Intersting quote from the book Nityananda Gauraanga Naam

Nityananda ! Gauraanga ! Hare Krishna !

Very interesting quote I came across while reading the book Nityananda Gauraanga Naam which is as follows-

In the Amrita Pravaha Bhashya to the introduction of Chaitanya-Charitamrita (Cc) Adi-lila Chapter 8, Shrila Bhaktivinoda writes:

ihAte bujhite haibe ye, naamparAdhIra sAttvika vikArAdi kevala chalamAtra | yini akapaTe Chaitanya-nityAnandera naam laIyA Ananda prakAza karena, prabhudvaya tAGhAra hRdayake sAkSAt niraparAdha karena |

"We should factually understand that the ecsatic symptoms manifested by an offensive chanter of the Hare Krishna Mahamantra is simply a show or cheating. The Two Lords Nityananda and Gauranga make the heart of only that person pure and free of offenses who chant the Names of Nityananda and Gauranga and manifest great joy in doing it."

Sincerely,

Mihir.
