Jai jai shri gokulesh,

Gadhmantra is "Sahastra Parivatsar.............." In the whole Gadhmantra there are 84 letters and the last 5 are "Panchakshar mantra". Panchaksharmantra is to be recited in front of Shri Thakoreji. In Brahmasambandh Mantra, there is Bhagwad Vakya, therefore Panchakshar Mantra is Gopniya (To be recited only in Aapras) and thus not been described fully.

In order to provide upliftment of Pushti Jivas, the divine being HIMSELF appeared before Shri Mahaprabhuji and gave him the Brahmasambandha diksha, and further promised him to accept all those beings/jeevs as his very own, (overlooking their doshas) to whom Shree Mahaprabhuji gave the Brahma Sambandha diksha.  Brahma Sambandha means " Establishment of the broken down relationship that remained so for thousands of years, between Jivatma and Paramatma through the means of Samarpana i.e., surrender. In other words to accept HIM once again as your Master.  To declare your servitude (dasatva) to HIM.

There is a provision of bringing an alliance through marriage to bring out the concept of Samarpana with love.  In this alliance a women accepts the state of servitude to a man and makes him her master.  For the comfort of her master (husband) a women (wife) surrenders her self through her mind body and money and offers seva and she believes that  the comfort of her husband are the primary considerations in life for her and with that notion in mind she dedicates herself in his seva.

The same concept can be seen in Brahma Sambandha in a transcendental form Jivatma consides himself as the servant of Paramatma.  He accepts HIM as his Master.  In marriage ceremoney three aspects are important viz., a Brahman to perform the rites, fire to stand as witness, and saptapadi - i.e., seven steps to conjugal union.

In Brahma Sambandha the part of a Purohit is played by "Tulsi" - Basil leaves.  I performs the "Hasta Melaps" - holding the hand for life - between the Bhakta and devine being.  Here Shri Mahaprabhuji stands for the form of fire (Agni) to act as a witness.  In his presence a jiva utters the Mantra of Brahma Sambandha which stands for "Sapta padi" process.  Through this mantra he promises that he surrender his complete body, mind , all members of the family, all his wealth, this life, all the lives to come in future, all kinds of activities along with his atma to Shri Krishna.  He recites the "Panchakshara Mantra" three times and accepts a complete and unconditional "Saranagati"  of Shri Krishna with his speech, conduct and thoughts.
