How can we write a python (with CPython) binding to a Java library so that the developers that want to use this java library can use it by writing only python code, not worrying about any Java code?

You could try this way:
If you definitely need to use CPython, then Apache Trift could be interesting for you: http://thrift.apache.org/ So you could make additional scalable abstraction layer and integrate your Java code with different languages (not only Python)
If you need a really low-level interface you could look at JNI http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jni/ for investigation. But I think it will take a lot of time to integrate your code with CPython using JNI.
