⁠Gurudeva is like Brahma because he creates suddha-bhakti in the hearts of disciples.
⁠Gurudeva is like Visnu because he nourishes the hearts of disciples with suddha-bhakti.
⁠Gurudeva is like Siva/Mahesvara because he destroys the anarthas in the hearts of disciples.
⁠Mantra: Gurur Brahmā Gurur Viṣṇur Gurur devo Maheśvaraḥ Guruḥ sākṣāt paraṁ Brahma tasmai śrī gurave namaḥ
⁠Gurudeva is asraya-bhagavan and Krsna is visaya-bhagavan.

⁠Advaita Acarya and Nityananda Prabhu establish that Mahaprabhu is Svayam Bhagavan.
⁠Advaita Acarya brought Mahaprabhu into this world with His powerful, thunderous invocation. He is the combination of Maha-Visnu and Sadasiva, that is His potency.
⁠Lila of when Advaita Acarya went to Navadvipa Dhama and came across the sinful decline of the brahmana caste. Furious, He invokes the Lord powerfully with Tulasi and Ganga water.

⁠Detailed description of the birth of Kamalaksa (Advaita Acarya); Kubera and Nabha Devi are His parents.
