Vamsi Vat - 3...

Beautiful painting on the walls of Vamsi Vat temple, of Gopikas and Krishna dancing …

“angaNaam angaNaam antharE Madhavam”, as told in Krishna Karnamrutham….

Each Krishna has a different dress and unique alankaram…

The Gopikas holding milk, curd, butter, sweets and paan for Krishna…

The pretty Gopi, with matter hair locks, with a serpant on the head, Vibhoothi and kumkum on forehead…

The Gopeshwar Mahadev (Lord Shiva) came inside dressed as a Gopi . Radhika enquires who the new Gopi is…

The other Gopis also do not know her. Krishna smiles and tells it is Shiva…

Radhika instructs Shiva to wait outside doing penance. He would be able to listen to the sound of Gopi’s anklets during the dance…

A Sadhu doing namajapa…

Footprints of Ashtasakhis – Lalitha, Vishakha, Tungavidhya, Indulekha, Rangadevi, Sudevi, Chitra, Champakavalli…

The holy foorprints that will fetch us a place in Radha-Krishna kainkaryam in their prema leela…

Vamsi Vat - 2...

The tree under which Lord Krishna played his flute 'Vamsi'…

Krishna had promised to Gopikas that, on the night of the month of Sharad, he would come and bless them with Raasa dance…

He played his flute , standing in tribhangi form, under this tree. All the Gopis came running, leaving away everything…

The exact place where the leela occurred, as mentioned in Bhagavatha Mahapuranam...

Many Mahathmas have done penance here…

Sannidhi of Shuka Brahma Maharshi doing prostrations to his father-cum-Guru, Ved Vyasji …

Vamshee Vihari Krishna and Radhika…

Gargacharya doing penance for getting darshan of RaasLeela…

Even the Darshan of this Vamshee Vat will give us the blessings to patcipate in Raas Leela in one of our births…

To this day, bhakthas are able to listen to Krishna’s flute by pressing their ears to this banyan tree (Vata vruksham)…

Vamsi Vat - 1...

The place where Krishna played his divine flute adorned like a Manmadha, standing in tribhangi form…

The Gopikas left everything, their family, their wordly duties, their lOka dharma. Not giving importance to the bad-name they will get in this world, they came and fell on Krishna’s holy feet crying and pining for his grace…

Krishna then blesses them with Raasa Kreeda…

May this Vamsi Vat bless you all with great Krishna Bhakthi...
