Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s mood in Gambhira is the same as Viyogini-Radha, in Ratha Yatra His mood is like Samyogini-Radha.
Sudirgha-vipralambha-bhava: mood after long separation Srimati Radhika meets Sri Krishna in Kurukshetra.
Three types of meeting and separation: bhavi (future), bhavan (continuous present) and bhavia (past).
Prema-vaichittya: a kind of love that gopis feel when they meet Krishna and think that He is not there.
In the Ratha Yatra, Mahaprabhu thinks he is Radha and meets her beloved Krsna after a long separation (sudirgha-vipralamba).
Parakiya-bhava is not possible in the material world, but only in Goloka Vrndavana, in the heart of the vraja-gopis.
Even after the meeting, Radha’s heart is not jubilant; that happens only when She returns to Vrindavana.
Kurukshetra and Jagannatha Puri are part of Dvaraka Puri, that is, Krishna in the mood of opulence.
Everything depends on three things: desha (place), kala (time, circumstance) and patra (hero or heroine). -Krishna did not physically go from Kurukshetra to Vrndavana, but He told the gopis that He would go in the chariot of their minds.
Physically, Krishna returned from Kurukshetra to Dvaraka to fulfil His duties of killing demons.
God is one (Parama-tattva) and manifests in various forms with His inconceivable potency (acintya-shakti).
Svabhavik-acintya-shakti: This is the spontaneous unimaginable potency of Krishna.
Four forms arise from this potency: svarupa, bhava, jiva, and pradana (maya).
With His svarupa-shakti potency, He manifests His original form, Vrajendra-nandana Syamasundara.
Krishna is one, but He manifests in different incarnations, with different moods.
Sakhya, vatsalya and madhurya are the moods that manifest in Goloka Vrindavana.
Without following the rules (vaidhi-marga) it is not possible to enter into sweetness.
Srimati Radhika is testing Krsna to know whether Krsna will spontaneously go to Vrindavana. -Srimati Radhika is the one who brings Krsna from Dvaraka to Vrindavana with her love.
The difference between sadhaka and siddha form: sadhaka should follow rules and regulations, with mood of opulence, and siddha is spontaneous.
Spontaneous love exists only in Goloka Vrndavana, in the material world love always has a cause.
Sambhanda-atmika and kamatmika.
The book Prema Samputa explains what material love and transcendental love are.
The souls, the jivas, are ashraya-tattva (the shelter of love).
Divine love happens when ashraya and vishaya unite, that is, as a relationship between the jiva and Krishna, not between jiva and jiva.
Krishna is the enjoyer and the devotees are the enjoyed.
