August 18, 2023 7:12 PM

The merciful power of Gaura-Nitai. There is no difference between Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Krishna. Caitanya Mahaprabhu is our Adorable Deity in Kali-yuga. Without bhajana, everything is useless. Those who do not believe in the existence of Caitanya Mahaprabhu are demons. When we worship Gaurasundara, we automatically worship Radha and Krsna. Caitanya Mahaprabhu gives bhakti to everyone indiscriminately. The different types of worshippers. Chant the holy names, observing the ten nama-aparadhas...

About lobha-mayi-bhakti. Greed is the cause of greed. Greed depends on past life impressions. Prema-bhakti does not come from sukrti, it comes from the heart of a rasik-vaisnava due to the sincere greed of the sadhaka.
