Rati Prema Sneha Mana Pranaya

Rupanuga Bhajana Darpana Song 10

1

rati prema sneha māna praṇaya o
rāgākhyāna anurāga bhāba ei sāta
rati jata gāḍha hoya krame sapta
nāma loya sthāyī bhāba sadā abadāta

Prema (general ecstatic love for the Personality of Godhead)

2

snehādi je bhāba choya prema nāme
paricoya sādhāraṇa janera nikaṭe je
bhāba kṛṣṇete jāṅra sei bhābe kṛṣṇa
tāṅra e rahasya rase nitya baṭe

The above mentioned symptoms are all-together known as prema (love of Godhead). According to the particular ecstatic emotions that one develops for Krsna, then to that degree Krsna reciprocates, and this level of secret mellow indeed continues eternally.

3

bhakta-citta-siṁhāsana ta'te upabiṣṭa
hana sthāyī bhāba sarba-bhāba-rāja
hlādinī je para śakti tāṅrasāra
śuddha-bhakti bhāba-rūpe tāṅhāra birāja

Being seated on the throne of the devotee's heart, the stayi bhava behaves like the King of all ecstasies. Rooted in the hladini pleasure potency, whose distilled extract is pure devotional service and, it is conspicuously present in the form of transcendental emotional ecstasies.

4

bibhābādi bhāba-gaṇe nijāyatte
ānayane korena ye rasera prokāśa rasa
nityānanda-tattwa nitya-siddha
sāra-sattwa jība-citte tāhāra bikāśa

By bringing the four principles of ecstasy, namely vibhava, anubhava, sattvika, and sancari under its control, the hladini manifests all mellows. These mellows are the eternal truth of bliss, eternally perfect, the best state of purified existence; all this displays itself widening and blooming within the core of the spirit soul's heart.
