When Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu took to the sannyāsa ashram , He immediately desired to go to Vrndavana, the most Holy place in the Spirtual world where spontaneous love for Krishna is forever and increasingly experienced. When Krishna decends to the material realms He decends along with His eternal abode , He is absolute, and thus Krishna’s abode is non different from Krishna .One should understand Vrndavana currently manifested in North India is a spiritual realm , one in whom the trancendental sounds of the Srimad Bhagavatam and Krishna’s names have appeared can realise these realms, Vrndavana is in that way is a state of a spiritual mind .
Sri Caitanya Mahāprabhu was setting the perfect example everyone should visit Sri Vrndavana Dharma, even though it has been described by our Gaudia Vaisnava acaryas ,and can be , refered to as a state of mind . Wherever Mahāprabhu or a pure devotee is , is Vrndavana.
Once, when Lord Siva appeared to disrespect his father in law Daksya , Lord Siva’s wife asked him why he had done so . Lord Siva replied that it had not been deliberately done and that he had not stood up to show respect to Daksya because Lord Siva said , “I am always absorbed in Krishna ,” . This is called Suddha Satva consciousness , pure trancendental goodness on a super subjective spiritual plane . This can be achieved by hearing pure sound called Sabdha Brahman coming from pure devotees .The Holy names and the Srimad Bhagavatam are such sound , by contact with such spiritually pure sound, the impure are purified. The sun can dry up and purify the stools of animals.
In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna speaks of different ways of acquiring different sorts of knowledge . Either from one’s own limited senses , including the mind and intelligence , which will limited knowledge or acceptance of others’ knowledge and experiences ,which can also be limited and limiting . Krishna also speaks of knowledge of the impersonal spiritual light , this light of Bramhajyoti brings a kind of relief and release from all troubles . Srila Jiva Goswami compares that kind of impersonal liberation to a satisfying deep sleep.
The highest realm of spiritual knowledge Krishna says decends by grace when one practices devotion to God , it is graced by Krishna’s pure representatives who experience pure Bhakti. That is Suddha Satva knowledge. The pure representatives are able to vibrate pure trancendental sound with love .The consciousness that Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Lord Siva had demonstrated. It can be received from the perfect source , someone who is self realised and has love and knowledge of God , and someone who understands the applications of the Vedas . Such a person has heard pure sound , accepted pure sound, and vibrates pure sound .
We should also note from Krishna’s pure spiritual subjective thinking that the whole material universe has been born . It’s a learning and educational experience .It’s something we wanted that God is facilitating.
