to Lord alone she would cling.

Such actions undermine democracy and hinder the potential for constructive and meaningful discussions. They substitute logical arguments with cheap publicity stunts. This type of attack goes beyond rational discourse and peaceful debate, creating panic as it may involve hazardous chemicals. However, when a government supporter targeted Abhijit Dipke of CJP at Jantar Mantar, he and his supporters managed to handle the situation calmly, preventing social unrest. A limerick  Young Dipke, a chap quite astute, Was ink-attacked, a messy pursuit. He stayed calm and meek, As the attacker woman did shriek, "Blue's my color!" he said, with sweet hoot.

But God's name is a sturdy ship, A promise held upon your lip. Remember Him with every breath, Think of His love, escape from death. Meditate upon His grace, Find peace in this uncertain space. That ship will sail, beyond the pain, To liberation's sunny plain.
