|| Shri Hari: || S.G. Shri Satanand Muni Virchit Volume-1 Chapter-52 | Suvrat Muni continued, "O king! The saints were surprised to see Shree Hari occupied in meditation during His free time. Muktanand swami once asked Him, 'O best among Varnis! We see You often meditating with Your eyes closed. Please tell us Who do You meditate upon?' Nilkanth Varni replied, "The husband of Radhikaji, Lord Shree Krishna, is My Ishtadev (personal God). All the scriptures point to the same fact. Brahma, Dharma and Shiva worship Him as well. He incarnates Himself as Varah etc. I always meditate upon Him. He is the only refuge for the souls entangled in Maya and transmigrating from body to body. I have not an iota of interest in anything except the lotus feet of Lord Krishna. I pray to Him and I worship Him.' Pleased with the fact that just like them, Varni was also Lord Krishna's devotee, Muktanand swami said, 'We worship Lord Krishna as well and we are able to see God in our heart as a result of the blessings of our guru, Ramanand swami. He is Udhhavji himself and can see Lord Krishna playing Raas in his heart. He is potent enough to send his disciples in Samadhi and show Lord Krishna in their hearts as well. It is possible for a devotee like You to see Lord Krishna with our guru's blessings. We do not see any difference between Ramanand swami and Lord Krishna. Lord Krishna has taken the form of Ramanand swami for the benevolence of humankind. There is no other guru than Ramanand swami on this earth, as Lord Krishna has himself anointed him as the guru of this world. I quote these two verses from the Shreemad Bhagwat (4th Canto) in support. 'I need to impart the knowledge before I depart from the earth. Therefore, he is the most suitable pupil on the whole earth. I will let him remain on the earth (despite the curse of a sage).'O Nilkanth Varni! Lord Krishna Himself had said this. We are swami's disciples and worship Lord Krishna on his direction. Suvrat Muni said, "Shree Hari remembered His father's relationship with guru Ramanand swami on hearing Muktanand swami. He wished to get Ramanand swami's blessing to help Him see Lord Krishna in His heart. He said to Muktanand swami, 'I am yours as well. Wish Me well and do something so that I can have guru's Darshan as soon as possible.' Shree Hari narrated His birth and life in brief to Muktanand swami, who said, 'You are great! You have an inner desire to meet Ramanand swami, but he is presently in Bhuj and will return here in two to three months. You must stay here with us until he returns.' O king! Varni stayed in the Ashram waiting for Ramanand swami's return. He served other saints humbly and without any rancour. He brought cow dung and twigs for the fire, made dishes out of leaves. He prepared suitable food, brought medicine and massaged the feet of sick saints. He never disobeyed any instructions given by other saints. He endured the heat of summer, rains of monsoon and the cold of winter nonchalantly. The saints were astonished to see Nilkanth Varni's power of endurance which led to Him being treated with respect equal to that of their guru Ramanand swami.
