Re: Regarding chanting of nitai-gaura


Nityananda! Gauranga! Hare Krishna!

     Please accept my humble obesiences
           
     All glories to sri guru and gauranga!!!
 
                                            In context of your question of accepting a spritual master or guru , one can remember Lord Krishna's advice to Uddhava.Lord Krishna stated that one who worships him directly is not his devotee , but , one who worships his devotee is actually his devotee.By accepting a spritual master and serving him without ulterior motives one can please the lord immensely. When the lord sees our endeavour to serve, he showers his mercy.Also, because of the guru's blessings and mercy ,our chanting goes from the offensive stage to the offense less stage and finally to the prema stage.
                                          Srila Prabhupada also wrote in his books that the more we become the servant of the servant the more Lord
Krishna's heart gets conquered.I would like to quote a verse from the Mukunda-Mala-Stotra :

                                         " O! ENEMY OF MADHU & KAITABHA, O!LORD OF THE UNIVERSE , THE PERFECTION OF MY LIFE ,THE MOST CHERISHED MERCY YOU COULD SHOW ME WOULD BE FOR YOU TO CONSIDER ME THE SERVANT OF THE SERVANT OF THE SERVANT OF THE SERVANT OF THE SERVANT OF THE SERVANT OF YOUR SERVANT" [Stotra 25].
                                       
          Radhe ! Radhe !
                               
               Your humble servant,
                              Nitai Charan
