Nama Article-111

[Guest guest]

Dear All,

 

Although Lord Chaitanya was widely renowned as a

scholar in his youth, he left only eight verses,

called Sikshashtaka. These eight verses clearly reveal

his mission and precepts. These supremely valuable

prayers are translated herein.

 

 

 

1. Glory to the Sri Krishna Sankirtana, which

cleanses the heart of all the dust accumulated for

years and extinguishes the fire of conditional life,

of repeated birth and death. This Sankirtana movement

is the prime benediction for humanity at large because

it spreads the rays of the benediction moon. It is the

life of all transcendental knowledge. It increases the

ocean of transcendental bliss, and it enables us to

fully taste the nectar for which we are always

anxious.

 

 

 

2. O my Lord, Your holy name alone can render all

benediction to living beings, and thus You have

hundreds and millions of names like Krishna and

Govinda. In these transcendental names You have

invested all Your transcendental energies. There are

not even hard and fast rules for chanting these names.

O my Lord, out of kindness You enable us to easily

approach You by Your holy names, but I am so

unfortunate that I have no attraction for them.

 

 

 

3. One should chant the holy name of the Lord in a

humble state of mind, thinking oneself lower than the

straw in the street; one should be more tolerant than

a tree, devoid of all sense of false prestige and

should be ready to offer all respect to others. In

such a state of mind one can chant the holy name of

the Lord constantly.

 

 

 

4. O Almighty Lord, I have no desire to accumulate

wealth, nor do I desire beautiful women, nor do I want

any number of followers. I only want Your causeless

devotional service birth after birth.

 

 

 

5. O son of Maharaja Nanda ( Krishna ), I am Your

eternal servitor, yet somehow or other I have fallen

into the ocean of birth and death. Please pick me up

from this ocean of death and place me as one of the

atoms at Your lotus feet.

 

 

 

6. O my Lord, when will my eyes be decorated with

tears of love flowing constantly when I chant Your

holy name? When will my voice choke up, and when will

the hairs of my body stand on end at the recitation of

Your name?

 

 

 

7. O Govinda! Feeling Your separation, I am

considering a moment to be like twelve years or more.

Tears are flowing from my eyes like torrents of rain,

and I am feeling all vacant in the world in Your

absence.

 

 

 

8. I know no one but Krishna as my Lord, and He

shall remain so even if He handles me roughly or makes

me brokenhearted by not being present before me. He is

completely free to do anything and everything, for He

is always my worshipful Lord unconditionally.
