GOKULAM
It
is located across the river Yamuna. It is this Punyabhumi that
witnessed the multiplicity of Balakrishna's indescribable sports
that kept heaven agog even. In fact, there passed no day then, when
some miracle or the other was shown by that Jagannataka Sutradhari
to the denizens of that pujya dharani. Starting from killing of
Putava, followed by crushing of Sakatasura, smashing of
Vrishabhasura, humbling of Kalia, blind-folding of Brahma, showing
of 14 worlds in the mouth, to liberating Gandharvas interspersed
with butter-stealing pranks and many more divyalilas arc said to
have taken place here. As every inch of this place exudes divinity,
many temples were built to perpetuate the spots. They breathe in
grace and breathe out bliss, so they are to be visited indispensably
by ardent theists, and tourists even.
