Kokilavan

Ludhauli

Ludhauli lies half a mile west of Pisai-gaon. Here Lalita arranged for Shri Radha and Krishna to meet. This place became known as Ludhauli because both Radha and Krishna hankered (lubdha) to meet each other here. Outside the village to the north is Lalita-kund, where Radha and Krishna's meeting took place. On the eastern bank of this kund is a temple of Lalita-Bihariji.

Pisai

Once, while herding the cows, Baldev brought water here for Krishna, who was feeling very thirsty. Hence, this village became known as Pyasai, meaning "thirst came" (pyas ai). Trishn-kund and Vishakha-kund also lie here. Just near this village to the north-west is a beautiful kadamb grove. Pisai is situated one-and-a-half miles north of Karehla.

Sahar

This is the residence of Nand Baba's eldest brother, Upanand. He was extremely wise and in every respect he was Maharaj Nand's advisor. He loved Nand-nandan Shri Krishna more than he loved his own life. Upanand's son was Subhadra, whom Shri Krishna respected like a real elder brother. Subhadra Sakha, who was also extremely affectionate to Krishna, was expert in astrology and all other arts. He zealously protected Krishna from all types of hardships during cow herding. Subhadra's wife was Kundlata, who accepted Krishna as her very life. Witty and playful, she loved to laugh and she was most expert in arranging meetings between Radha and Krishna. On the order of Yashoda, she would bring Radhika with her from Javat to cook for Krishna.

Sankhi

This pastime place lies one mile west of Nari and two miles north of Sahar. It was here that Krishna killed Sankhachuda, removed the jewel from his forehead, and gave it to Shri Baldev.

Story

One day, Krishna and His sakhas were playing in the colourful Holi festival with Radha and Her sakhas near Radha-kund at the foot of Govardhan. At that time, the demon Sankhachuda caught the gopis and fled. With Saal trees in Their hands, Shri Krishna and Baldev ran after the demon to kill him. Seeing Their raging speed, Sankhachuda left the gopis and fled for his life. Krishna left Dau Bhaiya to protect the gopis, and He pursued the demon alone, and killed him. Krishna then removed the jewel from Sankhachuda's forehead and gave it to Baldev, who sent it to Radhika through Dhanistha. Radhika accepted that jewel with great honour. Nearby is Rama-kund, which is also called Rama-tala.

Umrao

This village is situated some four or five miles east of Chhatravan. When the sakhas heard Shri Krishna's proclamation, they complained to Lalita about Him. Bhakti-Ratnakar describes what ensued:
lalitadi sakhi krodhe kahe bara bara, radhikara rajya ke karaye adhikara
aiche kata kahi lalitadi sakhigana, radhikare umrao kaila iksana

“Lalita became angry and said, `Who is that person who dares to claim authority over Radhika's kingdom? We will retaliate against Him.' Saying this, she seated Radhika on a beautiful throne and pronounced Her to be the undisputed queen (umrav).”
Chitra Sakhi held an umbrella over Radhika's head, and Vishakha fanned Her with a camara. Lalita sat on Radhika's left as Her minister of state. One sakhi offered Her betel-nuts, and the remaining sakhis acted as subjects. Sitting on Her throne, Radhika ordered the sakhis:
mora rajya adhikara kare yei Jana,
parabhava kari tare ana ei ksana --- Bhakti-Ratnakar

"Go and defeat the person who desires to usurp My kingdom. Bind Him and bring Him before Me."
Receiving the order of their Umrav, thousands and thousands of sakhis with flower-sticks in their hands left for battle. When Arjuna, Lavanga, Bhringa, Kokila, Subala and Madhumangal saw them approaching, they fled in all directions. One clever sakhi, however, caught Madhumangal, bound him with a flower garland, and brought him to the lotus feet of the Umrav. Some gopis slapped Madhumangal's cheeks a few times and said, "What audacity you have to try to unlawfully seize the authority of this kingdom from our Umrav? We will punish you right now." Madhumangal bowed his head low like a defeated general. "That is only befitting," he said. "We concede defeat, but please hand down such a punishment that my stomach will be filled." Maharani Radhika started to laugh and said, "This is just some gluttonous brahman. Release him." The sakhis filled his stomach with laddus and let him go. Madhumangal returned to Chhatra-pati Maharaja Krishna and, pretending to cry, gave Him a detailed report of his humiliating detention. Hearing this, Krishna together with Madhumangal and the sakhas invaded Umrao. When Radhika saw Her pran-vallabha Shri Krishna, She became quite embarrassed and quickly tried to take off Her royal dress, but the sakhis, laughing, would not let Her do so. Madhumangal seated Chhatra-pati Shri Krishna on Umrav Radhika's right side. They both made a treaty in which Krishna accepted Radhika's sovereignty. Madhumangal folded his hands before Radhika and said, "The kingdom of Krishna's body is now under Your rule. You can take whatever You desire from Him." Participating in this pastime filled the sakhis and sakhas with bliss. This village is named Umrao after this Umrav-lila, and is also known as Radha-sthali, or Raffia's place. Purnamasi later enthroned Radhika here as Brajesvari, the Queen of Braj. There is also a Kishori-kund here, where Shri Lokanath Goswami performed bhajan. The worshipful deities of Lokanath Goswami, Shri Radha-Vinod, who appeared from this kund, are now worshipped in Jaipur. Dhanshinga is the village lies near Umrao.
