Re: Srila Bhaktisiddhanta on the importance of chanting Gauraanga
"After getting the mercy of Lord Caitanya there will be anartha nivritti"
Srila Visvanatha Chakravarti Thakura explains that the stage of
anartha-nivrtti consists of elimimation of four kinds of anarthas:
(1) Duskrtottha
Anarthas coming from one's past sinful activities leading to envy & anger
even while performing devotional service.
(2) Sukrtottha
Anarthas coming from one's past pious activities leading to a craving in the
heart for temporary sensual pleasure even while performing devotional
service.
(3)Aparadhottha
Anarthas coming from our offenses (basically nama-aparadhas). Most strong
anartha.
(4) Bhaktyuttha
Anarthas coming from devotional service like desires for profit, adoration &
distinction.
Are there any other types of anarta-nivrti?
