Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu adveio para propagar o cantar do Mahā-mantra Hare Kṛṣṇa e propagar Rāga-mārga Bhakti.
Seguidores de Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu, como bons seguidores, propagam ambos. Nem só um e nem só o outro. Caso contrário sua propagação é incompleta.
1 - Razão principal (Avatāra Mūla Kāraṇa) do advento de Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu:
CC Ādi 4.14,15,16
avatāra mūla kāraṇa ... rāga-mārga bhakti loke karite pracāraṇa
A razão principal (Mūla Kāraṇa) de Śrī Kṛṣṇa ter descendido (Avatāra) como Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu é propagar Rāgānugā-bhakti.
Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu mostrou como praticar Rāga-mārga Bhakti:
CC Ādi 17.277
gopī-bhāva yāte prabhu dhariyāche ekānta
vrajendra-nandane māne āpanāra kānta
Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu aceitou de forma exclusiva (Ekānta) o humor das Gopīs, que aceitam Vrajendranandana, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, como seu amante.
Neste verso e palavra Ekānta é muito importante. Gopī-bhāva é o humor exclusivo aceito por Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
Portanto:
CC Madhya 8.228
ataeva gopī-bhāva kari aṅgīkāra
rātri-dina cinte rādhā-kṛṣṇera vihāra
Sādhakas Gauḍīyā devem aceitar Gopī-bhāva e, durante todo dia e noite, pensar nos passatempos de Rādhā Kṛṣṇa.
2 - Razão complementar do advento de Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu:
CC Ādi 3.40
kali-yuge yuga-dharma - nāmera pracāra
tathi lāgi 'pīta-varṇa caitanyāvatāra
Para propagar o Santo Nome, que é o Yuga Dharma para Kali-yuga, Śrī Kṛṣṇa aceitou uma forma dourada e descendeu como Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu came to propagate the chanting of the Hare Kṛṣṇa Mahā-mantra and propagate Rāga-mārga Bhakti.
Followers of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu, as good followers, propagate both. Not just one and not the other. Otherwise their propagation is incomplete.
1 - Main reason (Avatāra Mūla Kāraṇa) of the advent of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu:
CC Ādi 4.14,15.16
avatāra mūla kāraṇa ... rāga-mārga bhakti loke karite pracāraṇa
The main reason (Mūla Kāraṇa) of Śrī Kṛṣṇa to have descended (Avatāra) as Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu is to propagate Rāgānugā-bhakti.
Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu showed how to practice Rāga-mārga Bhakti:
CC Ādi 17.277
gopī-bhāva yāte prabhu dhariyāche ekānta
vrajendra-nandane māne āpanāra kānta
Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu exclusively (Ekānta) accepted the mood of the gopīs, who accept Vrajendranandana, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, as their lover.
In this verse the word Ekānta is very important. Gopī-bhāva is the exclusive mood accepted by Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
Therefore:
CC Madhya 8,228
ataeva gopī-bhāva kari aṅgīkāra
rātri-dina cinte rādhā-kṛṣṇera vihāra
Gauḍīyā Sādhakas should accept Gopī-bhāva, and day and night think about Rādhā Kṛṣṇa's pastimes.
2 - Complementary reason for the advent of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu:
CC Ādi 3.40
kali-yuge yuga-dharma - nāmera pracāra
tathi lāgi 'pīta-varṇa caitanyāvatāra
To propagate the Holy Name, which is the Yuga Dharma for Kali-yuga, Śrī Kṛṣṇa has taken a golden complexion and descended as Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
