On the auspicious occasion of Gaura Purnima, Satyanarayana Dasa Babaji presents a detailed commentary on the celebrated verse by Rupa Gosvami describing the appearance and purpose of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. Babaji explains why Chaitanya Mahaprabhu is not counted among the standard incarnations but is the very source of all incarnations. He came out of pure grace, not because anyone compelled him, to distribute what had never been given before — the highest form of devotion known as unnata ujjvala rasa, the conjugal love of Vrindavan kept secret for thousands of years. Drawing on Jiva Gosvami's commentary, Babaji explores why Krishna appeared with the mood and golden complexion of Srimati Radharani, the significance of Navadvipa as an island in the ocean of love, and why even the fallen and unqualified received this prema freely. Ideal for students of Gaudiya Vaishnavism, bhakti philosophy, and the teachings of the six Gosvamis of Vrindavan.
