gaura nitai

So sahgopahgastra-parsadam. This is the description of the God, Krsna, in this age. That is Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Krsna-varnam tvisakrsnam sahgopahgastra-parsadam [SB 11.5.32]. And how to worship Him? What is the process? Yajnaiḥ sahkirtanaiḥ. That's all. You keep Caitanya Mahaprabhu's Deity and chant and dance-your life is successful. So easy. We are worshiping Radha-Krsna. That is very difficult. But if we keep Caitanya Mahaprabhu with His associates, this Panca-tattva, Gaura-Nitai, Gaura-Gadadhara, or Panca-tattva, and worship Him according to the sastra description... The sastra description is yajnaiḥ sahkirtanaiḥ. This is yajna. Life is meant for performing yajna. In the Bhagavad-gita it is said, yajnarthe karma. You are very busy. Yes, you should be busy always, twenty-four hours. For what purpose? Yajnarthe, not for your sense gratification. That is devotional life. Yajnarthe karma. Karma. We are not dull matter. We have got our flexible hands and legs to work. People think that "These Krsna conscious men, Hare Krsna people, they are escaping." What is that, escaping?    (More...)

So in this age, in Kali-yuga, it is very difficult to perform other yajna. Therefore Caitanya Mahaprabhu, Krsna, has appeared to accept your yajna, to deliver you, and the yajna process is very easy: yajnaiḥ sahkirtanaiḥ. That's all. Simply perform. Wherever you live, at home or outside home, just keep a picture of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and chant Hare Krsna mantra before Him. Then your life will be successful.    (More...)

You simply chant Hare Krsna mantra, and whatever you can, offer Caitanya Mahaprabhu. He is very kind. He does not take offense. Radha-Krsna worship is little difficult. We have to worship Him with great awe and veneration. But Caitanya Mahaprabhu has voluntarily come to deliver the fallen souls. Little service, He will be satisfied. He will be satisfied. But do not neglect. Because He is very kind and compassionate, that does not mean we should forget His position. He is the Supreme Personality of Godhead, so we should offer Him very great respect, and as far as possible... But the advantage is that Caitanya Mahaprabhu does not take any offense. And to worship Him, to please Him, is very easy. Yajnaiḥ sahkirtanaiḥ prayair yajanti hi su-medhasaḥ. Simply you chant Hare Krsna maha-mantra and dance, and Caitanya Mahaprabhu will be very pleased. He introduced this dancing and chanting, and this is the easiest process for God realization. So as far as possible... If possible, twenty-four hours. If that is not possible, at least four times, six times, chant Hare Krsna mantra before Caitanya Mahaprabhu, and you will get success in your life. This is a fact.    (More...)
