NRSIMHANANDA BRAHMACARI'S JEWEL ROAD

When Sri Nrsimhananda Brahmacari heard that Lord Caitanya would go to Vṛndāvana, he became very pleased and mentally began decorating the way there.

First he contemplated a broad road starting from the city of Kuliyă. Then he bedecked the road with jewels, upon which he then laid a bed of stemless flowers. He mentally decorated both sides of the road with bakula flower trees, and at intervals on both sides he placed lakes of a transcendental nature. These lakes had bathing places constructed with jewels, and they were filled with blossoming lotus flowers. There were various birds chirping, and the water was exactly like nectar. The entire road was surcharged with many cool breezes, which carried the fragrances from various flowers. He carried the construction of this road as far as Kanai Natasală.
