By Satyaraja Dasa
In more ways than one, the word “movement” captures the essence of Lord Caitanya’s religion of the holy name.
I offer my respectful obeisances to the devotees of the Lord. Simply by their hearing the two syllables Krishna, their bodily hairs stand up in ecstasy and they become moved to dance in ecstatic bliss. With their sandals they expertly extricate the fallen souls deeply sunk in the fetid mud of the ocean of repeated birth and death.
( Rupa Gosvami, Padyavali, Text 54)
