Hare Krishna

 

I wanted to know why the Panca Tattva Deities are arranged in that order ?

 

Sri Advaita Acarya, Sri Nityananda Prabhu, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu, Sri Gadadhara Pandit, Sri Vasadi.

 

Just a question that always popped in my head.

 

Your Servant,

Bhakta David

    Hare Krishna David Prabhu, please accept my humble obeisances! all glories to Srila Prabhupada!

    Srimati Radharani as a consort of Sri Krishna stands always in the left side of Krishna. And Lord Balaramji as a Brother stands in right side.

    it says that if a person is ones relative than he should sit in the right lap but if he is his wife than one sits on the left lap. In this way in the right side of Lord Krishna Chitanya is He Himself (as brother, or other expansions)  but in the left His Internal energy as His wife...

    hope Devotees will write in by bringing examples from shastras.

     

    Your servant,
