Gokul

 Meerabai, the great devotee of Lord Krishna, is said to have traveled from Vrindavan to Gokul as part of her spiritual journey in search of deeper devotion and divine connection with Krishna. The main reasons behind this journey are: 

God loved  meera so.

1. Desire for Union with Krishna – Meerabai longed to be in places associated with Krishna’s divine pastimes. While Vrindavan was dear to her, she also wished to experience the sanctity of Gokul, where Krishna spent his early childhood.

2. Meeting Saints and Devotees – Gokul, like Vrindavan, was a hub of Krishna devotion, filled with saints and bhaktas. It is believed that Meerabai sought the company of like-minded devotees to further immerse herself in devotion.

3. Escape from Opposition – Some accounts suggest that her in-laws, the royal family of Mewar, disapproved of her devotion and way of life. She wandered across many sacred places, and Gokul became one of her destinations where she found refuge and spiritual solace.

4. Following Divine Will – Meerabai believed that Krishna was guiding her path. Her movement from Vrindavan to Gokul could have been inspired by an inner calling or divine vision.

Legends say that Meerabai eventually traveled to Dwarka, where she is believed to have merged into the idol of Lord Krishna, attaining eternal union with her beloved Lord.

Last song of Meerabai.

साजन, सुध ज्यूं जाणो लीजै हो।

1. तुम बिन मोरे और न कोई, क्रिपा रावरी कीजै हो॥

2. दिन नहीं भूख रैण नहीं निंदरा, यूं तन पल पल छीजै हो।

3. मीरा के प्रभु गिरधर नागर, मिल बिछड़न मत कीजै हो॥

Saajan, sudh jyoon jaano leejai ho

1. Tum bin more aur na koee, kripaa raavaree keejai ho

2. Din naheen bhookh rain naheen nindaraa, yoon tan pal pal chheejai ho

3. Meera ke prabhu giradhar naagar, mil bichhadan mat keejai ho.

This bhajan is considered her final declaration of exclusive devotion to Lord Krishna, rejecting all worldly ties. It reflects her deep surrender and ultimate union with Krishna. The lyrics express:

"I belong only to Giridhar Gopal , I have no one else.

I have abandoned my family, my worldly attachments, and even my royal identity.

My heart longs only for Krishna, and I have no other refuge."

Legend of Her Final Moments

According to popular belief, when Meerabai reached Dwarka, she was so absorbed in Krishna’s love that she merged into the idol of Lord Krishna inside the Dwarkadhish Temple. Some say she disappeared in a flash of divine light while singing this last song, leaving behind only her veil.

This marks the spiritual culmination of her life—an ultimate union with her beloved
