20230516 || Absorbed in Ecstatic Mood of Gopīs, Lord Caitanya Searches for Kṛṣṇa [2]] || Dallas, US

Recording of a multi-speaker spiritual discourse given by HH Jaya Pataka Swami on May 16, 2023 in Dallas, Texas (uploaded to YouTube). The speakers read and interpret Sri Chaitanya Charitamrita (chapter 15, texts ~38–61), recounting the Gopis’ search for Krishna—asking trees, creepers (Tulasi), deer, and noticing signs like garlands and fragrance—and portraying Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu’s absorption in the Gopis’ ecstatic mood (including fainting on seeing Krishna, manifesting multiple ecstatic symptoms). Themes include Raslila, Radharani, devotional relationships (five rasas), Srimad Bhagavatam quotations, and the eight ecstatic symptoms culminating in Prema/Mahabhava.

We had actually missed a few verses when we gave class in New Orleans. So we're going back to those verses.
That we missed and so we will continue like this.
So Translation why should the trees tell us where Krishna has gone? Let us rather inquire from the creepers. They are female and are therefore like friends to us.

So the Gopis in Vrindavan are very eager to see Krishna and therefore they're.
Asking they asked all the trees, have you seen Ka go by?
So they asked all the trees, have.
You seen Krishna go by?
And of course trees don't normally talk to you.
Of course trees don't normally talk to you.
In their enthusiasm Lolakrishna they said well the trees are male, they are friends of Krishna.
So in their enthusiasm and love of Ka they said the trees are male, maybe they are friends of Ka.
Therefore they are not telling us.

In this garden in Jagannath Puri. Cathana charitamita Leela chapter 15 text 39 they will certainly tell us where Ka has gone since they have seen him personally. Guessing in this way the Gopis inquired from the plants and creepers headed by Tulasi.

Krishna has gone save our life.
Sri Caitana Charitamitta Anjalila chapter 1542 when they still received no reply the Gopis thought these plants are all Krishna's maidservants and out of fear they will not speak to us.
The Gopis are speaking in this way.
They're so anxious to see Krishna that they're talking to the trees and plants touching the under his wire.
They're so anxious to see Krishna that they're talking to the trees and plants Expecting them to reply this is an.
Example how we can worship Krishna and separation.
This is an example how we can.
Worship Krishna in separation.
Sri Caitana charitamrita until chapter 15 takes 43 the Gopis then came upon a group of she deer. Smelling the aroma of Krishna's body and seeing the faces of the deer the Gopis inquired from them to ascertain if Ka was nearby. Chapter 15 text 44 translation to the verse Sh Caitanya Mahaprabhu said, O wife of the deer, Lord Krishna has been embracing his beloved and thus the Kumkum powder on her raised breast has covered his garland of Kunda flowers the fragrance of this garland is flowing here. Oh my dear friend, have you seen Krishna passing this way with his dear most companion Increasing the pleasure of the eyes of all of you Purport this verse is quoted From Srimad Bhagavatam 10.30.11.
Reliving the pastime of the Gopis searching.
For Krishna Lorjai Tanya was reliving the pastime of the Gopis searching for Krishna and actually. Actually there is no Gopis. This was all spoken by Lord Caitanya.
Mahaprabhu in the mood of the Gopis.
In the mood of the Gopis and.
He'S quoting from the Srimad Bhagavatam he's.
Quoting from the Srimad Bhagavatam.
They'Re looking.
For Krishna what the Gopis said when they were looking for Ka.
Rahupara explained that when they saw Radharani they were.
Very healthy Prabhupada explained that when they saw Radharani they were very happy.
Had.
Conquered Krishna that one of them had conquered Ka.
So Lord Chaitanya he is experiencing this madness and love for Krishna.
Lord Chaitanya, he is experiencing this madness.
And love for ka Chaitanya Charitamita Chapter 15645.
Shlokarthu Kohumrigi Radha Shahu Sri Krishna.
Oh dear. Though Sri Krishna is always very pleased to give you pleasure Kindly inform us whether he passed this way in the company of Rti Radharani we think they must certainly have come this way so.
Now they're talking to the female deer.
Now they are talking to the female.
Deer looking for Krishna.
How Krishna?
Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu is thinking about Krishna.
Radharani.
This way he is in meditation.
Trees peepers are asking the deers so.
He'S asking every trees creepers now he's asking the deers Actually.
He'S showing us this highest stage of pure love Actually.
He'S showing us this highest stage of pure love.
This could be achieved due course.
How this could be achieved in due course?
One actually is mad to find Krishna.
One is actually mad to find Krishna.
Shaitanya Charitamita Anjalila Chapter 15 Text 46.
Radha Priyushoki Amra.
We are not outsiders Being very dear friends of Shrimati Radharani we can perceive the bodily fragrance of Ka from a distance.
They are being with the deer not for well wishers.
So they're being with the deer they're saying that they are well wishers Adeer to Shrimati, Radharani to Krishna.
So you tell us where they are.
So you tell us where they are.
47.
Krishna has been embracing Shimati Radharani. And the Kunkuma powder on her breast.
Has mixed with the garland of Kunda flowers decorating his body.
The fragrance of the garland has scented the entire atmosphere.
I was explaining yesterday about five desert relationships.
See, I was explaining yesterday. There are five different relationships.
Everybody is connected to Krishna and all these relationships.
Everybody is connected to Krishna in one of these relationships. Neutral service, Friendship, Friendship, parental and conjugal. Chanta, Dasya, Sakya, Vatsalya and Madhurya.
So this is showing existing abodes in the Maduri Rasa.
So this is showing the existing abodes in the Madhuriya Rasa.
They go through all the five.
It's not that like someone asked yesterday, you have to go through all the five.
That such state exists, that is what Lord Chaitanya has.
Such a state exists is what Lord Chaitanya has given. But actually one may be a friend, a parent or a servant of Ka.
The trees and the emeralds, they're in the Shanta Rasa.
Or even like the trees and the animals there in the Shanta Rasa.
Service. They just there and they appreciate the Lord.
They don't offer service. They're there and they appreciate the Lord.
R. Caitana charitamrita until Lila chapter 15 takes 48.
Krishnoiha chari gala iho birohini kiba nashune Kahini.
Lord Krishna has left this place. And therefore the deer are feeling separation. They do not hear our words. Therefore how can they reply?
Now they are thinking these deer I see Ka, now he goes somewhere else.
So the Gopis, they are thinking that these deer have seen Krishna and now they have gone somewhere else.
That's why they are feeling such of the race. And they cannot hear us, cannot speak to us.
And therefore they are feeling such separation. They cannot hear us and they cannot speak to us.
Brother used to say Atmanal when you.
Change Prabhupada used to say there's a saying Atmanam Magati, Atmanam magnate Jagat Atmatam Manyate Jagat.
How you think you think the whole world thinks.
As you think, you think the whole world thinks.
I feel that satisfaction. I think all the deer wants to see in such life.
The Gopis they're feeling in separation of Ka. So they think that the deer they must be feeling in separation of Krishna.
We can have such intense love with the supreme person of God. I can always be completely absorbed loving.
Krishna we can have such love for the Supreme Personality of Godhead like the Gopis are feeling such separation for Ka.
Caitanya Charitamita Anjalila Chapter 15 Text 49 the Gopis then came upon many trees so laden with fruits and flowers that their branches were bent down to the ground. Chichaitana Charitamith.
Krishnade Ki e Sab Karen Namoskar Krishna Gomon Puchy Tare Kuriya Nirdha.
The Gopis thought that because all the trees must have seen Ka pass by, they were offering respectful obeisances to him. To be certain, the Gopis inquired from.
The trees.
They are saying trees overlaid with fruits.
So they are seeing the trees overladed with fruits. They seem to be bowing down.
Thinking that these trees are all things that are what leads us to Krishna.
But they are thinking that these trees are offering their obeisances to Krishna. Lord Chaitanya he is in this mood.
Sri Caitanya charitamita Antalila chapter 15 text 51.
Shastra Drishtanta Shrimad Bhagavati Dashamskandhi Thirish Namburudhaya Barunambur Shlok.
Translation to the verse Lord Caitanya continued, O trees, kindly tell us whether Balaram's younger brother Krishna welcomed your obeisances with loving glances as he passed this way, resting one hand on the shoulder of Shrimati Radharani, holding a lotus flower in the other, and being followed by a swarm of bumblebees maddened by the fragrance of Tulasi flowers purport this verse is quoted From Srimad Bhagavatam 10.30.12.
A while ago, Lord Chaitanya, he was saying different verses from Srimad Bhagavatam.
All right, how the Gobis are feeling love.
And remembering how the Gopis were feeling when Krishna left from the Ras.
Leela he's acting this way, talking to all the trees, deers.
So he's acting in this way, talking to all the trees, the deers, everything.
He is completely observed, the Lord of Allies.
He is completely absorbed in the mood of the Gopis.
Chichaitanya chaitam antilila chapter 15, text 52 to stop the bumble leaves from landing on the face of his beloved, he whisked them away with the lotus flower in his hand and thus his mind was slightly diverted.
That meditating what Krishna wants to do.
So they are meditating what Krishna must.
Be doing in his relationship.
In his relationship with Rmati Radharani it says that Ka and Radharani were one.
He extended.
Her.
Light of the two.
Then he expanded and they divided into two.
So that he could enjoy self social loving relationship.
So that he can enjoy and relish spiritual relationships.
So Krishna.
So we are all meant actually to serve Krishna. We are very infinitesimal, very small, very small.
We have that capacity to love.
We have that capacity to love families.
Of their community, other nation.
Normally people love their family, their community or their nation.
Some people they love all human beings.
Some people they love all human beings.
I show God to love a supreme person. I love it.
The actual goal of life is to love the supreme personality of Godhead that has been achieved.
Lord Chaitanya is saying that that has been achieved.
Lord Chaitanya is showing that following in the footsteps by following in the footsteps of the Gopis.
Chapter 15 text 53.
Tomaru praname ki koira chen Nabodhan ki Banahi koren koho.
But.
Did he or did he not pay attention while you offered him obeisances? Kindly give evidence supporting your words.
Bend down in their throats.
He is addressing this to the trees who are bent down laden with fruits.
The trees are not going to reply.
And the trees are not going to reply.
So I really so much now that.
Vai Krishna it shows that how he's feeling. He's so enamored by Krishna.
Completely out of this world.
He's doing things which are completely out of this world.
Shri Caitana chaitamita Anjalila chapter 15 text 54.
Krishnarobi Jogi Shevokodu kito.
Separation from Krishna has made these servants very unhappy. Having lost consciousness, how can they answer us?
Try not to understand why the trees are not refined.
They're trying to understand why the trees are not replying.
They said they must have lost the association of Krishna they said they must.
Have lost the association of Ka Very unhappy.
They're feeling very unhappy.
They're great sufferings and great happiness. They do not reply to us.
Therefore they're feeling great separation, great unhappiness and they are not flying to us.
Saying this. The Gopis stepped onto the beach by the Yamuna river. There they saw Lord Krishna beneath a kadamba tree standing there with his flute to his lips. Ka who enchants millions upon millions of cupids attracted the eyes and minds of all the world with his unlimited beauty.
Gopis saw Krishna standing there looks flute.
To his lips and it describes he attracts millions and millions of cubits.
It describes he attracts millions and millions of cupids.
All right, one cupid this Is arrows to attract.
Normally one cupid uses his arrows to attract someone.
What millionth of millionth of cupids could be attracted by Ka?
Millions and millions of cupids could be attracted by Krishna.
Krishna is all attractive.
Krishna is all attractive and all beautiful. Is all beautiful.
Satisfy the sea of beauty and Krishna.
So the Gopis, they are so much satisfied to see the beauty of Krishna.
Searching for Salah but they have been.
Searching for for so Long.
R. Caitanya Charitamrita Anjalila Chapter 1557.
Krishna Darshane Prabhur Murcha Obhaktogane Choitano Shampadhan.
When.
R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu saw the transcendental beauty of Krishna, he fell down on the ground unconscious. At that time all the devotees headed by Swarup Damadar Goswami joined him in the garden.
In his ecstasy on Chaitanya.
Mahaprabhu Sakhasra in his ecstasy, Lord Caitanya.
Mahaprabhu saw Ka Seeing the unlimited transcendental beauty of Krishna.
Seeing the unlimited transcendental beauty of Krishna, he was so overwhelmed he fainted to the ground. I mean externally no one could see anything externally.
Externally.
There was the garden and then they were watching him. He fainted.
Lord Chaitanya Singh he was feeling this ecstasy.
Lord Chaitanya he was seeing Krishna. He was feeling this ecstasy and he became overwhelmed and fainted.
All other devotees were racing after him.
And all the other devotees were racing after him.
They saw him lying down in the garden.
Then they saw him laying down in the garden unconscious.
Surabhdamodar Goswami was there and others. Chapter 1558.
Purva Bato Sharvange.
Just as.
Before, they saw all the symptoms of transcendental ecstatic love manifested in the body of Sh Caitanya Mahprabhu Although externally he appeared bewildered, he was tasting transcendental bliss within.
So long bewildered or something unreal.
So someone may appear bewildered or something un unnormal.
But although some of them may think oh, he's sick or something, Although someone.
May think oh, he is sick or.
Something, it actually transcendently explains ecstasy and bliss within.
Actually he is feeling transcendental ecstasy and bliss within.
Fully satisfied.
Fully satisfied.
Fully overwhelmed with Lord Krishna.
Fully overwhelmed with love for Kajad.
Eight Ecstatic Symptoms it is said that.
Normally there is eight ecstatic symptoms.
One experiences one or two of these at one time.
One experiences one or two of these at one time.
Chaitanya Mahaprabhu her so advanced Krishna Chaitanya.
Mahaprabhu was so advanced in Ka Prema.
That it manifests almost all at one time.
In that he had manifest almost all of them at one time.
The Lord is chanted, seal aside, crying, stunned, other things at one time.
So when the devotees came and seeing him perspiring, crying and stunned and all these symptoms at one time.
Sri Caitai thanya Charitamrita Anjalila Chapter 1559 Once again all the devotees brought Sri Caitanya Mahprabhu back to consciousness by concerted effort. Then the Lord got up and began wandering here and there looking all around.
Wake the Lord up.
So the devotees were chanting to wake the Lord up.
Looking all around.
But obviously he was looking all around.
Where is Krishna?
Where is Krishna?
He had seen Krishna.
He had seen Krishna Then he fainted.
And all that.
Now they brought him back.
He'S looking where is Krishna? Where is Krishna?
Sri Chaitanya charitamita Anthelila chapter 15 text 60.
Krishna Darshan Bonchita Prabhuur Bila Kaha Galo Krishna.
Chaitanya Mahprabhu said, where has my Krishna gone? I saw him just now and his beauty has captivated my eyes and mind.
Chaitanya Mahstatic love for Krishna so in.
His Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's ecstatic love for Krishna he saw Krishna. He saw Krishna. He was captivated by the beauty of Krishna he became stunned and unconscious.
When he came chant Hare Krishna with a concert.
To consciousness the devotees came, enchanted Hare Krishna with a concerned effort and brought him back to consciousness. Lord Chaitanya is looking everywhere where has gone my Ka? Transcendental experiences he is going through all these transcendental experiences.
See Caitanya Charitamvita Anjalila Chapter 15 Text 61 why can't I again see Ka holding his flute to his lips? My eyes are wandering in hopes of seeing him once more.
So Lord Chaitanya Maharu is sharing with us his experience on seeing Lord Krishna.
Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu is sharing with us his experience of seeing Lord Ka.
He'S giving us this blessing he's giving us.
This blessing.
That if we follow his footsteps, chant Hare Ka that eventually we can develop this love for Krishna.
Other things they like take some intoxication.
People under condition usually like to take.
Some intoxication but that wears off. It's all artificial.
That wears off and it's all artificial.
Here you see the Lord Krishna that's what becomes over.
Well here we see that actually in the love of Ka one becomes overwhelmed Mad Lord Chaitanya so there is eight levels of love up to Prema.
Prema Eight levels of Prema In Prema.
There are eight levels of Prema. The highest level is known as Mahabhav.
Only a few devotees reach this level.
Lord Caitanya Radharani Madhavindrapuri Only a few devotees reach this level.
All of those Prema are wonderful.
But all the levels of Prema are wonderful.
We engage in Krishna consciousness can eventually experience some of these ecstatic symptoms.
So if we engage in Ka consciousness, then eventually we can experience some of these ecstatic symptoms.
Thus ends the chapter entitled Absorbed in In the Ecstatic Mood of the Gopis, Lord Caitanya searches for Krishna under the section the Transcendental Madness of Lord R. Caitanya Mahaprabhu.
