-Rupa Gosvami fulfilled the desires of Lord Caitanya
-What is the definition of rupanuga
-Desire a sprinkle of mercy & mood from Srila Rupa Gosvami & Rupa Manjari. Receive this and you will easily attain service to Srimati Radhika
-Very expert connoisseurs can relish rasa-madhurya, like Rupa & Sanatana
-Pastime of Srimati Radhika coming to make sweet rice for Rupa & Sanatana in order to listen to their hari-katha
-Lord Caitanya gave the treasures of his heart to Srila Rupa Gosvami. In the same way a bona fide Guru will manifest the jewels of his heart in the heart of his bona fide disciple
-Qualifications of a bona fide disciple
-Pastime of Lord Caitanya dancing in front of Lord Jagannatha, and reciting a verse by a mundane poet about love between an ordinary man and woman, despite Him typically only speaking pure hari-katha
-Hearing rasa-lila-katha can help conquer lust in the listener
-Give up mundane katha and always hear krsna-katha, vraja-katha
-You must receive mercy from the Lord in order to understand tattva-siddhanta
-You must also receive mercy from Guru and Vaisnavas
-The three ways Guru gives mercy
-Do bhajana & sadhana, collect sukriti and a sadhu will manifest before you
-You must have the eyes to properly see a sadhu, by collecting sukriti, otherwise you could dismiss him as a mad person
-Srimati Radhika’s parrot was Sukhadeva Gosvami. She would embrace and give kisses to him, and by this way he received Her amrita
-Rupa Gosvami stayed in Vrindavan,a and Lord Caitanya in Jagannatha Puri- but regardless, Lord Caitanya’s mercy was always with him
-The three Krsna’s: Vrindavana Krsna, Mathuradhisha Krsna, and Dvarakadhisha Krsna
-Lila of Rupa Gosvami writing about Srimati Radhika’s braid being like a black snake
-Jhulana-yatra is the best festival in Vraja
-Rupa Gosvami’s heart is very deep, like the Pacific ocean
-Without reading Bhakti-rasamrita-sindhu, Ujjvala-nilamani, you cannot enter into the ocean of divine love
-Ujjvala-nilamani is high level, but if you are qualified you should read it, and aim to progress your level
-By hearing a little high level katha, your greed will come to study sastra, thereby becoming qualified to progress
