Shri Bhramar Ghat
Shri Bhramar Ghat Vrindavan ka ek ati-premmay aur adhyatmik drishtikon se mahatvapurn sthal maana jata hai. “Bhramar” shabd ka arth hota hai madhumakkhi ya bhanwara, aur isi bhav se yah ghat apne khas itihaas aur divya kathaon ke liye prasiddh hai. Yahan ka poora parisar ek alaukik shaanti aur madhur braj-ras me dooba hua lagta hai. Vrindavan ke pracheen ghato me ise ek anokhi pehchaan prapt hai, kyunki yah Shri Radha-Krishna ke antaranga prem, virah-bhav aur madhurya-ras ka visisht prateek mana jata hai.
Kathaon me varnan milta hai ki yeh wahi sthal hai jahan Shri Krishna ne ek baar bhanware ka roop dharan kiya tha. Radha Rani aur unki sakhiyan iss ghat ke aas-paas phoolon se sajae kunjon me vihar kar rahi thi. Krishna ne unki madhur leelaon aur hansi-mazaak ko aur gehera banane ke liye ek bhramar ka swaroop liya aur Radha ji ke pass gungunate hue ghoomne lage. Ye bhramar-leela prem, madhurya aur vilas ka ek prateek ban gayi — jo dikhati hai ki Krishna ka prem sirf deh ya shabdon ka nahi, balki bhavon aur hriday ke anubhav ka hai.
Yeh ghat apne shaant, prakritik drishyon ke liye bhi mashhoor hai. Yamuna ji ka nirmal jal is sthal ko ek alag hi pavitrata pradan karta hai. Jab subah ka suraj Yamuna ke jal par chamakta hai aur thandi hawa ghat ki seedhiyon par behne lagti hai, to poori aatma ek anokhi prasannata se bhar uthti hai. Bahut se bhakt kehte hain ki Shri Bhramar Ghat par baith kar naam-jap karne se man apne aap hi shaant ho jata hai.
Adhyatmik drishtikon se, Shri Bhramar Ghat virah-bhav ka prateek bhi mana jata hai. Kuch prasiddh Braj-leela granthon me likha hai ki yahin par Radha ji ne Krishna ki yaadon me gahra virah anubhav kiya tha. Unki sakhiyan unhe sambhalti thi, aur Radha ji koi bhanwara dekhkar samajh leti thi ki shayad Krishna ka koi sandesh hai. Isi karan, bhramar ko Radha-Krishna ke prem me sandeshvahak bhi kaha gaya.
Din ke samay yeh ghat teerth-yatris aur sadhaks se bhar jata hai. Kuch log yahan Yamuna ji me pavitra snan karte hain, kuch dhyan aur jap me doob jate hain, aur kuch shaant hokar Vrindavan ki pavitrata ka rasaswad karte hain. Ghat ke aas-paas ke vrindavan ke puratan ped-paudhon aur kunjon me ek pracheen shanti aur divyata mehsoos hoti hai, jo bhakton ke hriday ko krishna-prem se bhar deti hai.
Sandhya-kaal me jab yajman Yamuna ji ki aarti karte hain, to Shri Bhramar Ghat ka drishya aur bhi manohar ho jata hai. Diye ki jyot aur shangh-dhwani poore ghat ko ek divya jyoti se bhar deti hai. Us samay yeh ghat aisa lagta hai jaise poora braj-lok hi Yamuna ke kinare utar aaya ho.
Is prakar, Shri Bhramar Ghat keval ek sthal nahi, balki prem, virah, madhurya aur bhakti ka ek jeevant teerth hai. Jo bhi yahan aata hai, woh braj-ras se man ko bhigokar hi lautता hai.
