श्री ब्रह्म संहिता (ब्रह्मा द्वारा भगवान कृष्ण की स्तुति) / स्वर : स्वरुप दामोदर दास

 https://youtu.be/CC083PNALVQ  

ब्रह्मसंहिता एक संस्कृत पंचरात्र ग्रन्थ है जिसमें सृष्टि के आरम्भ में भगवान ब्रह्मा द्वारा 

भगवान कृष्ण या गोविन्द की स्तुति की गयी है। गौड़ीय वैष्णव संप्रदाय में इस ग्रन्थ की 

बहुत प्रतिष्ठा है।

ब्रह्मसंहिता में कहा है-

ईश्वरः परमः कृष्णः सच्चिदानन्द विग्रहः।
अनादिरादि गोविन्दः सर्वकारण कारणम्॥
(श्री कृष्ण परम ईश्वर हैं तथा सच्चिदानन्द हैं। वे आदि पुरुष गोविन्द समस्त कारणों के कारण हैं।)
Introduction :

The origins of the text known as Brahma-samhita are lost in 
cosmic antiquity. According to Vedic tradition, these “Hymns 
of Lord Brahma” were recited or sung countless millennia ago 
by the first created being in the universe, just prior to the act 
of creation. The text surfaced and entered calculable history 
early in the sixteenth century when it was discovered by a pilgrim 
exploring the manuscript library of an ancient temple in what is 
now Kerala state in South India. The pilgrim who rescued 
Brahma-samhita from obscurity was no ordinary pilgrim, and His 
pilgrimage was not meant, as is the custom, for self-purification 
but for world-purification. He was Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu 
- saint, mystic, religious reformer, and full incarnation of the 
Supreme Lord, Sri Krsna, descending into the present epoch for 
the salvation of all souls. Sri Caitanya found “one chapter of the 
Brahma-samhita” (what we now have as Brahma-samhita is, 
according to tradition, only one of a hundred chapters 
composing an epic work lost to humanity).

In spite of the seeming topical complexity of the text, the 
essential core of the Brahma-samhita consists of Lord Brahma’s 
extraordinarily beautiful prayers about the Supreme Personality 
of Godhead, Lord Sri Krsna, and His eternal, transcendental abode, 
Goloka Vrndavana. This core of the text stretches through verse 
twenty-nine to fifty-six, and a brief, subsequent exposition by 
Lord Krsna on the path of krsna-bhakti, love of God, brings the 
text to a close.

TRANSLATION :

1) Krsna who is known as Govinda is the Supreme Godhead. 

He has an eternal blissful spiritual body. He is the origin of all. 

He has no other origin and He is the prime cause of all causes.

 

2) Enlightened by the recollection of that Gayatri, embodying 

the three Vedas, Brahma became acquainted with the expanse 

of the ocean of truth. Then he worshiped Sri Krishna, the essence 

of all Vedas, with this hymn.

 

3) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, the first progenitor 

who is tending the cows, yielding all desire, in abodes built 

with spiritual gems, surrounded by millions of purpose trees, 

always served with great reverence and affection by hundreds 

of thousands of lakshmis or gopis.

 

4) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is adept in playing 

on His flute, with blooming eyes like lotus petals with head 

decked with peacock's feather, with the figure of beauty tinged 

with the hue of blue clouds, and His unique loveliness charming 

millions of Cupids.

 

5) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, round whose neck is 

swinging a garland of flowers beautified with the moon-locket, 

whose two hands are adorned with the flute and jeweled ornaments, 

who always revels in pastimes of love, whose graceful 

threefold-bending form of Syamasundara is eternally manifest.

 

6) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, whose transcendental 

form is full of bliss, truth, substantiality and is thus full of the most 

dazzling splendor. Each of the limbs of that transcendental figure 

possesses in Himself, the full-fledged functions of all the organs, 

and eternally sees, maintains and manifests the infinite universes, 

both spiritual and mundane.

 

7) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is inaccessible 

to the Vedas, but obtainable by pure unalloyed devotion of the 

soul, who is without a second, who is not subject to decay, 

is without a beginning, whose form is endless, who is the 

beginning, and the eternal purusha; yet He is a person possessing 

the beauty of blooming youth.

 

8) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, only the tip of the 

toe of whose lotus feet is approached by the yogis who 

aspire after the transcendental and betake themselves to 

pranayama by drilling the respiration; or by the jnanis 

who try to find out the non-differentiated Brahman 

by the process of elimination of the mundane, extending

over thousands of millions of years.

 

9) He is an undifferentiated entity as there is no distinction between 

potency and the possessor thereof. In His work of creation of millions 

of worlds, His potency remains inseparable. All the universes exist 

in Him and He is present in His fullness in every one of the atoms 

that are scattered throughout the universe, at one and the same time. 

Such is the primeval Lord whom I adore.

 

10) I adore the same Govinda, the primeval Lord, in whose praise men, 

who are imbued with devotion, sing the mantra-suktas told by the Vedas, 

by gaining their appropriate beauty, greatness, thrones, conveyances 

and ornaments.

 

11) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, residing in His own realm, 

Goloka, with Radha, resembling His own spiritual figure, the 

embodiment of the ecstatic potency possessed of the sixty-four 

artistic activities, in the company of Her confidantes [sakhis], 

embodiments of the extensions of Her bodily form, permeated 

and vitalized by His ever-blissful spiritual rasa.

 

12) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is Syamasundara, 

Krishna Himself with inconceivable innumerable attributes, whom 

the pure devotees see in their heart of hearts with the eye of devotion 

tinged with the salve of love.

 

13) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who manifested Himself 

personally as Krishna and the different avataras in the world in the 

forms of Rama, Nrisimha, Vamana, etc., as His subjective portions.

 

14) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, whose effulgence is 

the source of the nondifferentiated Brahman mentioned in the 

Upanishads, being differentiated from the infinity of glories 

of the mundane universe appears as the indivisible, infinite, 

limitless, truth.

 

15) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, who is the absolute 

substantive principle being the ultimate entity in the form of the 

support of all existence whose external potency embodies the 

threefold mundane qualities, viz., sattva, rajas, and tamas and 

diffuses the Vedic knowledge regarding the mundane world.

 

16) I worship Govinda, the primeval Lord, whose glory ever 

triumphantly dominates the mundane world by the activity 

of His own pastimes, being reflected in the mind of 

recollecting souls as the transcendental entity of ever-blissful 

cognitive rasa.

 

17) Lowest of all is located Devi-dhama [mundane world], 

next above it is Mahesa-dhama [abode of Mahesa]; above 

Mahesa-dhama is placed Hari-dhama [abode of Hari] and 

above them all is located Krishna's own realm named Goloka. 

I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, who has allotted their 

respective authorities to the rulers of those graded realms.

 

18) The external potency Maya who is of the nature of the 

shadow of the cit potency, is worshiped by all people as Durga, 

the creating, preserving and destroying agency of this mundane 

world. I adore the primeval Lord Govinda in accordance with 

whose will Durga conducts herself.

 

19) Just as milk is transformed into curd by the action of acids, 

but yet the effect curd is neither same as, nor different from, 

its cause, viz., milk, so I adore the primeval Lord Govinda 

of whom the state of Sambhu is a transformation for the 

performance of the work of destruction.

 

20) The light of one candle being communicated to other candles, 

although it burns separately in them, is the same in its quality. 

I adore the primeval Lord Govinda who exhibits Himself 

equally in the same mobile manner in His various manifestations.

 

21) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda who assuming His own 

great subjective form, who bears the name of Sesha, replete 

with the all-accommodating potency, and reposing in the 

Causal Ocean with the infinity of the world in the pores of 

His hair, enjoys creative sleep [yoga-nidra].

 

22) Brahma and other lords of the mundane worlds, appearing 

from the pores of hair of Maha-Vishnu, remain alive as long 

as the duration of one exhalation of the latter [Maha-Vishnu]. 

I adore the primeval Lord Govinda of whose subjective 

personality Maha-Vishnu is the portion of portion.

 

23) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda from whom the separated 

subjective portion Brahma receives his power for the regulation 

of the mundane world, just as the sun manifests some portion of 

his own light in all the effulgent gems that bear the names 

of suryakanta, etc.

 

24) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, whose lotus feet are 

always held by Ganesa upon the pair of tumuli protruding 

from his elephant head in order to obtain power for his function 

of destroying all the obstacles on the path of progress of the 

three worlds.

 

25) The three worlds are composed of the nine elements, 

viz., fire, earth, ether, water, air, direction, time, soul and mind. 

I adore the primeval Lord Govinda from whom they originate, 

in whom they exist and into whom they enter at the time of the

universal cataclysm.

 

26) The sun who is the king of all the planets, full of infinite 

effulgence, the image of the good soul, is as the eye of this world. 

I adore the primeval Lord Govinda in pursuance of whose order 

the sun performs his journey mounting the wheel of time.

 

27) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, by whose conferred 

power are maintained the manifested potencies, that are 

found to exist, of all virtues, all vices, the Vedas, the 

penances and all jivas, from Brahma to the meanest insect.

 

28) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, who burns up to their 

roots all fruitive activities of those who are imbued with devotion 

and impartially ordains for each the due enjoyment of the fruits of 

one's activities, of all those who walk in the path of work, 

in accordance with the chain of their previously performed works, 

no less in the case of the tiny insect that bears the name of 

indragopa than in that of Indra, king of the devas.

 

29) I adore the primeval Lord Govinda, the meditators of whom, 

by meditating upon Him under the sway of wrath, amorous passion, 

natural friendly love, fear, parental affection, delusion, reverence 

and willing service, attain to bodily forms befitting the nature of 

their contemplation.

 

30) I worship that transcendental seat, known as Svetadvipa 

where as loving consorts the Laksmis in their unalloyed spiritual 

essence practice the amorous service of the Supreme Lord Krishna 

as their only lover; where every tree is a transcendental purpose tree; 

where the soil is the purpose gem, all water is nectar, every word is 

a song, every gait is a dance, the flute is the favorite attendant, 

effulgence is full of transcendental bliss and the supreme spiritual 

entities are all enjoyable and tasty, where numberless milk cows 

always emit transcendental oceans of milk; where there is eternal 

existence of transcendental time, who is ever present and without 

past or future and hence is not subject to the quality of passing 

away even for the space of half a moment. That realm is known 

as Goloka only to a very few self-realized souls in this world.
