So Prabhupada explained that when we offer prasadam, we offer it to our guru, who offers to his guru, who offers to his guru, who offers to his guru, like this. It goes on until it is offered to Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu.

Lord Caitanya offers to Radha and Krsna. Radha and Krsna take the prasadam, then it is offered down again. Now everybody down the disciplic line accepts the maha-prasadam .

So, in this way, all the spiritual masters are taking the maha-prasadam until it comes to us.

So we get super maha-maha-maha-prasadam that is tasted by so many spiritual masters! ”

A pure devotee acts simply for the satisfaction of Lord Krishna. For the satisfaction of Krishna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead, the devotee is prepared to do anything—even to accept birth again in the material world if there is devotional service the Lord desires of the devotee in this miserable place. One type of austerity is the austerity of cooperating together with other devotees for performing a service which is dear to the Lord.

“A pure devotee acts simply for the satisfaction of Lord Krishna.

One type of austerity is the austerity of cooperating together with other devotees for performing a service which is dear to the Lord.”

In this verse, the devotee has been instructed to engage in widespread sankirtan. For both types of sankirtana, either the congregational chanting or the distribution of transcendental literatures, a cooperation or team-work is required .

“Book Sankirtana” requires that books be written, edited, published, shipped and distributed. To achieve this, many people must cooperate together, working as a team. Similarly ” Chanting Sankirtana” with mrdanga drums and karatalas requires the cooperation of all participants.

Caitanya Mahaprabhu especially appreciated His devotees cooperating for the purpose of spreading the glories of His holy name.
