Radhanath Swami on Significance of the tears of devotees

“Our acaryas teach us, that the incessant tears of Saci Devi, the incessant tears of Vishnupriya the tears of all the devotees in Navadvipa, those tears of separation by the Lord’s own will, were meant to wash away the sins, wash away the darkness of ignorance of the whole world, so that Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu could freely travel and reach even the most difficult people and give then Krishna Prema through Krishna Nama.” 

Lord Caitanya told Lord Nityananda Prabhu that when the sun enters the northern direction I’ll go to Kantaka Nagar and take sannyasa from Keshav Bharati Maharaj. Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu understood that His acceptance of sannyasa was going to cause such devastation to His devotees that for the next few days He continuously performed the most blissful kirtan that everyone forgot that He was going to take sannyasa.

  1. The tears of the great devotees help us to try and follow in their footsteps to purify ourselves and develop love for God.

  2. ………were meant to wash away the sins, wash away the darkness of ignorance of the whole world. Divine compassion!!!

    1. Compassion for other is the highest level of spirituality as depicted by Mother Saci and Mother Vishnupriya

  3. Amazing…this is the mercy of the devotees…and what sacrifice did Saci Mata and VishnuPriya devi showed for the benefit of the world…

  4. Love and Tears of devotees teach us during our advancement what is difference between real compassion and hardheartedness.

  5. It is heart touching when we hear the pastime of Lord Caitanya accepting sanyas. When we hear from Radhanath Swami it is like new perspective of the same pastime emerges with a new understanding.

  6. Description of tears of Sacimata , mother Visnupriya and all devotees in Navadvipa done by HH Radhanath Swami Maharaj is so very intense and heart touching ! Maharaj perfectly puts picture in front of our eyes that of scene in Navadvipa of the time when Lord Chaitanya Mahaprabhu about to take sannyasa ! Its very heart touching ! Thank You Maharaj !

    1. Radhanath Swami Maharaj really goes into the pastimes. Hearer also get deeply touched.

  7. H.H. Radhanath Swami has the capability to suck the hearer into the pastime thanks to his own absorption in Lord. More important is the change of heart that comes about after that to thousands of his followers. This can only be possible by his living example.

    H.H.Radhanath Swami is truly a saint who walks his talk
