Sri Krishna's instructions to Sanatan
Sanatan Şiskşa - Sri Krshna Caitanya's instructions to Sanatan Goswami
Vers 1-6
vande śrī-kṛṣṇa-caitanya- devaḿ taḿ karuṇārṇavam
kalāv apy ati-gūḍheyaḿ bhaktir yena prakāśitā
I offer respectful obeisances unto Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya,
who is an ocean of mercy in this age of Kali
who manifested the confidential divine devotional service – bhakti.
jaya jaya śrī-kṛṣṇa-caitanya nityānanda
jayādvaita-candra jaya gaura-bhakta-vṛnda
All glories to Krişna-Cetanya, Nityananda, Adveta and the devotees’ group of Gora (the Golden).
eita kahiluń sambandha-tattvera vicāra
veda-śāstre upadeśe, kṛṣṇa — eka sāra
(Śrī Caitanya said) I have thus described the analysis (vicāra) of the philosophical principle (tattva) regarding the relations (sambandha) (with Krişna)
All the Vedic literature instructs that Krişna is the only (eka) essence (sāra).
ebe kahi, śuna, abhidheya-lakṣaṇa
yāhā haite pāi — kṛṣṇa, kṛṣṇa-prema-dhana
Now I will talk about the means (abhidheya) whose simptom (lakṣaṇa)
is to get Krişna and the love treasure for Krişna
kṛṣṇa-bhakti abhidheya, sarva-śāstre kaya
ataeva muni-gaṇa kariyāche niścaya
All revealed writings say that divine devotional service Krişna is the mean.
therefore all wise persons are firmly fixed (in bhakti).
śrutir mātā pṛṣṭā diśati bhavad ārādhana-vidhiḿ
yathā mātur vāṇī smṛtir api tathā vakti bhaginī
purāṇādyā ye vā sahaja-nivahās te tad-anugā
ataḥ satyaḿ jñātaḿ mura-hara bhavān eva śaraṇam
The revealed writings, like a mother, when are asked about the object of veneration- śruti mātā pṛṣṭā vidhiḿ ārādhana
mention You (Krişna) - diśati bhavad
as a mother instructs (her children) - yathā mātur vāṇī
The writings that revealed the historic deeds (regarding the avatars of the Supreme Lord and His devotees) – smṛti
like a sister say the same - bhaginī vakti tathā
and thus led by the Puranas, like brother and sister – ataḥ purāṇādyā ye vā sahaja-nivahās
followed by these (the revealed scripture – şruti) - te tad anugā
they certainly know the truth - eva satyaḿ jñātaḿ
that you are the shelter, oh the one that killed the Mura demon (Lord Krişna) - bhavān śaraṇam mura-hara
