20230502 || Lord Caitanya’s Daily Routine of Seeing Jagannātha Behind Garuḍa Column || Dallas, US

A live recording (May 2, 2023, Dallas) of His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami Maharaj presenting and commenting on a compilation from Sri Krishna Chaitanya (Caitanya-charitamrita, Antya-lila, ch.14). Speakers read and explicate texts describing Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s intense feelings of separation from Krishna — equating his mood with Radharani’s anguish, recounting his dreams of Krishna’s Rasa-lila, and noting his daily practice of viewing Lord Jagannath from behind the Garuda column (said to have melted the stone from his ecstatic intensity). The talk also discusses the provenance of the notes (Swarup Damodar and Raghunath Das Goswamis) and warns against unauthorized worship practices that misinterpret Caitanya’s pastimes.

The following is a Sri Krishna Chaitanya book compilation given by His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami Maharaj on May 2, 2023 in Dallas, Texas.
Usharam Om Tatsat Today we are continuing with the compilation of the Sri Krishna Caitanya book. Today's chapter is entitled Lord Caitanya's Daily Routine of Seeing Jagannath from behind the Garuda column under the section Lord R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu's Feelings of separation from Ka r Caitanya Caitamita Antialila chapter 14, text 1 I shall now describe a very small portion of the activities performed by Sri Caitanya Mahprabhu with his mind, intelligence and body when he was bewildered by strong feelings of separation from Krishna. So Krishna Kabir Swami is going to embark on some of these pastimes of Lord Caitanya when he was feeling great separation of Krishna. We know that Lord Chaitanya was told by Rukmini that Krishna didn't know everything that.
Rukmini Arada Guru Sadheva Krishna didn't.
Know that Rukmini and Radha knew something that Krishna didn't know about.
So Krishna asked, what was that?
So Krishna asked, what was that?
How much do devotees love you?
And she said, how much do devotees love you?
In what way he loves us and.
In what way we love you?
I know.
I know. Radharati knows. You don't know. So then he said he would come as his devotee.
So this part is the Astra is a little shout and the shoes sort of straight all Radharani.
So this part he's putting his shoes in the feet, so to speak. So to speak, he's putting his shoes in the part of Radharani. So Lord Jim Sridharani was feeling great separation of Krishna. So Lord Chaitanya was experiencing, feeling that Antialila chapter 14, text 4.
Jaya Sharu, Srivashadi Prabhu, Bhaktavan, Shakti, Devokuri, Janu, Chittalu.
Varna.
All glories to Swarup Dhammadar and all glories and all the other devotees headed by Shivas Thakur. Please give me the strength to describe the character of of Shichetanya Mahaprabhu. So Krishna's Kaviraj is begging for blessings. So this is an important aspect of writing Vaiav literature.
You need to get the lessons Guru and Ranga.
You need to get the blessings from Guru and Goranga.
From the sadhus.
From the sadhus and the devotees of the Lord.
Sh.
Catanachaytamita Anjalila Chapter 14 Text 5.
Guru Kripa Bradit Mahav Mahavid.
R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu's emotion of transcendental madness in separation from Ka is very deep and mysterious. Even though one is very advanced and.
Learned, he cannot understand it's a seer.
This highest ecstasy of loving Ka not.
Possible for people to understand is not.
Possible for people to understand. They need special mercy to understand this. Chapter 14 Text 6 How can one describe unfathomable subject matters? It is possible only if R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu gives him the capability.
So Gujarat has explained.
So Krishna Das Kaviraj is explaining his situation. It is difficult for even people to understand Lord Chaitanya's pastimes what to speak of explaining it. So he is requesting the mercy of R. Caitanya Mahprabhu Only by his benediction it will be possible Shri Caitanya charitamrita until chapter 14 text 7 Swarab Damodar Goswami and Raghunath Das Goswami recorded all these transcendental activities of R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu in their purport Vaishla Prabhupada. R. Caitanya Mahprabhu's transcendental feelings of separation from Ka and his consequent madness are not at all understandable by a person on the material platform. Nonetheless, a so called party of devotees named Nadia Nagari has sprung up and introduced the worship of Vishnu Priya. This certainly indicates their ignorance and concerning certainly indicates their ignorance concerning R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu's pastimes. In the opinion of Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur, such worship is a product of the imagination. Many other methods of worshipping Caitanya Mahaprabhu have also been introduced, but they have all been rejected by stalwart devotees like Bhakti Vinod Thakur. The groups practicing such unauthorized worship have been listed by Srila Bhakti Vikur, Aula Baula Karta Baja Neda Dara Vesha, Sani, Sahajiya Sakibeki, Smarta Jata Goshani, Athiwadi Chudadi Gauranga Nagari Saurabh Damara Goswami and Raghunath Das Goswami witnessed Caitanya Mahaprabhu's activities firsthand and recorded them in two notebooks. Therefore, without reference to those notebooks one cannot understand the activities of Sh. Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Anyone inventing some new method for worshiping R. Caitanya Mahprabhu is certainly unable to understand the Lord's pastimes for he is bereft of the real process of approaching the Lord. So Swaruk Damara and Raghunathas Goswam had kept notebooks had kept notebooks of the.
Transcendental pastimes.
On the transcendental pastimes of Lord Chaitanya. So Krishnas took reference from these notebooks and wrote down the essence of Caitanya. So like this he is following the guru parampara system. Chapter 14 text 8 Haribo in those days Saurabh Damadar and Raghunath Das Goswami lived with R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu whereas all other commentators lived far away from him. Purport by Srila Prabhupada Besides Swarup Damada and Raghunath Das Goswami, there were many others who also recorded R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu's activities. Rla Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur the believes that the people of the world would benefit greatly if such notes were available. It is a most unfortunate situation for human society that none of these notebooks is still existent. My attempt in compiling the Sri Krishna.
Chaitanya book the blessings of previous Acharyas.
With the blessings of previous Acharyas truths.
And works Malayana to get all the.
Notebooks and books and combine them. But the notebooks of Saurabh Dhamidar and Raghunath Das Goswami are not available. We got notebooks from and others but these two books are not available. But the essence is given in the Chaitanya Charitamrita so we have that. Chapter 14 text 9 these two great personalities Saurupdhamadar and Raghunath Das Goswami recorded the activities of R. Caitanya Mahprabhu moment by moment. They describe these activities briefly as well as elaborately in their notebooks. For future reference, we should remember that Swarup Damra Goswami recorded the pastimes briefly, whereas Raghunathas Goswami recorded them elaborately. These two great personalities simply recorded the facts. They did not create any descriptive literary embellishments.
So Ravana of all Gita Srila Prabhupada.
Was asked to recommend Bhagavad Gita. But although there may be 400 or so Bhagavad Gitas in the English language for but he could not recommend any. Some were better than others but all.
Had some personal.
Commentary but all had some personal commentary which was different from what Krishna was explaining. So Srila Prabhupada wrote Bhagavad Gita as it is and gave the instruction of Ka without his personal commentary. Chapter 14, text 10 Swaruk Dharmadhar wrote short notes whereas Raghunath Das Goswami wrote elaborate descriptions. I shall now describe R. Caitanya Mahprghu's activities more elaborately as if fluffing out compressed cotton. Purport by Rla Prabhupada Panjitika means further explanations of a subject. Writing such explanations is likened to the process of fluffing out cotton.
Cotton mattresses are sometimes.
In India it is quite common that cotton mattresses they become flat. So periodically there are these peoples who would fluff up the cotton mattresses they have a tool which looks like a string instrument and they take the cotton and bring bing and put air in it.
So like that by comparing this Panjitika.
So they are comparing this Panjitika to fluff like fluffing the cotton so we can try to get more nectar out of it. Caitanya charitamrita antialila chapter 14, text 11.
Premodha.
Please hear faithfully this description of Caitanya Mahprabhu's ecstatic emotions Thus you will come to know of his ecstatic love and ultimately you will achieve love of.
Godhead So here's Ashtan Allah Caitanra.
So.
Hearing these pastimes of Lord Caitanya allow.
You to officiate the ecstasies he went.
Through will allow you to appreciate the ecstasies he went through absolutely will achieve love for Ka and ultimately you will achieve love of Kaariva Haribo God Anjalila chapter 14 text 12 when R. Caitanya Mahprabhu felt separation from Krishna his condition exactly corresponded to that of the Gopis in Vrindavan after Krishna's departure for Mathura. So when Krishna and Balaram were taken away by Akrura to Mathura and all.
These lost all their composure, lost their.
Shyness the Gopis lost all their composure, lost their shyness shyness and then tried to stop Krishna's chariot and they tried to stop Krishna's chariot they were feeling so much separation. So Lord Chaitanya his separation was like that of the Gopis when Krishna was leaving to Mathura. Caitanya Charita meet Antialila chapter 1413 the Lamentation of Shrimati Radharani when Urava visited Vrindavan gradually became a feature of Rtanya Mahprabhu's transcendental madness.
Lord Chaitanya he was experiencing Radharani's self.
Ration Lord Caitanya he was experiencing Radharani's separation. There are three things that Lord Chaitanya came down for. His external reason was establishing the Sankirtan movement and his internal confidential reason was to experience the love that his devotees felt for Krishna. But there is one super secret reason.
Why Radharani she felt more happiness than.
Krishna why Radharani she felt more happiness.
Than Krishna her ecstasy are more profound.
Than Krishna her ecstasy was more profound than Krishna's. So R. Caitanya Mahprabhu was relishing that extreme ecstasy. Shri Caitanya charitamrita Anchal Leela chapter 14 text 14.
Krishna Birohini Shri Radha Bhavey Bibha Vida Brahu Shudharam Tahathi Krishna Shambhoga Kankha Vrittir Abha Sratikara Bhave Prabhu Shadow Bhiman Shai Bhavna.
Caitanya Mahprabhu's emotions exactly corresponded to those of Shrimati Radharani when she met Udava. The Lord always conceived of Himself in her position and sometimes thought that he.
Was Shrimati Radharani herself. Purport by Srila Prabhupada Rla Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur explains that the purport of the word Abhiman or self conception is that Sri Chaitanya Mahprabhu thought himself to be in the position of Shrimati Radharani and was always ready to render Ka service in that way. Although Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is Ka himself, he assumed the complexion and emotions of Shrimaki Radharani and remained in that status. He never assumed the complexion or status of Lord Krishna. Of course Ka wanted to experience the role of Shrimati Radharani that is the.
Original cause of his assuming the body.
Of Sh Caitanya Mahatrabhu. Therefore, pure Vaishnavas never disturb R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu's conception of being Rmati Ravharani. Unfortunately, at the present time a group of so called devotees maintain that R. Caitanya Mahapuru is the enjoyer and that they are enjoyers as well. They have actually deviated from devotional service to the Lord. R. Cathayanaya Mahprabhu manifested himself to show that cultivation of love for Ka and separation is the easiest way of success for all living entities. Despite this fact, there are some theosophists who declare that because Sric Caitanya Mahaprabhu is the supreme personality of Godhead, such cultivation is easy for him but difficult for the living entities, and that one can therefore approach Ka in any way he likes. To nullify this idea, R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu demonstrated practically how one can achieve love of Ka by adopting Rmati Radharani's mood in separation from Ka.
Anunava Vander Vrindavan sent by Krishna When.
Urabha went to Vrindavan sent by Krishna, she was talking to a bumblebee.
She said the loli is a legendary bumble.
She said the bumblebee. She thought that bumblebee was a messenger.
From Krishna on this side.
So in this way the messenger Urava, the messenger of Krishna, he was overwhelmed.
He said, I'm feeling these holographs. And right now he got.
He prayed that if he could become a grass in Vrindavan, he'd get the lotus feet of the Gopis stepping on him. Such is the state of transcendental madness. Why is it difficult to understand? When one is highly elevated in love of Ka, he becomes transcendentally mad and talks like a madman. It is said that Rabharani was experiencing Mahabhava.
Pure devotees ever have this realization and.
That only pure devotees ever have that realization.
He had that realization.
Matavendrapuri he had that realization.
He had that realization.
Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu he had that realization.
So this continental alignment in the Southridge Sanga.
So this feeling of transcendental madness and separation of Ka is part of the Mahabhav Chaitanya Chaitamilila Chapter 14 Text.
16.
Dibbun madhe shamga O tahar prokar bhed Oj stai bha prokoroni.
Translation to.
The verse when the ecstatic emotion of enchantment gradually progresses, it becomes similar to bewilderment. Then one reaches the stage of astonishment. Vaishitri which awakens transcendental madness Ut Gurna and Chitra Jalpa are two among the many divisions of transcendental madness. Purport Vaishla Prabhupada this is a quotation from the Gujara milamani spai bhava prakarana174.
I would like to obtain Krishna Prema.
Devotees would like to obtain Ka Prema. What.
Prabhak the highest levels of Krishna Prema.
But here La Chaitanya was experiencing the highest levels of ka Prema which is which are described in the Ujjala Nilamaniya.
Charitamrita chapter 14 text 17 Sri Radharna Drishtantu Akodin Shayan Krishna Rasha Nila Kore Dekhina Shabbom.
One day while he was resting R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu dreamed he saw Ka performing his Rasa dance of that Lord Krishna Lord Chaitanya. He was always thinking about Lord Kajat.
Unusual of the dreaming Akrisha.
So it was not unusual that he was dreaming of Krishna Krishna Krishna performing his ras lila.
Dance.
14 text 18 Ritaikani Mahaprabhu saw Lord Ka standing with his beautiful body curved in three places, holding his flute to his lips, wearing yellow garments and garlands of forest flowers. He was enchanting even to be Cupid. So Lord Chaitani Mahaprabhu was seeing Krishna as Radharani was seeing him.
He was completely enchanted, completely enamored and started all of Krishna.
So he was completely enchanted, completely enamored in ecstatic love of Ka. Chapter 14 Text 19 the Gopis were dancing in a circle and in the middle of that circle Krishna the son of Maharajananda danced with Radharani chichetanakcharitamita Anthyalila. Chapter 14 Text 20.
Brindamune Krishna Panu Egan Koila.
Seeing this Ritaikanya Mahaprabhu was overwhelmed with the transcendental mellow of the Rasa dance. And he thought now I am with Krishna in Vrindavan.
Lord Chaitanya Mahbhu altariness and started feeling.
So Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu was having this ecstatic feeling.
It's showing how the gurus they got real and then they were Krishna.
So he is showing how the devotees can be connected to Krishna through this VIPRA number separation. This separation. Chapter 14 Text 21.
Jagrut Avusthai Bacho Dashay Prabhu Krishna Bichi Tedukhu.
When Govinda saw that the Lord had not yet risen, he awakened him, understanding that he had only been dreaming. The Lord was somewhat unhappy.
Thought Krishna.
Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu actually thought that he was with Krishna.
Then Govinda woke him up.
He realized that it was only a.
Dream.
So he is feeling unhappy. Chapter 14 text 22 Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu performed his customary daily duties and at the usual time he went to see Lord Jagannath in the temple. Chapter 14 Verse 23.
Guru Thambaite Prabhu Jawannath Darshan Jabot Kalu Darshan.
As he viewed Lord Jagannath from behind the Garuda column. Hundreds and thousands of people in front of him were seeing the deity. So Lord Chaitanya he would customarily take the position by Guru and end of this day. And till this day there are the fingerprints of Lord Chaitanya in the Garuda column. His ecstasy was so intense that he actually melted the stone. Thus ends the chapter entitled Lord Chaitanya's daily routine of seeing Jagannath from behind the Guru column under the section Loy Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's feelings of separation from Krishna.
Lord Chaitanya had his daily routine.
So Lord Chaitanya had his daily routine that he performed. That he performed.
Almost mechanically.
Almost mechanically.
Everything.
It was really great.
And that in between he was feeling great separation from Lord Krishna. Thank you very much. 1008.
Or love. Hallelujah. I like to have sincere love for Krishna.
So how many of you would like to have ecstasy of love of Ka.
Lor?
So Lord Chaichanna is showing how to do it.
Hearing these pastimes, Allah get gradually.
And by hearing these pastimes one can get gradually love for Ka.
