9 March 2025 morning – The Meeting Place of Nimai and Nitai. Sri Navadvipa-dhama parikrama, day 1 (Hindi) | Navadvipa, India | Srila BV Vana Maharaja

00:00:00 — This place is called Uccha-udyana. In the beginning, Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu came here, and it is here that the first meeting of Nityananda Prabhu and Mahaprabhu took place. Nityananda Prabhu was singing kirtan and calling out: “Where is Krishna? Where is Kanaiya?” and thus came to Navadvipa

00:01:43 — Nityananda Prabhu thought: “If this is My Nimai Krishna, then He will surely recognize Me.” He came to the house of Nandana Acharya, and the associates were told: “There is such an astonishing sannyasi here”

00:03:30 — Vrindavan Das Thakur describes this in Chaitanya Bhagavatam: how Srivasa Pandit sings “Aham bhagyam.” The first verse describes beauty, the second describes His mercy and qualities. As Srivasa Pandit was singing, at that very moment Nityananda Prabhu and Mahaprabhu embraced each other—thus their first meeting took place

00:04:05 — Gaurasundara is Krishna, and Nityananda Prabhu is Baladeva Prabhu Himself. Just as Krishna and Balarama, Their meeting took place here. This place is also called Ishodyana

00:05:00 — Ishodyana means the garden of Srimati Radharani. One should come to this place and pray for the mercy of Nityananda Prabhu—by this, one realizes Nityananda-tattva. Then one receives the mercy of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Without Mahaprabhu’s mercy, it is impossible to receive the mercy of Guru—the two are interconnected

00:06:15 — This is the samadhi of Srila Vallabha Tirtha Gosvami Maharaj
