Re: Jumping from a cliff

Nityananda Gauranga Hare Krishna!

Dear Guruji, Bhakta Matus and devotees, please accept my humble obeisances.

I meant that Lord Nityananda is the container, the outside, and inside is Lord Gauranga. I forgot the comma but interesting enough in a sense Lord Gauranga is the inside and the outside since Lord Nityananda is the first expansion of Lord Gauranga Who is the Adi-purusha, the original Source of all sources.

Lord Nityananda and His expansions are the cause of all of creation; the spiritual and material manifestations. Lord Nityananda is �the container� of Lord Gauranga on so many levels of understanding. To mention a few: As Balarama He manifests Goloka Vrindavan and in Goloka Vrindavan plays the supreme exchanges of Radha and Krishna. When the Lord sits, it�s on Ananta Sesa. The umbrella over His head, the slippers He walks on etc. are all expansions of Lord Nityananda. When the Lord faints during His tumultuous kirtan in the house of Srivasa it are the strong arms of Lord Nityananda Who catches Him.

On another level it is only Lord Nityananda Who can behold Lord Gauranga. Being His first expansion and being identical to the Lord Himself Lord Nityananda is actually the only one Who can contain all of what Lord Gauranga is about, His bliss, His mood, His whole Being. Beholding all of Lord Gauranga Lord Nityananda is so fully intoxicated with Love and bliss that all He can do is serve the Lord. His whole Being is service to the Lord. All His expansions are engaged in service to the Lord.

The Lord�s container is totally made of service unto Him. All of creation is surrounding Him, serving Him, loving Him, giving Him everything there is to give. On the microcosmic level the Lord has entered every single atom so in this sense the atom itself is the container and nobody else than an expansion of Lord Nityananda. All that we can perceive are direct and indirect expansions of Lord Nityananda and therefore all we perceive is in service of the Lord. The whole of creation is dancing in service to the Lord. After being touched by the Lord it will take a tremendous effort to see differently and only a fool wants to brake lose of this wonderful creation in which everything is in service to Lord Gauranga Krishna.

The Lord has so much radiation that only the devotees are able to see through His light and see His form. The impersonalist is blinded because there are no cosmic sunglasses except devotional service to the personal Lord Gauranga Krishna. Again it is Lord Nityananda Who helps out. His garments are bluish and therefore His radiation is bluish which has the effect of millions of cooling moons. Although extremely bright, Lord Nityananda allows Himself to be seen through His radiation. When he allows you; within Himself, His supreme focus, is Lord Gauranga because that�s what is continuously on His mind. Coming in contact with Lord Nityananda naturally means serving Lord Gauranga because Lord Nityananda draws you in what He is all about: the constant servitor Lord at the feet of Lord Gauranga Krishna.

Actually Matus, these flows of realizations sometimes go so fast that it is hard to describe what is been seen and only a small part of the whole realization can be penned down. Sometimes I have even a hard time to pen down what I see being a little fearful that I sound like I am losing it all. When so called normal people would know what is going on in the mind of a devotee he or she can be easily described as �crazy�. Also while describing one aspect of a realization a million others are going through simultaneously. Or sometimes I sit down to pen something down and so much bliss surges through that it is just too much to even start describing. When a book rushes through in the time of a sentence what can we do?

By the way I have blamed Guruji for turning me into a madman. He of course in all His humbleness doesn�t take any credit and transfers everything higher up in the chain of the parampara. But still I blame Guruji because it is he who brought the rajamantras into my life. And there it all started: ecstasy after ecstasy from the very beginning.

I hope I clarified some of your question.

Your servant,

Hadai Nityananda dasa

Nityananda Gauranga Hare Krishna
