SREE KRISHNA CHAITANYA'S TEACHINGS

SREE KRISHNA CHAITANYA'S TEACHINGS IN A

NUTSHELL

 

 

(1) The self-revealed Vedic truths descending from the Absolute person through the

preceptorial line of succession, are known as Amnaya. They declare that -

 

(2) Sree Krishna is the supreme principle without a second;

 

(3) He is always vested with infinite potency:

 

(4) He is the nectarine ocean of all Rasas;

 

(5) The jeeva souls are his marginal or intermediate

discrete parts;

 

(6) Marginally situated, the jeeva souls in their fallen state are liable to be enthralled by

prakriti or maya, the deluding external potency of the Lord;

 

(7) Lying in between the chit (internal spiritual) and achit (external deluding cosmic)

potencies of the Lord, the jeeva souls are freed from the shackles of the triple qualities of

maya by the loving service to the Supreme Lord Sree Krishna:

 

(8) All spiritual and mundane phenomena are simultaneously distinct and not-distinct

manifestations of the Supreme Lord Sree Krishna. This is known as, the

Achintya-Bheda- Abheda-prakash of the Lord. It is Achintya, i.e. inconceivable in as

much as the rational attributes of human beings are quite incapable of understanding or

even approaching the Divine sphere of the Lord except by His Mercy;

 

(9) Suddha bhakti or unalloyed devotion, which is the eternal function of all jeeva souls,

is the only means of attaining Divine Love, the summum bonum of human existence;

 

(10) Krishna Prema or Divine Love is alone the final desideratum of spiritual existence.

1.THE ABSOLUTE TRUTH -SRI KRISHNA

The Great Absolute should predominate over the crippled forms of infinitesimal absolutes

who may appear at the outset as illustrations of non-absolute If the synthetic process of

all isolated entities does not go one Undeviated Object of the Absolute, it would prove to

be a chaotic emporium of unassimilating difference ; so our mentalities require

rectification to arrange their order in a particular line. One of our friendly co-sharers

should come forward to explain before us the nature of the course that should be adopted

for our methodic comprehension of the irregularities in one line. This unparalleled mercy

of the One Friend and His associates is to regulate the disorderly conduct of the body and

the mind. The rhetorical principle of the predominating the predominating functions in

their bases of activities could give us the result of one of the four ingredients that follow

when we are relieved of the worldly deformed conceptions in the pure spontaneity of a

defined nature of eternal relationship that exists between the Absolute and the

significatory aspects of the internal parts of the Absolute.

 

Whenever the specification of the Predominator is Prominent, we necessarily find the

reciprocal predominated aspects, which may prove to be more than One, as distinguished

from the case of the Predominator. The Predominating Agent has a singular significance

over the multifarious predominated. This portion of the analysis of the Transcendental

Integer has become the most conspicuous explanation offered to mankind by any of the

guiding leaders to bring us towards the Transcendence. Earnest readers will no doubt find

this unique explanation offered by the writer in the line of instructions received by him

from the Transcendental Hero, Whose Career and accounts have been portrayed in this

book, of course, in a nutshell.

 

The peculiar feature noticed in men (includes male and female) apart from the lower

creation is this that the former can exchange thoughts and have the superiority of utilising

their experience through the recollections from history and acquired branches of

knowledge. They can show their felicitous mood in listening to Scriptures also. So a

comparative student can easily demarcate the line of the best and full part from transitory

experience of this world. The question of Eternity, Full Knowledge and Bliss cannot be

dealt by other agencies of life save man ; so man need not neglect the position of the

Absolute in the Ever-existence, in Full Knowledge void of all sort of ignorance and ills

that flesh is heir to, and Beatific Constancy of the Fountainhead. The solution of human

life should tend towards the approach of the Absolute Who is always courting us to offer

His help towards the fulfilment of the inadequate speciality we have in us. And in order

 

to gain, an approach we should require the guidance of an individual in whom we can

place our reliance, instead of being credulous with the strugglers of this world.

The Supreme Lord has left in this world a band of His followings who are always helpful

to mankind instead of deluding the intellectual to turn themselves idealists and evil-doers

with an apparent phase of seekers for their welfare. The author will no doubt be gratified

if any of the readers can see his way to Scrutinise the Subject of the Transcendence in

Whom we are vitally interested by sparing his valuable time to go through this book.
