Why is She so much in love with Me ? - from Caitanya Caritamrita - Adi Lila

The above quote is by Lord Krishna Himself...that is part of the following, from Srila Prabhupada's Caitanya Caritamrita, Adi Lila: 

Radha and Krsna are one, and when Krsna desires to enjoy pleasure, He manifests Himself as Radharani. The spiritual exchange of love between Radha and Krsna is  the actual display of the internal pleasure potency of Krsna. Although we speak of "when" Krsna desires, just when He did desire we

One should aspire to chant the Hare Krsna mantra constantly:
In our Krsna consciousness movement we are teaching our followers to
chant the Hare Krsna mantra continuously on beads. Even those who are
not accustomed to this practice are advised to chant at least sixteen
rounds on their beads so that they may be trained. Otherwise, Sri
Caitanya Mahaprabhu recommended:
trnad api sunicena

This sounds like an apparent contradiction, however this is where the inconceivable mercy of Lord Krishna Chaitanya comes to save us. He showed us how the Lord is inconceivable, and how He is simultaneously one

There is nothing sweeter than chanting the holy names of God in a mood of loving devotion because such chanting brings one into direct contact with the Supreme Person Himself.
