Gauḍīya Ācāryas

Viśvanātha Cakravartī Ṭhākura Gauḍīya

Translation

Accompanied by the followers of Śiva, who made a tumultuous sound, making a thundering sound with his foot ornaments, and raising a trident which was the death for death itself, he hurried to the sacrifice. The trident was like death (antakam) for death itself (jagad-antaka). On his two feet he had ornaments which made a thunderous noise (ghoṣaṇa).

Personal Guidance

Vīrabhadra's trident was fearful enough to kill even death — when divine force arrives, no level of opposition can stand. Don't imagine that escape strategies will help when the Lord moves against your project.

Reflection Questions

What escape strategy am I trusting in instead of simply aligning with the Lord?
Where is my project running on momentum that the Lord may already be ending?
