Mandala
Srila Bhakti Rakshak Sridhar Dev Goswami Maharaj:
The gods, perfected beings, liberated sages, mystic yogis and dedicated devotees constantly sing the glories of the holy name of our sweet Lord Sri Krishna, who has descended again into this world as Lord Chaitanya. Immersed in the glow of the golden halo and the heart-felt mood of Srimate Radharani, Lord Sri Krishna has come back again in the golden form of Sri Krishna Chaitanya. Like a rain cloud showering nectar the mere shadow of Lord Krishna's holy names extinguishes the blazing forest fire of insatiable desires that chain the living souls within material life, a plane of existence where souls again and again experience the agonies of birth, death and rebirth. To save souls from suffering the Lord has reappeared in the world, coming to teach us how to approach him through chanting his holy names. Sri Krishna Chaitanya is the personified form of the ocean of consciousness of the flavour of nectar which is found in the holy names of Sri Krishna. I sing with joy the unending glories of my sweet Lord Sri Krishna Chaitanya, my golden Gaurasundara, the one and only divine abode of pure love.
Sri Sri Prema Dhama Deva Stotram, verse 1
