Krishandas Meghan then asked what Shrinathji dislikes, Shri Mahaprabhuji explained that Shrinathji does not like things of a Smokey nature; that is confusion, strife etc: subsequently Vaishnavas avoid such sentiments.
Later krishnadas Meghan asked. “Why did Bhagwan Ram after giving everyone in His kingdom co-residence in His eternal abode grant his father only the terminal pleasures of heaven?” Because Krishnadas Meghan’s mental services to Shrinathji had not blossomed, he asked such an unrefined question, for how can one question Shri Krishna’s Lila. Shri Mahaprabhuji in response explained that it was only due to Bhagwan Ram’s kindness that his father achieved to heaven for he was not true to his word, otherwise he would have not sent Ram to the forest. The point here is that such obstinacy is only troublesome to the Bhagwan, who in turn does not grant the residence of His Divine Abode to such persons.
Once Krishnadas Meghan asked the prudent question that why so many Vaishnavas did not have evident realization of Shri Krishna’s Lilas. Shri Mahaprabhuji then explained that their surrender to Shri Krishna was not perfect for their I-ness and My-ness were not offered to the Shri Krishna. Those persons, not keeping the association of accomplished Vaishnavas only consider their own qualification and because they lack humbleness, Shri Krishna is not pleased with them. For these reasons he does not grant the true knowledge of His and His devotees form. By the association of accomplished devotees, as well as by constant contemplation over Shri Subodhini and other devotional works; by lovingly performing Shri Krishna’s Seva and remembering the sentiments of the Gopis, one is able to realize the Shri Krishna. Those who see Shri Krishna in Vaishnavas, perform all of their work for Shri Krishna, and cherish the pangs of His divine separation while considering their own original form and present faults; such devotees become acquainted with Shri Krishna’s Lila. They always think about their true obligation and come to know their own Lila form. The other Puranas and other scriptures are not even aware of this sublime Lila. To reveal this very Lila the Gopis appeared. To realize Shri Krishna’s Lila one should keep the association of accomplished devotees and by asking them questions and serving them one comes to know all about Shri Krishna’s Lilas.
When Shri Mahaprabhuji visited Shri Veda Vyasa for a third time he discussed with him one line from the Gopis Brahmar Gita. Hearing Shri Mahaprabhuji’s commentary, Veda Vyasa was most pleased and complimented Him. Later, Shri, Mahaprabhuji visited Shri Badrinathji’s temple. Because that day was Bhagwan Vamanji’s appearance festival and a fast day, Shri Veda Vyasa and Krishnadas Meghan went out to look for suitable non-grain food but were not able to find any. Later, Bhagwan Badrinathji came and told Shri Mahaprabhuji that there were no such foods in the area and that he should discard the traditional regulation of fast for that day. Shri Mahaprabhuji following Shri Badrinathji’s advice offered and then later partook of grains on that day. It was also the secret wish of Shri Mahaprabhuji to make such a grain offering.
Krishnadas Meghan’s devotion to Shri Mahaprabhuji was so intense that when Shri Mahaprabhuji left this world, Krishnadas Meghan in extreme separation from Shri Mahaprabhuji shortly later left his body and attained to the abode of Shri Mahaprabhuji.
