Recorded class by His Holiness Jayapataka Swami Maharaj (Nov 13, 2023, Sri Ramayapur, India) teaching from Sri Chaitanya-candrāmṛtam (chapter 4, Shri Caitanya Bhakta Mahima). The lecture covers Bengali recitations of verses (24–26 range), English translations (quoted from Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur and others), and expository remarks emphasizing: humility of Lord Chaitanya's devotees, the unique and immediate mercy of Lord Chaitanya enabling secret love of Krishna, and that even vast austerities or scriptural study cannot equal a small portion of Caitanya Mahaprabhu's mercy. Multiple assistants interject to paraphrase and clarify.
