Jai Shri Krishna !!
It was just the beginning of perpetual happiness in Mira’s life. Seeing the child safely back with Goswami Raidas made the entire family thrilled with happiness. The whole palace was under great shock at the missing of the child, seeing the child safely back with the idol of Lord Krishna created a festival atmosphere among the villagers. Her grandfather Rao Dudaji ordered to build a temple inside the fort to worship Lord Krishna.
Mira’s love for Krishna grew day by day. She spent most of her time with Lord Krishna talking to him, singing and praising his beauty. The intimacy towards lord Krishna cemented as the days passed by. One day Mira requested her mother to perform her wedding with Lord Krishna. Her mother was alarmed at the request of her one and only daughter. She tried to withdraw Mira from her desire, she tried to make her convince that He is Supreme Lord, He cannot be physically present to fulfill her desires, He cannot be her husband etc.. But, all the philosophies were not getting into her mind. Mira was unyielding in her decision to marry Krishna. Her mother spoke to her husband and finally obtained permission to perform marriage of Mira with Lord Krishna. They have arranged a beautiful dais in their garden for the bride and bridegroom. Mira was beautifully decorated in her bride attire and with all her childhood friends assembled in the garden, marriage of Mira with Krishna was took place. She was stunningly walked with the idol of Krishna close to her chest. Her parents performed all the rituals for the happiness of their one and only daughter Mira. . This joyous event made her mind to confirm that she is the wife of Lord Krishna and belonged to Him only. Afterwards she treated herself as ‘Mira Ke Prabhu Giridhar Nagar’.
Mira grew into a beautiful young girl. Her day begins with Krishna and ends with Him. She composed many beautiful songs about Lord Krishna. Her life and thoughts were occupied by Krishna only Krishna. During one of her joyous moments with Krishna, she lost her mother. After this incident, her father Ratan Singh Rathore was isolated himself away from his private life. Mira had to go through all the suffering at a young age all alone. During her difficult days, Krishna embraced her and made her stronger. Later, her life in the palace was very difficult. She had to face sharp criticism of her relatives about her devotion to Lord Krishna. She was ill treated by her Aunt. She patiently handled all the difficult moments in her life. She had her childhood friend - Lalitha and Her Grandfather Rao Dudaji was the only solace for her. She was close to her only cousin ‘Jaimal’, who was very close to; they spent their childhood in the same palace. Above painful incidents made Mira to get closer to Krishna more and more. It was impossible to see her without the idol. She had to work hard in the palace and undergo severe punishments from her aunt sometimes. Her closeness towards Krishna, brought her into an ecstasy resulted in singing and dancing with the villagers outside the palace praising the glory of the Lord.
Jai Shri Krishna !!
