Sarvabhauma Sataka — Srila Sarvabhauma Bhattacharya

One Hundred Magnanimous Verses Glorifying Sriman Mahaprabhu (C)

Verse 51
The most sinful who are caught between the torments of pains and false pleasures such as gambling, illicit sex life, material intoxication, and meat eating, are quickly purified by the transcendental arrow of the holy name specifically aimed by the erudite mouth of Gaura. Lord Chaitanya is the universe within every universe and is the controller of everyone’s spiritual progress into the cosmos of ever fresh bhakti.
Verse 52
Solely desiring to teach about the Name, He befriends those who have a similarly deep attraction to the sound which came before Om. His bright appearance is supremely sweet because of being eternally relishable or enjoyable. Enchanting everyone with one glance of eternal splendor, His words are very cooling to the soul burnt asunder by the rage of mundane terrestrial forms of Shiva.
Verse 53
He is most compassionate because of His choice to eternally descend through His transcendental sound vibration whenever it is accepted as a friend. Causing the cosmic manifestation to implode upon itself when His body starts to shiver with the speed of Shiva’s exhausting rage, He is the only giver of devotional love because of being the sole living entity to taste it more than once. Best among the dancers, may He kindly dance upon my heart.
Verse 54
The scintillating moods of prema exhibited by Gauranga perfectly exemplified the teachings of the Vedas, thus defeating the need to study the worship of mundane elemental gods who are more than puffed up. The Source of all incarnations, He burns to ashes the rotting bodies of former so called demigods and rulers, controllers, and idol makers, by giving them a new spiritual body made of the vibrations of prema. Always immersed in pastimes of samadhi with His friends, He is the best of dancers for a divine reason.
Verse 55
Incomparable and hard to find an exact duplicate like all other created things, He relishes transcendental rasas as a favorite hobby of sorts. Every living entity falls into trance upon seeing Him in His infinity of play. Of the most profound degree of pure goodness, who can beat Him in His dance of love in separation?
Verse 56
His tears, accentuated by eyes which are as large as infinite universes, release all jiva souls from the prison house that is liberation and bondage. Agitating thousands upon thousands of goddesses of fortune with His transcendental good looks, may He bless me to dance with Him upon a full moon night.
Verse 57
Gaurachandra is now sharing His essence with all natures, whether fallen or care free. His nectar thus effectively wipes out the plague of ignorance of spiritual realization that has now become fashionable to blindly believe in. The warrior of God for the poor and destitute, He is the ultimate realm of transcendentally true realism. The seer within the realm of Vraja is reminded of His original sight upon seeing the self same Lord popularizing the hare krsna maha mantra.
Verse 58
Lord Chaitanya is the crown resting upon the heads of all knowers of transcendental mellows, and is thus the center of the gravity of rasa. Bewildered by Krishna’s name, His qualities are deeper than more oceans that are countable by the best of minds. Extremely sobering and grave, there is no comparison to His beautiful conceptions of reality.
Verse 59
A fruit of wonder for everyone who tastes His nectar form by chanting and serving His lotus feet, everything about Him is as fresh as a lotus flower.
Verse 60
He brings an end to the age of Kali by being the essence of loving dealings with all the peoples of the world. The supreme glory, there is no other glory worth counting on.
The Lord always returns through His bona fide and transcendentally clean representatives
Verse 61
God is the ultimate grace. Making everything that He adorns Himself in into an object of some jiva soul’s liberation, even once favorably looking upon the descriptions of Godhead’s personality is enough to ensure a total change of heart upon awakening to the personal beauty of the untouchable and uncontaminated Highest Absolute Realization of Eternal Krishna Consciousness.
Verse 62
Converting everyone left and right by the sheer graciousness of His presence, the holy name has never been so popular as it is now. Every single jiva seen sporting a garland of His names and a Vaishnava tilaka that is as fresh as the perspiring blades of grass, O Lord Hari, continue to lead us out of the consciousness of blasphemy.
Verse 63
Praying to Krishna for the sake of manifesting His mercy, He prays thus, “O ocean of eternity! Please kindly remove the living entities who are unnecessarily burning in the mode of ignorance that is the forest fire of material life. Mercifully distribute Your personal wealth of prema bhakti.” Only Sacinandana can praise God in this way while praying to Him.
Verse 64
Wanting to quickly awaken the morose and sullen living entities of Kali yuga, no longer frightened are they who enthusiastically take to chanting the name of God while playing musical instruments and dancing in a frenzy of ecstatic emotions conductive to self realization.
Verse 65
Gaurasundara, instructing His disciples, He commands them to personally install Radha Krishna deities in every household and hut in order to relish the sight of Govinda’s three fold bending form.
