4 Reasons for Mahaprabhus advent1stInternal reason was to taste Himself unnatta ujjvala (highest, brilliantly shinning)rasa.2nd Internal reason to answer the loud calling of Sri Advaita Acarya.This is clearly written (by Srila Rupa Goswami) in the 4th verse Adi Lila chap.1 of C.C.

Resplendent with the radiance of molten gold, He has appeared in theAge of Kali by His causeless mercy to bestow what has not been given for a very long time --- manjarbhva, the service of rmat Rdhik as Her confidential maidservant.

These are the Internal reasons.************

Now, external1st external reason is to bestow service to this mood upon all jivas (sva-bhakti-sriyam) which is service(manjari bhava) to Krsnas own (sva) bhakti (Sri Radha) which is service (manjari bhava) to Krsnas own(sva) bhakti (Sri Radha)

2ndexternal reason to establish the Yuga dharma of nama sankirtan.This is why He came to this world

The next verse, by Srila Krsna dasa Kaviraja, is

Mahaprabhus identity(CC.Adi Lila 1.5)

The loving affairs of r Rdh and Ka are transcendental manifestations of the Lords internapleasure-giving potency. Although Rdh and Ka are one in Their identity, They separatedThemselves eternally.

I bow down to Him, who has manifested Himself with the sentiment and complexion ofrmat Rdhr although He is Ka Himself. Mahaprabhu is none other than Sri Krsna Himself

First Radha manifested from His left side. They are one soul. Now again They have become one as SrMahaprabhu.************

3 desires that Mahaprabhu wanted to fulfillThe following verse from CC. reveals this special secret.

1) Desiring to understand the glory (mahima) of Rdhrs love,2) The wonderful, astonishing qualities (dbhuta-madhurim) in Him that She alonerelishes through Her love,3) and the happiness (saukhya) She feels when She realizes the sweetness (madanubhavata) of Hislove for Her,The Supreme Lord Hari, richly endowed with Her emotions, appeared from the womb of rmat ac-dev, as the moon appeared from the ocean.So for us to understand and try and remember these 4 reasons for His descent and His 3 remarkabledesires alone can carry us very deeply towards connecting with Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

1) What is the Glory of Radhas love?Prema Viccityaat Prema Sarrova.

1) Krsna is full spiritual truth and joy but Radha makes Him mad.2) Strength of Radhas love overwhelms Krsna.3) Radha Teacher and Krsna dancing pupil.4) What pleasure in Krsna, Radha experiences by 10 million times.5) Krsna is the abode of contradiction. Radha full of similar contradictions.6) Radhas love is all pervading, no room to expand. Still it expands.7) Nothing is greater than Her love, and totally devoid of pride. (sign of greatness)

(Krsna) My mind races to taste Radhas love

2) Wonderful qualities in Him that She alone relishes1) Only Radha tastes Krsnas infinite sweetness by the strength of Her love.2) Radhas love is pure like a mirror, increases every moment. My sweetness has no room to expand yetit shines in front of that morror in newer and newer beauty. There is constant competition between Mysweetness and Radhas love it increases not knowing defeat.3) Who can manifest greater sweetness than Me, never experienced before. When I see this sweetness ina jeweled columnbI want to enjoy it, like Radha does.4) Krsna attracts and thrills all, yet He is attracted by Radha. Krsnas sorrow is that he does not enjoyHis own beauty.
