AASURVYAMOH LEELA
On Aashad Sud 3, Sunday in the afternoon the 52 year old Shri Vallabh decided to discard his mortal guise and become one with the supreme Lord.
He entered the Ganges at Hanuman Ghat and stood with water upto his waist, eyes closed and his lips uttering the name of the Lord and his entire being
concentrated on the Lord and in the presence of his family members and all the onlookers, a great ball of Fire arose within Vallabh and encompassing Shri
Vallabh and burst forth towards the sun and merged with it.
On this day, every Vaishnav anoits the Chitraji or Swaroop of Shri Vallabh with Kum Kum and adorns him with a garland of Flowers.

SOME KEY INCEDENTS - VAARTA PRASANG
Once when Shri Vallabh went to Ujjain he stayed at the Ashram of sage Sandipani.The ashram was situated at a very barren area,there was not a single tree
nearby.When Shri Vallabh was doing Sandhya-vandan a leaf from a peepal tree fell infront of him. Shri Vallabh inserted into the soil and poured some
water and a miracle happened,instantly a large green peepal tree sprung from the ground! Shri Vallabh completed his Bhagvat parayan beneath this tree.
Once when Shri Vallabh went to Bahulavan the local Vrajwasis complained to him that the Muslim commander did now let them worship the idol of the
cow Bahula arguing that he would allow them to worship it only if the stone idol ate grass. Shri Vallabh called the Muslim commander and infornt of him
kept a small bunch of grass near the tail of the idol Bahula.To the astonishment of the commander the idol turned it's neck and ate the bunch!! On seeing
this the commander apologised to Shri Vallabh and lifted the ban on the worship of the idol.
