Thank You very much His Grace Nanda Gopa Prabhu jī for publishing this particular verse from Śrī Caitanya-Caritāmṛta online. It helped me in my Research for the exact value of Vedic standard time unit "Lava" according to the Śrīla Prabhupāda jī. I am going to glorify the Producer, thpe Director and a ISKCON Devotee turned Enterpreneur, Mr. Bhavya Taneja jī, the founder of "Grafix Mistri" & who publishes the Podcasts on Grafix Mistri YT channel. Recently, Mr. Ashwin Kumar jī ( Honourable Director ) and Mrs. Shilpaa Dhawan jī ( Honourable Head Producer ) of "Mahavatar Narsimha" animated movie Presented by "Hombale Films" in Association with "Kleem Productions", appeared with Mr. Bhavya Taneja jī for a Podcast on their journey of not only the creation of this movie but the sacrifices, failure and their Spiritual Revelations while doing this project. I will be now, able to offer my humble glorification in the comment section of that podcast.

But, before them, All Glories to All Devotees & the One specific Devotee Personality ( His Grace Nanda Gopa Prabhu Jī ) who published this Verse, the Translation and the Purport by Śrīla Prabhupāda jī on ISKCON Chowpatty Media.

My humble obeisances to His Grace Nanda Gopa Prabhu jī & All of You, Dear Devotees who constantly remain engaged in serving their Spiritual Master and the Founder-Ācārya of ISKCON, His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda jī, the entire guru-paramparā, the ācāryas & this saṅkīrtana movement of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu along with His dear associates, namely Śrī Nityānanda Rāma Jī, Śrī Advaita Ācārya Jī, Śrī Gadādhara Paṇḍita Jī, Śrī Śrīvāsa Ṭhākura Jī & the entire family of countless associates, the devotees of Lord Śrī Gaurāṅga.

The dear Devotees who lived an austere life without proper electricity & cramped rooms, serving the Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Gopīnātha jī with whatever they can arrange to the best of their efforts, who brought them from the Jaipur to Mumbai with full awe & reverence. All Glories, All Glories & All Glories to Each & Every Devotee of that humble initial times of ISKCON CHOWPATTY!

All Glories to those countless intimate and very confidential pastimes including the first ever pastime when Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Gopīnātha jī were getting installed, after opening the curtains of the Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Gopīnātha jī, the entire temple hall got flooded with unearthly, ethereal and divine fragrance, where every devotee started crying, falling in ecstasy including the Pūjārī jī and some devotees noticed the divine pearls of tears rolling down the transcendental cheeks of Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī & the pastime where Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Gopīnātha jī were talking with H.H. Radhanātha Swāmī Mahārāja jī & were reciprocating his PURE LOVE when he offered a modest plate of Bhoga to them & prayed that He doesn't have anything opulent to offer to Their Lordships.

All Glories To The ISKCON DESIRE TREE, an initiative who changed the lives of countless souls through their self-less and free service to people like me!
