Mādhurya-rasa Gauḍīya Prayojana

Mādhurya-rasa Gauḍīya Prayojana = Mādhurya-rasa is the goal of all Gauḍīyas.

“There are different types of devotees—those in Śānta-rasa, Dāsya-rasa, Sakhya-rasa, Vātsalya-rasa and Mādhurya-rasa. Although all the Rasas are on the transcendental platform, Mādhurya-rasa is the supreme transcendental mellow. 

Consequently it is concluded that the worship of devotees engaged in the Lord’s service in Mādhurya-rasa is the supreme spiritual activity. 

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and His followers mainly worship Lord Kṛṣṇa in Mādhurya-rasa. OTHER Vaiṣṇava Ācāryas recommended worship up to Vātsalya-rasa. 

Therefore Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī in his Vidagdha-mādhava (1.2) describes Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu’s cult as supreme:

anarpita-carīṁ cirāt karuṇayāvatīrṇaḥ kalau

samarpayitum unnatojjvala-rasāṁ sva-bhakti-śriyam

Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu appeared in this Age of Kali to exhibit the superexcellence of Mādhurya-rasa, a gift never previously bestowed by any Ācārya or incarnation. 

Consequently Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu is accepted as the most magnanimous incarnation. It is He only who distributed love of Kṛṣṇa while exhibiting the superexcellence of loving Kṛṣṇa in the conjugal rasa."

(Śrīla Prabhupāda - Śrī Caitanya-caritāmṛta Madhya-līlā 11.31)
