The Evidence from Sruti for Lord Caitanya

Svetasvatara Upanisad 3.12

The Personality of Godhead, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, is brilliantly effulgent and imperishable like molten gold. He is the Supreme Controller. He controls the modes of goodness and through sankirtana bestows spiritual intelligent on the living beings. In the guise of a sannyasi, He is the source of spiritual purity and of liberation. He is therefore known as "Mahäprabhu".

TEXT 2

Evidence From Bhagavatam for Lord Caitanya

Bhag. 11.5.32

In the age of Kali, Krsna appears in a golden form, chanting the two syllables krs-na. He descends along with His weapons, limbs, saktis, and eternal confidential associates. Those with intelligence worship Him with the sankirtana yajna.

TEXT 3

Bhag. 10.8.13

This boy, Krsna, has three other colors: white, red and yellow, as He appears in different ages. Now, in this Dvapara-yuga, he has appeared in a transcendental blackish color.

TEXT 4

Bhag. 7.9.38

[Prahlada said] O Krsna, in this way You appear in various incarnations: as a human being, an animal, a great saint, a demigod, a fish, or a tortoise, thus maintaining the entire creation in different planetary systems. In this way, according to the age, You protect the principles of religion, but, O Mahaprabhu, in the age of Kali, You do not assert Yourself as the Supreme Personality of Godhead. Because Your incarnation is hidden in the age of Kali You are known as Triyuga, or the Lord who manifests His supremacy in only three ages.

TEXT 5

Evidence From Mahabharata for Sri Caitanya

Mahabharata, Dan-dharma ch. 149

When Krsna appears as Lord Gauranga, in His early pastimes His complexion is golden (suvarna-varna), His limbs are the color of molten white gold (hemanga), His body is extremely beautiful (varangaç), and He is decorated with sandalwood pulp (candanangadi).

Sri Caitanya accepts sannyasa (sannyasa-krit), and shows equanimity (sama). He is peaceful (santa). His mind is always fixed on Krsna, and thus He is nistha, or fixed, in performing the great sacrifice of holy name of Krsna. He silences the non-devotees and impersonalists who are opposed to the service of the Lord, by promoting the cause of devotion. Thus He distributes real peace. He is therefore an abode of the highest spiritual peace and devotion.

TEXT 6

Evidence of the Puranas for Lord Caitanya


C.c. Adi 3.83[The Supreme Lord said to Vyasadeva] O learned brahmana, sometimes I accepted the renounced order of life to induce the fallen people of the age of Kali to accept devotional service to the Lord.

TEXT 7

Adi Purana

O best of the brahmanas. My disguised form is eternal. In this way, with My own form hidden from ordinary sight I take the form of a devotee and appear among the people in general in order to establish and protect religious principles.

TEXT 8

The Version of the Gosvamis

Tattva-sandarbha 2

I take shelter of Sri Krisna Caitanya Mahaprabhu, who is Krisna Himself, thinking of Himself. He is internally Kåñëa - blackish - but externally, He appears in golden complexion. In this age of Kali, Krisna appears as Krisna Caitanya, simultaneously manifesting His eternal associates, opulences, expansions, and incarnations. In this way, He preaches the process of Krisna Consciousness by performing sankirtana.

TEXT 9

Gauranga’s Tattva, Näma, Rüpa and Lila.

C.c. Mad. 19.53

His nature (tattva), is that He is Krisna Himself. His name (nama) is Krisna Caitanya. His form (rupa) is golden. His quality (guna) is that He is the most magnanimous of all incarnations. His pastime (lila) is to distribute the highest love of Godhead - krisna-prema. I offer my obeisances unto that most generous Lord, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

TEXT 10

Lord Gauranga’s Preaching Pastimes

C.c. Antya 5.84-87

To vanquish the false pride of so-called sannyasis and learned scholars, He spread real religious principles, even through a shudra. Lord Caitanya preached about devotional service, ecstatic love, and the Absolute Truth by making Ramananda Raya, a grihastha from a low family, the speaker. Then the Lord, an exalted brahmana sannyasi, and Pradyumna Misra, the purified brahmana, both heard from Ramananda Raya. The Lord exhibited the glories of the Holy Name of Krisna through Haridasa Thakura, who was born in a muslim family. Similarly, He exhibited the essence of devotional service through Sanatana Gosvami, who was almost converted to Islam. The Lord also fully exhibited the ecstatic love and transcendental pastimes of Vrindavana through Srila Rupa Gosvami. Considering all this, who can understand the deep plans of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu?

TEXT 11

Gauranga’s Principle and Ultimate Goals

Cc. Adi 4.36-41

Just as Krisna appeared in order to manifest His Vrindavana pastimes and His suppression of demons was incidental in the same way promulgating the dharma for the age is an incidental reason for Lord Caitanya’s appearance. When He desired to appear for another reason, the time for promulgating the religion of the age also rose. Thus with two intentions, the Lord appeared with His devotees and tasted the nectar of prema along with which the congregational chanting of the holy name. He spread sankirtana even among untouchables. He wove a wreath of the holy name and prema with which He garlanded the entire world. In this way, assuming the sentiment of a devotee, He preached devotional service while practicing it Himself.

TEXT 12

Sri Gauranga’s Eternal Reason for Appearing

C.c. Adi 1.4

May that Lord who is known as the son of Srimati Sacidevi be transcendentally situated in the inner-most chambers of your heart. Resplended with the radiance of molten gold He has appeared in the age of Kali by His causeless mercy to bestow what no incarnation ever offered before - the most sublime and radiant spiritual knowledge of the mellow taste of His service.

TEXT 13

Lord Gauranga’s Confidential Reason for Appearing

Cc. Adi 1.6

Desiring to understand the glory of Srimati Radharani’s love, the wonderful qualities in Him that She alone relishes through Her love, and the happiness she feels when she realizes the sweetness of His Love, Lord Hari, richly endowed with Her emotions, appear from the womb of Sacidevi as the moon appears from the ocean.

TEXT 14

Internally He has the Mood of Sri Radha, Externally He Preaches the holy Name

Cc. Adi 4.220

Lord Caitanya appeared with the sentiments of Sri Radha. He preached the dharma of this age, the chanting of the holly name of Krisna, and pure love of Godhead (Krisna-prema).

TEXT 15

The Pastimes of Sri Caitanya are Eternal

C. Bhag. Mad. 23.513

As yet, no one can completely see the opulences of all the pastimes Lord Caitanya performed, because they are without limit in time and space. They are unlimited and eternal.

TEXT 16

Gauranga is not the Enjoyer of the Rasa Dance

C. Bhag. 15.28-31

The Lord was apt to indulge in indiscriminate, merciful behavior towards all, except that He never looked at woman, even by a sidelong glance. It is known to all the world that He didn’t even allow the name of a women to enter His ear. Those who are His real devotees, therefore, never address Sri Gauranga as "Sri Gauranga-nagari", or the enjoyer of women. Although all forms of praise are applicable to the Lord, the wise sing only what is in accordance with His nature.

TEXT 17

The Glories of the Mercy of Gaura-Nitai

C.c. Adi 8.31,32

If one only chants with some slight faith the holy names of the Lord Caitanya and Lord Nityananda, very quickly he is cleansed of all offenses. Thus, as soon as he chants the Hare Krisna Maha-mantra, he feels the ecstasy of love of Godhead. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, the independent Supreme Personality of Godhead is very magnanimous. Unless one worships Him, one can never liberated.

TEXT 18

Gauranga’s Teachings in a Nutshell

Visvanatha Cakravarti Thakura

It is the conclusive opinion of Lord Caitanya that Lord Sri Krisna, who is Vrajendra-nandana, is the Supreme Personality of Godhead Himself, the topmost worshipable Deity; Vrindavana-dhama which is an expansion of Krisna and non-different from Him is the highest worshipable abode; the gopis are the highest example of the worship of Sri Krisna; Srimad-Bhagavatam is the spotless evidence for knowing the absolute truth; krisna-premais the fifth and highest goal of life.. These are the teachings of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu in a nutshell.

5) Gaura’s movements, Gaura’s nature, Gaura’s smiling face, Gaura’s love, Gaura’s full form – all enter my heart.

6) Gaura is my dharma, Gaura is the object of my karma, Gaura is the essence of the Vedas. I surrender my life at Gaura’s lotus feet. It is Gaura who will take me across (the ocean of material existence).

7) Gaura is the essential sound vibration and wealth for that person in whose heart He manifests. Narahari dasa always prays to take shelter at the feet of such a person.

Krishna-prema - AMOR PURO

BhaktiBallabh Tirtha Goswami Maharaj

God has appeared as His Name. All strength has been given to His Name to rescue the fallen souls of this kaliyuga. You have to accept the instructions of the Supreme Lord. Sri Krishna, in the mood of Srimati Radharani, appeared as Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and preached that by means of Sri nama sankirtana, we can obtain krishna-prema.

We have been born into this kali-yuga. Unlike the other previous yugas - satya, treta and dvapara - there are three kinds of adharmas in this era: a lack of tapah (austerity), saucam (cleanliness) and daya (mercy).


Only one dharma remains: satyam (truthfulness). Satyam is the Holy Name. Yet, we can easily get Krishna in this kali-yuga because the Lord has graced the fallen souls of this era and given them the easiest way.

Nitai Gouranga!

With the help of the Guru, the Scriptures, and the previous experienced persons, I shall try to stand the test, that “Yes, because the bile is so, everything is tasting bitter. But this process will remove the bile. I shall have to wait for some time, and when the bile is gone, I shall taste sugar candy as sweet.”

When normal, I will be able to feel that so many sweet waves are coming from all around to me. Maya santusta manasah, sarvvah sukhamaya disah (Bhagavatam, 11.14.12) “For one who is satisfied with Me, then all the directions, all the four directions will bring only good news to him.” All waves will carry only welfare to that person who is satisfied with God only and nothing else. “I want God, and His interests are my interest. He is the loving father, guardian, or friend of everyone.”

Now we are distracted and have many different interests, but if we can put God’s interest in the centre, then we shall be able to find, to read, that from all directions only good news is coming to me – no bad or unfavourable news. All favourable news will come to me if I can be on that level, that plane, if my ego can take a stand there. In that universal wave, every vibration will only carry favourable news to me. Maya santusta manasah, “He who is satisfied with Me alone, sarvvah sukhamaya disah, he will see that all the directions are only carrying happy news to him, cent-per-cent good news”. So a readjustment is necessary, and religion means proper adjustment. We are now incorrectly adjusted and are concerned with different types of separate interests; that is the difficulty. We have to change and find out the universal interest. That universal wave is the most fundamental current.

Sa vai pumsam paro dharmmo: The highest type of duty for everyone is yato bhaktir adhoksaje, that your attention, your submission will go to Adhoksaja, that unknown universal guardian. Ahaituky-apratihata: this submission is causeless and can never be opposed. The original vibration is forever existing. It is self-existent: none can have created that. It is eternally continuing. and none can oppose it – that wave is irresistible. Try to identify your interest with that wave. That is bhakti, bhakti proper. This is the definition of bhakti: sa vai pumsam paro dharmmo; the highest duty of everyone, every soul, is this. That bhakti is adhoksaja. Your attention, your interest should be diverted towards the infinite, to the unknown, to the unknown quarter, up to the Nth degree. The mathematicians speak of calculating, continuing to the Nth degree. But this is beyond the Nth degree. Yato bhaktir adhoksaje. What are its qualities? Ahaituki and apratihata. Ahaituki: No hetu, no cause; it is causeless. And that is eternal, apratihata; it can never be stopped. None can oppose it; none can give any hindrance to it. It is so forceful and continuous, forcefully continuous, that none can stop it.

Such is the original vibration, and that is all sweet, all-accommodating, and all-embracing. So this is the advice of Bhagavatam and Mahaprabhu, and there we will find the wave of love, prema. This is most accommodating – comprehensive. And fulfillment is given in that way: bhakti, prema-bhakti – love. Without love, none can be, none can hold a dignified position. Everything else is defective – only love is perfect. Justice is also defective. Justice comes to divide things between many; no unity results. This is the position of justice. But above that is the land of affection, the land of love: prema-bhumi. Love only can be the most comprehensive cause; that can accommodate or harmonize anything and everything. Love is the most generous, the most accommodating, and the most fulfilling.

This is the conclusion of the Srimad-Bhagavatam, which has been conceived as the ripe fruit of the Veda. The ripe fruit of the Veda means that it is revealed truth. Revealed truth is that which does not originate from the experience of so many fallen souls, from their limited brains. No, it is coming from above, from the land of the eternally extended truth. And ripe fruit means it is in its full-fledged position: the highest conception of love. There we will find love, beauty, affection, mercy, charm. They are all similar, of the same taste and kind.

Our soul must go to that land of love. This body will remain here. Our mind which is always seeking the limited happiness of this world will also be dissolved. They will all disappear. At the present, the body and the mind are our ‘property’. But the inner factor, the soul – that conscious unit which is within us – can only be a member of that soil. Soul is our proper self, and these other things are all encasements. The mental system and the physical system are encasements, and they want this mortal world. That is their misconception.

SRIMATI VISHNUPRIYA DEVI


De Jornal Hare Krsna Brasil

O Senhor Supremo tem três shaktis (potências) internas diferentes: Sri, Bhu e Nila. Bhu shakti apareceu como SRIMATI VISHNUPRIYA DEVI na Gaura lila para auxiliar o movimento de sankirtana de Sri Chaitanya. O Rei de Satrajit, pai de Satyabhama na Krishna lila, apareceu na Gauranga lila como o brahmana Sanatana Mishra, pai de Vishnuprya Devi.

Srimati Vishnuprya Devi transbordava todas as boas qualidades. Sua beleza sobrepujava a da deusa da fortuna. Era devotada a seus pais e seguia as injunções escriturais obedientemente. Regularmente ela adorava Tulasi Devi, e observava votos de austeridades tais como tomar banho três vezes por dia no Ganges.

Sempre que encontrava com Saci Mata no Ganges, Vishnupriya se curvava humildemente aos pés dela. Saci Devi freqüentemente pensava que a bela e casta Vishnupriya daria uma noiva ideal para seu filho Nimai. Depois que Lakshmipriya Devi, primeira esposa do Senhor Chaitanya, “morreu em separação do Senhor,” Nimai Pandit casou com Srimati Vishnupriya Devi. O Chaitanya Mangala e Chaitanya Bhagavata dão elaboradas descrições deste casamento dos mais auspiciosos.

Buddhimanta Khan, um rico proprietário de terras, arcou com todas despesas do opulento e régio casamento do Casal Divino, Vishnupriya e Sri Nimai Pandit. Toda as pessoas de Navadvipa e das aldeias circumvizinhas vieram para o casamento. Durante a cerimônia todos olhos se voltaram para o Casal Divino, como que para devotar a beleza ímpar de Vishnupriya e Nimai Pandit.

Os Vaisnavas cantavam as glórias de Hari. Os brahmanas fizeram um círculo em torno do Senhor e cantaram os Vedas. Um mar de júbilo inundou as quatro direções. Aqueles que não se afogaram simplesmente flutuavam em bem-aventurança. Além do casamento, Vrindavana Dasa Thakura não elabora sobre os passatempos de Vishnupriya.

No Chaitanya Mangala, Lochana Dasa Thakura conta passatempos não mencionados em mais nenhum lugar. Ele narra a última conversa, especialmente tocante, que o Senhor Gauranga teve com Vishnupriya Devi na noite antes que Ele tomasse sannyasa:

“Numa voz embargada de emoção, Vishnupriya disse: “Diga-me, ó Prananatha (Senhor da minha vida), é verdade o rumor que ouvi de que irás tomar sannyasa e deixar-me? Se eu perder Tua associação então bem que posso acabar com minha vida bebendo veneno.”

Respondendo com misericordiosas palavras gentis, Sri Gaura Raya disse: “Vishnupriya, Me és tão cara quanto a própria vida. Não há necessidade de ficares preocupada. Por favor ouça o que estou pra te dizer, pois isso irá te ajudar. A única verdade nesse mundo é Bhagavan e os Vaisnavas. Tudo o mais é ilusão. Pais, mães, filhos, relacionamentos entre homens e mulheres são todos ilusórios. Krishna é o senhor, o verdadeiro marido de todos. Não lamente, não fique preocupada; teu nome é Vishnupriya. Portanto, realize o real significado de Vishnupriya e sempre pense em Krishna dentro de teu coração.”

Então Sri Gaurasundara mostrou Sua forma de quatro braços, a qual ajudou Vishnupriya a entender Sua posição absoluta. Ao ver isso, a dor e tristeza de Vishnupriya foram vencidas. Ela se sentiu bem-aventurada. Esta visão e as instruções de Mahaprabhu removeram seu atordoamento. Porém ela manteve a mentalidade de tomar o Senhor por seu marido.

Gemendo, chorando e caindo aos pés de lótus do Senhor Chaitanya, ela disse: “Suplico-Te que aceites minha humilde submissão. Tu és o mais querido Senhor de minha vida, minha única fortuna. Sem Ti, sem Teu serviço não tenho nada.”

O Senhor Gauranga abraçou Vishnupriya com Seus olhos. Ele deu misericórdia a ela com estas palavras: “Vou viajar aqui e acolá. Mas onde quer que Eu vá, sempre permanecerei onde você estiver.”

Compreendendo a natureza supremamente independente do Senhor Gaura, Vishnupriya disse: “Deves fazer o que Te faz feliz, Meu Senhor. Que ninguém seja um obstáculo à Tua divina missão.” (Chaitanya Mangala)

Depois que Sri Nimai Pandit deixou Navadvipa, Vishnupriya adotou uma vida austera e devotada. Ela ficou tão delgada quanto a lua crescente antes da lua nova (Amavasya). Seguindo uma rígida prática espiritual (sadhana), ela separava um grão de arroz para cada volta de Hare Krishna que cantava em seu rosário (japa). De noite, Vishnupriya cozinhava esses grãos, oferecia-os para sua Deidade pessoal de Mahaprabhu, e honrava os restos. Atualmente conhecida como Dhamesvara Mahaprabhu, a vistosa Deidade de Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu reside na cidade de Navadvipa. Sriman Mahaprabhu recebe adoração regular e dá ilimitada misericódia.”.


Gaura Purmina 2011

O Senhor Caitanya é Krsna no humor de Radharani


"Existe um facto inexplicável em relação a inclinação natural das Gopis. As Gopis nunca querem desfrutar elas mesmas de Krsna pessoalmente." Cc Madhya 8-207 Radharani é a mais exaltada devota de Sri Krsna. E portanto, Ela é a mais misericordiosa. Ela insiste para que as Manjaris desfrutem com Krsna, ao invés Dela mesma. Ela está ansiosa por ocupar todas as outras entidades no serviço à Krsna.

O Senhor Caitanya é Krsna no humor de Radharani, e assim é a encarnação mais misericordiosa, porque Radharani é a mais misericordiosa. No Ujjvala Nilamani, Sri Rupa Goswami, excplica que existem três tipos de Sakhis. 1 - Samasneha - devotadas igualmente à Krsna e Radha. 2 - Krsna Snehadhika - mais devotadas à Krsna do que à Radha. 3 - Radha Snehadhika (Manjaris) - mais devotadas à Radha do que à Krsna.

Tais Manjaris nunca buscam seu próprio prazer. Sentem mais prazer em propiciar o encontro entre Radha e Krsna do que sua própria associação pessoal (Anga Sanga) com Krsna. E ainda que Krsna deseje e Radha insista, uma Manjari nunca aceitará a associação pessoal de Krsna.
"Embora as associadas de Radharani não esperem nenhuma atenção especial de Krsna, Radharani esta tão satisfeita com elas, que Ela faz arranjos para que as damas de Vraja encontrem-se com Krsna......Ela sente mais prazer com estes encontros do que com Seus próprios encontros com Krsna." (Srila Prabhupada - Ensinamentos Do Senhor Caitanya)

"A felicidade das Gopis aumentam dez milhões de vezes, quando ocupadas em servir Sri Sri Radha Krsna nos Seus passatempos transcedentais." Cc Madhya 8-208 No entanto, devido a forte identificação (Bhava Tadatmya) das Manjaris com Radha, elas vivenciam todos os sintomas extáticos de Radha nelas mesmas, inclusive Prema Vilasa Vivarta (Atracção intensa (Anuraga) que elimina a percepção de diferença de Radha com Krsna) Cc Madhya 8.192 Antes de Sri Caitanya, outros como Jayadeva Goswami, Candidasa, Vidyapati já haviam mencionado sobre Madhurya Rasa, mas somente com Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu e Seus associados, o conceito de Manjari Bhava ou Radha Dasya seria delineado. Krsna aparece como Caitanya para entender o humor de Radharani.

Radharani aparece como Caitanya para distribuir a capacidade de dar prazer à Krsna espalhando amor à Deus.

Radha Krsna Eka Atma


Radha Krsna Eka Atma, Dui Deha Dhari
Anyonye Vilase Rasa Asvadane Kari'

"Radha Krsna são um só e o mesmo, mas Eles assumiram dois corpos. E assim, Eles desfrutam um do outro, saboreando as doçuras do amor."

Sei Dui Eka Ebe Caitanya Gosani
Rasa Asvadite Donhe Haila Eka Thani

"Agora, para desfrutar de Rasa, eles apareceram num só corpo como o Senhor Caitanya Mahaprabhu." (Cc Adi 4 - 56,57)


Sri Gauranga Hrdaya


anudghatya dvara-trayam uru ca bhitti-trayam aho
vilanghyoccaih kalingika-surabhi-madhye nipatitah
tanudyat-sankocat kamatha iva krsnoru-virahad
virajan gaurango hrdaya udayan mam madayati


"Como isto é maravilhoso ! Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu deixou Sua residência sem abrir três portas fortemente trancadas. Então Ele atravessou três grossas paredes, e mais tarde, devido a sentimentos de separação de Krsna, Ele caiu desmaiado no meio das vacas do distrito de Tailanga e retraiu Seus membros como uma tartaruga.

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, que apareceu desta forma, manifesta-se no meu coração (Hrdaya) e enlouquece-me."
(Gauranga Stava Kalpavrksa de Srila Raghunatha Dasa Goswami - Cc Antya 17 - 71,72)

“He Svarupa! Este Raghunatha permanecerá sob seus cuidados.” Com estas palavras doces vindo de Sua face sorridente, Srimam Mahaprabhu tornou Raghunatha dasa tão feliz que os pelos de seu corpo ficaram arrepiados e, num local solitário, Ele pessoalmente instruiu Raghunatha dasa sobre os aspectos confidenciais de Seu próprio amor. Possa este Mahaprabhu Sri Gauracandra estar sempre presente dentro do meu coração para sempre.

svarupa! mama hrd-vranam bata! viveda rupah katham
lilekha yad ayam patha tvam api tala-patre ‘ksaram

virajatu ciraya me hrdi sa gauracandrar prabhuh (2)

“He Svarupa! Como pôde Rupa ter compreendido Meu coração? Você também deveria ler este verso que ele escreveu numa folha de palmeira.” Desta forma, Mahaprabhu costumava algumas vezes exibir Seu grande prema e, outras vezes, Ele o mantinha velado. Possa este Mahaprabhu Sri Gauracandra estar sempre presente dentro do meu coração para sempre.

svarupa! parakiya-sat-pravara-vastu-nasecchatam

“He Svarupa! Há alguém presente aqui que deseja destruir o estágio devocional mais elevado e perfeito de parakiya-bhava. Você é capaz de reconhecê-lo?” Dessa forma bem humorada, Mahaprahbu na frente de todos indicou Sri Sanatana que ficou muito surpreso. Este primeiramente riu e depois abaixou sua face envergonhado. Possa este Mahaprabhu Sri Gauracandra estar sempre presente dentro do meu coração.

svarupa! harinama yaj jagad aghosayam tenna kim
na vacayitum apy athasakam imam sivanandajam
iti svapada-lehanaih sisum acikarat yah kavim
virajatyu ciraya me hrdi sa gauracandrah prabhuh (4)

“He Svarupa! Eu fiz todos os residentes deste mundo cantar harinama, mas qual minha realização se no final não posso fazer este jovem filho de Sivananda cantar harinama?” Ao dizer isto, Mahaprabhu fez com que a criança sugasse um de Seus dedos do pé e, desse modo, transformou-o no maior dos poetas. Possa este Mahaprabhu Sri Gauracandra estar sempre presente dentro do meu coração.

svarupa! rasa-ritir ambuja-drsam vraje bhanyatam
ghana-pranaya-manaja sruti-yugam mamotkanthate
rama yad iha manini tad api lokayeti bruvan
virajatu ciraya me hrdi sa gauracandrah prabhuh (5)

“He Svarupa! Descreva as características da rasa da afeição condensada que surge do mana das vraja-gopis de olhos de lótus. Meus ouvidos estão ansiosos por escutar isto. Veja! Porque Laksmidevi era incapaz de obter tal amor elevado, ela ficou indignada!” Desse modo, Mahaprabhu revelou Seus sentimentos mais internos a Svarupa Damodara Gosvami. Possa este Mahaprabhu Sri Gauracandra estar sempre presente dentro do meu coração

svarupa! rasa-mandiram bhavasi man-mudam aspadam
tvam atra purusottame vraja-bhuviva me vartase
iti sva-parirambhanaih pulakinam vyadhat tam ca yo
virajatyu ciraya me hrdi sa gauracandrah prabhuh (6)

“He Svarupa! Você é o mais querido por Mim, e você é um templo de rasa! Por estar residindo aqui, este Purusottama-ksetra aparece para Mim como Vrndavana.” Ao dizer isto, Mahaprabhu abraçou Svarupa Damodara ao redor do pescoço com muita afeição, fazendo com que os pêlos do corpo de Svarupa Damodara se arrepiassem devido ao êxtase. Possa este Mahaprabhu Sri Gauracandra estar sempre presente dentro do meu coração.

svarupa! kim apiksitam kva vibho! nisi svapnatah
prabho! kathaya kinnu tan-nava-yuva varambhodharah
vyadhat kim ayam iksyate kim u na hity agat tam dasam
virajatyu ciraya me hrdi sa gauracandrah prabhuh (7)

“He Svarupa! O que foi isto que Eu vi?”
“Prabhu,quando Você viu tal coisa?”
“Num sonho na noite passada.”
“Prabhu como se parecia?”
“Era um jovem cuja tez lembrava aquela de uma nuvem de monção recém formada.”
“O que Ele estava fazendo? É possível vê-lO agora?”
“Não, sou incapaz de vê-lO agora”. Ao dizer isto, Mahaprabhu ficava tomado pelo pesar e entrava num estado emocional sem precedentes. Possa este Mahaprabhu Sri Gauracandra estar sempre presente dentro do meu coração.

svarupa! mama netrayoh purata eva krsno hasann
apaiti na kara-graham vata! dadati ha! kim sakhe!
iti skhalati dhavati svasiti ghurnate yah sada
virajatyu ciraya me hrdi sa gauracandrah prabhuh (8)

“He Svarupa! Krsna permaneceu diante de Mim sorrindo, mas então Ele correu e não me deixou alcançá-lO. Ai de Mim, o que farei agora?” Ao dizer isto, Mahaprabhu repetidamente caía ao chão, corria para todos os lados, respirava rápido e algumas vezes rodopiava. Possa este Mahaprabhu Sri Gauracandra estar sempre presente dentro do meu coração.

svarupa-caritamrtam kila mahaprabhor astakam
rahasyatamam adbhutam pathati yah krti praty aham
svarupa parivaratam nayati tam saci-nandano
ghana-pranaya-madhurim sva-padayoh samasvadayan (9)

“Sri Saci-nandana Mahaprabhu fará com que aqueles que recitam este maravilhoso e confidencial Sriman Mahaprabhor-astaka, denominado Svarupa-Caritamrta, saboreiem a doçura de Seu prema intenso. Ele os aceitará como associados eternos de Svarupa Damodara.

Ofereço pranama a Sri Gaurahari, o filho de Saci (Saci-tanaya), cuja forma sublime é mais brilhante do que o ouro derretido e que estando imerso pelas emoções transcendentais (bhavas) de Srimati Radhika incessantemente exibe uma variedade de passatempos extáticos e que purifica os três mundos com uma partícula de Sua misericóridia.

Ofereço pranama a Sacinandana Sri Gaurahari, cuja voz sempre fica embargada quando Ele experimenta as ondas das transformações transcendentais (sattvica-bhavas) em Seu coração, e cujo brado ensurdecedor leva o terror aos ateístas opostos a bhakti. Sua misericórdia põe fim a todo medo da existência material.

Ofereço pranama a Saci-tanaya Sri Gaurahari que está vestido com uma roupa da cor do sol nascente, cujas bochechas adoráveis são extremamente encantadoras, de cujas unhas emana um brilho que derrota a glória da lua cheia e que experimenta uma bem-aventurança imensa por fazer kirtana de Seus próprios nomes e virtudes.
