Re: Absorption in Gauranga Krishna Consciousness

Dear Vaisnavas,

      Nityananda! Gauranga! Hare Krishna! My pranams to both of you!

      Each of us take up the path of bhakti with our own unique problems. But as Srila Bhaktivinode Thakura says, Nityananda Gauranga are so merciful that they bring in love of Godhead and all spiritual qualifications in spite of all the impurities in the heart. And then in a very short time, the offenses and anarthas will flee! Hadai Nityananda Dasa prabhu, Swamiji and all the devotees chanting Nitai Gaura naam are all living examples of this.

      This is truly amazing to read and far more astonishing to experience it, but we can practically see that despite where we are, our chanting of Nityananda Gauranga never goes in vain. With every name the Lord steps in ever closer and closer toward us, sometimes revealing how close He is despite a million and one goof ups on our part.

      This mercy is totally off the scales and has broken all records as actually we are completely unfit to get such spiritual promotion in our fallen, fallen position. Will we ever get such a chance again? So there's no way any soul can afford to sleep through this very valuable time. We have to grab this opportunity, now!

       Other than Nityananda Gauranga, there is no way, no other way, by which one can progress in bhakti in spite of everything that can be there in the way.

Amazed by their causeless mercy,
Srinath
