Radha Bag Ghat
Radha Bag Ghat Vrindavan ka ek shant, komal aur ati-divya sthal maana jata hai, jiska sambandh Srimati Radharani ke van-vihar, prem-leela aur madhur sakhi-sang ke pavitra anubhavon se juda hua hai. “Bag” shabd ka arth hota hai bagicha ya garden, aur kathaon ke anusaar yeh wahi sthal hai jahan Radharani apni sakhiyon ke saath phoolon se sajaye kunjon me vihar karti thi. Isliye is ghat ka mahatva Vrindavan ke sabse komal, prem-mayi aur shringar-ras se bhare sthalon me mana jata hai.
Yamuna ji ke kinare sthit Radha Bag Ghat ka vatavaran aaj bhi aisa hi hai jaise kisi phoolon ki kunj me aa gaye hon. Yahan ki hawa me ek ajeeb si komalta aur prem ka bhaav hamesha mehsoos hota hai. Ghat ke aas-paas pakshi ki madhur chahchahat, pedon ki halki-jhulkati chhao aur Yamuna ki nirmal leheren milkar ek aisa pavitra sangeet rachi deti hain, jisse man aur hriday dono hi shaant ho jaate hain.
Kathaon ke mutabik Radha ji yahan aksar baithkar Krishna ke liye phoolon se haar banaya karti thi. Unki sakhiyan—Lalita, Vishakha, Champakalata aur anya sakhi—yahan ek saath milkar prem-varta aur madhur hansi-mazaak me doob jaati thi. Yahi woh bagicha tha jahan unka milan aur virah ki kathayen prakriti ke madhyam se jeevant hoti thi. Radha ji ka komal swaroop aur unki madhur leelaon ka prabhav is sthal ki hawa me aaj bhi anubhav kiya ja sakta hai.
Radha Bag Ghat ka prakritik saundarya is ghat ka sabse bada akarshan hai. Itna shant aur prasann vatavaran Vrindavan me bahut kam sthalon par dekhne ko milta hai. Kai sadhak to kahte hain ki yahan baith kar jap karna ya meditation karna man ko turant shaant aur urja-se-bharpur kar deta hai. Yamuna ki dhar yahan kuch zyada hi shaant dikhti hai—jaise wo bhi Radha ji ki komal leelaon me vilin ho gayi ho.
Yahan ki shaam ka samay anokha hota hai. Jab surya dhalta hai aur uski komal roshni Yamuna ke jal par padti hai, tab Radha Bag Ghat ka drishya divya aur prerna-prad ban jata hai. Bhakton ki mantralhariyan, mandiron ki ghanta-dhwani aur halki hawa kisi purani madhur leela ka sandesh laati hui lagti hai.
Radha Bag Ghat ka adhyatmik mahatva bhi bahut gahra hai. Yah sthal Radha ji ke madhurya-ras, komalta, karuna, prem aur saralta ka prateek mana jata hai. Jo bhakt Radharani ke prem aur unke adhyatmik svaroop ko gehre se samajhna chahte hain, unke liye yeh sthal ek adbhut anubhav deta hai. Aisa kaha jata hai ki yahan kuch pal shant baithne se bhi hriday me prem aur shanti ka anokha prabhaav utpann hota hai.
Ghat ke aas-paas ke ped, jhad, aur puratan kunj-galiyan Radha ji ki leelaon ko aur jeevant kar deti hain. Kuch log to yeh bhi kehte hain ki raat ke samay yahan ki hawa me ek aloukik sugandh utpann hoti hai—jo Radha ji ke pranay-ras ka prateek hai.
Is prakaar, Radha Bag Ghat keval ek sthal nahi, balki Radha ji ke prema-madhurya, unki komalta aur unki divya leelaon ka pavitra prateek hai. Jahan bhi bhakt yahan aata hai, wo apne hriday me shanti, prem aur kripa ka ek naya anubhav lekar hi wapas lautta hai।
