Questions on today’s Swami call:

0:00 Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura wrote about how some devotees focused on Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu as the life-force of Sri Nityananda Prabhu, while others focused on him as the life-force of Sri Gadadhara Pandit. Is this related to what you talk about as the two windows of opportunity--sakhya and madhurya--in our sampradaya, one given by Sri Nityananda Prabhu's lineage and the other by lineages stemming from other associates of Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu such as the six Goswamis?

00:15:10 It is said that Sri Uddharana Datta Thakura established deities of Sri Sadbhuja Gauranga, Sri Nityananda Prabhu, and Sri Gadadhara Pandit. Would this be indicative of his priya-narma-sakhya bhava?

00:18:55 When gurus in our sampradaya are spoken of as having certain identities in the spiritual world, where does this information come from? Do you have personal insights into such identities?

00:39:21 What does Sri Jiva Goswami mean when says that one has to be identical with God in order to worship God?

00:47:40 Can our conceptions about the goal of our spiritual path get in the way of realizing it, as it cannot be captured by thought?
