ÇRÉ NITYÄNANDA CARITÄMÅTA<br />

Licensed for Personal Use Only<br />

who wants to cross beyond the ocean of material existence and<br />

merge into the ocean of devotional service must worship the lotus<br />

feet of Nitäicandra. Çré Gaurasundara is the Lord of my Lord<br />

Nitäi. I always keep this firm conviction in my heart. Someone<br />

says Lord Nityänanda is Lord Balaräma, and someone says He is<br />

the dearest associate of Lord Caitanya. Some say He is the most<br />

influential personality, yet others are unable to know who He is.<br />

Whether Nityänanda is a renunciate or a learned devotee, let<br />

them say whatever they want. Let Lord Nityänanda be anyone<br />

to Lord Caitanya, still I keep His lotus feet within my heart.<br />

All glories to Lord Nityänanda, the life and soul of Çré Caitanya!<br />

Please allow me to take shelter of Your lotus feet. O Lord,<br />

let me sing the glories of Çré Gauräìga, following in Your footsteps.<br />

Let me also remain Your eternal servant, birth after birth.<br />

My only wish is to have the darçana of Lord Caitanya. Anyone<br />

who reads or hears about Your pastimes will receive the treasure<br />

of kåñëa-prema. They say that Your devotees are fully dependent<br />

upon You, and that You are the supremely independent<br />

Lord. There is no end to the Your pastimes. The Vedas describe<br />

them as being manifest and unmanifest.<br />

Accepting Çré Kåñëa Caitanya and Nityänanda Prabhu as<br />

my life and soul, I, Våndävana däsa, sing the glories of Their<br />

lotus feet.<br />

END OF ANTYA LILA<br />

Thus ends the book Çré Nityänanda-caritämåta, compiled<br />
