Here is the Deities' darshan from Saturday. The Lords accepted Their
devotees' dressing: cloths with peacocks dancing in fields of
flowers.
In Saturday morning's Bhagavatam class Bhurijana Prabhu spoke with us about
life’s ultimate goal: the essence of the Bhagavatam. He referred to Caitanya-caritamrta Adi-lila 7.92–96:
(Lord Caitanya’s spiritual master told Him)
‘My dear child, continue dancing, chanting and performing sankirtana in
association with devotees. Furthermore, go out and preach the value of
chanting krsna-nama, for by this process You will be able to deliver all
fallen souls.’
“Saying this, My spiritual master taught Me a verse from
Srimad-Bhagavatam. It is the essence of all the Bhagavatam’s instructions;
therefore he recited this verse again and again.
‘When a person is actually advanced and takes pleasure in chanting the
holy name of the Lord, who is very dear to him, he is agitated and loudly
chants the holy name. He also laughs, cries, becomes agitated and chants
just like a madman, not caring for outsiders.’ (SB 11.2.40)
“I firmly believe in these words of My spiritual master, and therefore I
always chant the holy name of the Lord, alone and in the association of
devotees. That holy name of Lord Krishna sometimes causes Me to chant and
dance, and therefore I chant and dance…”
