* By hearing the glories of Guru and Vaisnavas, we are freed from Maya. * There are twenty types of alankaras (ornaments) described in the Ujjvala-nilamani, and all of them are to attract the mind of Krsna. * The further we advance in spiritual life, the more we can be absorbed in bhavas, but first, we must acquire basic knowledge. * Without knowledge, we can neither speak nor listen. * After sravana (listening), we must study. * The more we study and practice bhajana, by the mercy of Guru and Bhagavan, all knowledge will manifest in our hearts. * ⁠In Gaura-lila, Srila Haridasa Thakura is a manifestation of Brahma and Prahlada Maharaja together. * On the three ways of chanting the Holy Names. * Srila Haridasa Thakura established the glories of the Holy Names and received the title of Namacarya from his Guru. * On the three characteristics of bhakti described in the Srimad Bhagavatam. * There is a deep meaning behind the names/titles that a bona fide Guru gives to his disciple. * The Istadeva of Kali-yuga is Sacinandana Gaura Hari. We should worship Him through the mahamantra. * Without developing attachment and affection for Mahaprabhu, we will not attain Radha-Krsna’s prema. * It is important to learn about Gaura Sundara by reading the granthas. * To attain bhava-bhakti, we need two things: vaisnava-seva and nama-sankirtana. * By performing all service without duplicity, all tattva-siddhanta will manifest in our hearts.
