THE DIVINE LOVE OF MEERA FOR LORD KRISHNA

At The End

Meerabai  was a princess Hindu mystical and- a devotee of Lord Krishna from Rajasthan- . She was one of the most significant figures Sant of the Vaishnava bhakti movement. Some 1,300  pads (poems) commonly known as  bhajans  (sacred songs) are attributed to her. These are popular throughout India and have been published in several translations worldwide. In the  bhakti  tradition, they are in passionate praise of Lord Krishna. In most of her poems she has described her unconditional love for her Lord. She has tried to give the message that Krishna bhakti is the best way to live life as it helps us forget our desires and this in turn helps us attain moksha (liberation).

D- etails of her life, which has been the subject of several films, are pieced together from her poetry and stories recounted by her community and are of debatable historical authenticity, particularly those that connect her with the later Tansen.

On the other hand, the traditions that make her a disciple of Guru Ravidas in Chittor, her association with Tulsidas and later interactions with Rupa Goswami in Vrindavan are consonant with the usual account of her life.

Biography

Meera, a Rajput princess was born in Kudki (Kukari), a little village near Merta City which is presently in the Nagaur district ofRajasthan in northwest India. Her father, Ratan Singh, was the youngest son of Rao Duda ruler of Merta and belonged to the Rathoreclan. Rao Duda was son of Rao Jodha ruler and founder of Mandore.

As a child Meera became deeply enamored by a statue of Giridhar Gopal, Lord Krishna, owned by a holy man; she was inconsolable until she possessed it and kept it all her life. (Some myths say that Meera saw a wedding procession of a bride-groom and asked her mother about her husband, then her mother took her in front of the deity Lord Krishna and told her that He was her husband.) Then she was around seven years old. She was highly influenced by her father as he was a worshiper of Krishna.

Meera's mother, Veer Kumari, died during child birth when Meera was around seven. Meera was then sent to her grandfather, Rao Duda and father's older brother, Rao Viram Dev at Merta. It is here that she received her education.

Her uncle, Rao Viram Dev arranged Meera’s marriage, in 1516 when she was thirteen, with prince Bhoj Raj, the son of Rana Sanga ofChittor. She was not happy with her marriage as she considered herself already married to Krishna. She went to live in Chittor accompanied by her childhood mate, Mithula, who stayed with Meera till the end. Her new family did not approve of her piety and devotion when she refused to worship their family deity- Tulaja Bhawani (Durga).

The Meera Museum in Merta City

The Rajputana had remained fiercely independent of the Delhi Sultanate, the Islamic regime that otherwise ruled Hindustan after the conquests of Timur. But in the early 16th century AD the central Asian conqueror Babur laid claim to the Sultanate and some Rajputs supported him while others ended their lives in battle with him. Her husband's death in battle (in 1521 AD) was only one of a series of losses Meera experienced. Her father-in-law, Rana Sanga respected and protected Meera Bai. However; he also died after a few years and Meera was then persecuted by the rest of her in-laws. She found Krishna to be her
