- Caitanya Mahaprabhu meets with Rupa Gosvami in Prayaga, and gives various institutions to instruct us all.
- Mahaprabhu invested all His potency (sakti) in the heart of Rupa Gosvami.
- Everyone who completely surrenders to Guru and Krsna receives complete mercy. We learn subjects according to our spiritual maturity.
- Mahaprabhu said that bhakti-rasa is a very confidential matter.
- When bhakti is mature and fully manifested, it is called prema.
- The process of bhakti begins with saranagati, surrender. And, suddha-bhakti is only understood with complete surrender.
- Sraddha means faith, faith in the instructions of the Guru and the sastras: cittete kariya aikya (Sri Guru Carana Padma), unwavering faith (atyantiki-sraddha).
- You lived countless lives in animal bodies, now you are in a human body, this is a great good fortune for those people who are practising spiritual life.
- Distinction between different types of people, according to their activities.
- It is very rare to find people who practise service to the Lord, and it is even more rare to find those who want to be Krsna-bhakta and Radha-dasya.
- Suddha-bhakti only manifests in the hearts of those who attain sadhu-sanga and listen to harikatha, carefully studying and following the four principles.
- Sloka: brahmāṇḍa bhramite kona bhāgyavān jīva (Caitanya Caritamrta: Madhya-lila 19.151).
- And, there are still those jivas that cannot even assume any type of body, these are circulating through the air. There are millions and millions of jivas in a drop of blood. They have life but they don’t have a body. You are very fortunate as you have sadhu-sanga. This is your last life, this is very important!
- If you don’t practise sadhana, you will go back to the cycle of birth and death.
- Don’t miss this opportunity!
- It can only really serve Guru, Krsna and Radha, that person who knows their heart.
