“Locana Dasa Thakura says, parama karuna, pahu dui jana, nitai gauracandra—these two brothers, Lord Nityananda and Lord Caitanya, are supremely merciful. Saba avatara, sara siromani—They are the essence of all incarnations. And kevala ananda-kanda—the method they teach is simply joyful. But the author further explains, visaya chadiya, se rase majiya—in order to become fully absorbed in the nectarean mellows of this blissful process, one must give up sense gratification. Now, someone might think, ‘I thought that there were no conditions, that the process is simply joyful.’ But the truth is that sense gratification which works against the success of devotional service is best given up.”
