By the mercy of Lord Gauranga, one can realize Nitai Tattva and By the mercy of Lord Nityānanda, one can realize Gaur Tattva.
Although it’s not possible to completely explain the truth of Nitai, only Nitai himself can explain it. Because Nitai is Jagad Guru , and every Disciple should know that Sri Gurudev is a manifestation of Nitai.
Dayal Nitai is Everything for us and is of utmost importance for our Bhajan. He is Bliss Personified, who is not only absorbed in Supreme Bliss eternally, but is also drowning others in this Ocean of Transcendental Ananda.
In Nitai Tattva there are many Different Tattvas included. That is why it is said that “Atī Gūdha Nityānanda” – The Truth about Nitai is the Most Secret and Confidential, than any other Tattva.
Although Nitai Tattva is Unlimited. But still by his causeless mercy, Our Nitai (Sri Gurudev) is giving us a glimpse of Nitai Tattva through his Katha. Let us hear about the Six different Truths present inside Nitai.
Six Tattvas in Lord Nityānanda
- When RasaRāj Sri Krishna is totally absorbed in Love (Prema) for Srimati Radharani, the very special Ananda (Pleasure) that He gets (experience) in his Heart, That Ananda is inside our Lord Nityānanda.
- The Supreme Ananda (Pleasure) that Srimati Radharani (Mahabhav Swarupini) gets (feels) in her heart when She is completely absorbed in Sri Krishna’s Mood (Krsna Prema), That Ananda is within our Lord Nitai.
This Ananda which Srimati Radharani is relishing (experiencing) is very Special, but at the same time its so rare and difficult to comprehend that Swayam Bhagavan Sri Krishna himself was not able to understand and experience this. And this is one of the reason why he Appeared as Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu.
- The Very Special Blessings (Causeless Mercy) which Sri Krishna (Karunā Sindhū , Dīna Bandhū) Bestows upon someone, that very special mercy is inside Our Lord Nityānanda.
- When our (Apāra Karunāmayi, Dayāmayī, Kripāmayī) Srimati Radharani accepts a very new Sadhaka as her Dear Maidservant (Manjari, Kinkari, Palya Dāsi), That very special and the most supreme causeless mercy is also inside our Param Dayal Nitai.
heno Nitai bine Bhāi, Radha Krishna Pāite Nāi
Nitāir Karunā habe, braje Radha Krishna Pābe
One may think that how is Dayal Nitai able to bestow such a rare and special blessings Like (Apāra Karunāmayi) Srimati Radharani?
This will be cleared in the Sixth Tattva
- The one by whose plan all the pastimes of Krishna takes place and who arranges all the paraphernalia required in Pastimes for Krishna and his devotees, that Sankarshana is inside our Lord Nityānanda.
Even Krishna is not aware which Lila is going to take place. It’s all decided by Sankarshana. Which Lila, in which mood, at what place , with whom etc? All these is decided by Sankarshana. As per the Plan of Mula Sankarshana, Yogamaya prepares and arranges everything. All the paraphernalia such as Krishna’s Clothes, Ornaments, Bed, Stick, Rope, Etc and even all the Abodes (Dham) in spiritual world are the expansion of Sankarshana Tattva. All the other avatars expands through Sankarshana. For the purpose of Creation, Maintenance and Destruction of this material world he expands as Maha Vishnu, Garbhodakshayi Vishnu, Kshirodakshayi Vishnu and also Ananta Sesha . And this Sankarshana is inside our Lord Nityānanda.
- The Most Dear Younger Sister of Srimati Radharani, who Supports and Serves Sri Radha Govinda in their very Secret and Intimate Nikunja Pastimes, that Ananga Manjari Tattva is inside our Nitai.
Ananga Manjari, being the Younger Sister of Srimati Radharani is very Dear to her. They are different bodies but still they are non different from each other. Ananga Manjari possess all the qualities of Srimati Radharani. She is serving Yugal Kishor in their intimate amorous love affairs where even the intimate Sakhis like Lalita and Vishaka cannot (don’t) enter.
And she is the only one apart from Srimati Radharani, who can satisfy Sri Krishna completely. She is simultaneously a Manjari and can also act as a nayika Gopi (by the desire of Srimati Radharani), which makes her very special than the other Manjaris and Sakhis.
By contemplating on this sixth Tattva , we can realize the Second and fourth Tattva without any difficulty.
And Because of this major Six Tattvas, our Nitai is known as Akhanda-Guru-Tattva.
Sri Guru is always serving Sri Krishna and at the same time engaging others in the service of Krishna by first establishing their relationship with Krishna.
And we know how our Nitai is serving and giving pleasure to Krishna in all the five Primary Rasas (Shānta, Dāsya, Sakhya, Vātsalya & Madhura), so Nitai can teach us Sri Krishna’s Service better than anyone else. Because Nitai knows Krishna better than Krishna knows himself. That is why Nitai is Jagad Guru.
Even Lord Balarama used to get angry sometimes but our Nitai is never Angry (Akrodha Paramānanda Nityānanda Rāy), full of Compassion and is Prideless (Abhimāna Shunya Nitāi, Nagare bedāya).
May our Faith and Love increase more and more for our Nitai and we all become Nitai Pāgal (Mad in Love for Nitai). And for us our Sri Gurudev is Non Different from Nitai.
May by their Causeless mercy, we all can be a part of Srimati Radharani’s Family and serve her under the Guidance of Sri Ananga Manjari and our Sri Guru-Rupā-Sakhi.
Jai Nitāi!🙌 Love Nitāi!❤️
