Why is that so? I will briefly elucidate this conclusion (siddhanta) here. Nityananda Tattva is very confidential, very deep and very complex. Nityananda is very mysterious, He is an avadhut, beyond all the rules and regulations and injunctions of shastra, yet he gets married and becomes a progenitor. He appears to be a contradictory, inconsistent personality. It is very difficult to fathom His nature and to reconcile His outlandish, seemingly irrational behaviour. Thus He is known as Nitai pagal, mad Nitai. He is transcendentally mad and anyone who tries to figure Him out intellectually will fail to do so. He is the embodiment of acintya bhedabheda tattva, one and different simultaneously, which is beyond human logic. Therefore Nityananda tattva can only be realised by the heart, by accepting the truth and the mood hidden in the heart of a pure, genuine Guru who can instil it in the heart of a sensitive, faithful disciple. Therefore Nityananda hides Himself and His tattva in a tricky way - only those who have unwavering faith in Him and in his agent, Sri Guru, can understand Him in truth. And ultimately we aspire to become as mad as Nitai or at least imbibe a drop of His mood of seva to His Gauranga.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNityananda\/Balaram expands Himself in many ways and serves Radha-Krishna in all rasas and in all circumstances, spiritual and material. One may pose the question, ‘Who is more important, Nityananda or Gauranga?’ One answer is that Gauranga is more important because attaining Gaura prema is our ultimate goal. Another answer is that They are equally important because even though Their mood is different, They are one in tattva. But our conclusion is that Nityananda is more important for us because without His kripa (mercy) we cannot attain Gaura. He takes us to Gauranga, He teaches us how to serve Gauranga and without Him there is no Gauranga. In Gaura lila we are Nitai das, not Gaura das. We are dasadasanudas, servants of the servants of Gauranga and Nitai is Gauranga’s topmost servant. Similarly, one may pose the question as to who is more important, Guru or Vaisnava. We may say that Guru is more important or that they are equally important but our conclusion is that the Vaisnava is more important because he shows us who is Guru, he leads us to Sri Guru, and without his kripa we cannot attain the association and the shelter of Sri Guru. And who is Sri Guru? He is Nityananda prakash (direct manifestation of Nitai). Nityananda is adi Guru, the primeval Guru, the origin of Guru tattva, the Guru of all Gurus. Without sadhu\/Vaisnava kripa we cannot get Sri Guru, without Guru kripa and Nitai kripa we cannot get Gauranga, without Gauranga kripa we cannot get Radharani kripa and without Her kripa we cannot attain Vrajendra-nandana Krishna.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTherefore it is said,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003enitai phele gaura pabe, gaura pabe vraje jabe, vraje jabe yugal seva\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“If you seek Nitāi you will get Gaura, if you get Gaura you can go to Braja, if you go to Braja you will get the service of the Divine Couple.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e‘Yugal’ means ‘two’ and refers to Yugal Kishor, the Divine Couple.

Why is that so? I will briefly elucidate this conclusion (siddhanta) here. Nityananda Tattva is very confidential, very deep and very complex. Nityananda is very mysterious, He is an avadhut, beyond all the rules and regulations and injunctions of shastra, yet he gets married and becomes a progenitor. He appears to be a contradictory, inconsistent personality. It is very difficult to fathom His nature and to reconcile His outlandish, seemingly irrational behaviour. Thus He is known as Nitai pagal, mad Nitai. He is transcendentally mad and anyone who tries to figure Him out intellectually will fail to do so. He is the embodiment of acintya bhedabheda tattva, one and different simultaneously, which is beyond human logic. Therefore Nityananda tattva can only be realised by the heart, by accepting the truth and the mood hidden in the heart of a pure, genuine Guru who can instil it in the heart of a sensitive, faithful disciple. Therefore Nityananda hides Himself and His tattva in a tricky way - only those who have unwavering faith in Him and in his agent, Sri Guru, can understand Him in truth. And ultimately we aspire to become as mad as Nitai or at least imbibe a drop of His mood of seva to His Gauranga.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eNityananda\/Balaram expands Himself in many ways and serves Radha-Krishna in all rasas and in all circumstances, spiritual and material. One may pose the question, ‘Who is more important, Nityananda or Gauranga?’ One answer is that Gauranga is more important because attaining Gaura prema is our ultimate goal. Another answer is that They are equally important because even though Their mood is different, They are one in tattva. But our conclusion is that Nityananda is more important for us because without His kripa (mercy) we cannot attain Gaura. He takes us to Gauranga, He teaches us how to serve Gauranga and without Him there is no Gauranga. In Gaura lila we are Nitai das, not Gaura das. We are dasadasanudas, servants of the servants of Gauranga and Nitai is Gauranga’s topmost servant. Similarly, one may pose the question as to who is more important, Guru or Vaisnava. We may say that Guru is more important or that they are equally important but our conclusion is that the Vaisnava is more important because he shows us who is Guru, he leads us to Sri Guru, and without his kripa we cannot attain the association and the shelter of Sri Guru. And who is Sri Guru? He is Nityananda prakash (direct manifestation of Nitai). Nityananda is adi Guru, the primeval Guru, the origin of Guru tattva, the Guru of all Gurus. Without sadhu\/Vaisnava kripa we cannot get Sri Guru, without Guru kripa and Nitai kripa we cannot get Gauranga, without Gauranga kripa we cannot get Radharani kripa and without Her kripa we cannot attain Vrajendra-nandana Krishna.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTherefore it is said,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003enitai phele gaura pabe, gaura pabe vraje jabe, vraje jabe yugal seva\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“If you seek Nitāi you will get Gaura, if you get Gaura you can go to Braja, if you go to Braja you will get the service of the Divine Couple.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e‘Yugal’ means ‘two’ and refers to Yugal Kishor, the Divine Couple.

Thus we follow the proper traditional sequence for remembering Sri Rādhā-Krishna's names, forms, qualities and pastimes, and make progress on the path of pure bhakti.As beginners we may start with ślokas from Śrī Upadeṣāmṛta, hearing or reading the commentaries and taking Harinam (‘chanting japa’) along with meditating on these ślokas. Then our sādhana-bhajana will gradually evolve as our insights deepen and as we add more ślokas to our repertoire. This practice will eventually lead us up to rasika scriptures such as Śrī Gopī-gīta, Śrī Vilāpa-kusumāñjali and Śrī Rādhā-Rasa-sudhānidhi. Deeper levels of the meanings of these sacred verses will manifest spontaneously in our hearts when it is done according to the traditional method. Śrīla Bhaktivedānta Nārāyaṇa Mahārāja describes this as follows,“When sādhakas study and learn these verses, deeply meditating within themselves on their meanings while chanting the holy name, they will act as stimuli to fully experience the mood described in these ślokas. Then one’s mind will not wander here and there. We should not just walk around talking to others while chanting, but taking our chanting beads we should sit in a solitary place and give it our mind and heart. Our previous ācāryas chanted all night long, meditating on one verse after another. For half an hour the waves of the bhava of one particular verse would be coming to them: sometimes they would be fully submerged in those waves, sometimes they would rise to the surface and float on those waves, and then they would move on to the next śloka. As they did this more and more the whole night would pass, and where it went, they wouldn’t even know. This is the traditional method of performing bhajan.” (Bhakti Rasayana, p.1, GVP)By meditating on one’s svarūpa (spiritual form) and rendering service (in that spiritual body) to the Divine Couple in the kuñjas of Vraja, in sakhī-bhāva (the mood of a mañjarī sakhī), one gets the lotus feet of Śrī Rādhā and Her beloved Kṛṣṇa.Ślokas, the sacred verses of the Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava transcendental scriptures, are prominent in our practice of bhakti and provide us with ‘cliff hangers’ to remember and meditate on the Divine Couple’s (Śrī Rādhā-Krishna’s) pastimes. The ślokas are like portals for entering into the confidential realm of pure bhakti and the mood we aspire for in the line of Mahāprabhu and the Six Goswāmīs (Śrī Rādhā dāsyam - mañjarī bhāva).We need to know and be familiar with some ślokas in order to perform our bhajan. At first we meditate on a particular pastime through its corresponding śloka and this is called mantra-mayī upāsanā, ‘worshiping through mantra’ or ‘meditating with ślokas’. For instance, the following śloka opens up ever-new possibilities for visualizing this particular pastime on the banks of Śrī Rādhā Kund.yasyāḥ kadāpī vasanāñcala-khelanotthadhanyāti-dhanya-pavanena kṛtārtha-mānīyogīndra-durgama-gatir madhusūdano ‘pitasyā namo ‘stu vṛṣabhānu-bhuvo diśe ‘pi(Śrī Rādhā-rasa-sudhā-nidhi 2, Śrīla Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī)“Let us bow down even to the direction of the land of Vṛṣabhānu Mahārāja (Vraja), for Madhusūdana Kṛṣṇa, who is the rarely attained goal of great yogis, considers that His life is completely fulfilled by the mere touch of that glorious, playful breeze that has touched the tip of Śrīmatī Rādhikā’s sari. He thinks, ‘Oh, My life has now returned.’”In addition to rasika ślokas one may use to enhance one’s bhajan, it is highly inspiring to read the ācāryas’ commentaries on such ślokas.\u003c\/span\u003e","published_at":"2020-01-12T20:40:10-12:00","created_at":"2020-01-12T22:13:50-12:00","vendor":"Rasbihari Lal \u0026 sons","type":"Book","tags":[],"price":500,"price_min":500,"price_max":500,"available":false,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":31708909010988,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":true,"featured_image":null,"available":false,"name":"Mantra Mayi Upasana: Meditating with Slokas while taking Harinam","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":500,"weight":500,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":null,"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/rasbiharilal.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Mantra_Mayi_Upasana.jpg?v=1578910430"],"featured_image":"\/\/rasbiharilal.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Mantra_Mayi_Upasana.jpg?v=1578910430","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":5993401385004,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.665,"height":400,"width":266,"src":"\/\/rasbiharilal.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Mantra_Mayi_Upasana.jpg?v=1578910430"},"aspect_ratio":0.665,"height":400,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/rasbiharilal.com\/cdn\/shop\/products\/Mantra_Mayi_Upasana.jpg?v=1578910430","width":266}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cspan\u003eWith their songs and their favourite scriptural ślokas our Rāgānuga Ācāryas share their hearts and confidential moods of love with us, and as practitioners we can share these jewels of the heart with each other.
