Beauty for Love’s Sake

August 1, 2014

 

Lover over Beauty

apāraṁ kasyāpi praṇayi-jana-vṛndasya kutukī
rasa-stomaṁ hṛtvā madhuram upabhoktuṁ kam api yaḥ
rucaṁ svām āvavre dyutim iha tadīyāṁ prakaṭayan
sa devaś caitanyākṛtir atitarāṁ naḥ kṛpayatu

“Lord Kṛṣṇa desired to taste the limitless nectarean mellows of the love possessed by one of His multitude of loving damsels – Śrīmatī Rādhārānī – , and so He has assumed the form of Lord Chaitanya. He has tasted that love while hiding His own dark complexion with Her effulgent golden luster. May that Lord Chaitanya confer upon us His grace.”

 ~ from the Stava-mālā of Śrīla Rūpa Gosvāmī.

Love conquering Beauty is the essence of Bhakti
