Translation:<br />
1) The dust of the lotus feet of pure devotees, enthusiatic devotional service, and service to the pure devotees<br />
of the highest order are the roots of the creeper of devotion.<br />
2) The holy days like Ekädaçé and Janmäñöami are the mother of devotion for those devotees who respect<br />
them. Let the holy places of Kåñëa’s pastimes be my places of worship, and bless me.<br />
3) May I always visit all the holy places associated with the lélä of Lord Caitanya and His devotees.<br />
4) When I hear the sound of the mådaìga in my heart I always desire to join in kértana; and when I hear<br />
the bonafide songs decribing Lord Caitanya’s pastimes, my heart dances in ecstasy.<br />
5) Whenever I see the transcendental çré-vigrahas of Rädhä-Kåñëa I am in bliss, for by taking Their<br />
Lordships’ prasäda we can conquer over the material elements.<br />
6) One day while performing devotional practices, I saw my house transformed into Goloka Våndävana. When<br />
I take the caraëämåta of the Deity, I see the holy Ganges waters that come from the feet of Lord Viñëu, and<br />
my bliss knows no bounds.<br />
7) By seeing the tulasé tree my heart feels joy and Lord Mädhava (Kåñëa) is also satisfied. When I eat the<br />
prasäda favored by Lord Caitanya it is a new life’s experience. (Lord Caitanya was very fond of a green<br />
vegetable preparation called sak, and there is another song in this book that tells of the amazing effects of this<br />
type of prasäda.)<br />
8) Bhaktivinoda concludes by saying: "Whosoever attains the stage of enthusiasm for these devotional<br />
practices will be supremely blissful wherever he may be."
