Prema-vivarta, Day 4: Grantha-racanā — Jagadānanda the Rādhā-pada-dāsī, the Parrot’s Gaura-nāma, and Navadvīpa as Vṛndāvana • Why the Book Was Written: Opening chapter two (Grantha-racanā), Gurudeva reads how Jagadānanda Paṇḍita, “a paṇḍita in name only,” writes in tears whatever līlā of Mahāprabhu arises in his heart. To Svarūpa Dāmodara he says he writes only about the one he loves (pirīta), for no worldly purpose, and Svarūpa leaves him as bātula, mad (Prema-vivarta 2.1–10). • Not Satyabhāmā...

Prema-vivarta, Day 3: Ekātmā Means Śrī Caitanya — Brahma, Paramātmā and Rādhā-pada-dāsī • Ekātmā Is Not Nirvikāra Brahma: Continuing Prema-vivarta from Day 2, Gurudeva takes the word ekātmā in the maṅgalācaraṇa śloka. If one reads it as formless brahma from which Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa take form, that is not the verse’s intention; the two are one ātmā as Caitanya-prakāśa (Prema-vivarta 1.43–44). • Caitanya Never Brahma: Mahāprabhu is never nirvikāra brahma; He is viśuddha sākāra, full of ānanda-vikāra...

Prema-vivarta, Day 2: The Eternal Present, the Meaning of “Adhunā” and the Sweetness of Caitanya-murati • Viruddha-dharmāśraya: Continuing from Day 1, Gurudeva explains Rādhā as the shelter of contradictory qualities: Her prema has no room to grow yet keeps growing; She is guru of all yet considers Herself lowly; She is pure yet shows vakratā, as prema at its height moves crookedly like a snake (Prema-vivarta 1.24–25). • Nitya-vartamāna: In the cid-jagat there is no fault of time, no past or...
