Mystery of Nidhivan Vrindavan (Mathura)(India)
Mathura. There are many such places in Brajbhoomi, which have been the center of faith among the people for centuries. Many of these places are full of miracles. One such place is the Nidhivan of Vrindavan, which is believed to be where Lord Krishna performs Raslila every night with the Gopis. Those who wanted to see this Rasleela either went mad, or they died. This is why Nidhivan, which opens in the morning, is closed after the evening aarti. After that, no one lives here. Even the animals and birds who roar in the Nidhivan during the day leave the Nidhi forest at dusk. There is a palace in Nidhivan, 'Rang Mahal.' Under its roof, food is kept for Shri Krishna and the Gopis in the evening, which is not visible when it is morning. In such a situation, it is said that Kanha also leaves marks.
Everyone Leaves the forest before night falls.
According to Bhikh Chandra Goswami, the chief Gosain of Nidhivan, it is also mentioned in the scriptures that in the Dwapar Yuga, Lord Krishna performed Raslila with the gopis on the night of Sharad Purnima. But, there have been beliefs about Nidhivan that every night Shri Krishna makes Raslila with the Gopis. On the night of Sharad Purnima, entry into Nidhivan is strictly prohibited. Devotees can enter during the day, and there is no restriction. However, as soon as evening falls, Nidhivan is evacuated.
This happens not only in Nidhivan but also in Seva Kunj, located a short distance away. There is also a belief in creating the Raas of Krishna, where Radha Rani is an ancient temple.
Decorate Bedroom for Radha Krishna to sit
Priests associated with 'Ras Mandal' tell that Rasleela has been recognized in the palace built inside Nidhivan. For thousands of years, devotees have believed that Kanhaiya visits 'Rang Mahal' every night. The sandalwood bed kept here is decorated before 7 pm. There is a lot of water, Radhaji's makeup items, and paan with teeth beside the bed. When you look in the morning, you find the lota empty. I can't even get paan.
There are holy trees like Tulsi, Henna in the whole Nidhivan.
Nidhi Van is like a forest, in which Tulsi and Henna trees are more. These are entirely different from the typical basil plants. They are large, and at the same time, the branches of these trees come towards the ground.
The branches of trees turn their direction towards the ground
Not only this, Tulsi trees are in pairs here. It is said that when there is Raas in the night, then all these trees come in the form of Gopas and Gopis. Therefore, instead of growing upwards, the branches of the trees planted here turn their direction towards the ground.
The water of the Lotus is empty, and the paan is eaten.
As it has been said that every evening the priests decorate the bedroom for Radha-Krishna to sit, and the blog is kept. After that night, when the doors of 'Rang Mahal' are opened at 5 in the morning, the bedroom is in disarray, the water of the Lotus is empty, and the paan is eaten.
windows of houses do not open
It is believed that one who sees the Raas of Lord Shri Krishna and Radha happening in the night becomes mad or blind. That is why people in the houses around Nidhivan have not installed windows on that side. Even the places which have windows close the temple aarti at seven o'clock in the evening. Many people have even closed their windows with bricks. According to the people living nearby, no one looks at this forest after seven o'clock in the evening.
Wanted to see Rasleela secretly, Lost mental balance (True incident)
About a decade and a half ago, a devotee of Radha-Krishna named Santram came to Vrindavan from Jaipur. He had heard about Nidhivan; he was so engrossed in the devotion of Hari that he decided to watch Kanha's Rasleela at night. He sat secretly hiding in Nidhivan. But, when the doors of the temple opened in the morning, he was found lying unconscious. When he regained consciousness, people saw that he had lost his mental balance. Before this, things are also told about the death of some people here.
Other Facts
Apart from this, the guides also say that the 16000 intertwined trees you see in Nidhivan become 16000 queens of Shri Krishna in the same night and make rasa with him. After the Raas, Shri Radha and Shri Krishna rest in the Rang Mahal in the premises themselves. When the doors of Rang Mahal are opened at 5:30 in the morning, the teeth kept for them are wet, and the items of makeup are found scattered as if someone had gone to bed at night.
Some people say they have heard the sound of ghunghroos at night from the temple. It is also believed that these trees light up at night to welcome the Gods.
It is believed that anyone who stays inside the temple at night either loses their hearing ability or becomes visually impaired. This is because one can't disclose the secret of this temple.
It is believed that Lord Krishna resides in this temple. Many historians and scientists have visited this temple in the past, and they think that God lives here.
