Guest guest Posted December 24, 2000 Report Share Posted December 24, 2000 Dear Bhaktivikasa Maharaja, Please accept my most humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! I found the following in the Cc. šdi 5.203, purport (I do not know if you are using fonts with diacritics, so I have copied them with and witout crits): A. ----- ®r…la Raghun€tha d€sa Gosv€m… has described San€tana Gosv€m… in his prayer Vil€pa-kusum€ñjali, verse six, where he has expressed his obligation to San€tana Gosv€m… in the following words: vair€gya-yug-bhakti-rasaˆ prayatnair ap€yayan m€m anabh…psum andham kp€mbudhir yaƒ para-duƒkha-duƒkh… san€tanas taˆ prabhum €ray€mi “I was unwilling to drink the nectar of devotional service possessed of renunciation, but San€tana Gosv€m…, out of his causeless mercy, made me drink it, even though I was otherwise unable to do so. Therefore he is an ocean of mercy. He is very compassionate to fallen souls like me, and thus it is my duty to offer my respectful obeisances unto his lotus feet.” ----- B. ----- Srila Raghunatha dasa Gosvami has described Sanatana Gosvami in his prayer Vilapa-kusumanjali, verse six, where he has expressed his obligation to Sanatana Gosvami in the following words: vairagya-yug-bhakti-rasam prayatnair apayayan mam anabhipsum andham krpambudhir yah para-duhkha-duhkhi sanatanas tam prabhum asrayami "I was unwilling to drink the nectar of devotional service possessed of renunciation, but Sanatana Gosvami, out of his causeless mercy, made me drink it, even though I was otherwise unable to do so. Therefore he is an ocean of mercy. He is very compassionate to fallen souls like me, and thus it is my duty to offer my respectful obeisances unto his lotus feet." ----- Thank you for the opportunity. Hare Krishna.
