Kumbhandas

Serving Shrinathji

Kumbhandas was mainly involved in serving Shrinathji and he wrote and sang many Padas & Kirtans. He was so dedicated that everyday he would climb up and down Giriraj mountain to pray and sing kirtans to please Shri Goverdahnnathji. Kumbhandas was very fortunate to experience meeting with and talking to shri Goverdhannathji. They both often played together.[2]

Kirtan

A noteworthy story of Raja Mansinh who was returning home after his victory of many states. He visited Mathura, Vrindavan, and at last came to Giririaj mountain to offer his prayers to shri Goverdhannathji. While worshipping he experienced soothing effects to his heart; as he noticed the grand style offerings of flowers, fragrances, ornaments of pearls, white cooling costumes on the Lord. He mentioned that the real experience of darshan of Lord Shri Krshna is right here what he saw in Shri Goverdhannathji. He felt the pleasure of his life time at this Darshana while Kumbhandas was singing following kirtan to the Lord-

"Roop dekhi naina palak lage nahi,
Goverdhandhar ke ang-ang prati
nirkhi naina man rahat nahi."
"Kahari kahon kuchh kahat na aave
chitt choryo ve mange dahi
Kumbhandas Prabhu miliveki
sunder baat sakhiyan so ju kahi."
