Sri Jayadev spent his last life at Banaras
and left his mortal body.
Once, Jayadev felt weak due to his old
age on the way going to Ganga after performing
the call of nature and took rest on the way. The
king requested him to avail a conveyance to go
to Ganga at this old age, but he declined and
pleaded that according to his ability he will
proceed to Ganga and take bath. At night,
Jayadev dreamed Ganga in the form of a lady
who approached him saying that henceforth from
the morning for all the time, I will reside in the
well, used by Jayadev. The fact became true. Next
day, Jayadev narrated the story and with
Padmavati, the king and the queen went to the
well to take bath. Jayadev worshipped Ganga.
He while reciting the Mantras before taking bath
found that the water of the well swelled up high,
the colour of the water changed and became as
transparent as white as milk. People were
surprised at this and Jayadev's eyes became filled
with tears of joy, worshipped the Ganga and took
his bath. This is the devotion of the great Jayadev.
At Kashi (Banaras) when he was residing
and moving alongwith the king of Kasi, at
Manikarnikar Ghat on the bank of sacred Ganga,
a lady was found following her dead husband's
body. Jayadev remarked that this is not sign of a
chaste lady, because a chaste lady can not bear
the life for a moment on the death of her husband.
The king did not relish the words and made query
whose wife is of this nature. Jayadev claimed that
his wife Padmabati is like this. To test the veracity,
the king sent a detective to observe the real fact.
That messanger detective confided to Padmabati
that her husband, the poet Jayadev was dead due
to capsizing of the boat in the Ganga when he
was making boat journey with king and got
drowned in heavy current of the Ganga. On
hearing the death news of her beloved husband
Padmabati left her life out of severe sorrow due
to separation. The queen of Kashiraj felt much.
Jayadev, when knew the fact became
unconscious. Jayadev, after gaining consciousness
addressed the goddess of learning to be messenger
to establish eternal love between them. Being
appeased, goddess Saraswati went to Radha and
Sri Krishna and told that both Sri Krishna and
Radha are cupid affected. They require
conjugation. She eulogized that chanting sacred
name of Krishna can repeated to the ward off
evil and to ensure sacred life. At this, Sri Krishna
advised Saraswati to repeat the lines of
Gitagovinda "Priye, Charusile" before Sri Radha
as a messenger. Saraswati repeated this verse
before Padmabati, who is recognised as Radha
in another form incarnated. Then, Padmabati
regained consciousness, got life, became reunited
with Jayadev, the human incarnation of Lord
Krishna (Jagannath) and both of them sang
Gitagovinda while dancing in ecstacy before Lord
and vanished from the world.
Thus, the miracle ridden life of the divine
couple disappeared from human eyes at Kashi
by having permanent union.
