Tiruvaayppadi
- Navamohanakrishna Mandir
Here
is the kshetra where in one can dig the gold with finger nails and carry away
with them of bhakti gold, the worth of its mass can be neither weighed or
measured, nor the arithmetic can assess. Can anyone count the molecules of sea
water? Visit this to realize the truth.
It
is located on the bank of 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 Putana, followed by crushing of Sakatasura, smashing of Vrishabhasura;
humbling of Kalia, blind folding of Brahma, showing of 14 worlds in the mouth to
his mother Yasodha, to liberating Gandharvas interspersed with butter stealing
prank, and many more divyalilas are said to have taken place here. As every inch
of this place exudes divinity, there is no necessity to build a mandir for
installing his icon, yet 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.
It is on the other side of Mathura town, accessible by boat or bus.
