His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad
Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj
Sri Nabadwip Dham
11 December 2010

 

Today is the appearance day of Nitai Gaurachandra in Puri.

Actually, you know that Deities always come through devotees. Nitai Gaura eagerly came in Kalna through a devotee's hand—through Gauri Das Pandit's hand; and our Gaura Nitai in Puri came through Gurudev's hand. The Lord takes the hand of His devotee and comes in the form of a Deity...

Deity can talk, Deity bears witness, Deity is nondifferent from Krishna of Vrindavan (saksad Vrajendra Nandan)—the Lord Himself comes in the form of a Deity. What does Lord Krishna come for? What do Gaura Nitai come for? To distribute, to spread out all mercy. Why did Srila Sridhar Maharaj make this temple here and established Sri Sri Guru Gauranga Gandharva Govindasundar? What is the benefit?

Today is a very nice day, Gaura Nitai's manifestation festival. When the Deities were installed, there was a big festival at that time—the King of Odisha also came to the inauguration ceremony.

Where Your Desire
Can Take You
Two lessons taught by Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu: both King Prataparudra and Damodar Pandit had strong desire for Mahaprabhu's mercy and earnestness in service, but was their attainment the same?

 

Sri Sri Damodarastakam
'O Lord Damodara, just as the two sons of Kuvera—Manigriva and Nalakuvara—were delivered from the curse of Narada and made into great devotees by You in Your form as a baby tied with rope to a wooden grinding mortar, in the same way, please give to me Your own prema-bhakti. I only long for this and have no desire for any kind of liberation.'

Again and again we do Nabadwip Dham Parikrama, but how much can we use
ourselves for the service to the Guru, Vaishnavs, and Bhagavan?
