These are the practical experience of mahajana, Brahma. The Brahma-samhita is written by Brahma. He's mahajana. Mahajana means the person who knows Krsna. The mahajanas are described, you know: twelve mahajanas. Naradaḥ svayambhūḥ sambhuḥ. Narada is mahajana, and Brahma is mahajana, Svayambhū. And Lord Siva is mahajana. Kapilaḥ kumaro manuḥ prahlado bhismaḥ. The mahajanas are there. So we have to follow. Mahajano yena gataḥ sa panthaḥ [Cc Madhya 17.186].    (More...)

Krsna Caitanya, Sri Krsna Caitanya, He has got manyfold expansion. The first expansion is prakasa, svayam-prakasa, Balarama. And Nityananda is Balarama. Vrajendra-nandana yei, saci-sūta hoilo sei, balarama hoilo nitai. We have to understand from the mahajana, Narottama dasa Thakura. Sometimes some foolish people interpret Nityananda as expansion of Radharani, but that is not the fact. Nityananda is Balarama. We have to know from mahajana. We cannot manufacture our own idea. That is blasphemy, sahajiya. Yata mat tata path. These things are not accepted by mahajana. Mahajana means who follows the previous mahajana. This is the system. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu strictly followed this principle. Krsna also recommended, evam parampara-praptam [Bg 4.2].    (More...)
