Which is better – seeing Krishna face to face or feeling intense separation from Him ?

Hare Krsna

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada

Being always absorbed in the ecstasy of Srimati Radharani, Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu felt the sameseparation from Krishna that Srimati Radharani felt when Krishna left Vrindavana and went to Mathura.This ecstatic feeling is very helpful in attaining love of God in separation. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu has taught everyone that one should not be overlyanxious to see the Lord, but should rather feel separation from Him in ecstasy. It is actually better to feel separation from Him than to desire to see Him face to face.

- Caitanya Carithamritha, Madhya Leela, 1.56.
