- If I have made any errors in describing the great souls mentioned in this book, I beg those great personalities to please forgive me.
Neither Lord Brahma, Lord Siva, nor Lord Ananta Sesa are able to describe completely the exalted virtues of those great souls.
- I have written this book in such a way that the Mimamsakas, false logicians, and others who relish dry philosophical debate will not be able to understand it, even with the greatest endeavor.
Only the devotees, who are learned in the rasa-sastras, and who continually take shelter of Lord Caitanya’s lotus feet, will be able to understand this book properly. I have written this book for them.
- I pray that this book I have written, the Sri Gaura-ganoddesa-dipika, may shine in the homes of the blissful devotees of the Lord.
- This book was written in the year 1498 of the Saka era[1].
I pray that those great devotees whose minds are immersed in the nectar of Lord Caitanyacandra’s pastimes may read this book critically and correct all its faults.
