akrodha paramananda nityananda raya
abhimana-sunya nitai nagare bedaya [1]

"The anger-less, prideless, supremely joyful Nityananda Ray wanders throughout the towns."

adhama patita jiver dvare dvare giya
hari-nama maha-mantra dena bilaiya [2]

"Going from door to door to the homes of the lowly and fallen souls, He distributes the Hare Krsna mahamantra."

Akrodha paramananda: He is never angry, He has no ego. He always gives Himself to the service of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, and He is giving us to the service of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. He sacrifices His very own life for us, and He goes door to door distributing this Holy Name. I told yesterday also that Guru comes to rescue us from the illusory environment and to engage us in the service of the Lord. He does not come to you for your property, your wealth, your food or anything else; he has no attachment to that. An acharya is the one who always thinks about you, who always thinks how much you are suffering, that is why he comes to grab you from the illusory environment and to give you shelter at the lotus feet of Vaishnavs, Gurudev, Krishna, and Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

adhama patita jiver dvare dvare giya
hari-nama maha-mantra dena bilaiya [2]

"Going from door to door to the homes of the lowly and fallen souls, He distributes the Hare Krsna mahamantra."

Nityananda Prabhu distributes the Holy Names,

ভজ গৌরাঙ্গ, কহ গৌরাঙ্গ, লহ গৌরাঙ্গের নাম রে
যে জন গৌরাঙ্গ ভজে, সেই আমার প্রাণ রে

bhaja gauranga, kaha gauranga, laha gaurangera nama re
ye jana gauranga bhaje, sei amara prana re

"Worship Gauranga! Say Gauranga! Take Gauranga's Name! Those who worship Gauranga are My heart and soul!"

"Those who worship Gauranga are My life, My heart."

yare dekhe tare kahe dante trna dhari'
amare kiniya laha bhaja gaura hari [3]

"He says with a straw in His teeth to whoever He sees, 'I will be sold to you, please accept, serve Gaurahari!'"

Nityananda Prabhu (who is non-different from Gurudev) says, "You can buy Me! You cannot buy Me with money, with your property or wealth, but you can buy Me if you only worship Gauranga!" Krishna Himself says in Srimad Bhagavad-gita, "I do not want any opulent things or food, you can only give Me a drop of Ganges water and one Tulasi leaf. If you worship Me with Tulasi leaves and Ganges water every day, I will be sold to you—I will not be able to repay your debt; I will have to give Myself to you, then My debt will be repaid."

eta bali' nityananda bhume gadi yaya
sonara parvata yena dhulate lotaya [4]

"Saying this, Nityananda rolls on the ground like a golden mountain rolling in the dust."

Nityananda Prabhu comes with folded hands. He is so humble. Like a cow, He takes a straw in His mouth and comes to you with folded palms saying, "I am your servant." He falls at your lotus feet and prays to you, "Please chant the Holy Name, please chant Mahaprabhu's Name, then you can go to your real home!"

hena avatare yara rati na janmila
lochan bale sei papi ela ara gela [5]

"Lochan Das says of one who has not developed attachment to this Avatar, 'Such a sinner simply came and went.'

At the end, Lochan Das Thakur says, "You have no attachment to Nityananda Prabhu, to Gurudev! You are a sinner, you only come and go, come and go, how will you ever get relief? You do not understand how much you are suffering..."

Service and Karma
'Sometimes some service comes to you, and you are not satisfied with it, you want to do something else, but here is an example from Gurudev's times..'

 

Parama karuna
'O brothers! Serve! Serve Sri Sri Chaitanya-Nitai with firm faith! Leave aside worldly affairs, merge into this rasa, and chant aloud, 'Hari! Hari!''
পরম করুণ

You do not have to always be sitting beside your Guru or be always near—you can also serve your Guru from far, and that is good for you too.
