This book has been compiled from the lectures of His Divine Grace Om Vishnupad Srila Bhakti Raksak Sridhar Dev-Goswami Maharaj and found a very special place in the heart of its author to the extent that His Divine Grace remarked it was his favourite English language publication. It is dedicated to the life and precepts of Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu, the most magnanimous and peculiar incarnation of Godhead. The text presented here is the second edition of the book, `as it is`, without amendments or edits.

`Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu has taught us that separation is the highest principle in divinity. Just as the most intense conception of ecstasy is association with Krishna, the most intense conception of pain is separation from Krishna. Yet the pain felt from Krishna`s separation is far more intense than the ecstasy felt from His association. Sriman Mahaprabhu says, `Can`t you understand the painful situation you are in? Your senses must have all been destroyed? Otherwise you would have died from the pain of separation from Krishna. It is inconceivable. We belong to Him wholesale. He is all in all to us, but we can`t see Him. We are forcibly separated from Him. How can we tolerate this?"

Krsna`s pastimes are the essence of nectar.
O dear devotees, please come!
Ask the swan of your mind to swim in the nectar lake of the Life and Precepts of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu
There, hundreds of streams of that nectar are flowing in all directions.
