Shri Ekanatha Charitam II Vol III Book VIII Chp 11 Shlokas 25 - 29
अत्रान्तरे द्विजः कक्ष्चित्तीर्थयात्रापरायणः |
श्रीकृष्णदर्शनं कर्तुं द्वारक्मगमद्बत ||
अदृष्ट्वा तत्र सान्निध्यं कृष्णस्य करुणानिधेः |
तद्दर्शनार्थम् विप्रोपि तपक्ष्चक्रे दृढव्रतः ||
तदा स्वप्ने द्विजस्यापि भगवान् द्वारकापतिः |
आविर्भूय कृपासिन्धुरवोचद्भक्तवत्सलः ||
श्रीभगवानुवाच
अहं भक्तपराधीनः प्रतिष्ठानपुरे वसन् |
एकनाथस्य भक्तस्य कैङ्कर्यं हि करोमि च ||
तस्मात्तत्र समागत्य तं महात्मानमाश्राय |
क्लिश्यसे ब्राह्मण त्वं च किं वृथा तीर्थयात्रया ||
In the meantime, a Vedic scholarship on a pilgrimage reached Dwaraka to have Shri Krishna’s darshan. The Vedic scholar found that the divine presence of the compassionate Shri Krishna was missing in Dwaraka. Hence he engaged in very severe penance. At that time, the Lord of Dwaraka, the ocean of compassion and the one fond of the bhaktas, appeared in his dream and said the following
Shri Bhagavan said
I, who am under the control of the bhaktas, am at present living at Pratishtanapuram serving Ekanatha, a great devotee of Mine. Hence, you also come there and live in the sweet company of that bhakta. Unnecessarily do not trouble yourself going on a pilgrimage.
