Nitāi Pada Kamala: The Spiritual Truths of Sri Nityānanda Prabhu

Sri Nityananda Prabhu is everything for us, our all in all. Why is that so? I will briefly elucidate this conclusion (siddhanta) here. Nityananda Tattva is very confidential, very deep and very complex. Nityananda is very mysterious, He is an avadhut, beyond all the rules and regulations and injunctions of shastra, yet he gets married and becomes a progenitor. He appears to be a contradictory, inconsistent personality. It is very difficult to fathom His nature and to reconcile His outlandish, seemingly irrational behaviour. Thus He is known as Nitai pagal, mad Nitai. He is transcendentally mad and anyone who tries to figure Him out intellectually will fail to do so. He is the embodiment of acintya bhedabheda tattva, one and different simultaneously, which is beyond human logic. Therefore Nityananda tattva can only be realised by the heart, by accepting the truth and the mood hidden in the heart of a pure, genuine Guru who can instil it in the heart of a sensitive, faithful disciple. Therefore Nityananda hides Himself and His tattva in a tricky way - only those who have unwavering faith in Him and in his agent, Sri Guru, can understand Him in truth. And ultimately we aspire to become as mad as Nitai or at least imbibe a drop of His mood of seva to His Gauranga. Nityananda/Balaram expands Himself in many ways and serves Radha-Krishna in all rasas and in all circumstances, spiritual and material.
