Answer
Dear Gopal Roy,
Govardhana is Krishna Himself in the form of a mountain. Therefore there is no difference between a Shila and Krishna Himself.
It is highly recommended that you receive guidance from your Guru Maharaja on how to worship it. The level and quality of worship is high and one has to know how to do it.
Also the Shila should be given by such an elevated devotee and not that you personally pick one up going to Govardhana.
Personally I would’t recommend such a worship from any of my disciples as it is very easy to make offences.
Govardhana is the most wonderful place in the whole universe. There is no another place like Govardhana. So keep Giri Govardhana Maharaja always in you heart.
