Re: Question

dear bhaktatommy please accept my respects.

I love the story of Sri Nityananda Prabhu earring. I tried to find this in all the scriptures I have, but don't find it; can anyone verify it please.


below is from Sri Chaitanya Bhagavat mad 3  Nityananda wore a earring in his left ear


The Lord said to everyone, �Today I had a wonderful dream. I saw a beautiful chariot, with a flag on top, that came and stopped near my door. Within that chariot there was a remarkable personality. He carried a large pillar on His shoulder and appeared restless. He had a stick tucked into His clothes and carried a pitcher in His left hand. He dressed in blue garments with a blue cadara on his chest. A wonderful earring hung on His left ear. By His features, I assume He is none other than Haladhara Balarama.� He repeatedly asked, �Is this the house of Nimai Pandita?�
Lord Caitanya continued, �I have never seen such a noble and powerful personality. He was effulgent and dressed as an avadhuta, or mendicant. I was severely stunned by seeing Him. I asked Him, �Who are you?� He smilingly replied, �I am Your brother. We will meet and know each other tomorrow.� Hearing His words, My happiness increased. I consider Myself as similar to that personality.�
Speaking like this, Lord Caitanya fell into ecstatic trance and began to roar loudly in the mood of Haladhara Balarama. The Lord demanded, �Bring wine!� His loud voice almost shattered the ears of everyone present. Then Srivasa Pandita* said, �Please listen, O Gosai! The wine that you are asking for is right here in front of You. Only those You give it to can relish it.�
