PREFACE
That ineffable charm of Balagopala, whose boyhood sports and
mischievous pranks reverberating the Mathura Mandalam Gokulam,
Brindavanam and Repalli entertained the fortunate contemporaries of the
eighth incarnation of Lord Srimannarayan is not only confined to the Srikoil
of Guruvayur in Kerala State, but is hypnotizing the Bhaktas when they enter
several temples dedicated to Srikrishna. Among them the temples of Aanmula
with angry Parthasarathi, Ambazhapuzla, with flute playing Krishna and
Trichambram with hungry Krishna are exceedingly popular and tremendously
awe-some for multifarious uniques they are embodying, and hence are drawing
a steady influx of pilgrims over centuries and centuries. |
