Who is Really A Devotee of Lord Caitanya & Real Path To Becoming One

RI CHAITANYA GIVES THE NECTAR OF PURE LOVE: "Whether seen, touched, glorified, remembered, bowed down to from afar, or worshiped, Sri Chaitanya gives the nectar of pure love of Krsna to His devotees. Let me glorify Sri Chaitanya, the merciful Supreme Personality of Godhead. The Nectar Moon of Sri Chaitanya) vs 4 & 5 by Srila Prabodhananda Sarasvati]

Comment by Gaurahari Das: Some important key words in this verse shine brightly. Sri Caitanya gives the nectar of love of Krishna to his devotees. So practically one can examine ones own heart when one remembers lord Chaitanya does pure love of Krishna awaken? I've heard many say that they love Krishna but genuine transcendental love of Krishna produces symptoms of ecstasy and bodily transformation and at this time maybe one out many thousands of Vaishnavas experiences such intense uncommon transcendental transformations of ecstasy. If such loves symptoms has not yet arisen then one is not yet a  real devotee of Lord Caitanya on the transcendental suddha bhakti stage of realization.  If one has a genuine transcendental relationship with Lord Caitanya then even five hundred years into the future a real devotee who remembers Lord Caitanya is sometimes flooded with transcendental  tears of union or separation moods from his beloved Lord and other tasty bodily transformations. 

 So what is the solution if pure transcendental love of Krishna does not ever arise when Lord Caitanya is remembered?  

One of the bhāgavatas is the great scripture Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and the other is the pure devotee absorbed in the mellows of loving devotion.— Through the actions of these two bhāgavatas the Lord instills the mellows of transcendental loving service into the heart of a living being, and thus the Lord, in the heart of His devotee, comes under the control of the devotee’s love. CC 1.99-100 

Then one needs the help of the two bhagavatas the book and the devotee bhagavata in whom love of Krishna has arisen to help remove the obstructions so that love of Godhead will appear in ones heart. This article is for those who in error are thinking that they actually don’t need a living devotionally God realized guide to understand Srila Prabhupada Books to get the scoop or the real truth of the matter. This truth is that Srila Prabhupada, who is non different from the  directly stated conclusions in his books, wants that one meets both bhagavatas, the book and the living realized soul so that his disciples can quickly have their dormant devotion to Krishna is awakened. Then by following the real formula stated in the above verse , for the neophytes, they will gradually begin to understand Srimad Bhagavatam, the Holy Name, Caitanya Caritamrita clearly through the medium of ever increasing transcendental, intoxicating, ecstatic, rapturous relish!  

At the risk of being repetitive one can refer to the following article that I just finished writing at this link to get more details on how to become a devotee of Lord Caitanya on the ecstatic devotional platform.  https://www.facebook.com/notes/gaurahari-das/who-needs-to-hear-srimad-bhagavatam-from-a-living-self-realized-soul/10155418638262346/

Why Current Vaishnava Societies are Failing to Achieve Prema Bhakti in this Life? Part One

C Ādi 1.98 — But these two brothers [Lord Caitanya and Lord Nityānanda] dissipate the darkness of the inner core of the heart, and thus They help one meet the two kinds of bhāgavatas [persons or things in relationship with the Personality of Godhead]. CC Ādi 1.99 — One of the bhāgavatas is the great scripture Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and the other is the pure devotee absorbed in the mellows of loving devotion. CC Ādi 1.100 — Through the actions of these two bhāgavatas the Lord instills the mellows of transcendental loving service into the heart of a living being, and thus the Lord, in the heart of His devotee, comes under the control of the devotee’s love. 

Purport by Gaurahari Das: First off we are very lucky to have Srila Prabhupada's books. They are one important half of the equation to solve the problem of achieving the platform of pure devotional service in this very lifetime as the above verses clearly point out. Yet the direction of these verses are not clearly understood or taught by the modern day leaders to their Vaishnava followers. Srila Prabhupada’s books are so empowered with true knowledge and devotional potency that they can awaken pure devotional love of God in those who cherish and understand them. Yet why don't we see more Prema Bhaktas and instead Vaishnavas who are still after many years of faith in Vaishnavism, still wholly and solely devoted to Varnashram Dharma  or the very basic yet still external or material platform of Vaishnavism? 

If one really understood the essence of the teachings inside Srila Prabhupada’s books, like in the above verses in Caitanya Caritamrita, one would understand the complete formula for achieving Prema Bhakti or love of God quickly in this very life, and act according to those verses.  Due to complete understanding of them, they would seek out the genuine ecstatic association of devotees that Lord Caitanya is sending us, but because the Leaders are not yet examples of experiencing the mellows of pure devotion, they cannot direct their followers to where they can achieve real deliverance from the cycle of birth and death in this very lifetime. 

At the present moment, because of lack of true understanding, the Vaishnava leaders and their followers do not clearly understand the meaning of Guru Tattava which is the very foundation and door to achieving the blissful ecstatic platform of devotional service.  The clearest explanation of where the real path of how the mellows of pure devotion are awakened in the heart is in the first chapter of Caitanya Caritamrita called “ The Spiritual Masters” ; yet because no one is hearing properly from a devotee Bhagavata who conforms to the conclusive statements of the above quoted verses, who is steeped in the mellows of devotion, one cannot act accordingly and complete the formula, quickly achieving the platform of awakening of pure devotion. Therefore it is rare that anyone yet is achieving a genuine transcendental relationship with Krishna through the spontaneous  awakening  of love of God.   

Lord Caitanya once met a illiterate Brahman who was just looking at the picture of Krishna in Bhagavad Gita and crying in ecstatic love. He said to him”   Because of your ecstatic devotion whatever you say about the Gita, constitutes the real purport and undertanding of the Gita.” Caitanya Caritamrita   The sum and substance or purport of these verses for those who are looking for a bonafide Guru to guide them either formally or informally, will find the real deal in a devotee of Krishna who chants the Holy Name and Fame of Gaura/Krishna with great devotional ecstatic intimacy.  Because they worship the Lord and bonafide Vaishnavas with spontaneously awakening of ecstatic love, the real confidential purports are revealed to them automatically. The devotional potency naturally purifies the material dust from their hearts and this also naturally exposes the real confidential meaning of Srimad Bhagavatam and all of the revealed scriptures. Lord Caitanya met a illiterate brahmin who was just looking at the picture of Krishna in Bhagavad Gita and crying in ecstatic love. He said to him”   Because of your ecstatic devotion whatever you say about the Gita, constitutes the real purport and undertanding of the Gita.”   

As long as the Vaishnava’s continue to act in contradiction to the direction of the book Bhagavata’s real explanation of of Guru Tattva by accepting as their saviors or Spiritual Masters  those who have not genuinely realized Krishna, modern day Vaishnavas will fail to achieve the platform of deep ecstatic intimate love of Krishna, no matter how sincerely they are following those leaders who also do not yet understand the above verses; therefore they cannot direct their followers in the right way to quickly achieve the desired result of rapid awakening of pure Love of Krishna.

Revival of Free Premabhakti Distribution is Now!!!

The heart is like a mirror but it’s covered up with so much layers of dirt, thick like the Himalayan mountain; huge amount of dirt is there accumulated from many, many lakhs of lives. How it will be cleansed up? Any material scientist can cleanse it? They don’t know how to clean. They may clean the intestines, but they cannot cleanse the heart from this material contamination accumulated there from time immemorial. The process is, you engage yourself in hari-sankirtan, chanting ‘Hare Krishna’ then your heart becomes cleansed of all contaminations there, all layers of dirt are finished.” Sri Srimad Gour Govinda Swami Maharja, 

Purport by Srila Gaurahari Das: CC Ādi 8.16 — If one is infested with the ten offenses in the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra, despite his endeavor to chant the holy name for many births, he will not get the love of Godhead that is the ultimate goal of this chanting. The above statement of  Sri Srimad Gour Govinda Swami Maharja, is certainly true yet is the external or surface meaning. One who just follows this instruction, without deeper understanding, it will take one many lifetimes, due to ones offenses, to get the desired result of Krishna prema as almost all vaishnava gurus conclude. Practically we see that from the followers of Srila Bhaktisidanta, and Srila Prabhupada hardly more than one person can we say may have attained this rare gift of Premabhakti. Therefore, inorder to speed up the process of attaining the valuable jewel of Premabhakti in this lifetime one must undertand a great secret…  In the following verse the great secret is revealed and our explanation here unlocks this mysterious confidential truth for all who listen attentively. 

CC Ādi 8.21 — Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, as the Supreme Personality of Godhead Himself, is fully independent.

Therefore, although it is the most confidentially stored benediction, He can distribute love of Godhead to anyone and everyone without consideration. When Lord Caitanya appeared in this world with his confidential associates 500 years ago he freely distributed devotion to Krishna or prema bhakti so that engaging in hearing and chanting the Holy Name would cause ecstatic devotional love for Krishna to arise in ones heart. He then disappeared from our external vision and continued the distribution of his confidential treasure of Love of God through empowered Spiritual Masters like Srinivasa, Narotama and Syamananda. Then quickly the great jewel of love of God wained  in its distribution due to lack of personal associates being sent to continue the distribution of premabhakti. To begin this Bhakti movement of free distribution of prema or ecstatic devotion, which makes worshiping Krishna name every transcendentally sweet, he empowers his devotees.  They relish premabhakti themselves and due to this, are naturally empowered to distribute it to others who believe in their preaching and ecstatic mode of worship. So by good fortune this free distribution of devotion to Krishna is going on at the time of this writing here in our humble sanga. The first fruits of this unprecedented revival of premabhakti worship of Krishna can be practically seen in our witnesses who have recieved this wonderful mercy flowing through our grace place. Proof is in the pudding and people can say they don’t believe it because no one else is able to distribute this outstanding mercy but the proof his here in the witnesses personal testimonies of their experiences of following this path taught here.

No Pure Ecstatic Love, No Suddha Bhakti Spiritual Master, No Deliverance

CC Ādi 1.99 — One of the bhāgavatas is the great scripture Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and the other is the pure devotee absorbed in the mellows of loving devotion.CC Ādi 1.100 — Through the actions of these two bhāgavatas the Lord instills the mellows of transcendental loving service into the heart of a living being, and thus the Lord, in the heart of His devotee, comes under the control of the devotee

Srila Gaurahari Das: Most vaishnavas are still just worshiping Srila Prabhupada in name only. They don't act or is their understanding conformed to teachings of the verses of his Books. Therefore they must hear the book from a living devotee who worships the Lord in ecstatic loving ecstasy or in other words through the medium of loving devotion. This kind of rare worship reveals the right understanding of the book bhagavata and such a spiritual master by their mercy reveal that as it is understanding to their disciples and helps them find their way back home to godhead. " To those who worship me with Loving ecstacy I give them the understanding how to come back home to Me. BG 10.10 This is the essence of guru tatva the truth about Guru and how to recognize the qualities of a bonafide spiritual master. Then it is a no brainier that those who are premabhaktas are the real spiritual masters of this world. They have the following qualities.

 CC Madhya 23.41 — “ ‘When a person is actually advanced and takes pleasure in chanting the holy name of the Lord, who is very dear to him, he is agitated and loudly chants the holy name. He also laughs, cries, becomes agitated and chants just like a madman, not caring for outsiders.’ 

 This is the real suddha bhakti Spiritual Master who has all these same qualities of engagement in ecstatic loving service of the Supreme Lord  listed in all these verses therefore they are the real knowers of what is actually in the book bhagavata. This is the reason one needs such a perfectly self realized living devotee Bhagavata to teach other sincere persons interested in deliverance from maya what is inside the book bhagavata. Only they know as their hearts are purified by ecstatic loving worship of  Radha & Krishna. It is an illusion to worship a Guru who is not egaged in the rarely seen  ecstatic loving service of Krishna as they naturally don't have the right understanding to deliver themselves or their disciples. The ecstatic loving service of Krisha is more than just being a brahman or engagment in reglative devotional service. Therefore 

CC Antya 3.26 says, “ ‘A person may be born in a brahmana family and have all twelve brahminical qualities, but if in spite of being qualified he is not devoted to the lotus feet of Lord Krsna, who has a navel shaped like a lotus, he is not as good as a candala who has dedicated his mind, words, activities, wealth and life to the service of the Lord. Simply to take birth in a brahmana family or to have brahminical qualities is not sufficient. One must become a pure devotee of the Lord. If a sva-paca or candala is a devotee, he delivers not only himself but his whole family, whereas a brahmana who is not a devotee but simply has brahminical qualifications cannot even purify himself, what to speak of his family.’
