AtTheEnd
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
only
support
and
rebuked
the
instructions
of
her
in-laws
to
give
up
her
worship
of
Giridhar
Gopal.
Her
grief
turned
into
a
passionate
spiritual
devotion
that
inspired
in
her
countless
poems
drenched
with
separation
and
longing.
Meera's
love
to
Krishna
was
at
first
a
private
thing
but
at
some
moment
it
overflowed
into
an
ecstasy
that
led
her
to
sing
and
dance
in
public
and
other
religious
folk.
She
would
quietly
leave
the
Chittor
fort
at
night
and
join
Satsangs
(religious
get
togethers)
in
the
town
below.
Her
brother-in-law,
the
new
ruler
of
Chittorgarh,
Vikramaditya,
was
a
cruel
youth
who
strongly
objected
to
Meera's
devotion,
her
mixing
with
commoners
and
carelessness
of
feminine
modesty.
Vikramaditya
made
several
attempts
to
kill
Meera.[2] Her
sister-in-law
Uda
bai
is
said
to
have
spread
defamatory
gossip.
According
to
some
myths
Meera's
brother-in-law
Vikramaditya,
who
later
became
king
of
Chittor,
after
Bhojraj's
death,
tried
to
harm
Meera
in
many
ways,
such
as:
The
famous
one
is
that
he
mixed
poison
in
the
prasadam
or
charna-amritam
of
Krishna
and
made
her
drink
it.
But
by
God's
grace,
Krishna
changed
it
to
Amrit.
He
pinned
iron
nails
in
Meera's
bed,
but,
again
by
God's
grace
they
turned
into
rose
petals.
As
she
explains
in
one
of
her
couplets
'
शूल
सेज
राणा
नै
भेजी
,
दीज्यो
मीरां
सुलाय
/
सांझ
भई
मिरां
सोवन
लागी
,
मानों
फूल
बिछाय
'
He
put
a
snake
in
a
flower
basket
and
told
her
that
it
was
a
gift
from
him
to
her
Lord,
but
when
she
opened
it
actually
became
a
gift-
a
garland.
There
are
many
more
in
a
similar
vein.
At
some
time
Meera
declared
herself
a
disciple
of
the
guru Ravidas[3] ("guru
miliyaa
raidasjee").
After
unbearable
torture
she
left
Chittor.
First
she
went
to
Merta
where
she
was
still
not
satisfied
and
after
sometime
left
for
the
centre
of Krishnaism, Vrindavan.
She
considered
herself
to
be
a
reborn gopi,
Lalita,
mad
with
love
for
Krishna.
Folklore
informs
us
of
a
particular
incident
where
she
expressed
her
desire
to
engage
in
a
discussion
about
spiritual
matters
with Rupa
Goswami,
a
direct
disciple
of Chaitanya and
one
of
the
foremost
saints
of
Vrindavan
at
that
time
who,
being
a
renunciate
celibate,
refused
to
meet
a
woman.
Meera
replied
that
the
only
true
man
(purusha)
in
this
universe
is
Lord
Krishna.[4] She
continued
her
pilgrimage,
"danced
from
one
village
to
another
village,
almost
covering
the
whole
north
of
India".[5] One
story
has
her
appearing
in
the
company
of Kabir in Kashi,
once
again
causing
affront
to
social
mores.
She
seems
to
have
spent
her
last
years
as
a
pilgrim
in Dwarka, Gujarat.
It
is
said
that
Mirabai
disappeared
into
the
Dwarkadhish
Murti
(Image
of
Lord
Krishna)
in
front
of
a
full
audience
of
onlookers.
Poetry
Meera's
songs
are
in
a
simple
form
called
a
ch'
(verse),
a
term
used
for
a
small
spiritual
song,
usually
composed
in
simple
rhythms
with
a
repeating
refrain,
collected
in
her
Padavali
.
The
extant
versions
are
in
a Rajasthani and
Braj
,
a
dialect
of Hindi spoken
in
and
aroundVrindavan (the
childhood
home
of
Krishna),
sometimes
mixed
with
Rajasthani.
That
dark
dweller
in
Braj
Is
my
only
refuge.
O
my
companion,
worldly
comfort
is
illusion,
As
soon
you
get
it,
it
goes.
I
have
chosen
the
indestructible
for
my
refuge,
Him
whom
the
snake
of
death
will
not
devour.
My
beloved
dwells
in
my
heart
all
day,
I
have
actually
seen
that
abode
of
joy.
Meera's
lord
is
Hari,
the
indestructible.
My
lord,
I
have
taken
refuge
with
you,
your
maidservant
"Rang
barse
o
meeran
,bhawan
main
rang
barse.
Kun
e
meera
tero
mandir
chinayo,
kun
chinyo
tero
devro..
Rang
barse
o
meeran
,bhawan
main
rang
barse"
Although
Meera
is
often
classed
with
the
northern
Sant
bhaktis
who
spoke
of
a formless divinity,[1] the-
re
is
no
doubt
that
she
presents
Krishna
as
the
historical
master
of
the Bhagavad
Gita who
is,
even
so,
the
perfect Avatar of
the
eternal,
who
is
omnipresent
but
particularly
focused
in
his
icon
and
his
temple.
She
speaks
of
a
personal
relationship
with
Krishna
as
her
lover,
lord
and
master.
The
characteristic
of
her
poetry
is
complete
surrender.
Her
longing
for
union
with
Krishna
is
predominant
in
her
poetry:
she
wants
to
be
"coloured
with
the
colour
of
dusk"
(the
symbolic
colour
of
Krishna).Her
style
of
literature
is
mainly
Rajasthani
mixed
with
Brij
language.
But
one
can
also
see
a
hint
of
Gujarati
as
well
as
Punjabi
in
her
writings.
Folk
In
many
regions
of Rajasthan,
bhajans
of
Meera
are
still
common
in
religious
night
gathering
known
as
'Ratijuga
'(
रातीजौगा
)
organized
by
women.
