  1. everything above said by 'stonehearted' was very good.

    here is something taken from 'Caitanya Bhagavata'

     

    Sri Caitanya Bhagavata - Madhya Lila - Chapter 23

     

    He began to dance, lifting the devotees in soaring heights of ecstacy. Everyone began

    chanting loudly and whoever saw the Lord's moonlike beautiful face was released from

    the searing pain of material existence.

    The Lord's charming looks overshadowed the attractiveness of millions of cupids put

    together. I am at a loss to find the appropriate similies to describle the Lord's beauty

    yet i venture to do so only by His mercy alone, otherwise who can dare to attempt such

    an impossible task.

    He glowed like a mountain of gold. His body being smeared with sandal paste sometimes

    looked like the rising full moon. His curly dark tresses were decorated with the fragrant

    Malati garlands. A sweet smile clung intimately to His lips that can win the hearts of

    all the muses. The clear markings of sandalwood tilak with a red dot of vermillion adorned

    His beautiful forehead.

    He raised His arms up in the sky chanting the name of Hari and danced, the knee long

    flower garland around His neck swayed with each movement. His upraised arms glistened like

    fine tapering pillars of gold. His body became drenched with incessant flow of ecstatic

    tears from His lotus petal eyes.

    As the ecstatic feelings increased, the hairs of His body stood on end like the ever fresh

    Kadamba flower. The moist reddish lips so exquisite and when parted revealed a symmetrical

    set of pearl-like white teeth. The long arched eyebrows languished almost all the way up to

    the beginning of His ears. His strong shoulders shamed the king of the elephants and His

    chest was broad and full. The brahman thread hung loosely across His chest.

    Laksmi devi and Tulasi devi are constantly praying for the shelter of His lotus feet. That

    Supreme Lord wears His fine and clean clothes very artistically. The uplifted nose is

    aristocratic and the sinewy tendons of His neck gives the impression of being the neck

    of the king of the forest, strong and powerful.

    He towers over the others. His long body well formed and proportionate whining like a

    mountain of Mother gold. Everyone looking at Him commented on His divine beautiful presence.

    The millions who milled around for this momentous occasion were very fortunate. In spite of

    their large number, they all received the Lord's benedictions of being able to see the Lord's

    exquisite transcendental face. They simply stared at Him, irresistably drawn to His beauty

    and exclaimed out aloud the Lord's name each time uncontrollable emotions welled within

    their hearts.


  2. well it is no doubt interesting, i hope he isn't a fake. i don't know why people put him down, of course it is better to chant Hare Krsna, and speak of Krsna, but he is on the path of enlightnment, hopefully, if he realises Brahman, that is step in the right direction, read your Gita.

    It sure sounds like some people around here are jealous of him, why, i don't know.

    Go little dude!

     


  3. 'Caitanya Bhagavata' by Vrndavana dasa Thakura (Antya Lila - chapter 4)

     

    'Lord Krsna Himself says that how can any person worship Him and not worship Siva?.

    How can one develop love for Krsna if he disregards Lord Siva who is so dear to Lord Krsna.

    In the Srimad Bhagavatam it says "How can anyone render devotional service to Me without

    worshipping My dear devotee Siva in the proper devotional mood. A person who does not

    respect Siva is envious of the Vaisnavas and is a sinful reprobate."

    Again, in the Skanda Purana it says "First one should worship Lord Krsna, the cause of all

    causes, and then worship the best of the demigods, Lord Siva. Then all the other demigods

    should be worshiped with great faith and devotion."

    Sri Advaita Arcarya is accepted by the saintly personalities as Siva himself. This is so

    because Lord Caitanya gave sufficient indications to establish this truth.'
