Guest guest Posted August 17, 2002 Report Share Posted August 17, 2002 Nityananda-Nam-Mahima What follows is a wonderful reply I got from one ecstatic devotee to my email "16 reasons to regularly chant 'Nityananda'". I just want to share it with all of you. Hope you drown in an ocean of bliss. Daso'smi, Tridandi Bhikshu Bhaktiratna Sadhu. Jai Nitai! Jai Nitai! Jai Nityananda Rai. All glories to Lord Nityananda Haladhar Balaram. Jai Nitai! Jai Nitai! Jai Sripad Gosai! Jai nitya Nitai! Glories of Lord Nitai are unlimited. All glories to Nitai. All glories to Nitaicand. All glories to the moon of Ekachakra. All glories to the son of Sriman Hadai Pandit. All glories to Lord Lakshman. All glories to Lord Nitai who in the ecstatic mood of remembrance of Sri Ramlila, fainted as Lakshman in a childhood pastime drama play and came to external consciousness only when sanjivani was brought by the boy acting as Hanumanji! All glories to Lord Nityananda Ram who is a crest jewel in the heart of Lord Gauranga. All glories to Lord Nityananda Avadhut who broke Lord Gaurasundar's sannyas danda! All glories to Sriman Nityananda Ram the life soul of all vaishnavas. Lord Nityananda is the selfsame Lord Haladhar who punched Pralambhasur. Lord Nityananda is the same Lord Balaram who killed Romasharna Rishi who offended Him by ignoring His authority. This Lord Nityananda is the same personality who ran with Haridas Thakur jokingly fearing that His life is in danger from his two most dearest devotees Sri Jagannath and Sri Madhav who were infamous in Nadia as Jagai and Madhai. Madhai however is the most shining star amongst the devotees of Lord Nitai. Lord Nitai's compassion towards Jagai and Madhai is exemplary in precedence. Lord Nityananda is the flower garland ever attached to Lord Gauranga's broad chest around whom all vaishnavas circumambulate like bumblebees. Without Lord Nitai there is no question of any hints of devotion. "Devotion to Lord Gaura" originates from Lord Nitai. All other "devotions" are mere exercises in futility. One who is not taken efforts to be blessed by the Supremely wonderful nayak Lord Nitai, such a person's life is simply a waste. Lord Nitai roars in ecstasy by remembering the Lord of His heart - Lord Gaurasundar. Lord Nitai's constant meditation is Lord Gaura. Lord Nitai's love for Lord Gaurarai and Lord Gaurahari's love for Sriman Avadhutcandra has no comparison. The nearest that one can go is to be reminded of the intense affection between Lord Ramchandra and Lord Lakshman. Lord Nitai spent blissful days in association of Srila Madhavendra Puri where both drowned in mellow bliss of pure Krishna Consciousness. Lord Gauracand sent His devotees to seek out Sri Avadhut Rai, but they couldn't find. Then the golden Lord Hari Himself came to the house of Srila Nandanacarya and the world was wonderstruck seeing the intense love between the two Lords -- Sri Sri Nityananda Ram and Sri Sri Gaurasundar Natabar. Lord Nityananda is the ocean bliss of Gaura Prem. Lord Nityananda is the sole reservoir of devotion to Lord Gaurahari. Lord Nityananda is the param ashraya tattva for those desiring the benediction moon rays of Lord Gauracand's supreme mercy. Lord Nityananda is the storehouse of Gaura nam and Gaura bhakti. Lord Nityananda is the provider of opportunity of devotional service to Lord Gauranga. Devotion to Lord Nityananda instantly pleases Lord Gaura. Lord Nityananda is always in bliss. Lord Nityananda is always chanting the names of Lord Gaura. Lord Nityananda is the personified audarya rasa tattva of Sri Gaurahari. Lord Nityananda is non different from Lord Gauranga exactly like Lord Balaram is non different from Lord Krishna. Yet Lord Nityananda Balaram is the servitor of Lord Gaura Krishna. Lord Nityananda is the SUPREME PERSONALITY OF GODHEAD. He is none but LORD BALARAM HIMSELF. He is Sankarshana. He is Ananta. He is Parmatma in everyone's heart. He is our sole sustainer. On Him rests millions of universes yet He is within each of those universes. Indeed He is between each atom and He is the constituent of all atoms. He roams Vraja like a prince of cowherd boys. He is the life soul of all His devotees. Under His influence as a maddened elephant intoxicated with Gaura nam, even village urchins are able to uproot big big trees and run around shouting the names of the Lord. He is the wonderful personality of Navadveep who is golden hued and large as mountain, He is the Supreme Lord, but to common men He begs with straw in His teeth to chant the name of Lord Gauranga. Gauranga nam is INCOMPLETE without Nitai nam. How can there be Gauranga without Nitai? Why should Gauranga Mahaprabhu honor any chanting of His name where Nitai is not present? Without Nitai there is no Gaura rasa. Nitai *IS* Gaura rasa. Nitai bine bhai Radha-Krishna paite nai. Who is Radha-Krishna? Radha-Krishna is Gaurasundar Bhagavan Sriman Mahaprabhu. Without approaching via Nitai where is the sambandha? Mahaprabhu Himself says that even if we are His devotee but we ignore Nitai then we are NOT His devotees! Lord Nityananda is the heart. He is the life factor of soul. Without Lord Nityananda there is NOTHING AT ALL. Where is life without Nitai? "Life" MEANS Nitai. Everything is JADA without Nitai. Without Nitaisundar's mercy where is Lord Gauranga for anyone? How can we even utter the word "Gauranga" if it is not sanctioned to appear SIMPLY BY THE SOLE SUPREME MERCY of Lord Nityananda. Lord Gauranga is the *PERSONAL PROPERTY* of Lord Nitai. GAURA NAM has only one place --- Lord Nitai's dancing tongue. Who else has the right to manifest Gaura nam anywhere? Gaura Nam's resting place is the tongue of Lord Nitai exactly like, Gaura's own residence is Nitai's heart. If Nitai wants, He may qualify us to repeat that name which He Himself pronounces blissfully all the time, the name which is HIS treasure. Gaura nam has become mellow bliss because it is pronounced from Nitai's heart & tongue. Indeed Gaura nam is Nitai Himself. The bliss of Gaura nam is Nitai. The purity of Gaura nam is Nitai. The taste in Gaura nam is Nitai. It is Nitai, Nitai, Nitai. He ****OWNS**** Gaura nam. He owns It because of His complete dedicated love for Sriman Gaurasundar. Lord Gaura eternally resides (He has accepted Him as His residence) in Nitai's bliss because of His intense love for Him. So if we are able to utter the name "Gaura" it is simply because Lord Nitai has sanctioned it. Lord Gauranga is the ORIGINAL SUPREME PERSONALITY OF GODHEAD -- THE ULTIMATE CAUSE OF ALL CAUSES. He is non-different from His name. Unlike the name "Krishna", Gaura nam does not see disqualifications. Why so? Because of Nitai. Nitai gives us Gaura Nam and Gaura Kripa. First there appears Nitai and on this basis, our tongue becomes Dham. On Dham, Lord Gaura can appear. Why should He otherwise appear on our filthy tongue, mind and consciousness which is otherwise rotten polluted with gross materialism. Lord Nitai buffers our contact with Him. Where ever Lord Nitai dances, Lord Gaura has to come. What is the difference between Gaura nam & Krishna nam? The difference is this extra Lord Nitai's overflowing bliss in His heart born out of His own Gaura prem. This is so because of His Supreme Absolute ability to understand the compassion of Lord Gaura. Do we have the shakti to understand Gaura? Do we have the shakti to approach Gaura? Are we qualified to receive His audarya? Why should He be audarya? He is audarya because of Nitai. Indeed NITAI *IS* HIS AUDARYA. There is no alternative to taking Nitai nam. Nitai nam is most blissful. More blissful than even Gaura nam. The core essence of Nitai nam is available only to very fortunate souls. Others may chant Gaura nam for millions of life and still not avail of the innermost bliss of Gaura's heart. But one who takes shelter of Nitai is sure to attain success million times more purer and billion times more faster. When I hear "Nitai" I go mad. I just talk like fools. People actually who are fool, they talk more. So I am kind of like that. So it is appropriate to ignore me. I like to blabber Nityananda nam like a crazy man, somehow I have this insane attachment. So these are all utterances of a crazy mental case. You may ignore what I say and your life will be happy. I am All mad. Bad. But who cares... haaaaa Nityananda.... Just shout out loud "NITYANANDA".... "NITAAAAAAIIII".... NOTE: If someone does not want to receive these mails kindly let me know and I will stop sending immediately. PLEASE WRITE TO ME DIRECTLY AND I WILL IMMEDIATELY UNSUBSCRIBE YOU. I will try to serve those Vaishnavas who allow me to engage in their service. I don't want to cause inconvenience or be a source of disturbance to anyone or be accused of spamming someone and end up paying a heavy fine or having my email ac suspended.
