Ramakrishna Charitam III Vol III Book X Chp 4 Shlokas 17 - 23
कदाचिद्रामकृष्णस्तु हरिकीर्तनतत्परः |
ननर्त जाह्नवीतीरे प्रेमभक्तिरसोन्मदः ||
तं दृष्ट्वा प्रेमसंपूर्णं पुलकाङ्कितविग्रहम् |
रामकृष्णं पुरीन्द्रोपि परिहासं चकार सः ||
तोतापुरीन्द्र उवाच
निर्विकल्पसमाधिञ्च प्राप्य त्वं साधको यथा |
किमर्थं कीर्तनं करोषि ज्ञानिनां वर ||
अपूपास्फालानं त्वेवं मूढानामेव सौख्यदम् |
अस्माकं योगिवर्याणां करतालेन किं सुखम् ||
परमहंस उवाच
हन्त कैवल्यनिष्ठेन त्वयैवं हरिकीर्तनम् |
विनिन्दितं वाञ्छितं तच्छुकेनापि महात्मना ||
मुक्तानामपि सिद्धानां तस्य माया दुरत्यया |
मायया पीडिताः प्रापुः कोपञ्च सनकादयः ||
तस्मात्सर्वस्वभावेन भजेन्मायाविनं हरिम् |
तत्प्रसादेन तन्मायां जयेत्क्लेषविवर्जितः ||
Once, Ramakrishna was overwhelmed with prima Bhakti and out of uncontrollable joy, he started dancing on the banks of the Ganga. Looking at Ramakrishna so excited with his hairs standing one end, Totapuri made fun of him.
Totapuri said
Why do you sing the praise of Shri Hari and dance so like a seeker (on the spiritual path) even after attaining Nirvikalpa Samadhi? Only the foolish take pleasure in clapping hands like this. What joy do we yogis derive from the clapping of hands (kara tala) ?
The Paramahamsa said
Alas! With all your desire to reach Kaivalya, you are mocking at Hari Kiran, which was held in great esteem even by Saint Shuka. Lord Hari's Maya is formidable even to the multis and siddhas. Even the pious Sanakas got angry clouded by this Maya. Hence all seekers should at all costs worship Lord Hari. It is very easy to overcome His Maya with His grace.
