Magnanimity at its height .

Srila Bhaktisiddanta Sarasvati Goswami Maharaja once  said that he wished for the greatest good  for those who regarded him as their  greatest enemy .

Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu is considered the most magnanimous incarnation of God , He is distributing  something of the understanding and feelings of a  most exalted state of consciousness ,  The most blissful and compassionate consciousness of the Supreme Goddess of fortune , Her inner state of mind ,  along with the supporting consciousness of  Her associates , the manjaris.  This supremely good fortune is an unlimited and tumultuous ocean of the Love , the love between Radha and Krishna . It is said that just one drop of this ocean of love  can inundate the entire universe.  This wonderful gift for mankind can be seen in this way ….. It’s like offering the greatest of fortune descending from the highest plane from a spiritual realm and then  freely distributing it to the most fallen and degraded persons  , it’s called  causeless mercy , or mercy above justice ,

The highest planes  of spiritual truths have been discussed by Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu in his conversation with Ramananda Roy in the Caitanya Caritamrta , along with the progressive paths that lead  to it .

If we examine the all the relative paths that lead to the most magnanimous path  offered by Mahāprabhu,  we will find they are all useful tools and each one is valuable in its own right , but nevertheless , we should  set for  ourselves the highest  spiritual goal and the greatest of all expectations in this  life ,  and this is  being miraculously offered to one and  all  , both those qualified to receive it and those who are not . These trancendental mysteries are  understood only  by coming into the association of those who have tasted the sweetness that Mahaprabhu  is distributing,  just one moments association is enough to connect us .

To understand this process , one should read and understand the Caitanya Caritamrita , AC BHAKTIVEDANTA SWAMI has translated it and given explanations .
