Jsk,
All of us know that Shri thakurji is fond of Mor-pankh.
But why Thakurji has given it place on His crown, What's the story behind that?
Jsk n Regards,
Monica.Jai Shree Krishna!!
Regards,
Monica.

peacock being most beautiful bird is still considered unattached to the maya
and away from physicall attachment to the female pehen
mayur pankh represents all three satvik rajsik and tamsik bhava
all three bhavs towards thakurji of the bhakts
are accepted by the lord as decoration of his head

Jay Jay Shree Gokulesh, Morpankh is symbol of nishkaambhaav. I heard a story in our stsg that at the time of Ramavtar, Shri Ram with Sitaji and Lakshaman were for vanvaas. After some time Sitaji was feeling very thursty ,but there were no signs of water nearby. Then suddenly they noticed a peacock(mor) and mor requested Shri Ram that he wanted to take them to a lake, He gave the permission.Then aage mor and pichhe all three…..!!!! They reached to the lake and Sitaji drank water. As mor is not used to walk so much distance in the continuous path i.e.it always stops in between so when reached the lake it was about to dye due to over-exertion . Ramji was very touched on the mor’s gesture and gave ashirwad to mor that in His next pragtya of Purnpurushottam swaroop Shri Krishna, He will wear morpankh on His mastak. Thus Prabhu gave honour to mor’s nishkaam bhakti, because the mor only thought of Shri Sitaji’s sukh and Sitaji was the most special for Ramji. Ramji had samarthya of producing lake at that moment but to give importance to the bhakta he did this leela.
Haripriya.

Jai Shree Krishna
Very very informative, Haripriyaji.
Also, During Pratham milan of Shree Mahaprabhuji and Shree Thakorji, when seva was established by Shree Vallabh, as desired by Shree Thakorji, the first Shree Mastak Shrungaar offered to Shreeji bawa was that of a paag with Morpankh on it.
The very first mala offered to Shreeji bawa was the Gunja mala.
Shree Vallabha dheesh ki jai

Jai Shree Krishna
Hey Monica you asked very good question.. I also want to know about this question.. And know I got it. Dadaji you have expalined very nicely...
Shreekantji I need to know about "Gunja Mala" ... why we are offering this.. I have heard one story about this Gunja Mala.. I don't know this in proper way but ..but then also I can try to tell you that..
One of the vaishnav was doing the seva and one time he forgot the gunja mala to our thokorji and then Our thokorji was not "Aaroge" the bhog afterwords he recognised that the ginja mala is not there...
I do't remember the full story but I had heard this when I was a kid..Please can you explain me this in briefly..
Thanks
Jai Jamunaji

Jai Shri Krishna,
A few words from a slightly different perspective... please excuse errors made due to ignorance and kindly point out any clarifications or corrections for the same.
The mor-pankh (Peacock feather) also represents Brahamacharya... pure celabicy (vairag, renunciation, etc). Thakorji is a pure celibate of the highest calibre - He never engages in sansar and is never effected by His own Maya, although He utilises the services of His Maya (There are many types of Mayas - His energies).
Hence it appears that He enjoys everything, He is a pure Vairagi (Renunciate)... as he is never attached to anything... Outwardly He may show that He is enjoying (such as His kingdom, citizens, parties, married life, chappan Bhog etc) but inwardly He is totally detached. Hence, the scholars have said that the mor-pankh is a subtle indication of this element also.
Best Wishes jagdish

One more addition,
What is the significance of Thakurji's Bansri? Why He likes that only music device?
