Gaur Purnima ...Shri Chaitanya

[Guest guest]

Sri Chaitanya empowered Sri Nityananda and Sri

Adwaita Acharya to preach the glories of the Holy Name.

He empowered Sri Ramananda Raya to expound the Rasa

Tattva; Sri Swarupa Damodar Gosai to write elaborately on

the esoteric methods of Rasa Tattva along with

gradual development of the regulated process. The Lord

empowered Srila Rupa Goswami to elaborate on various

subjects, specifically on the science of Rasa Tattva and

these tasks were indeed accomplished by Sri Krishna

Chaitanya through the writings of Srila Rupa Goswami.

<br><br>The Lord empowered Srila Ragunath dasa Goswami to

explain engagement in loving devotional service along

with the gradual development of spontaneous love, with

the different levels of Rasa Tattva, following in the

footsteps of Swarupa Damodar Goswami. <br><br>Sri Chaitanya

empowered Srila Sanatana Goswami to write on Vaidhi Bhakti

and explain the inconceivable aspects of 'prakata'

and 'aprakata' lilas of Sri Krishna in Vraja. The

Lord empowered Sri Vakeswar Pandit to explain the

process of regulated devotional service. Sri Chaitanya

empowered Sri Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya to explain the

conclusions of His teachings according to Sambandha, Abhideya

and Prayojana. Sri Nityananda Prabhu and Srila

Sanatana Goswami blessed and empowered Srila Jiva Goswami

to expound the Sambandha, Abhideya and Prayojana and

he carried out this mission in his writings,

especially through the sad-sandarbhas. <br><br>Sri Chaitanya

empowered Sri Prabhodananda Goswami to explain the

supremacy of the sentiment of Vraja-rasa. The Lord

empowered Srila Gopal Bhatta Goswami to write on many

subjects, especially on how to check the imitation taste of

conjugal love and negligence in Vaidhi Bhakti. <br><br>Sri

Chaitanya empowered Srila Ragunatha dasa Goswami to preach

the supreme significance of the glories of Srimad

Bhagavatam. Sri Chaitanya also empowered other great acharyas

and their unlimited followers, who were also

transcendental poets, to perceive the Rasa Tattva through

Gaura-lila and to perceive Rasa Tattva through Krishna

kirtan. Accordingly, Sri Vrindaban dasa Thakur, Sri

Narottama dasa Thakur, Sri Locan dasa Thakur, Sri Govinda

dasa Thakur and many other followers of Sri Chaitanya

Mahaprabhu produced a vast array of literature, epics and

songs. In this way each one of these acharyas carried

out a particular assignment inducing the flower of

love of Godhead to finally blossom, fulfilling the

prediction of the Supreme Lord Sri Gaurahari - "All over the

world, in every town and village" .
