CREATIONS BY KRISHNA – 2 : SPIRITUAL (VAIKUNTA) PLANETS
READ THE FIRST PART OF THIS POST BEFORE READING THIS POST HERE.
DESCRIPTION OF SPIRITUAL PLANETS
Spiritual Planets means Vaikunta Planets where Krishna and His expansions are ruling.
VAIKUNTA means NO ANXIETIES.
Why there are no anxieties in Vaikunta planets?
Because, only purified athmas/ souls live there.
There will be no desires for Purified souls. Since there are no desires, there will be no miseries or anxieties.
At the same time, spiritual/ vaikunta planets give blissful living.
Why?
Because the inhabitants are always serving Krishna and His expansions in innumerable planets.
Goloka Vrindavana is the highest planet among Vaikunta Planets where Krishna is residing and performing lilas with Radharani, His internal Pleasure Potency.
Highest planet means, the center of all vaikunta Planets around which all vaikunta planets are floating in the spiritual sky, in other words, in the cloud of Brahmam (or) Brahma Jothi.
This Brahmam is not the source of Vaikunta Planets as illogically said by some sects.
Actually, the empty light Brahmam can’t create the Persons and Planets that does not seem to be logical.
Sun can create Sun rays, the rays can’t create the sun. This is the logic.
Fire can produce the light. Without the fire, how can there be light?
Without the sun, how can there be sun light?
This is logic.
Any spiritual knowledge is backed by a logic. Because Krishna is the most intelligent Person. He can not make illogical arrangements.
Thus, innumerable Vaikunta Planets are floating in the spiritual sky. Krishna’s expansions are residing and ruling there. Krishna Himself is residing in the topmost vaikunta planet Goloka Vrindavana.
Being the most powerful person who created all these creations, Krishna’s spiritual body is powerful and brighter than innumerable suns.
So, His body emits light that extend to innumerable miles of the spiritual space.
This cloud of light is called Brahmam.
Now, let us see the nature of Vaikunta Planets.
GOLOKA
Krishna’s Kingdom Goloka is the Topmost planet among vaikunta Planets.
It is divided in to three parts:
(i) Dvaraka,
(ii) Mathura, and
(iii) Gokula
These three portions of Goloka Vrindavana is also available near India’s Delhi and other parts like Gujarat.
India’s Dvaraka, Mathura and Gokula is the replica of the Goloka Dvaraka, Mathura and Gokula. Krishna comes here to India to perform His lilas every time to these places only, whenever He comes as KRISHNA HIMSELF.
Goloka Gokula, like India’s Gokula, consists of Vrindavana where Krishna is performing Nithya lilas with Radharani and Gopis.
WHICH DEVOTEES GO TO WHICH VAIKUNTA PLANETS?
I write these four points purely based on the LOGIC, PROBABILITIES and the BHAWA or TYPE OF CONSCIOUSNESS the devotees had while worshiping Krishna during their life in earth.
WHO GOES TO GOLOKA VRINDAVANA DIRECTLY?
(i) His devotees who were following Prema Bhakti (or) Raganuga Bhakti are given opportunity to serve Krishna and His associates in the planet of Goloka Vrindavana.
(ii) Prema or Raganuka bhakti means, spontaneous bhakti arising out of one’s heart without expectations of anything from Krishna except His association and service. They are in fully surrendered state for Krishna. Eg: Gopis.
(iii) Krishna was ruling Dvaraka in India. So, those who like to live under the professional rule of Krishna goes to Goloka’s DVARAKA.
(iv) Krishna showed His mighty power in Mathura by killing Kamsa. So, those who likes to taste the courageous and mighty lilas of Krishna goes to Goloka’s Mathura.
WHO GOES TO OTHER VAIKUNTA PLANETS?
Those who worshiped the expansions of Krishna (Eg: Narayana, Vishnu, etc.) and followed Vaidhi bhakti (Vidhi Bhakti, ie, Devotional rules sincerely) are taken to Other Vaikunta Planets.
FROM WHICH VAIKUNTA PLANET WE HAVE FALLEN DOWN?
This was the question asked by a devotee. So, I added this.
Again, I write this based on the BHAWA or TYPE OF CONSCIOUSNESS YOU HAVE NOW IN THIS LIFE in earth the logical approach and expected probabilities only:
(i) If your mind prefers Prema Bhakti now, you might have fallen from Goloka’s Gokula.
(ii) If your mind prefers the courageous acts of Krishna, you might have come from Goloka’s Mathura.
(iii) If your mind prefers the King like form of Krishna, you might have come from Goloka’s Dvaraka.
(iv) If your mind prefers Service attitude or Vidhi Bhakti, you would have come from other Vaikunta Planets.
Thus, our consciousness or Bhawa plays major role in determining where we go after death as well as from where we came.
We came here from Goloka/ Vaikunta back because of the reasons explained in these two Posts of our site.
