Partese do princpio que, em essncia, somos partes integrantes de Deus,
constitudos de conhecimento, eternidade e bem-aventurana, mas que, ao nascermos
neste mundo esquecemos disso e nos envolvemos na falsa concepo de eu e meu. Essailuso (Maya) que seria o mal da humanidade e portanto precisa ser reconhecida, aceitae transformada.
Este profundo processo de auto-conhecimento e despertar da conscincia se desenvolve
atravs de elementos que variam entre grupos de estudo e cursos intensivos que incluem
vivncias e metodologias tericas.
Estes elementos se apiam nos trs principais pilares que sustentam o Caminho:
Realizao do Conhecimento (Vijnana), Servio em devoo (Bhakti) e Adorao
(Archana). Este Caminho conduz o buscador do estado de separao para a unio, da
sombra para a luz, da iluso para a verdade.
O Caminho do Corao no psicoterapia, porm, reconhece que uma conscientizao
profunda poder levar espiritualidade e que um trabalho espiritual autntico abordar
a esfera mais ntima do ser humano. Portanto, traduz uma abordagem ampla e um eloentre a cincia e a espiritualidade.

Further Purports:
Matsya Purport: The first avatara signifies the restoration of true knowledge (Vedas), recoveredfrom the deluge of egoism, which has to be destroyed in the process.
Kurma Purport: The incarnation of God in the Tortoise form during the churning of the Ocean,signifies that the churning of the ocean of experience with the churn of knowledge, towards the
Absolute can rest only on the immovable, all-sufficient, all-sustaining basis of self-evident truth,symbolized by the Tortoise avatara.
Varha Purport: The Boar avatara is identified with sacrifice both in the Vishnupurana andBhagavata. As sacrifice (of worldly affairs) is essential for the stability of mind for contemplation
on God, it is symbolized by the Boar form of the Lord.
Nrsmha Purport: This avatara illustrates that a true devotee is fearless (as Prahlda) and Godcomes to his rescue.
Vmana Purport: The Dwarf avatara shows that valour (as exemplified by King Bali) can find itsfulfilment only in complete surrender.
Parasurma Purport: When the rulers, endowed with power for protection of the subjects, hadhowever degenerated into an oppressive tyranny, it had to be crushed ruthlessly. This is
8/4/2019 CANCOES-VAISHNAVAS
23/146
illustrated by the Parasurama avatara.
Rma Purport: The Sri Rma avatara is an ideal demonstration of how a man can rise todivinity, by unswerving adherence to dharma, in all its details.
Kalki Purport: The yet to be avatara is Kalki, the mighty warrior, born in a pious family, to ridthe world of the oppression of its unrighteous rulers.
Comment
The Dasavatara Stotra is a Hymn in salutation to the ten incarnations of Lord Maha Vishnu. TheStotra forms the first section of Gita Govinda, the masterpiece work of Sri Jayadeva. He was acourt poet of King Lakshmanasena, who ruled Bengal during the 12th Century. Sri Jayadeva wasa great devotee of Lord Krishna and a mystic. His mastery of Sanskrit language was matched byhis extraordinary talent in music and dancing.
The theme of Gita Govindam is the love of Radha Devi and Sri Krishna, symbolizing the longingand striving of the individual, for communion with God, culminating in their blissful union.
Incarnation is a special manifestation of God for the protection of the good, the destruction ofevil and the establishment of Dharma. Holy scriptures, such as Bhagavata Purana enumerate 24incarnations, including Kapila, the great sage and founder of the Sankhya school of philosophy,and Rishabha, whom the Jains revere as their first prophet.
Worship of the incarnation and contemplation of His attributes are for most men and womenthe best preparation for unitive knowledge of Godhead.
Sri Jayadeva in the Dasavatara Stotra enumerates the ten incarnations of the Lord. Sri KrishnaChaitanya, the great Vaishnavite saint took inspiration from his songs.
In the Sri Krishna temple of Guruvayoor in Kerala, Jayadeva's songs are sung daily in Carnatic
Music ragas. In Nepal, they are sung during the Spring festivals. Guru Arjun Singh included twoof Jayadeva's songs in Adi Guru Grantha, the holy scripture of the Sikhs.

PURPORTby His Divine Grace
A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupda
This song of Srila Narottama Dasa Thakura is very famous among devotees in Bengal andOrissa. When Lord Caitanya returned from Gaya, where He was initiated by Sri Isvara Puri, He
was completely transformed into a God-intoxicated personality whom His students of grammarhad never known before. Instead of teaching ordinary grammar studies, Lord Caitanyaexplained every sentence in such a way that every Sanskrit word and every letter was understoodto indicate Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. This form of grammar was later ondeveloped by Srila Jiva Gosva mi in a book called Hari-namamrta-vyakarana, the Grammar ofthe Nectar and Name of Sri Hari. But Lord Caitanya's students thought that their teacher had
become mad, and they rubbed His head with Visnu oil, an oil that cools the brain. Finally theyasked Him, "You say that everything means Krsna and we should ultimately always be chantingthe names of Krsna. Just how should we do this?" Then Lord Caitanya began to sing the namesof Krsna and clap His hands, and He began His nama-sankirtana movement. The names He
sang are the first two lines of this song, and Narottama Das Thakura and others have placedthese names in the beginning of their writings to immortalize these events in the memory ofeveryone.
Narottama Dasa Thakura chants the names of Lord Caitanya, Nityananda, Sri Advaita and Sita(Lord Advaita's consort). Since Lord Hari, the spiritual matter and the Srimad Bhagavad-gitaare all on the transcendental platform, they are given the same respect. Then Srila NarottamaDasa chants the names of the six Gosvamis. "I offer my obeisances at their feet," he sings,"which destroy sufferings accumulated over many long years. I am the servant of these sixGosvamis, and the dust of their lotus feet is my five kinds of foodstuffs. To solve their lotus feetand keep the association of devotees is my only business, birth after birth." When the sixGosvamis were staying at Vrndavana, they revealed the eternal transcendental pastimes of SriSri Radha-Krsna. Before Lord Caitanya the exact location of the places of Lord Krsna's pasti-mes we're not known, and therefore Lord Caitanya instructed the Gosvamis to uncover the holy
places and construct temples. The temple of Sri Radha-Damodara is situated near the locationof the rasa dance, and Srila Rupa Gosvami and the other Gosvamis used to gather there anddiscuss the topics of their literatures, which scientifically explained the super-excellent pastimesof Sri-Sri Radha-Krsna. Narottama Dasa Thakura says, "In great ecstasy shout the name of Hariand serve the real transcendental master and devotees." He concludes by saying, "With all hopesin the lotus feet of my guru and the holy Vaisnavas. Narottama Dasa sings the sankirtana ofLord Hari:- Hare Krsna, Hare Krsna, Krsna-Krsna, Hare Hare, Hare Rama, Hare Rama, RamaRama, Hare Hare."

What assurance of real happiness is there in all of one's wealth, youthfulness, sons, and familymembers? This life is tottering like a drop of water on a lotus petal; therefore you should alwaysserve and worship the divine feet of Lord Hari.

This song was sung by Narottama Dasa Thhakura, a great devotee and acarya in the GaudiyaVaisnava-sampradaya, the disciplic succession coming down from Lord Caitanya. NarottamaDasa Thakura has written many songs, which are recognized as authoritative by all Vaisnavas.He has sung these songs in simple Bengali language, but the purport--the deep meaning of his
songs--is very significant.
8/4/2019 CANCOES-VAISHNAVAS
54/146
In this song he says, 'gauranga' bolite habe pulaka sarira. One has attained the perfection ofchanting when as soon as he chants the name of Lord Gauranga, who initiated this sankirtana
movement, at once there is shivering in his body. This is not to be imitated, but Narottama dasaThakura is asking, "When will that opportune moment come to us when there will be shivering
of the body as soon as we chant Lord Gauranga's name?'' And after the shivering--'hari hari'bolite nayane ba'be nira: "While chanting Hare Krsna, there will be tears in the eyes.'
Then he says, ara kabe nitai-cander koruna hoibe. We are all asking about the mercy of LordNityananda. Nityananda is supposed to be the original spiritual master, so we have to approachGauranga, Lord Caitanya, through the mercy of Lord Nityananda. What is the symptom of aperson who has achieved the causeless mercy of Lord Nityananda? Narottama Dasa Thakura
says that the symptom of one who has actually received the causeless mercy of Lord Nityanandais that he has no more material desire. Ara kabe nitai-cander koruna hoibe samsara-basana
mora kabe tuccha ha'be. Samsara-basana- means "desire for material enjoyment," andNarottama Dasa wonders when it will become very insignificant. Of course, as long as we have
bodies we have to accept so many material things, but not in the spirit of enjoyment, but only tokeep body and soul together.
As long as the mind is too much absorbed in materialistic thought, one cannot enter into thekingdom of Vrndavana. But Narottama Dasa Thakura says, visaya chariya kabe suddha ha'bemana kabe hama herabo sri-brndabana. "When the mind is completely purified, being freed
from material anxieties and desires, then I shall be able to understand Vrndavana and theconjugal love of Radha and Krsna, and then my spiritual life will be successful.
Narottama Dasa says further, rupa-raghunata-pade hoibe akuti: "When shall I be very mucheager to study the books left by the six Gosvamis?" Akuti means "eagerness." Because RupaGosvami is the father of devotional service, he has written a book called Bhakti-rasamrta-
sindhu, in which there are nice directions on devotional service. These topics are also dealt within Caitanya- caritamrta and other books, and we have given the summary of those directions inour book Teachings of Lord Caitanya. One has to learn of the conjugal loving affairs of Radha-Krsna through the teachings of these six Gosvamis. Narottama Dasa Thakura directs us not to
try to understand the conjugal love of Radha-Krsna by our own endeavor. We should try tounderstand this yugala-piriti, conjugal love, under the direction of the Gosvamis.

2. My dear brother, I request that you just worship Lord Caitanya and Nityanandawith firm conviction and faith. If one wants to be Krsna conscious by this process,

4. But Locana dasa regrets that I am entrapped by sense gratification.Since I have no attraction for the lotus feet of Lord Caitanya and Lord Nityananda,
then Yamaraja, the superintendent of death, is punishing meby not allowing me to be attracted by this movement.
PURPORT
by His Divine Grace
A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupda
This is a song by Locana Dasa Thakura. Pahu means "Lord," and dui jana means "two." LocanaDasa Thakura declares that the two Lords, Nitai-Gauracandra--Lord Nitai and Lord Caitanya--are very merciful (parama koruna). Saba avatara-sara siromani. Avatara means "incarnation,"
and saba means "all." They are the essence of all incarnations. The specific significance of theseincarnations is that prosecuting Their way of self-realization is simply joyful (kevala ananda-kanda), for They introduced chanting and dancing. There are many incarnations, like Lord
Rama and even Krsna, who taught Bhagavad-gita, which requires knowledge andunderstanding. But Lord Caitanya and Nityananda in- troduced a process that is simply joyful--simply chant and dance. Therefore, Locana Dasa requests everyone, bhajo bhajo bhai, caitanya-nitai: "My dear brother, I request that you just worship Lord Caitanya and Nityananda with firm
conviction and faith." Don't think that this chanting and dancing will not lead to the desiredgoal. It will. It is the assurance of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu that one will get all perfection by
this process. Therefore one must chant with firm faith and conviction (biswasa kori').
But what is the process? The process is visayo chariya, se rase majiya. If one wants to be Krsnaconscious by this process, one has to give up his engagement in sense gratification. That is theonly restriction. If one gives up sense gratification, it is sure that he will reach the desired goal.

Mukhe bolo hari hari: one simply has to chant, "Hare Krsna! Hari Hari!" without any motive ofsense gratification.
Dekho ore bhai, tri-bhuvane nai. Locana Dasa Thakura says, "My dear brother, you just try andexamine this. Within the three worlds there is no one like Lord Caitanya or Lord Nityananda,
because Their merciful qualities are so great that They make even birds and beasts cry, what tospeak of human beings." Actually, when Lord Caitanya passed through the forest known as
Jharikhanda, the tigers, elephants, snakes, deer, and all other animals joined Him in chantingHare Krsa: It is so nice that anyone can join. Even the animals can join, what to speak of humanbeings. Of course, it is not possible for ordinary men to induce animals to chant, but if Caitanya
Mahaprabhu could inspire animals to chant, at least we can encourage human beings to adoptthis path of Hare Krsna mantra chanting. It is so nice that even the most stonehearted man will
be melted. Pasana means "stone." It is so nice that even stone will melt.
But Locana Dasa Thakura regrets that he is entrapped by sense gratification. He addresseshimself, "My dear mind, you are entrapped in this sense gratification process, and you have no
attraction for chanting Hare Krsna. Since you have no attraction for the lotus feet of LordCaitanya and Lord Nityananda, what can I say? I can simply think of my misfortune. Yamaraja,
the superintendent of death, is punishing me by not allowing me to be attracted by thismovement."

(found in the Padma Purna of Krsna Dvaipyana Vysa, spoken by Satyavrata Muni in aconversation with Nrada Muni and Saunaka Rsi)
"In the month of Krtika one should worship Lord Dmodara and daily recite the prayer knownas Dmodarshthaka, which has been spoken by the sage Satyavrata and which attracts Lord
Dmodara." (S'r Hari-bhakti-vilsa 2.16.198)
TRANSLATION
(1)
To the Supreme Lord, whose form is the embodiment of eternal existence, knowledge, and bliss,whose shark-shaped earrings are swinging to and fro, who is beautifully shining in the divinerealm of Gokula, who I (due to the offense of breaking the pot of yogurt that His mother waschurning into butter and then stealing the butter that was kept hanging from a swing) is quicklyrunning from the wooden grinding mortar in fear of mother Yasoda, but who has been caughtfrom behind by her who ran after Him with greater speed--to that Supreme Lord, Sri Damodara,I offer my humble obeisances.
(2)
(Seeing the whipping stick in His mother's hand,) He is crying and rubbing His eyes again andagain with His two lotus hands. His eyes are filled with fear, and the necklace of pearls around
His neck, which is marked with three lines like a conch shell, is shaking because of His quickbreathing due to crying. To this Supreme Lord, Sri Damodara, whose belly is bound not withropes but with His mother's pure love, I offer my humble obeisances.
(3)
By such childhood pastimes as this He is drowning the inhabitants of Gokula in pools of ecstasy,and is revealing to those devotees who are absorbed in knowledge of His supreme majesty andopulence that He is only conquered by devotees whose pure love is imbues with intimacy and isfree from all conceptions of awe and reverence. With great love I again offer my obeisances toLord Damodara hundreds and hundreds of times.

0 Lord, although You are able to give all kinds of benedictions, I do not pray to You for the boonof impersonal liberation, nor the highest liberation of eternal life in Vaikuntha, nor any other
boon (which may be obtained by executing the nine processes of bhakti). O Lord, I simply wishthat this form of Yours as Bala Gopala in Vrndavana may ever be manifest in my heart, for whatis the use to me of any other boon besides this?

O Lord, Your lotus face, which is encircled
