Some time I have the feeling, that we forget that we are gaudya vaishnavas, the devotees of Lord Caitanya.
In one of his famous verses Srila Vishvanata Cakravarti Thakura says:
ArAdyo bhagavAn vrajeza-tanayas tad dhAma vRndAvanam
ramya kAcid upAsanA vraja-vadhU-vargeNa ya kalpitA
zrImad bhAgavataM pramANam amalaM premA pumArtho mahAn
ZrI caitanya mahAprabhor matam idaM tatrAdhara naH paraH
The worshipable object – aradya (is that) Supreme Lord – bhagavan
born from the body of – tanayas the Lord of Braja – Vraja-ISa (referece to Nanda Maharaja and of course mother Yazoda, whose son is that “naravata lila kRSNa” – Krishna of “human like” pastimes, or madhur Krishna – the sweetest Krishna, not the Mathura-natha Krishna - “Krishna of Majesty and opulence” - who appeared in the mind of Vasudeva and was transferred in the womb of Devaki, but that Krishna that was really born from the body of mother Yazoda) and
His holly abode Vrindavan is in the same way worshipable - tad dhama vrndavanam .
Of any kind of worship– kacit upasana , THE MOST PLEASING (for the Lord) – ramya
is THE PATH shown - vargena ya kalpita
by the married women of vraja (the gopis) – vraja vadhu
(who renounced even the religious principles of dharma, just to please Krishna, a path which is not possible for Sri Laxmi) .
Srimad Bhagavatam is the pure, spotless evidence- zrImad bhAgavataM pramanam amalam -
and premA –the divine ecstatic love is the highest goal of humankind - pumartho mahan (beyond karma, artha, kama and moksha).
These (concisely) comprise the opinion (the teachings) of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu – ZrI caitanya mahAprabhor matam idaM
and we don’t have attachment – nah adhara
for any other (type of worship oder teaching)- tatra paraha .
