The Golden Incarnation

Grail of human anticipation is to save oneself from suffering . Everyone has some desire ,so that their every work circulating around the bonds of Ahamkara, which means I , Me & Mine . This selfishness has different degrees , the extreme of this ego is always destructive . The Man made society has different behavior towards different people ; He is this, or She is that- these kinds of judgement result in the imbalance of Man’s Spiritual Nature . Acceptance of any being as it is , is a rare phenomenon . 'Jesus Christ accepted Magdalene' or 'Sri Rama accepted Sabari' indicates the value of acceptance as well as the fraternity of living creatures .

    It's the medieval India, Various Great Souls such as Ramanujacharya, Vallabha,Ramananda, Srimanta Sankardeva, Guru Nanak and many more challenged the social discrimination . After the disappearance of Siddhartha Buddha, the society recreated various supremacy based on caste ,appearance and all. Hence , the spirituality’s degraded ; To turn the human gaze towards Bhakti , Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu appeared in the late fifteen Century AD . Chaitanya , Also Known as Gauranga Mahaprabhu ,is the embodiment of Bhakti & humbleness . About His Bhakti movement ,later Swami Vivekenanda Wrote - ‘ He has flooded mercy to everyone untiringly.Till now this community has become the place of shelter for poor, weak,denclassed,fallen,inferior,sinner,distressed and persons having no place in society .’

     

As a kid , Chaitanya was mischievous , but as Time passes He became a great scholar & professor of his time. But, It is He who saw the degradation of society & religion that it has no place for the meek & weak. He, the man of Great renunciation embraced Sannyasa , He renounced his enjoyment and started preaching Krishna consciousness to masses . Many resisted His movement, but Gauranga’s Love has no end . His Non violent civil disobedience against Chand Kazi was India’s 1st civil disobedience (more than 400 years earlier than Gandhi) . With high-grade love & respect , Mahaprabhu distributed the Love of Godhead to everyone & propagated the Sankirtana movement .

As per Mahaprabhu’s Own words,

              ‘ Trinad api sunichena

               Taro api sahisshnuna

            Amanina manadena

             Kirtaniya sada hari’

(Meaning : Be humble like a straw, more tolerant like a tree; always offer respect to others without expecting anything in return & chant the names of Krishna .)

His philosophy is so simple , it’s to love the divine without expecting anything in return (Jibe doya Ishware prem); There’s no difference between the teachings of bhagvad Gita & that of Sri Chaitanya . His unconditional love embraces everybody – from a brahmin to a chandala, from a saint to even sinner; He blessed those ,whom the society had rejected for ages. This Love or Devotion is extremely pure as because there’s no business of in return , Neither for material benefit nor for heavenly enjoyment. There’s even no desire for liberation , it’s completely spiritual love beyond the bonds of Prakritik phenomenon . In this state , One is not the body nor mind , but the Spirit , which belongs to Sri Krishna only (Jiver Svarup hoi Krishner Nitya Das). Hence , Dedication of Work, knowledge & Love to Krishna is the supreme spiritual escasity. Without Love , knowledge & Work are just futile.

There’s a person namely Vasudev lived in Kurmakshetra (16th AD), who was a leper, this humble person was disgusted by ordinary person. But , Mahaprabhu is so affectionate that he embraced him ,hugged him , There’s no need of any qualification or prosperty for devotion . Mahaprabhu liberated him. Another Leela of Gauranga was that, During his staying In Orissa , He even blessed a dog which was abandoned by others. His such leelas indicated the ideal of acceptance , to love everybody and to develop a better brotherhood.

Mahaprabhu Himself described the unconditional love!

                       Na Dhana na jana na sundari kabita ba Jagdisha kamayaae

‘ O Lord , I’ve No wish to accumulate material profits ,followers , sensual pleasure & excellency in poetry ;i only want your Devotion life after life ’

Chaitanya , The preacher of Love & Bhakti uplifted the mankind to higher consciousness . He lived among people, he danced with people , he healed those for whom the spiritual door was closed; There’s no end to His mercy & Greatness .Actually, There is no difference between Yashoda- Nandan & Saci-Nandan, There’s no difference between Vrindavan leela & Gaur Leela ,There is no difference between Krishna & Gauranga . The Bhagvata say So. O Gaura Hari, please nurture all of us with your Unconditional Love ; As the Bhakti poet prays- ‘ Gauranga bolite hobe puloko Soriro , Hari Hari bolite noyone bohe niro ’

( when my body will be trembling as I chant His name ? & my eyes will fill with water whenever I chant Hari Hari )
