Gadadhara's pure ecstatic love in the mood of Rukmini-devi


Dear Swami Gaurangapada Maharaja,
Nityananda! Gauranga! Hare Krishna! Please accept my humble obeisances.

While reading the book Apasampradayas, Chapter Gauranga-nagaris, i found following statement regarding the mood of Shrila Gadadhara Pandita:

"Sri Gadadhara was so meek and submissive that the Lord sometimes remarked to His confidential associates, "Gadadhara is My consort in the spiritual world." Indeed, Gadadhara Prabhu's spiritual emotions for Lord Caitanya are described as suddha gadha bhava rukmini-devira ("pure, deep ecstatic love in the mood of Rukmini-devi") in Antya 7.144 of Sri Caitanya-caritamrta."

Could You please share Your realizations in regard to this subject matter?

Yours thankfully,
Matus
