PART 1

PART 2

  • Suniyachi Sadhu-mukhe, a beautiful song by Narottama Dasa Thakura praising his master, Lokanatha Dasa Gosvami: prabhu lokanātha kabe saṅge lôiyā ĵā’be
    śrī rūpera pāda-padme more samarpibe, verse 4.
  • Narottama Dasa Thakura prays that his master will take him to the feet of Rupa Gosvami so that he may attain service at the lotus feet of Srimati Radhika.
  • When one accepts shelter at the lotus feet of the Guru, one must accept the punishments (discipline) that he imposes.
  • It is necessary to accept discipline because simply accepting the mantra given by the master is not enough for spiritual development.
  • Read the scriptures of Narottama Dasa Thakura.
  • The Guru leads the disciple by the hand, have guru-nistha!
  • Two focuses of worship: Gurudeva and RadhaKrsna.
  • The Guru is the one who helps the disciple cross the ocean of Maya.
  • The essence of all Harikathas is that we must have faith in the Guru.
  • In this Kisori Kunda, Lokanatha Dasa Gosvami met Thakuraji Radha Vinoda Lala.
  • Greed (lobha) must be present during the sadhana process because we practice sadhana to become gopis.
