O Senhor Caitanya incumbiu cada um dos Seus associados com diferentes responsabilidades.
Ele atribuiu diferentes responsabilidades para Śrī Nityānanda Prabhu, Śrī Advaita Prabhu, Śrī Svarūpa Dāmodara, Śrī Rāmānanda Rāya, Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya e os 6 Gosvāmīs:
1 - Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī, nas suas obras, ficou incumbido de tratar extensivamente acerca de Rasa-tattva. No entanto, Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī não explicou como Rasa ocorre no serviço prático.
2 - Śrī Svarūpa Dāmodara foi quem ficou com a incumbência de mostrar como Rasa ocorre no serviço prático.
Por sua vez Śrī Svarūpa Dāmodara executou esta ordem através de Śrīla Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī e de Śrī Vakreśvara Gosvāmī.
Śrīla Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī mostra nas suas obras todos os serviços oferecidos por um Rāgānugā-sādhana Bhakta.
Já Śrī Vakreśvara Gosvāmī oferece um manual (Paddhati) que mostra passo a passo, metódica e sistematicamente todos os procedimentos de Rāgānugā-sādhana-bhakti. Em sucessão, Śrī Vakreśvara Gosvāmī passa este manual para Śrī Gopāla-guru Gosvāmī que passa para Śrīpāda Dhyānacandra Gosvāmī.
As obras de Śrīla Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī são:
* Śrī Vilāpa-kusumāñjali
* Śrī Vraja-vilāsa-stava
* Śrī Manaḥ-śikṣā
* Sva-niyama-daśakam
O Paddhati (manual) de Śrīpāda Dhyānacandra Gosvāmī é:
* Śrī Gaura-govindārcana-smaraṇa-paddhatiḥ
Rāgānugā-sādhana-bhakti implica o estudo profundo e absorção nestas obras juntamente com o cantar constante de Hare Kṛṣṇa (ainda que ocupado em actividades laborais e familiares).
Lord Caitanya entrusted each of His associates with different responsibilities.
He assigned different responsibilities to Śrī Nityānanda Prabhu, Śrī Advaita Prabhu, Śrī Svarūpa Dāmodara, Śrī Rāmānanda Rāya, Sārvabhauma Bhaṭṭācārya and the 6 Gosvāmīs:
1 - Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī, in his works, was charged with dealing extensively with Rasa-tattva. However, Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī did not explain how Rasa occurs in the practical service.
2 - Śrī Svarūpa Dāmodara was assigned to show how Rasa occurs in the practical service.
In turn Śrī Svarūpa Dāmodara executed this order through Śrīla Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī and Śrī Vakreśvara Gosvāmī.
Śrīla Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī shows in his works all the services offered by a Rāgānugā-sādhana Bhakta.
And Śrī Vakreśvara Gosvāmī offers a manual (Paddhati) that shows step by step, methodically and systematically all the procedures of Rāgānugā-sādhana-bhakti. In succession, Śrī Vakreśvara Gosvāmī passes this manual to Śrī Gopāla-guru Gosvāmī who passes to Śrīpāda Dhyānacandra Gosvāmī.
The works of Śrīla Raghunātha Dāsa Gosvāmī are:
* Śrī Vilāpa-kusumāñjali
* Śrī Vraja-vilāsa-stava
* Śrī Manaḥ-śikṣā
* Sva-niyama-daśakam
The Paddhati (manual) of Śrīpāda Dhyānacandra Gosvāmī is:
* Śrī Gaura-govindārcana-smaraṇa-paddhatiḥ
Rāgānugā-sādhana-bhakti implies the deep study and absorption in these works along with the constant chanting of Hare Kṛṣṇa (though engaged in work and family activities).
