Nitai Pada Kamala (Srila Prabhupada video)




nitai-pada-kamala koti-candra-susitala
je chayaya jagat judaya
hena nitai bine bhai radha-krsna paite nai
drdha kari dhara nitaiyera paya

The lotus feet of Lord Nityananda are a shelter where one will get the soothing moonlight not only of one, but of millions of moons. If the world wants to have real peace, it should take shelter of Lord Nityananda. Unless one takes shelter under the shade of the lotus feet of Lord Nityananda, it will be very difficult for him to approach Radha-Krishna. If one actually wants to enter into the dancing party of Radha- Krishna, he must firmly catch hold of the lotus feet of Lord Nityananda.

se sambandha nahi jara brtha janma gela ta’ra
sei pasu bada duracara
nitai na balila mukhe majila samsara-sukhe
vidya-kule ki karibe tara

Anyone who has not established his relationship with Nityananda Prabhu is understood to have spoiled his valuable human birth. Such a human being is actually an uncontrollable animal. Because he never uttered the holy name of Nityananda, he has become merged into so-called material happiness. What can his useless education and family tradition do to help him?

ahankare matta haiya nitai pada pasariya
asatyere satya kari mani
nitaiyera karuna habe braje radha-krsna pa’be
dhara nitai-carana du’khani

Being maddened after false prestige and identification with the body, one is thinking, Oh, what is Nityananda? What can He do for me? I don’t care. The result is that he is accepting something false to be truth. If you actually want to approach the association of Radha-Krishna, you must first achieve the mercy of Lord Nityananda. When He is merciful toward you, then you will be able to approach Radha-Krishna. Therefore you should firmly grasp the lotus feet of Lord Nityananda.

nitaiyera carana satya tanhara sevaka nitya
nitai-pada sada kara asa
narottama bada duhkhi nitai more kara sukhi
rakha ranga caranera pasa

The lotus feet of Nityananda are not illusion; they are a fact. One who engages in the transcendental loving service of Nityananda is also transcendental. Always try to catch the lotus feet of Lord Nityananda. This Narottama dasa is very unhappy, therefore I am praying to Lord Nityananda to make me happy. My dear Lord, please keep me close to Your lotus feet.
