In sadhu-sanga and nama-sankirtana, this is the method.” There is no difference between nama (name) and nami (the Lord). Caitanya Mahaprabhu is Nama and Nami, it is nama-vigraha-svarupa, to think that they are different is an offense. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu made a garland of nama-prema and put it on...

Krsna’s little friends fight, climb on His shoulders, etc. In Jaiva Dharma it is written that in Vrndavana there is no opulence, no guru-budhi. Example: Rati...
