About Granta Madhurya Kadambini by Srila Visvanatha Cakravarti Pada.
About vaidhi-bhakti and raganuga-bhakti.
About different vaidhi-bhakti: serving in a mood of opulence; serve for fear of going to hell.
Raganuga-bhakti: lobha-mayi-bhakti, bhakti enriched by the pure yearning to attain transcendental service to Sri Sri Radha Krsna.
About suddha-bhakti and how in Kali-yuga only Caitanya Mahaprabhu can give us suddha-prema, vraja-prema.
Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the embodiment of munificence and magnanimity.
He who can do the best service is he who knows the heart of his Istadeva. Rupa Gosvami knew the heart of Caitanya Mahaprabhu, and Radharani knows the heart of Krsna.
We should read many Grantas and study hard to obtain suddha-bhakti.
