Firm Faith Receives the Transcendental Treasure
“He who has accepted as everything the lotus feet of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Nityānanda Prabhu and Advaita Prabhu can attain this transcendental treasure.”
What the purport teaches
- One who accepts the lotus feet of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, Nityānanda Prabhu and Advaita Prabhu as everything can attain this transcendental treasure.
- Kṛṣṇa is obtainable for the faithful, but remains far away from those accustomed to argue. Firm faith allows one to understand these talks.
- Those outside the disciplic succession remain doubtful and engage in mental concoctions. Transcendental topics remain far away from mundane arguments.
