Re: Paramatma and Lord"s Form and Pastimes in the heart

Nityananda Gauranga Hare Krishna!

Dear Guruji, bhakta Matus prabhu and devotees, please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Sri Sri Guru and Gauranga.

What a beautiful question bhakta Matus prabhu! I can answer this question only from my own limited understanding however it is saturated with unlimited nectar!

The Paramatma is the all-present expansion of Lord Nityananda, not only in the hearts of the living entities but standing in the center of every single atom. This all-penetrating personal presence of the Lord�s expansion makes every single particle of creation worthy of being the container of His personal presence. Although the Paramatma has many functions, in essence the Paramatma offers His very being as a divine pillow for the tender lotus feet of Lord Sri Gauranga Krishna similar as the breasts of the gopis are offered for the tender lotus feet of Lord Sri Krishna. With His unlimited compassionate nature all Lord Nityananda does is constantly welcoming the Supreme Lord Sri Gauranga Krishna to take seat in the heart of the living entities. The Paramatma is the guru within Who has only one aim: guiding the living entities to the lotus feet of Lord Sri Gauranga Krishna. Lord Nityananda draws Lord Gauranga to the heart of the living entities, and he draws the hearts of the living entities to Lord Gauranga. He is the matchmaker. Therefore He goes from door to door and begs people to chant the holy Name of Lord Gauranga. He knows that if the living entity responds, Lord Gauranga will respond. It happens through Lord Nityananda. He is the container; the holy ground on which it all happens. This is one of Lord Nityananda�s ways of eternally expanding the glories of the Lord. Therefore He has never mouths enough to fully glorify the Lord. Lord Gauranga Krishna�s glories are always ahead, always expanding.

Now when the match is made, when Lord Gauranga is descended in the heart of His pure devotee the Paramatma changes His function. He has no longer the need to function as the magnet between the Lord and the living entity because pure transcendental love is reestablished and is now the eternal pull between the two. But still Lord Nityananda facilitates the environment and contains the pure love between the Lord and His devotee. Now the Paramatma facilitates the paraphernalia for the Lord like the pillow for His tender feet. It�s even more beautiful: When Lord Gauranga Krishna comes, Lord Nityananda is there and the whole spiritual world comes; Navadvipa, Vrindavana, and every-thing and every-being within the holy Dhamas. How can we even understand this nectar? How can we even talk about these topics without falling unconscious? What happens with the light of a candle when the sun rises? What happens with the sunlight when a thousand suns rise? What happens when Lord Gauranga Krishna appears? When Lord Nityananda bows down for the Golden Lord of His heart and soul, all of His expansions bow down, and all of creation bows down. When that Lord Gauranga appears in the heart of His pure devotee the Paramatma falls down at His feet and direct service to His lotus feet has become His transformed function. Filled to the brim with love the devotee assists the Paramatma in His divine service to the lotus feet of Lord Gauranga Krishna tasting a drop of Lord Nityananda�s blessings of ever expanding bliss.

Oh bhakta Matus prabhu, what a nectar you have evoked with your divine question. Thank you so much!

Your servant,

Hadai Nityananda dasa

Nityananda Gauranga Hare Krishna!
