TTS Srimad-Bhagavatam 00.00.08 - Introduction - His Mission - Duration: 5:41.Lord Caitanya not only preached the Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam but propagated the teachings of the Bhagavad-gītā
as well in the most practical way.
In the Bhagavad-gītā Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa is depicted as the Absolute Personality of Godhead, and
His last teachings in that great book of transcendental knowledge instruct that one should give up
all the modes of religious activities and accept Him (Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa) as the only worshipable
Lord.
The Lord then assured that all His devotees would be protected from all sorts of sinful
acts and that for them there would be no cause for anxiety.
Unfortunately, despite Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa's direct order and the teachings of the Bhagavad-gītā,
less intelligent people misunderstand Him to be nothing but a great historical personality,
and thus they cannot accept Him as the original Personality of Godhead.
Such men with a poor fund of knowledge are misled by many nondevotees.
Thus the teachings of the Bhagavad-gītā were misinterpreted even by great scholars.
After the disappearance of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa there were hundreds of commentaries on the
Bhagavad-gītā by many erudite scholars, and almost every one of them was motivated by
self-interest.
Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu is the selfsame Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa.
This time, however, He appeared as a great devotee of the Lord in order to preach to
the people in general, as well as to religionists and philosophers, about the transcendental
position of Śrī Kṛṣṇa, the primeval Lord and the cause of all causes.
The essence of His preaching is that Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, who appeared at Vrajabhūmi (Vṛndāvana)
as the son of the King of Vraja (Nanda Mahārāja), is the Supreme Personality of Godhead and
is therefore worshipable by all.
Vṛndāvana-dhāma is nondifferent from the Lord because the name, fame, form and place where
the Lord manifests Himself are all identical with the Lord as absolute knowledge.
Therefore Vṛndāvana-dhāma is as worshipable as the Lord.
The highest form of transcendental worship of the Lord was exhibited by the damsels of
Vrajabhūmi in the form of pure affection for the Lord, and Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu
recommends this process as the most excellent mode of worship.
He accepts the Śrīmad-Bhāgavata Purāṇa as the spotless literature for understanding
the Lord, and He preaches that the ultimate goal of life for all human beings is to attain
the stage of prema, or love of God.
Many devotees of Lord Caitanya like Śrīla Vṛndāvana dāsa Ṭhākura, Śrī Locana dāsa Ṭhākura,
Śrīla Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja Gosvāmī, Śrī Kavikarṇapūra, Śrī Prabodhānanda Sarasvatī, Śrī Rūpa Gosvāmī,
Śrī Sanātana Gosvāmī, Śrī Raghunātha Bhaṭṭa Gosvāmī, Śrī Jīva Gosvāmī, Śrī Gopāla Bhaṭṭa
Gosvāmī, Śrī Raghunātha dāsa Gosvāmī and in this latter age within two hundred years,
Śrī Viśvanātha Cakravartī, Śrī Baladeva Vidyābhūṣaṇa, Śrī Śyāmānanda Gosvāmī, Śrī Narottama dāsa
Ṭhākura, Śrī Bhaktivinoda Ṭhākura and at last Śrī Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī Ṭhākura (our
spiritual master) and many other great and renowned scholars and devotees of the Lord
have prepared voluminous books and literatures on the life and precepts of the Lord.
Such literatures are all based on the śāstras like the Vedas, Purāṇas, Upaniṣads, Rāmāyaṇa,
Mahābhārata and other histories and authentic literatures approved by the recognized ācāryas.
They are unique in composition and unrivaled in presentation, and they are full of transcendental
knowledge.
Unfortunately the people of the world are still ignorant of them, but when these literatures,
which are mostly in Sanskrit and Bengali, come to light the world and when they are
presented before thinking people, then India's glory and the message of love will overflood
this morbid world, which is vainly searching after peace and prosperity by various illusory
methods not approved by the ācāryas in the chain of disciplic succession.
The readers of this small description of the life and precepts of Lord Caitanya will profit
much to go through the books of Śrīla Vṛndāvana dāsa Ṭhākura (Śrī Caitanya-bhāgavata) and
Śrīla Kṛṣṇadāsa Kavirāja Gosvāmī (Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta).
The early life of the Lord is most fascinatingly expressed by the author of Caitanya-bhāgavata,
and as far as the teachings are concerned, they are more vividly explained in the Caitanya-caritāmṛta.
Now they are available to the English-speaking public in our Teachings of Lord Caitanya.
The Lord's early life was recorded by one of His chief devotees and contemporaries,
namely Śrīla Murāri Gupta, a medical practitioner of that time, and the latter part of the life
of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu was recorded by His private secretary Śrī Dāmodara Gosvāmī,
or Śrīla Svarūpa Dāmodara, who was practically a constant companion of the Lord at Purī.
These two devotees recorded practically all the incidents of the Lord's activities, and
later on all the books dealing with the Lord, which are above mentioned, were composed on
the basis of kaḍacās (notebooks) by Śrīla Dāmodara Gosvāmī and Murāri Gupta.
