A recorded Śrī Caitanya-candrāmṛtam class given by His Holiness Jaya Pataka Swami on Nov 27, 2023 in Śrī Māyāpur. The speaker opens Chapter 7, "Firm devotion to the worshipable object," and comments on verses (around 60–62) describing how Lord Chaitanya attracts devotees, steals attachments to material/ritualistic practices, and bestows confidential Radha–Krishna prema (especially via the mood of separation). The talk also praises Navadvipa as a sweeter abode than Vaikuntha. Intercut with the theological lecture are organizational announcements about ISKCON's participation in the Ayodhya Ram temple inauguration, a book-distribution/book-marathon campaign, and local pledges to distribute Bhagavad-gīta and other books.

Sad Namara Die.
The confidential Radhakrishna Prema that is not attained even by the exclusive devotees of Krishna is obtained only by the shelter of the lotus feet of Lord Chaitanya.

Some worship the supreme personality of Godhead desiring the four goals of life, Religiosity, economic development, sense gratification and liberation. Let them do that. Or giving up other objects of worship, they become the exclusive servant of Lord Hari. Let them become but being greedy to taste some rare secret loving mellow of Radha and Krishna. I take shelter of the lotus feet of Lord Chaitanyachandra. So here is the special value of Lord Caitanya's devotion being devoted to Lord Caitanya. By worshipping the lotus feet of Lord Chaitanya, one naturally gains the loving devotion for Radha and Krishna.
You hear how the six Goswamis are used to running to the Vrindavan forest.
So we used to hear how the six Goswami they used to run to the Vrindavan forest.
So where is Radha and Madhava?
Where is Radha and Madhava?
Radha was saying, they're not oh, I have Lord Krishna. I have Lord. No, they're always seeking.
So Prabhupada used to say, they were not like, I have Radha and Krishna, I have Prema. They were not like that. They were always seeking.
And Lord Caitanya taught that by having a feeling of separation, Radha and Krishna.
So Lord Chaitanya thought, by having feeling of separation for Radha and Krishna, you.
Can always.
Be very close to Radha and Krishna.
You could be always very close to Radha and Krishna.

Whatever faith I had in worldly common activities and activities prescribed by the Vedic rules and regulations, my shyness in laughing loudly, chanting loudly, dancing and festivals and my natural activities related to to life and body. All these were stolen by a certain golden personality with great power.
Normally we put our priority either in the material world or in the Vedic regulations.
