After 3 months us blue lotuses were sorely missing each others association and so with great anticipation we all gathered at Gita Govinda’s place last Monday to discuss the transcendental message of the Teachings of Lord Caitanya.
“Caitanya” means the living force of immortality - impressive or what?!
To get into the right mood we sang the beautiful prayer “Sri Sri Gaura-Nityänander Daya” by Locana Dasa Thakur, which means The Mercy of Sri Gaura and Nityänanda. This beautiful prayer describes how Lord Caitanya and Lord Nityananda are the most merciful incarnations of Krishna because they are giving a process of self realization that is simply joyful! (Chanting and Dancing)
This is quite a lengthily book and while we all did not finish reading it, the bits that we did read increased our appreciation for Srila Prabhupada, the six goswamis and Gaura Nitai so much more. Srila Prabhupada’s sarcastic descriptions of the Mayavadi analogy of the water pot had us all laughing.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada’s transcendental books! We pray we may be able to dive deeper and deeper!
Your servants
Blue lotuses desiring the lotus feet of the Lord
