- Srila Rupa Gosvami fulfilled all the wishes of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
- Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu gave Haridasa the title of Nama Acharya.
- Shloka: harer nāma harer nāma harer nāmaiva kevalam (CC Adi 17.21).
- Without reading the granthas of Srila Raghunatha dasa Gosvami, it is impossible to understand the granthas of Srila Rupa Gosvami.
- The difference between Vaishnavas and brahmanas.
- The difference between raganugas and rupanugas.
