Tears in Navadvipa
Dear Devotees, Nityananda! Gauranga! Hare Krishna! Jaya Shri Guru Parampara! Pranams!
I have just returned from a five-day stay in Navadvipa Dhaama. While chanting and performing services, I noticed one special characteristic of Shri Navadvipa Mayapura Dhaama. The tears of affection towards the Lord and the Acharyas roll down effortlessly and suddenly in Navadvipa Dhaama while chanting or even while performing other services. In Navadvipa, one's heart and mind suddenly (dhaamera vichitra shakti hathaat taahaare…) becomes absorbed in Bhakti (devotion) without voluntary effort. In Navadvipa, one does not need to make a big endeavor to remember the Lord. It arises on it's own if the devotee is sincere (mantra chaitanya paaya, anaayaase tare). Navadvipa Dhaama can effortlessly raise us from the lowest material modes of nature to the pure remembrance of Lord Gaura Krishna with the least endeavor on our part. The only thing required is faith in the Navadvipa Dhaama Tattva and one will be able to experience the miraculous benefits of Navadvipa Dhaama. It is undoubtedly the most merciful place to visit in the whole of creation.
Daaso'smi, Swami Gaurangapada.
