Jay shree krushn
VIRAHANAND = VIRAHA + ANAND
VIRAH = NOT WITH US OR AWAY FROM US
when Shree thakorji is not with us it is VIRAH.
In virah we can do smaran of Thakorji's lila and have anand of these lila.
so VIRAHANAND is the anand in virah.
correct me if i am wrong

Jai Shri Krishna,
You are correct Vaibhavbhai.
Virahanand is a state of being known only to the top-most devotees of the Lord. The devotee, unable to bear a moment away from God experiences pangs of seperations.
It is the joy of the sorrow of the seperation.

Jai Shri Krishna
While Seva one have many experinces of Thakorji and many a times Thakorji indicates his likings and provide experineces of acceptances with various Bhav. When such experiences become the way of life , sevak wishes Thakorji's nearness all the times and cannot live without him as is the case with a lover in wordly life (always in rememberances). This is also the stage of top most devotee. This is known as VIRAHANAND and as I undertand Swamini Radhaji & Vraj Gopikanyas are GURU who are experiencing this in lila.
Jai Shree Krishna
