Gopi Geet appears in the 10th skandha of Srimad Bhagawat wherein the beautiful stories of the life of Lord Sri Krishna are related.
The devotion of the gopies was unparallel and Bhagawan Krishna promised them that He will have RAS-The divine dance with them.
During the RAS, the gopies were proud, thinking themselves to be the most fortunate and the best among all the women in the universe.
Bhagawan never likes the sense of pride specially in His devotees. He disappeared then and there. The gopies started searching for Him. Not finding the beloved Lord, they started crying and calling Him to appear again.
This call- a song full of love and devotion in Krishna viraha is the Gopi Geet. There are 19 shlokas in Gopi geet. Bhagawan reappeared after it was sung.
It is said that if a devotee chants the Gopi Geet daily with love and devotion, sooner or later, Bhagawan Krishna is bound to give darshan.
It is considered to be the most beautiful part of Bhagawat. In all Bhagawat saptah katha, we can hear the speakers singing it. Sri Ramesh Bhai Oza’s Gopi Geet can be found in You Tube through the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UqC13RZLYQ4
If you find the Sanskrit chanting difficult, here is the verse to verse Hindi translation and you can also follow the meaning of what you are chanting. It can be sung in the same tune.
The last one is not in the original text. It is my cry Bhagawan Sri Krishna.
