Guest guest Posted July 19, 2002 Report Share Posted July 19, 2002 If a bird chants 'Gauranga'... In the Chaitanya-bhagavata, the glories of Lord Gauranga's name is described in Madhya-khanda 10.318: paksi-matra yadi bale caitanyera nama; sei satya jaibeka caitanyera dhama. "If even a bird chants the name of Lord Gauranga, it will most certainly attain the transcendental eternal abode of Lord Gauranga Mahaprabhu." In the Navadvipa-bhava taranga by Bhaktivinoda Thakura, it is stated: yatha deva-gana kore gaura-sankirtana; kabhu dhama-vasi taha korena sravana. (56) "Even the demigods continuously engage in Gauranga-sankirtana (congregational chanting of the names of Lord Gauranga) in Navadvipa. Sometimes the residents of the dhama participate and hear the sankirtana." keho va bolibe gaurahari bolo bhai; gaura-vina radha-krsna-seva nahi pai. (57) "Please chant the name of Gauranga because without Lord Gauranga's mercy one will never achieve service to Sri Radha-Krsna." Daso'smi, Bhaktiratna Sadhu Swami (Kindly forgive me if I will not be able to respond immediately to email philosophical queries related to this email or otherwise due to the heavy load of book writing, translation, publication and preaching work at present.)
