Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura
Gauḍīya
Translation
O devatās, my sons! When the two were falling from the abode of the Lord, a great cry of disappointment arose from the best of airplanes on Satyaloka.
O devatās (putrakāḥ)! When they fell from the place of the Lord (vikuṇḥta-dhiṣanāt), in the best airplanes from Satyaloka (vimānāgryeṣu), a cry was heard.
Personal Guidance
When Jaya and Vijaya fall, even the demigods in their airplanes roar in disappointment. The fall of associates of the Lord is felt cosmically. We are part of communities whose grief and joy are not private.
Reflection Questions
- Whose fall has caused me real cosmic-scale grief, and what did I do about it?
- How am I tied into a community that feels collectively when one member falls?
